[NTG-context] How to use and not embed the PdfBase14 fonts?
Hi all! I want to generate PDF documents that use the standard PDF fonts (Helvetica, Times-Roman, and Courier) and not to embed these fonts. With my former installation (TexLive-2003 and a ConText distribution of last autumn) this was possible by using the following lines in the praeambel: \usetypescript[adobekb][texnansi] \usetypescript[postscript][texnansi] \setupbodyfont[postscript,ss,13pt] (In addition, I had to configure pdfTeX by updmap --setoption pdftexDownloadBase14 false). After I upgraded to TexLive-2004 this does no longer work! I found that the typescript adobekb was replaced by type-akb. Yet, the encoding texnansi seems no longer to be available (Metafont complains that it can not find: texnansi-utmr8a). Changing the encoding to ec that still is available yields: \usetypescript[type-akb][ec] \usetypescript[postscript][ec] \setupbodyfont[postscript,ss,13pt] Yet, using these lines in the praeambel results in a document that uses the NimbusSanL-Regu font, that clearly has to be embedded. Does anyone know how the standard PDF fonts can be used while not being embedded? Thanks for your attention, Stefan ___ ntg-context mailing list ntg-context@ntg.nl http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context

Yet, the encoding texnansi seems no longer to be available (Metafont complains that it can not find: texnansi-utmr8a). Changing the encoding to ec that still is available yields: texnansi tfm files are not distributed (actually, what gets distributed is some mix of encodings) so you need to generate them using texfont \usetypescript[type-akb][ec] \usetypescript[postscript][ec] \setupbodyfont[postscript,ss,13pt] Yet, using these lines in the praeambel results in a document that uses the NimbusSanL-Regu font, that clearly has to be embedded. you can make a private map file, say myfonts.map, and load that one with \loadmapfile[myfonts.map] lines with as first char an '=' will replace other map entries, so that way you can overrule defaults Does anyone know how the standard PDF fonts can be used while not being embedded?

But i don't know how this is done in ConTeXt. Regards, Hartmut ___ ntg-context mailing list ntg-context@ntg.nl http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context
