I'm having trouble using project structure and font loading together in MkIV. Here's how the problem arises.
As Aditya and Wolfgang have pointed out, the recommended way to set up fonts in MkIV is before \starttext or \startcomponent. For a component, the setups usually go in an environment file that is referenced by the project file, and the project file is mentioned with a \project, e.g. \startcomponent test \project testproject \input knuth \stopcomponent However, the \project line has to come *after* \startcomponent. If it comes before \startcomponent, then context doesn't process the component file at all, and no PDF file is generated. An example: \project testproject \startcomponent test \input knuth \stopcomponent (with testproject.tex containing \startproject blah \stopproject) A workaround is to replace the \project line with \environment env where env is what testproject would have included anyway. e.g. \environment env \startcomponent test \input knuth \stopcomponent Here, env.tex has all the setups including the font setups (and one would do the same in the product file, i.e. in the file that includes the components, by putting "\environment env" before the \startproduct). The first problem is that it seems some of the functionality of products, projects, and components is lost. But maybe that's a matter of taste. Another problem is that env.tex doesn't know that one is compiling a product or component---thus, the system modes *product and *component are not defined while reading env.tex. Is there another way of doing project structure that I am missing? My update to the wiki page on project structure (on putting \project before \startcomponent) seems to be wrong, and I'll fix it once I understand what to do! -Sanjoy ___________________________________________________________________________________ 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 ___________________________________________________________________________________
