Re: [NTG-context] font size and style

\tf is the switch for the normal upright style and when you have \bf\tfa
the first font switch is just replaced by the second switch.
To get a larger text in bold style you can use \bfa.
\starttext
text {\tfa\bf text} text
text {\bfa text} text
\stoptext

[NTG-context] \doifelseoddpage not working as expected
Dear all,
I need something like \doifelseoddpage, but this does not work as
expected. See below example. You will notice that on page two you
still get the ODD text, with page number 1.
What's going on? Is there a proper way to detect what page I'm on?
Example:
\starttext
\dorecurse{70}{\doifelseoddpage{ODD \currentpage\par}{EVEN \currentpage\par}}
\stoptext
My system:
context --version
mtx-context | ConTeXt Process Management 1.04
mtx-context |
mtx-context | main context file:
/home/berend/context/tex/texmf-context/tex/context/base/mkiv/context.mkiv

[NTG-context] Can ConTeXt write its pdf to a different directory?
My .tex file is in a directory within my working directory. I would like ConTeXt to write its output in the same directory as my .tex file. But it writes to the working directory. This was asked 10 years ago: `tex.stackexchange.com/questions/67928/how-to-set-output-directory-in-context-command` The answer given then was to use: `context filename --result=output-directory/filename` But this doesn't work now.
