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