Re: [NTG-context] problem with Persian feature
Hi Mingranina, As Wolfgang said, if I fix the name of the key in \setmainfont (from « feature » to « features », see below), then your test works fine here (using Mac OS X 10.8.4, and ConTeXt ver: 2013.08.07 14:40 MKIV beta fmt: 2013.8.7). By the way in mkiv you don't need to add \enableregime[utf-8]: by default ConTeXt uses utf-8. \definefontfeature [persian] [mode=node,language=dflt,script=arab, init=yes,medi=yes,fina=yes,isol=yes,liga=yes,dlig=yes,rlig=yes,clig=yes, mark=yes,mkmk=yes,kern=yes,curs=yes] \usemodule[simplefonts] \setmainfont[arial][features=persian] %% ^^ \mainlanguage[pe] \setupbodyfont[arial,12pt] \starttext \pagedir TRT\bodydir TRT\pardir TRT\textdir TRT این یک آزمایش است. \pagedir TLT\bodydir TLT\pardir TLT\textdir TLT This is a test. \stoptext Best regards: OK On 7 août 2013, at 12:38, Mingranina Gingranina mingran...@gmail.com wrote: Dear Hans, Hello, Thank you very much for your reply.
