Re: [NTG-context] Easy lucida font use

2003-11-11 Thread Adam Lindsay
David,

Which operating system are you on?

All I can think of as the easy way is the possibility listed in cont-sys:
% Some styles default to Lucida Bright. You can overload 
% Lucida by Times cum suis. Watch out, the pos collection 
% is not scaled relatively. 
%
% \definetypescriptsynonym [lbr] [pos] 

Which is to say, if you don't have the fonts, all you can do is choose a
substitute. If you do have the font *installed*, then it would be: 
\usetypescript[lbr]


And, the reason why I ask which operating system you're on is because a
lot of systems have 12 of the Lucida fonts installed because of Java. On
MacOSX, with Java 1.4.1, I have a texfont install with symbolic links to
the .ttf files. If there's a canonical linux install location for Java,
the same thing could be done there, I think.

(I'm planning on releasing some Mac OS X/ConTeXt tricks soon, but I
need to debug the font issues with gwTeX first.)

Cheers,
adam

All,

There was an easy way shared to use the Lucida fonts without having to do
any special font or map generation via texfont. Something involving Adobe
KB or some such thing. Can someone remind me?

[NTG-context] bold math

2003-11-11 Thread Sytse Knypstra
Hi all,

I would like to use bold greek math symbols (I have the lucida family 
installed).
In the `Fonts in ConTeXt' manual I concluded from page 12 that this should 
be relatively simple.
However all my attempts failed: either I got the normal math symbols or I 
got all (roman and greek) symbols bold,
whereas I want to use them alternately.
I tried the description on the pages 13 and 14, but I couldn't get it working.
I simply inserted `,boldmath' in the lucida typescript in the file type-exa 
and it gave me all symbols bold.
I must admit that I don't understand much of what is written in the `Fonts 
in ConTeXt' manual.

Can anybody give me a solution of how to achieve this?

BTW. Shouldn't this feature be a standard one in ConTeXt?

Thanks
Sytse

[NTG-context] countproblem

2003-11-11 Thread Bernd Militzer
Hi all!


what is wong?
% 
%
%   ad the points of each question
\def\getPunkte[#1]{\advance\summeP by \number#1}
%
%   show the points on the right side
\def\showP[#1]{\inright{\hfill(#1 P.)}}
%
%   handle the points
\def\pkt[#1]%
{%
\showP[#1]%
\getPunkte[#1]  
}
%
Using this macro in normal text like 
TestQuestion \pkt[5]
it works!!!

But when I use this macro in combination with enumeration I run in a
problem
example:
%
\defineenumeration[question][location=inmargin,text=,width=fit]
%
\question\pkt[5] 
TestQuestion\par
nothing ist count in this case!


Thanks for any help.

Bernd

[NTG-context] letter style

2003-11-11 Thread Janko Hauser
Hello, my name is Janko Hauser, I'm a new context user, after many
years of LaTeX :-)

I want to use context for two different projects.

1. Produce styled PDF documents from a web-content-managment-system.
This will be web-page based but also complete sets of pages to
generate longer documents. One conceptual idea is to have something
like a clip-board of visited pages, which can be printed as one
document. 

Ok, this Zope-based site will be an effort going into the next year. I
mention it only for background for the coming questions in the next
months.

2. I want to generate my invoice and business-letters with context. I
searched the mailinglist but the only note I got was a reference to
the last MAPS which should contain an article about this. Ah and
Hans has mentioned that there is something in the making :-) 
Is there already something to look at? Does someone know a direct link
to the mentioned MAPS-article?

Thanks in advance, I'm really looking forward to using context.

__Janko

Am Dienstag, 11.11.03, um 20:44 Uhr (Europe/Zurich) schrieb Willi Egger:
Context does not directly know styles. - Of course you can create a 
layout-file where everything is organized:

setup the general layout of the page
setup the font
setup the logo(s)
setup header
setup footer
Use the layout-file in a file invoice.tex:

\input layout-files
better use environment files and components (project syntax)

I'm not sure but consider

TestQuestion \pkt[5] 
{TestQuestion \pkt[5]}
TestQuestion \pkt[5] 

That will probably produce not what you need. Meybe You should use

\global\advance\summeP by \number#1

in \getPunkte definition? Let me know if I'm right.
