unwanted font replacement during inclussion
by Vit Zyka 02 Jun '05

02 Jun '05

Hi, I noticed the next strange behaviour. Let us create very simple file test.tex: ------------------ \font\bf=cmbx12 Normal text. \bf Bold text. \end ------------------ Now include this file by plain pdftex: ------------------ \pdfximage{test.pdf} \pdfrefximage\pdflastximage \end ------------------ Everything is correct. No let us try to insert the file by context: ------------------ \starttext %\font\bf=cmbx12 %Normal text. \bf Bold text. \pdfximage{test.pdf} \pdfrefximage\pdflastximage \stoptext ------------------ And that is!!! Text 'bold text' is typeset with totaly different font from cmbx12, so it is smashed by wrong metric! See the attached file. If I uncomment two lines, so the font cmbx12 is not only present in the included file, the result is correct. Where is the problem? Something mixing cm and lm? I though that included file comes with all font resources. Hmmmm, now I feel it is more pdftex-related then context-related question. vit (pdfetex v1.30) -- Vít Zýka --- http://typokvitek.com Automatic document typesetting Automaticka sazba dokumentu -- --

That is very good news. Thank you, Thanh, very much. (Also good news for me is, that pdftex preserves form objects with geometrical transformations during PDF inclusion; If someday it preserves also annotations it would be really amazing!) > help with getting the djgpp binary work, please feel free to Thanks to Akira Kakuto who is maintaining the fresh food in the http://www.fsci.fuk.kindai.ac.jp/kakuto/win32-ptex/web2c75.html I do not need translating.

So let us return to the minimal example. I send you .tex, .log, and .pdf files for comparision. In addition I notice another strange behaviour with inclusion. Type 1 font cmb12 (embeded subset) was after inclusion replaced by Times New Roman Bold(?). The rest cm* font are OK. It needs more investigation from me, so, please, can you focus on the hz problem? Thank you very much Vit
