Font Catalogue

The \LaTeX font catalogue is a listing of a wide variety of fonts with examples. Let's explore how to use those fonts in Reanimate.

Fetamont

Go to https://tug.org/FontCatalogue/fetamont/ and look under the Usage section. There you can find \LaTeX preamble code and style selector code. The preamble looks like this:

\usepackage{fetamont}
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}

And the style selector looks like this: \ffmfamily

Armed with this information, we can create a TeX configuration in Reanimate:

fetamont = TexConfig LaTeX
  ["\\usepackage{fetamont}"
  ,"\\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}"]
  ["\\ffmfamily"]

animation :: Animation
animation = scene $
  showCfg "Fetamont" fetamont

Inconsolata

Configuration code for Inconsolata can be found here: https://tug.org/FontCatalogue/inconsolata/

inconsolata = TexConfig LaTeX
  ["\\usepackage{inconsolata}"
  ,"\\renewcommand*\\familydefault{\\ttdefault}"
  ,"\\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}"]
  ["\\normalfont"]

animation :: Animation
animation = scene $
  showCfg "Inconsolata" inconsolata

Computer Modern

Computer modern is the default font. It's presented here as a reference and as a point of comparison.

-- Default font so no need to do anything.
computerModern = TexConfig LaTeX
  []
  []

animation :: Animation
animation = scene $
  showCfg "Computer Modern" computerModern

Missing fonts

Fonts only work if they are installed in your TeX setup. If a font is missing, you'll get a cryptic error message like this:

clayTablet = TexConfig LaTeX
  ["\\usepackage{fontspec}"
  ,"\\setmainfont{QTClaytablet}"]
  ["\\normalfont"]

animation :: Animation
animation = scene $
  showCfg "Claytablet" clayTablet
