%D Watch out: as we define inside macros in sometimes special ways,
%D an occasional \type {\normaldef} is used in order to please the
%D \MKVI\ parser.

%D Beware, we use a special set of parameters here:
%D

%D The math related ones are similar to the ones used in \TEX\ itself,
%D the size related ones show up as keywords in the user interface
%D when switching sizes, and the two constants are used in key|/|value
%D situations.

%D We should consider design sizes ... maybe kick 'm out which removes
%D the size code and simplifies things considerably. After all, there
%D will be no latin modern math in sizes.

\writestatus{loading}{ConTeXt Font Macros / Initialization}

%D Documentation is somewhat messy as it contains bits and pieces of
%D previous versions.

\unprotect

%D There are several ways to specify a font. Three of them are pure \TEX\ ones, the
%D fourth one is new:
%D
%D \starttyping
%D \font\name=cmr12
%D \font\name=cmr12 at 10pt
%D \font\name=cmr12 scaled 2
%D \font\name=cmr12 sa 1.440
%D \stoptyping
%D
%D The non||\TEX\ alternative \type{sa} stands for {\em scaled at}. This means as
%D much as: scale the bodyfontsize with this factor. The scaled option is not that
%D useful as one needs to know the design size.
%D
%D Because \type {sa} (scaled at) and \type {mo} (mapped on) are not low level \TEX\
%D supported alternatives, we have to test for it ourselves. In doing so, we need an
%D auxiliary \DIMENSION. We cannot use \type{\scratchdimen} because font loading can
%D happen at any moment due to postponed loading. We could instead have used dirty
%D grouping tricks, but this one works too.

%D Fonts are defined in separate files. When we define a font, we distinguish
%D between several styles. In most cases we will use:
%D
%D \startlinecorrection
%D \starttable[|l||]
%D \HL
%D \NC roman regular serif    \NC \type{\rm} \NC\FR
%D \NC sansserif sans support \NC \type{\ss} \NC\MR
%D \NC type teletype mono     \NC \type{\tt} \NC\LR
%D \HL
%D \stoptable
%D \stoplinecorrection
%D
%D The number of styles is not limited to these three. When using Lucida Bright we
%D can for instance also define:
%D
%D \startlinecorrection
%D \starttable[|l||]
%D \HL
%D \NC handwritten  \NC \type{\hw} \NC\FR
%D \NC calligraphic \NC \type{\cg} \NC\LR
%D \HL
%D \stoptable
%D \stoplinecorrection
%D
%D Within such a font set (\type{cmr}) and style (\type{\rm}) we can define a number
%D of text font alternatives:
%D
%D \startlinecorrection
%D \starttable[|l||]
%D \HL
%D \NC typeface    \NC \type{\tf} \NC\FR
%D \NC boldface    \NC \type{\bf} \NC\MR
%D \NC slanted     \NC \type{\sl} \NC\MR
%D \NC italic      \NC \type{\it} \NC\MR
%D \NC boldslanted \NC \type{\bs} \NC\MR
%D \NC bolditalic  \NC \type{\bi} \NC\MR
%D \NC smallcaps   \NC \type{\sc} \NC\LR
%D \HL
%D \stoptable
%D \stoplinecorrection
%D
%D Internally fonts are stored as combination of size, style
%D and alternative, e.g. \type{12pt}+\type{\ss}+\type{\bf}. Users are not confronted
%D with sizes, but use the style or style+alternative to activate them.
%D
%D During the definition of a bodyfont one can also declare the available larger
%D alternatives:
%D
%D \starttyping
%D \tf \tfa \tfb \tfc ...
%D \bf \bfa \bfb \bfc ...
%D \sl \sla \slb \slc ...
%D \stoptyping
%D
%D The smaller ones are automatically supplied and derived from
%D the the bodyfont environment.
%D
%D \starttyping
%D \tfx \tfxx
%D \bfx \bfxx
%D \slx \slxx
%D \stoptyping
%D
%D There are only two smaller alternatives per style. The larger alternatives on the
%D other hand have no limitations.
%D
%D These larger alternatives are mostly used in chapter and section titles or on
%D title pages. When one switches to a larger alternative, the bold an other ones
%D automatically adapt themselves:
%D
%D \startbuffer
%D \tfd Hi \bf there\sl, here \tfb I \bf am
%D \stopbuffer
%D
%S \startnarrower
%D \typebuffer
%S \stopnarrower
%D
%D therefore becomes:
%D
%D \startexample
%D \getbuffer
%D \stopexample
%D
%D Maybe this mechanism isn't always as logic, but as said before, we tried to make
%D it as intuitive as possible.
%D
%D So a specific kind of glyph can be characterized by:
%D
%D \startnarrower
%D family (cmr) + bodyfont (12pt) + style (rm) + alternative (bf) + size (a)
%D \stopnarrower
%D
%D The last component (the size) is optional.
%D
%D We introduced \type {\tf} as command to call for the current normally sized
%D typeface. This commands results in roman, sans serif, teletype or whatever style
%D is in charge. Such rather massive switches of style sometimes take more
%D processing time than comfortable. Of course there is a workaround for this: we
%D can call fonts directly by means of commands like:
%D
%D \starttyping
%D \rmtf \sssl \tttf \rmbsa
%D \stoptyping
%D
%D One should realize that this fast calls have limitations, they lack for instance
%D automatic super- and subscript support.
%D
%D This leaves us two more commands: \type {\tx} and \type {\txx}. These activate a
%D smaller and even more smaller font than the current one and adapt themselves to
%D the current alternative, so when \type {\bf} is active, \type {\tx} gives a
%D smaller boldface, which in turn can be called directly by \type {\bfx}.
%D
%D These two smaller alternatives are specified by the bodyfont environment and
%D therefore not necessarily have similar sizes as \type {\scriptsize} and \type
%D {\scriptscriptsize}. The main reason for this incompatibility (which can easily
%D be undone) lays in the fact that we often want a bit bigger characters than in
%D math mode. In \CONTEXT\ for instance the \type {\tx} and \type {\txx} commands
%D are used for surrogate \cap {smallcaps} which support both nesting and
%D alternatives, like in {\bf \cap {a \cap {small} world}}, which was typeset by
%D
%D \starttyping
%D \bf\cap{a \cap{small} world}
%D \stoptyping
%D
%D And compare $\rm \scriptstyle THIS$ with the slightly larger \cap {THIS}:
%D \ruledhbox {$\rm \scriptstyle scriptstyle: THIS$} or \ruledhbox {\cap {x style:
%D THIS}} makes a big difference.
%D
%D The \type {x..d} sizes should be used grouped. If you don't group them, i.e. call
%D them in a row, \CONTEXT\ will not be able to sort out your intention (\type {x}
%D inside \type {d} inside \type {x}. etc.). The following table demonstrates this:
%D
%D \def\FontState{\setstrut\ruledhbox{\strut Hello}}

%D   {everybodyfont,everyglobalbodyfont}
%D
%D Every change in bodyfont size has conseqences for the baseline distance and skips
%D between paragraphs. These are initialized in other modules. Here we only provide
%D the hooks that garantees their handling.
%D
%D At the system level one can initialize thing like:
%D
%D \starttyping
%D \appendtoks \setupspacing \to \everybodyfont
%D \stoptyping

%D \macros
%D   {globalbodyfontsize,localbodyfontsize,bodyfontsize}
%D
%D Here we have to distinguish between the global (overal) bodyfont size and the
%D local (sometimes in the textflow) size. We store these dimensions in two
%D \DIMENSION\ registers. These registers are not to be misused in calculations.

\ifdefined\globalbodyfontsize\else \newdimen\globalbodyfontsize \fi \globalbodyfontsize=12pt
\ifdefined\localbodyfontsize \else \newdimen\localbodyfontsize  \fi \localbodyfontsize =\globalbodyfontsize
\ifdefined\bodyfontsize      \else \newdimen\bodyfontsize       \fi \bodyfontsize      =\globalbodyfontsize

%D When we assign for instance 12pt to a \DIMENSION\ register the \type {\the}'d
%D value comes out as 12.0pt, which is often not the way users specify the bodyfont
%D size. Therefore we use normalized values. They are cached to save overhead in
%D \LUA\ calls.

%D Scaling macros:
%D
%D This system is somewhat complicated by two (possible conflicting) demands:
%D
%D \startitemize
%D \item We support wildcards like \type {sa *} which will adapt to the current
%D       size. This is also the default specification.
%D \item We support named scales like \type {sa d}; beware: \type {x} and \type {xx}
%D       are valid scales but they are not alway the same as the ones used in for
%D       instance \type {\bfx} because there the sized come from the bodyfont
%D       environment. In the future there maybe a switch that also honors the
%D       environment in named scales.
%D \stopitemize
%D
%D Keep in mind that the smaller sizes are just for text super and subscripts while
%D larger sizes can be used in titles where for instance math follows the size.

%D In the following macros we use \type {\currentxfontsize} to hold the current
%D x||size of the font. This enables us to support for instance \type {\sl} inside a
%D \type {\tx} switch.

\newconstant\currentxfontsize

\def\xfontsize{\ifcase\currentxfontsize\fontsize\or\s!x\else\s!xx\fi}

%D Now we enter the area of font switching. The switching mechanism has to take care
%D of several situations, like:
%D
%D \startitemize[packed]
%D \item changing the overal document fonts (including margins, headers and footers)
%D \item changing local fonts (only the running text)
%D \item smaller and even more smaller alternatives (super- and subscripts)
%D \stopitemize
%D
%D \TEX\ offers a powerfull family mechanism for super- and subscripts in math mode.
%D In text mode however, we don't use families for the smaller alternatives, and
%D therefore have to take care of it otherwise.
%D
%D \macros
%D   {definebodyfontenvironment,setupbodyfontenvironment}
%D
%D The relationship between the several sizes of a font, is
%D defined by:
%D
%D \showsetup{definebodyfontenvironment}
%D
%D Later on we will see how these parameters are used, so for the moment we stick
%D with an example:
%D
%D \starttyping
%D \definebodyfontenvironment
%D   [12pt]
%D   [        text=12pt,
%D          script=9pt,
%D    scriptscript=7pt,
%D               x=10pt,
%D              xx=8pt,
%D             big=12pt,
%D           small=10pt]
%D \stoptyping
%D
%D The first argument specifies the bodyfont size to which the settings apply. All
%D second parameters are specified in dimensions and tell us more about related
%D sizes.
%D
%D Afterwards, one can change values with
%D
%D \showsetup{setupbodyfontenvironment}
%D
%D When instead of a size the keyword \type{unknown} is
%D passed, fractions (relations) are used instead of fixed
%D sizes.

%D {\bf Remark:} We need to cover the following cases, otherwise users can get
%D confused:
%D
%D \starttyping
%D \setupbodyfont[23pt]
%D
%D \definebodyfontenvironment[23pt]
%D \setupbodyfont[23pt]
%D
%D \definebodyfontenvironment[23pt]
%D \definebodyfont[23pt][rm,ss,tt][default]
%D \setupbodyfont[23pt]
%D \stoptyping
%D
%D Beware: while some font defs can be global, the bodyfont environment checks
%D local. This means that multiple local checks resulting in definitions are not
%D that efficient. So, apart from an occasional switch, one should define an
%D environment at the outer level.

%D We default all parameters to the main bodyfont size, so the next setup is valid

%D \stoptyping
%D
%D All parameters can be redefined when needed, so one doesnot have to stick to the
%D default ones.

%D \macros
%D   {definebodyfont}
%D
%D The next step in defining a bodyfont involves the actual font files, which can be
%D recognized by their extension \type {tfm}. Installing those file is often beyond
%D the scope of the user and up to the system administrator.
%D
%D \showsetup{definebodyfont}
%D
%D This commands takes three arguments: a (series of) bodyfont size(s), the style
%D group to which the definitions belong, and an alternative, as specified by the
%D \TEX\ (math) families, extended with~a, b~\unknown.
%D
%D We show two examples, that show all the alternative scaling options. The \type
%D {\tfa} alternatives can be extended with \type {\bfa}, \type {\slb}, etc. or even
%D \type {e} and higher alternatives. The magic scaled values are derived from plain
%D \TEX's \type {\magstep}:
%D
%D \starttyping
%D \definebodyfont [12pt] [rm]
%D   [tf=cmr12,
%D    bf=cmbx12,
%D    it=cmti12,
%D    sl=cmsl12,
%D    bi=cmbxti10 at 12pt,
%D    bs=cmbxsl10 at 12pt,
%D   tfa=cmr12    scaled 1.200,
%D   tfb=cmr12    scaled 1.440,
%D   tfc=cmr12    scaled 1.728,
%D   tfd=cmr12    scaled 2.074,
%D    sc=cmcsc10  at 12pt]
%D
%D \definebodyfont [12pt,11pt,10pt,9pt,8pt] [rm]

%D   tfb=lbr  sa 1.440,
%D   tfc=lbr  sa 1.728,
%D   tfd=lbr  sa 2.074,
%D    sc=lbr  sa 0.833]
%D \stoptyping
%D
%D The second example shows that we can define more sizes at once. The main
%D difference between these examples is that the Computer Modern Roman come in many
%D design sizes. This means that there we cannot define them in bulk using \type
%D {sa}. Instead of \type {rm} (roman) one can define \type {ss} (sans serif), \type
%D {tt} (teletype), \type {hw} (hand written), \type {cg} (calygraphic) and whatever
%D styles.
%D
%D The first argument may be a comma separated list. This, combined with
%D specifications using \type{sa} can save a lot of typing. Although all arguments
%D should be specified, we treat the second argument as optional.
%D
%D Defining a bodyfont involves two actions: defining the specific style related
%D alternatives, like \type {\rma}, \type {\bfa} and \type {\rmsla}, and storing the
%D definitions of their bodyfont size related fonts. The first step is bodyfont
%D independant but executed every time. This permits user definitions like \type
%D {\tfw} or \type {\bfq} for real large alternatives.
%D
%D If we move design size info to the lfg file (after all only lm has design sizes)
%D we can get rid of much code .. 2012 or so.

%D The next two macros are user ones. With \type {\setupbodyfont} one can set the
%D document bodyfont size, font family, style and/or options defined in files, for
%D example:
%D
%D \starttyping
%D \setupbodyfont[modern,12pt,roman]
%D \stoptyping
%D
%D This command affects the document as a whole: text, headers and footers. The
%D second macro however affects only the text:
%D
%D \starttyping
%D \switchtobodyfont[10pt]
%D \stoptyping
%D
%D So we've got:
%D
%D \showsetup{setupbodyfont}
%D \showsetup{switchtobodyfont}
%D
%D Both macros look alike. The second one also has to take all kind of keywords into
%D account.
