Hi,
I tried ConTeXt for the first time a couple of days ago and
successfully created a 4 page letter. Yesterday I converted
a 60 page booklet from LaTeX to ConTeXt where is now successfully
compiles (but without lots of formatting that I will need to figure
out how to apply). My problem has to do with using a font
other than the default (CM I guess). Commands such as the following
have no apparent effect:
\setupbodyfont[palatino]
\setupbodyfont[lbr]
Do I need to select some interface to the fonts like I
do in LaTeX when I say
\usepackage{lucidabr}
or do I need to do some something with TeXfont even though
these fonts are already available to MiKTeX for my use with
LaTeX?
I tried to follow the instructions at
http://wiki.contextgarden.net
for making sure MiKTeX knows about ConTeXt. [My MiKTeX came
with the ProTeXt distribution, has been updated to the latest
MiKTeX I believe, and MiKTeX's formats have been updated and
its file name database refreshed.]
I have a reasonably large pile of documentation I have printed
out from www.pragma-ade.com. Pointers to what may be relevant
to this font problem will be appreciated.
Best regards, Dave
