Beamer class and ECFAugie

Post by jspr »

Hi, I'm experimenting with making my own beamer theme and so far I've made some nice progress using the beamer manual and Google, but one of the things I haven't figured out yet is how to change the main font of my text. I'm going for a handwritten/blackboard look (check out the attachment) and would like to use ECFAugie. I can set the font by putting '\ECFAugie' after '\begin{document}' in the actual slides, but I would like to set it in the .sty file.

First, I load the package (by the way, I use TeXMaker and MiKTeX):

Code: Select all

\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
\usepackage{emerald}
Changing the font for the title, the author etc. works:

Code: Select all

\setbeamerfont{title}{size=\huge, series=\ECFAugie}
\setbeamerfont{author}{series=\ECFAugie}
\setbeamerfont{date}{series=\ECFAugie}
\setbeamerfont{institute}{series=\ECFAugie}
But I don't know how to change the main font and the math font. I'm still looking for a suitable handwritten math font actually.

I expect to problem to be similar to this one. Can somebody help me out?
