It scales with the current font size. \usesymbols[mvs] \setupsymbolset[martinvogel 2] \starttext \symbol[ShortForty] {\tfd\symbol[ShortForty]} \stoptext > - Where the symbol set name "martinvogel 2" comes from?

The symbols are just put in named groups and “martinvogel 2” is the name of one of these groups (there is also “martinvogel 1”, don’t know how created these names). When you define a symbol you can set the name as \definesymbol[<name>]{<symbol>} or out it in a category with \definesymbol[<category>][<name>]{<symbol>} When you have many symbols which you want to put in a category you can say \startsymbolset [<category>] \definesymbol[<name 1>]{<symbol 1>} \definesymbol[<name 2>]{<symbol 2>} \stopsymbolset and omit the first argument. To print a symbol from this symbolset you have to write \symbol[<category>][<name>] but when you add \setupsymbolset[<category>] to your document ConTeXt will search in this symbol set even when you write only \symbol[<name>] Wolfgang ___________________________________________________________________________________ If your question is of interest to others as well, please add an entry to the Wiki! maillist : ntg-context@ntg.nl / http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context webpage : http://www.pragma-ade.nl / http://tex.aanhet.net archive : http://foundry.supelec.fr/projects/contextrev/ wiki : http://contextgarden.net ___________________________________________________________________________________
