Hi all,
I just discovered that the windows pcs in the library have
certain adobe stuff installed that comes with a neat collection
of adobe fonts. So I thought I’d want to use them in context and
prepared a minimals for windows on a usb stick using wine. I
haven’t used windows in ages so I’d like to ask some questions
before I actually start testing.
1. Why is there an mtxrun.exe binary in addition to the lua
script?
because texlua has to be run
2. How large will texmf-cache grow when all the fonts from an
indesign installation are indexed (it’s a small stick and
context resides next to a linux on it)?
indexing is not that much an issue as only partial data is stored
usage will create tma/tmc files (reminds me that I need to add a
configuration option to clear the tma files as they are only there for
tracing purposes)
3. Anything I should be aware of where windows context behaves
differently from linux?
not that I know of
