I am using EB Garamond for my font, but there's a few places I need some special characters, like a checkmark symbol, so I'm trying to set FreeSerif as a fallback.
\definefallbackfamily[main] [serif] [file:/home/joel/.fonts/FreeSerif.otf] [range=dingbats, force=yes] \definefallbackfamily[main] [sans] [file:/home/joel/.fonts/FreeSerif.otf] [range=dingbats, force=yes] \starttypescript[serif] [garamond] \definefontsynonym[Serif] [file:/home/joel/.fonts/EBGaramond-Regular.otf] \definefontsynonym[SerifBold] [file:/home/joel/.fonts/EBGaramond-Bold.otf] \definefontsynonym[SerifItalic] [file:/home/joel/.fonts/EBGaramond-Italic.otf] \definefontsynonym[SerifBoldItalic] [file:/home/joel/.fonts/EBGaramond-BoldItalic.otf] \definefontsynonym[SerifCaps] [file:/home/joel/.fonts/EBGaramond12-AllSC.otf] \stoptypescript % \starttypescript[sans] [garamond] \definefontsynonym[Sans] [file:/home/joel/.fonts/OptimaLTStd-Bold.otf] \definefontsynonym[SansBold] [file:/home/joel/.fonts/OptimaLTStd.otf] \definefontsynonym[SansItalic] [file:/home/joel/.fonts/EBGaramond-Italic.otf] \definefontsynonym[SansBoldItalic] [file:/home/joel/.fonts/LeMurmure-Regular.otf] \definefontsynonym[SansCaps] [file:/home/joel/.fonts/EBGaramond12-AllSC.otf] \stoptypescript % \starttypescript[garamond] \definetypeface[garamond] [rm][serif][garamond][default] \definetypeface[garamond] [ss][sans][garamond][default] \definetypeface[garamond] [mm][math][math][default] \stoptypescript % I've looked through many handbooks and old questions on-line and tried many configurations. It appears the way to define the fallback has changed many times over the years, and none I've tried works. I've confirmed I can make ConTeXt use my font "FreeSerif.otf", but I can't get it to appear as a fallback. Basically if the character can't be found in EB Garamond, I hope it will use FreeSerif.otf, but generally, I'm just using it for a couple special symbols. How do I correct his so it properly displays the symbols from FreeSerif.otf? --Joel
