[NTG-context] line break
Hullo all,
Maybe somebody can help me with this:
I have a paragraph and an image in the outer margin, sticking slightly
into the text area. On the opposite side, in the inner margin, I have
two letters. What happens is that after the \inothermargin command I
get a line break (not a new paragraph, but a line break). When I remove
the image, the line break disappears.
This is the code:
\placevignette{}{\externalfigure[di_B12_marg][width=4cm]}
Die Resorption des {\em wasserlˆslichen} Vitamins B\low{12} (=
Cobalamin, s. Formel) f‰llt aus dem Rahmen: B\low{12} wird nur als
Komplex mit dem \quotation{Intrinsic Factor}, einem Glycoprotein aus
den Belegzellen des Magens, {\em im Ileum} aufgenommen (Intrinsic, weil
der Faktor aus dem Kˆrper stammt -- dazu passend bezeichnet man
B\low{12} auch als \quotation{Extrinsic Factor}).\inothermargin{\ssd
Pa} Vitamin B\low{12} wird von Bakterien synthetisiert und stammt
ausschliesslich aus tierischer Nahrung; Veganer/innen, die nicht nur
auf Fleisch, sondern auch auf Eier und Milchprodukte verzichten,
besitzen einen entsprechend niedrigen Vorrat des Vitamins. H‰ufigste
Ursache f¸r die {\em perniziˆse An‰mie}, die klassische
B\low{12}-Mangelkrankheit, ist allerdings nicht eine Fehlern‰hrung,
sondern eine verminderte Resorption im Ileum, entweder weil dessen
Schleimhaut entz¸ndet ist (Sprue), oder weil eine erkrankte
Magenschleimhaut zuwenig Intrinsic Factor produziert.
I call this type of figures vignette and defined it as follows:
\definefloat[vignette][figure]
\setupfloat[vignette][leftmargindistance=-
\outermargintotal,rightmargindistance=-
\outermargintotal,default={outer,none,low}]
\setupcaption[vignette][number=no]

Re: [NTG-context] Font installation help
Font installation is not a trivial or newbie problem, and you're in the right place place to ask this question. However, both methods fail might not be precise enough as a description of what went wrong. If you're looking for other tutorials, Practex journal 2005 # 2 (http://www.tug.org/pracjourn/) has to articles about installing fonts for ConTeXt, one by Adam Lindsay (on Open Type fonts) and one by yours truly on Truetype fonts.

[NTG-context] Enumeration numbering broken
Hello,
in the following example, I'm pretty sure that it should produce Lemmas and
Theorems numbered continuously (i.e., one common counter for both of them)
and moreover, the numbers should (due to bychapter) be preceded by chapter
number. In ConTeXt 2005.06.27, the enumerations are counted separately and
chapter number prefix is missing.
Interestingly, if Lemma and Theorem blocks are swapped, they become really
Theorem 1 and Lemma 2. The chapter number is still missing.
Has the mechanism been changed or am I doing anything wrong?
***
\defineenumeration
[Theorem]
[text=Theorem~,
way=bychapter,
inbetween=\noindent]
\defineenumeration
[Lemma]
[Theorem]
[text=Lemma~]
\starttext
\chapter{chapter}
\startLemma
This should be Lemma 1.1
\stopLemma
\startTheorem
This should be Theorem 1.2

Thanks,
D.A.

[NTG-context] how to number poetry?
What is the best way to number lines of poetry? 1 This is the first line This is the second line ... 5 this is the fifth ... 10 this is the tenth. I can supply the number myself. I really don't want the numbers in the margin. Instead, I want the whole poem indented right, with the numbers left of the indent.
