Re: [NTG-context] Fonts and other tips for thesis and other academic works

2008-04-21 Thread Matija Šuklje
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?


Cheers,
Matija

2008/4/16, Suno Ano [EMAIL PROTECTED]:
  You want to pick a font family which has entire support for mathematical
  glyphs like for example
   - Computer Modern Roman or

That's Latin Modern (LM) nowadays.

   - Lucida Bright

AFAIK there are also math fonts for Palatino (px), Times (tx?),
Helvetica (hx? and commercial) and the Euler fonts that work with
different serif fonts.
And soon (I hope) we'll get math support for the TeXGyre fonts as well.

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).

Greetlings, Hraban

 Would you mind translating your comments into English? That would help
 others (including me) a lot! Tia :-)

Will do as soon as I can. 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. Perhaps I should also include a .pdf (and 
source files) as a download, so people can see how it looks like.

 Take a look at
 http://www.pragma-ade.com/general/manuals/cont-eni.pdf -- chapter 5

 You want to pick a font family which has entire support for mathematical
 glyphs like for example
  - Computer Modern Roman or
  - Lucia Bright

Thanks, will take notice of it. I suppose these don't come out-of-the-box, or 
do they?

Cheers,
Matija

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).

Latin Modern has a manual with Examples from the Fonts, not sure if
the other fonts include also one.

The main site seems to be down.
But you can see them here :
Schola : http://www.tug.dk/FontCatalogue/tgschola/
Heros : http://www.tug.dk/FontCatalogue/tgheros/

And with a fontviewer in the contex path :
