Re: [NTG-context] Fonts and other tips for thesis and other academic works
OK, but how do I change the font family for the whole document? I noticed that \setupbodyfont[ant] changes it to Antykva Torunska, but with other fonts I have no such luck. Where do I see what to put in the square brackets to enable which font? Or do I have to roll my own?

You should also take a look at Myriad and Minion (Shipped with Adobe Reader) and Microsofts new fonts for Vista (Part of the PowerPoint Viewer 2007) or take a look at the following link (the dutch designer behind the 6th provides a few nice and free fonts). http://www.typografie.info/typoforum/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=4779 > > I'd suggest a readable serif as body font, I like e.g. TeXGyre Schola > > (Century Schoolbook) - it's a bit conservative and ill suited for > > titling sizes - and perhaps a sans-serif for titlings, e.g. LM Sans or > > TeXGyre Heros (Helvetica). > > Thanks for the suggestion. Is there a page where I can preview these fonts? Latin Modern has a manual with Examples from the Fonts, not sure if the other fonts include also one.

Probably this week. When I do I'll make sure to notify you (and others) on the list :) Wow, I didn't think anyone would really have any use for it, since the citation styles are quite specific.
