[NTG-context] Math fonts in TeXLive 2012
Hi all, I'm testing some math fonts with ConTeXt in the current TeXLive pretest (2012.05.25 18:21). I'm not sure which are supposed to work with MKIV, but I found typescripts for the following ones in type-imp-*.mkiv which are also included in TeXLive: * Latin Modern * Euler * Asana * Palatino (px) * Times (tx) * Utopia (mathdesign) * Charter (mathdesign) * Garamond (mathdesign) * Antykwa Torunska * Iwona * Kurier * Xits Compiling the example in the attachment I found than Euler and all Mathdesign derivatives are not working. Does anyone know if Millenial will be supported by TeXLive 2012? Also MKII supported Fourier (for Utopia and Schoolbook). What is the status of this font in MKIV? Cheers, Tim P.S.

Not working in what sense? That you don't get the font or that you requested or that you get wrong output? (I never tried to use Mathdesign in ConTeXt, I actually didn't notice that it was even supported.) > Does anyone know if Millenial will be supported by TeXLive 2012? I don't find the font on CTAN.

Euler is working in the 2012.05.26 16:40 Standalone version. The version of ConTeXt in TeX Live is almost the same as in minimals (ok, I didn't check in the version from 26th because I was away for the weekend, if the difference is actually in that version), but I somehow suspect that the font (euler.otf) is missing on CTAN and in TeX Live. Something for Khaled to answer. The font is also being used in Maps and ConTeXt Proceedings, so it would actually be very nice if the font was present in TL. (I find it strange enough that I didn't notice that when playing with ConTeXt Proceedings, but it may be that I was simply using the ConTeXt Distribution or failed to realize that I got the wrong font.) Thank you very much for spotting these.

The font was never done and I'm not very happy with its current state (it was my first attempt at an OpenType math font, now that I learnt much I want to redo it), there were never any releases and thus no upload to CTAN.

Re: [NTG-context] Math fonts in TeXLive 2012
Another weird observation: Kurier is not working at all. Plus, Asana-Math and Xits are not installed as part of ConTeXt scheme. Should I add them? (It's size is 0.5 + 1.5 MB while in tar.xz.) Hans, maybe you could add Tim's example into your testsuite (but each math font should be surrounded with \bgroup...\egroup or start/stop).

(It's size is 0.5 + 1.5 MB while in tar.xz.) If you feel like adding some packages to the ConTeXt scheme, I'd strongly suggest libertineotf. It's one of the best free font around (I believe it's not by chance that they were used on Fonts in ConTeXt and Layouts in ConTeXt), its coverage is *huge* and the typescript is included in the core. It increases the installation size by a 8 MB (I think it's worth of). Ok, not a big deal, because it can be installed, but just my two cents (the same goes ever for the Minimals, anyway... not a big deal but nice to have). -- Marco ___ If your question is of interest to others as well, please add an entry to the Wiki! maillist : ntg-context@ntg.nl / http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context webpage : http://www.pragma-ade.nl / http://tex.aanhet.net archive : http://foundry.supelec.fr/projects/contextrev/ wiki : http://contextgarden.net ___
Re: [NTG-context] Math fonts in TeXLive 2012
Hi Mojca and Khaled,
You're right about Kurier, I've overlooked it. Asana is also not
installed with Standalone.
I've always found it regrettable Fourier is not longer supported in
MKIV, so I hoped Utopia+Mathdesign would be a nice replacement. There
are typescripts for Mathdesign+{Utopia,Charter,Garamond}, but both the
roman font and the math font are not loaded.
Shouldn't we have to support the Type1 version of Euler in TeXLive if
the OTF version won't be included? I missed Fourier but maybe others
will mis Euler when they switch to MKIV.
Regards,
Tim

you only have to make a fourier.lfg file (like px.lfg) .. .actually
there is a fourier-math.lfg file but probably no one used/checked it

euler is a limited set and can therefore only be used in combination
with another math font .. that can be set up with lfg files

This should be fixed for TL (and is most probably easy to do).

It can be installed with
--fonts=Asana-Math
but I'll rewrite some of that code to do font selection.

I believe that it has just never been properly implemented and tested
(which doesn't mean that it couldn't be).

Euler is also used in the magazine ... but of course it is up to
Khaled if he doesn't want to include the font. Khaled - would you at
least be ready to offer tar.xz file (one sufficient for direct
installation into TL) or put it into tlcontrib?
I would find it hard to tell whether MKIV should fall back to Type1
Euler or not, but I'm not sure that the sole lack of font in
distribution justifies this fallback. Even if the font is not perfect,
I don't see any reason why it couldn't be in TeX Live, even if with a
big warning that the metrics might change in future.

Shouldn't we have to support the Type1 version of Euler in TeXLive if the OTF version won't be included? I missed Fourier but maybe others will mis Euler when they switch to MKIV. Having a font as part of the distro is a convinience, but normally, I just add (or git clone or svn checkout) the fonts that I use in $HOME/texmf/fonts/opentype/ and sync $HOME/texmf across computers with dropbox. So, it is not a big deal if a font is not part of TL.

There's still several things to fix, and it would be nice to have some documentation. However, I wouldn't be opposed to the initial public release from 20110819 being used in TeXLive2012.
