Hi Peter,
And here are my problems:
1.) I get bold sc font, but the normal \sc is now the normal font.
\sc and \bf are defined at the same level in ConTeXt, so they (normally)
exclude each other. My guess is that it is very unlikely that this will
be fixed, but I assume it would be possible to do something using the
\variants mechanism (note: I am not sure and would not know how)
thi sis an option indeed; the other method is just to define an
additional typeface
\definetypeface[mainface].
\definetypeface[smallface].
\definetypeface[osface].
andthen do things like \smallface\bf
typeface switching is rather efficient

This is implemented at http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Pseudo_Small_Caps

My guess is that it is very unlikely that this will be fixed, but ... make that be changed, but .. Because it is not a bug, the behaviour is intentional. Yes, and it's what variants were intended to address, to stack font switching behaviour on top of known shapes and weights. Old Style sometimes exists in more than regular shapes. Small Caps appear in bold and sometimes even italics versions. (Variants were also to get at fonts that wouldn't normally have a style associated with them, as well.) adam -- =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Adam T.

Latin Modern doesn't have a bold small caps (yet?), I think.
Yes. I've just made a reference to my message from 5th December with the
subject problems with bold small caps. Here it is (2/4 problems already
solved):
I would like to get bold small caps, here is my test-file:
\enableregime[il1]
\definebodyfont [12pt] [sc] [bf=ecxc1200]
\definebodyfont [11pt] [sc] [bf=ecxc1100]
\definebodyfont [10pt] [sc] [bf=ecxc1000]
\definebodyfont [9pt] [sc] [bf=ecxc0900]
\definebodyfont [8pt] [sc] [bf=ecxc0800]
\starttext
{\sc Normal and \bf bold Small-Caps. Accents: àÉßöÜ}
\stoptext
And here are my problems:
1.) I get bold sc font, but the normal \sc is now the normal font.
2.) Accented characters are not correct.
Cheers, Peter

[NTG-context] problems with bold small caps
Hello,
I would like to get bold small caps, here is my test-file:
\enableregime[il1]
\definebodyfont [12pt] [sc] [bf=ecxc1200]
\definebodyfont [11pt] [sc] [bf=ecxc1100]
\definebodyfont [10pt] [sc] [bf=ecxc1000]
\definebodyfont [9pt] [sc] [bf=ecxc0900]
\definebodyfont [8pt] [sc] [bf=ecxc0800]
\starttext
{\sc Normal and \bf bold Small-Caps. Accents: àÉßöÜ}
\stoptext
And here are my problems:
1.) I get bold sc font, but the normal \sc is now the normal font.
2.) It works only with dvi-output, with pdf I get:
kpathsea: Running mktexpk --mfmode / --bdpi 72 --mag 1+0/72 --dpi 72 ecxc1200
mktexpk: Mismatched mode ljfzzz and resolution 72; ignoring mode.
mktexpk: Can't guess mode for 72 dpi devices.
mktexpk: Use a config file, or update me.
kpathsea: Appending font creation commands to missfont.log.
Where should I tell pdfetex the right resolution?
3.) Accented characters are not correct.
4.) Could there be native support for bold small caps in the distribution?
TIA for any help!
Cheers, Peter
