Dear ConTeXt folks, I want to use Neo Euler (euler-otf) and was wondering if there is an option for `first-setup.sh` to install fonts? What is the recommended way to install fonts? Using a GNU/Linux distribution should I use those tools to install fonts? I read [2], [3] and [4] but could not find a definite way besides copying the files to the corresponding directories. Thanks, Paul [1] https://github.com/khaledhosny/euler-otf [2] http://wiki.contextgarden.net/ConTeXt_Minimals/Structure#fonts [3] http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Fonts [4] http://www.ntg.nl/pipermail/ntg-context/2010/052632.html

If OpenType fonts are not in distribution, you have two options: a) Install them on your system and make sure that OSFONTDIR variable is properly set (you need to set it manually, either in texmfcnf.lua under texmf-local or in top folder; or you need an environmental variable) b) Put the font under texmf-local/fonts/opentype/<whatever> or under texmf-fonts (same location; you need to create texmf-fonts folder first) or under ~/texmf (again, same substructure). Option (a) is not too well tested. Mojca

I just have export OSFONTDIR="/usr/local/share/fonts;/usr/share/fonts;$HOME/.fonts" in my .bashrc and absolutely no problems. Marc
