Dear Idris, I may be wrong, but I see it \definefont as remains from MkII in MkIV. (I know that my previous statement comes from my lack of ConTeXt knowledge.) I tend to use a single typeface (maybe with a fallback for Greek glyphs) in my documents. This is much easier to maintain. >> No previous typescript is required (Larabiefont doesn’t have one). > > Yes, SimpleFonts work, but then might as well set the whole document that > way -) This is already ConTeXt core code. BTW, contrary to your fears, it doesn’t set the whole document that way: \definefont[PagellaRegular] [texgyrepagella-regular.otf at 14pt] \definefont[PagellaRegularSmall][texgyrepagella-regular.otf at 12pt] \definefontfamily[nonexisting][rm][TeX Gyre Cursor] \setupbodyfont[helvetica] \setupwhitespace[big] \setuplayout[width=4.5in,height=5.5in,backspace=2in] \setupnotation[footnote][style={\PagellaRegularSmall}, numbercommand=\PagellaRegularSmall] \setupnote [footnote] [textcommand={\setupbodyfont[nonexisting]\high}] \noheaderandfooterlines \starttext \startframedtext[width=4.5in,offset=0pt] \PagellaRegular \startlocalfootnotes Text \startfootnote Note \stopfootnote\ More text \placelocalfootnotes \stoplocalfootnotes \stopframedtext \dorecurse{5}{\input zapf} \stoptext Or use \switchtobodyfont[nonexisting] (if you feel more confortable with it). In any case, both commands work as you’d expect on my computer. >> But for explanations, I’m afraid I’m only an average user :-(. > > Pablo, you are anything but an average user :-) Many thanks for your time > and help. With average user, I mean I don’t fully understand the code that I read (and I cannot write code for ConTeXt [either TeX or Lua]). Otherwise, I would be contributing code to ConTeXt.
