9This document is typeset in \CONTEXT\ using \LUATEX\ with \METAPOST. We use only
10one font: the Computer Modern Typewriter. The verbatim portions of the text are
11typeset in its mono spaced variant. One of the reasons that I chose this font is
12that we need a mono spaced font to typeset the example code, and the Computer
13Modern Typewriter is one the best there is. This font combines well with many
14other typefaces, but the sometimes excessive use of different fonts (and sizes)
15in the styles that I have to implement made me long for simplicity. And so I
16decided to stick to one font. A careful reader will notice that this document has
17character protruding enabled (resulting in hanging punctuation).
18
19We use a couple of colors. Again, I went for simplicity and use rather primary
20colors, although I do use them in transparent variants as well.
21
22There is not much more to say, apart from that I want to thank our customers as
23well as \CONTEXT\ users for asking me to implement \DTP\ competing styles and
24features. Their demands drive \CONTEXT\ in directions we could not have foreseen
25when we started its development.
26
27We use a (transparent) gray background behind the text so that we have an
28indication where the text area is positioned relative to the page. It also
29enables us to comfortably turn on the grid.
30
31Some features shown here are relatively new and therefore they occasionally are
32improved. As a result some aspects of their functionality may change.
