The commands in Fonts category

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.)
  • The actual use of fonts within your document is detailed in Fonts/Font Switching:
    • 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...

Deep dive into typescripts

  • 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.
