How-to guides
- Use fonts distributed with ConTeXt
- How to use the 21 provided fonts.
- These are the basics you may want to start with, in 2 or 3 steps, less than 3 minutes.
- Use any other font
- Case 1: Quick "one shot" (< 5min.)
- Case 2: Comprehensive approach (~10min.)
- "Font Switching", or "how-to use the different fonts within your document"
- how to define font size,
- how to use alternative styles like regular / bold / italic / small caps
- how to switch between serif, sans serif, monospaced, or to another fonts with \switchtobodyfont
- how to underline, strike...
- Typescripts examples
- OpenType features for some common options for \definefontfeature like Ligatures
To tidy
- What defines the size in a font ('natural' size. 'design' size)
- How to set up a font family with optical size options A few fonts like Computer Modern are available with optical sizes.
This guide should help to use fonts from Adobe with optical sizes.
- Protrusion (also known as hanging or font handling) is a more subtle typographic effect (2012 need update).
- the source browser for s-fonts- files, that a user can run (to get an example) or use as module for own fonts
- Lua Font Goodies with examples.
Finally, for older content, refering to mkii, we keep a specific zone in the wiki. Work is also need to merge content of Fonts_in_LuaTeX here.
