Latin Modern EC is +loaded here. These fonts are totally unusable in LuaTeX when languages with out +of ASCII or ISO-8859-1 alphabets are used (for example Czech). We load only +a few 8bit fonts here especially for simple testing the format. +But, if the user needs to do more serious work, he/she can +use `\fontfam` macro to load a selected font family of Unicode fonts. + +We have a dilemma: when the Unicode fonts cannot be preloaded in the format then the basic +font set can be loaded by `\everyjob`. But why to load a set of fonts at the +beginning of every job when it is highly likely that the user will +load something completely different. Our decision is: there is a basic 8bit +font set in the format (for testing purposes only) and the user should load +a Unicode font family at beginning of the document. + +The fonts selectors \`\tenrm`, \`\tenbf`, \`\tenit`, \`\tenbi`, \`\tentt` +are declared as `\public` here but only for backward compatibility. We don't +use them in the Font Selection System. But the protected versions of these +control sequences are used in the Font Selection System. + |
