Thank you very much to both of you! This works perfectly and just the way I wanted. I have some other questions, but I have to write exact specification(s) first. (The whole documentation for implementing 3D features is approximately "read the cryptic implementation in PostScript, figure out what it does and implement it that way in your terminal". I hate that, but I'll try to come through it. I'll report as soon as there will be something functional available.)

[NTG-context] Fonts problems
Good afternoon. I apologize that I bother you once more, but I'm getting desperate. :-( I have still problem with fonts in ConTeXt---perhaps I'm not able to install it well. I use ConTeXt ver: 2006.02.03 21:00, pdfeTeX, Version 3.141592-1.21a-2.2 (Web2C 7.5.4), tetex-3.0-13 under SuSE Linux 9.2 (the tetex is grabbed from Suse 9.3). I tried to copy all files where I thought they should have been, texhashed, and build formats. Now, some things work, but not all of them, and not in an expected way. Problem 1: I expect that a following file should typeset "tufte" in Latin Modern font. \setupoutput[pdf] \starttext \input tufte \stoptext ConTeXt loads some map files (/usr/share/texmf/fonts/map /dvips/context/original-empty.map}{/usr/share/texmf/fonts/map/dvips/context/ori ginal-base.map}{/usr/share/texmf/fonts/map/dvips/context/ec-public-lm.map}{/usr /share/texmf/fonts/map/dvips/context/ec-base.map}{/usr/share/texmf/fonts/map/dv ips/context/8r-base.map}{/usr/share/texmf/fonts/map/dvips/context/t5-base.map}{ /usr/share/texmf/fonts/map/pdftex/context/original-ams-base.map}{/usr/share/tex mf/fonts/map/dvips/context/original-ams-euler.map}{/usr/share/texmf/fonts/map/d vips/context/original-public-lm.map}), but it clearly isn't able to find the right one, since it writes this error message: kpathsea: Running mktexpk --mfmode / --bdpi 72 --mag 1+0/72 --dpi 72 ec-lmr12 mktexpk: don't know how to create bitmap font for ec-lmr12. kpathsea: Appending font creation commands to missfont.log. ) Warning: pdfetex (file ec-lmr12): Font ec-lmr12 at 72 not found I can correct it when I add one more file: \loadmapfile[psclean.map] But I was told that I should omit this line. What's the problem? How can I correct it? Problem 2: Let's suppose I add into the previous file this B\"oh-Bawerk then the letter \"o is missing (a white space is on its place). Isn't there a bug in the Latin modern fonts/virtual fonts/metrics, or whatever? Moreover, gv views the hyphen over the "h" and "B" letters. (Acrobat Reader 7 view it all right.) How is that possible. Problem 3: Some fonts are not used properly. The following file \setupoutput[pdf] \loadmapfile[psclean.map] \usetypescript[ppl] % working pos \switchtobodyfont[ppl,10pt] \starttext \input tufte\par \stoptext works well. It works even if I change "pos" to "ppl", "ptm", "phv", or "tim". It works even when changed to "pcr", but the text is ragged. When changed to "con", "bookman", or "iwona", it does nothing---the text is typeset in Latin Modern. When changed to "ant", I get this error message: kpathsea: Running mktextfm sy-anttrz /usr/share/texmf/web2c/mktexnam: Could not map typeface abbreviation y- for sy-anttrz. /usr/share/texmf/web2c/mktexnam: Need to update /usr/share/texmf/fonts/map/fontname/special.map? mktextfm: Running mf-nowin -progname=mf \mode:=ljfour; mag:=1; nonstopmode; input sy-anttrz This is METAFONT, Version 2.71828 (Web2C 7.5.4) kpathsea: Running mktexmf sy-anttrz ! I can't find file `sy-anttrz'. I think I have installed all these fonts (instead of Adobe fonts I have URW ones). What's wrong. Problem 4: From what afm files were the tfm metrics for Times, Helvetica, and Palatino generated? Accents are positioned in a strange way and after a tquoteright is a strange hole (bad kerning). A long time ago I've generated myself tfm metrics from afm files of URW fonts, and they look much better. Were these afm files used, or were used some afm metrics of fonts that do not include accented letter, i.e. are those letters just TeX-based composites? Problem 5: How can I switch back to CS fonts? (Well, I know I bother you all, but I still do not like Latin Modern fonts.) :-( I thought that something like this could work, but it doesn't: \setupoutput[pdf] \loadmapfile[psclean.map] \loadmapfile[/usr/share/texmf/dvips/context/original-public-csr.map] \starttypescript [serif] [computer-modern] [il2] \definefontsynonym [cmb10][csb10][encoding=il2] \definefontsynonym [cmbsy10] [csbsy10] [encoding=il2] ... \stoptypescript \usetypescript[computer-modern][il2] \switchtobodyfont[computer-modern,10pt] \starttext \input tufte \stoptext How can I do it?
