 Hans,

   In s-mod-??, the file name is simply typeset as \tt\Modulefile. This

 \filename{\Modulefile} for a more robust solution?
   
sure,

Hi Hans,

if I look at your it seems to me alternative=horizontal|vertical will be similiar 
to alternative=b and not horizontal==a and vertical==c as I thought.

You're right about the #1 but this is my method of lerning of TeX. Help other people
and try to understand how things work.

[NTG-context] color question

If this is OT, my apologies to all.

I am currently using ConTEXt to produce PDFs with a colored  
background which I specify using R G B settings. Unfortunately, this  
background does not look the same when others open the files on their  
computers. Is there anything I can do at my end to correct this?

There are well-known differences between various computer brands, and
individual PC's generally vary widely. If you need really good
agreement, then all the systems need to be viewed under similar light
conditions and calibrated (e.g., using a colorimeter, or at least the
GretagMacbeth ColorChecker, a printed chart) and you want to generate
PDF's with a specific colorspace (not just deviceRGB).  For most
purposes, it seems to work to use a rough sRGB setting where you
adjust the monitor (brightness, contrast) to approximate gamma=2.2.
Check this with:
http://www.normankoren.com/makingfineprints1A.html#Monitor_test_pattern.

Many LCD's and worn-out CRT's like the ancient NCD on my desk will
fail even this simple test.

Not yet ;-)

I can think of 3 possibilities for a static barcodes module:
- draw the bars with MetaPost
- use psTricks/pdfTricks
- call GNU barcode externally
- use barcode fonts (makes no sense...)
That would be interesting for price tags, ISBN or the like.

But dynamical stuff like Adobe's must probably get drawn with  
JavaScript (or perhaps Flash?).

I guess it would be *possible* but you'd have to hire a good

Color almost never looks the same on some other screen - you can't

I ran it here (ver: 2006.10.05).  With just \placetable[here], it
doesn't split.  With \placetable[here,split], it splits it into two
parts with Table 1.a on one page and Table 1.b on the other page.

The Obertext zum Ganzen is only on the first page, which is what the
.tex code should do (but maybe you wanted it repeated at the top of
each split page?).

Re: [NTG-context] figurenumbering

2006-10-10 Thread Wolfgang Werners-Lucchini
Hallo!

With ConTeXt ver. 2006.09.26, figure numbering is working as
expected.

   You need the option
   \setupfloats[numbering=nocheck]

is not longer needed, but

 you can see a bad sideeffects by figurenumber=nocheck in my
 example

this sideeffect is visible both, with nocheck and without this option 
(numbering=yes resp.).
 
 example
 \setupfloats[numbering=nocheck]
 \starttext
 \placefigure{}{\framed{Blub}}
 \placefigure[page][]{}{\framed{Bautz}}
 \placefigure{}{\framed{Bla}}
 This were \rawnumber[figure] figures by now!
 \setnumber[figure]{8}
 We want to count on with \rawnumber[figure].
 \placefigure{}{\framed{Plong}}
 figurenumber is incremented to \rawnumber[figure].
 \stoptext
 /example
 
 The number of the figures are set as they appear in the text and
 this did not work well when one figure is set later as another one
 typed later in your code.

 Hi everyone,

 I've seen some marvelous samples on Adobe' official site about dynamic
 barcoded forms using XML:

 http://www.adobe.com/products/server/barcodedpaperforms/pdfs/sample_barcoded_demo.pdf

 can someone tell me that is it possible to build such pdfs using ConTeXt?

   
you mean forms? sure ; ths data can be sent to a server which then can 
send back a result

barcodes ... if i need them i will play with metapost a bit (i never 
looked into barcodes)

 Hi Hans,
  
 if I look at your it seems to me alternative=horizontal|vertical will 
 be similiar
 to  alternative=b and not horizontal==a and vertical==c as I thought.
can you test the beta? the code is in there now

 I can think of 3 possibilities for a static barcodes module:
 - draw the bars with MetaPost
 - use psTricks/pdfTricks
 - call GNU barcode externally
 - use barcode fonts (makes no sense...)
 That would be interesting for price tags, ISBN or the like.

GNU barcode works reasonably well. You have to trim the produced ps a
bit, but that's easy.

I collected some docs on barcodes for a project some years ago, I  
could sent that to you or anyone else.
But I guess the best would be to look into the code of GNU barcode  
(only one C file, AFAIR).

[NTG-context] bug in beta: extra \else

2006-10-10 Thread Vit Zyka

Hi all,

there is some deep bug that was discovered translating Beginners manual. 
Let take single chapter e.g. ma-cb-cz-alignments.tex


With today beta I got .log attached (error ! Extra \else)
This will appear in both modes screen and normal.

Interesting is that no error appears in context 2006-05-28.

In context 2006-09-10 this error appears only in normal mode. Screen 
mode is OK.


Vit

P.S. Today's beta shows even more problems:
- inside typebuffer: only '\dochar {225}' instead of \'a in latin2
- some metapost graphics is wrong
But I suggest to solve them step by step.

[NTG-context] Bibtex and et al

2006-10-10 Thread Pepe Barbe
Hi,

I am using the bib module using the AMS format. I've noticed that all
the publications that get appended et al to the authors, do not
include any space between the authors name and et al. Example:

John Doeetal, Publication Title

Any ideas how to fix this?

Thanks,
Pepe

Re: [NTG-context] Can ConTeXt make dynamic barcoded forms?

2006-10-10 Thread Zhichu Chen
Thank you misters,

Drawing static barcodes is very easy, but I really like the dynamic
barcoded forms. I've downloaded some examples which is written in
java, and it says that it uses XML. I've heard that ConTeXt can use
XML but when I've finished reading the example.pdf (it is talking
about XML in ConTeXt, right?), I totally have no idea about it. I love
ConTeXt so much that I wish it can do everything.

By the way, I have another question: how can we make reader-extension
pdfs? I mean we can save, add anotations, etc., using Adobe Reader 7
or above. It is another cool function.

[NTG-context] Problems mapping Xml into ConTeXt

2006-10-10 Thread Michael Wigston

Hi everyone,

I am attempting to map some XML into
ConTeXt as described in the manual XML in ConTeXt. Essentially
we have a bunch of tagged text (the XML loosely based on some
of the XHTML tags) from which we want to produce PDF letters for
dispatch (via email, post etc). 

I am having particular problems implementing
the following commands: -
\underbar,
\underbars, \overstrike, \overstrikes, \low, \high and \lohi

I was expecting that they would all
easily be defined using the \defineXMLgrouped [name] {command} element
mapping. There is probably something very simple that I have not setup
correctly since I am sure that this has been attempted before and would
appreciate pointers as to where I am going wrong.

The following attempts at mapping element
u to \underbar illustrates my problem which also seems largely
applicable to the strike, sub and sup mapping:
-

1. This def of u does
nothing ...
\defineXMLgrouped [u] \underbar

2. This def of u also
does nothing ...
\defineXMLgrouped [u] {\groupedcommand{\underbar}{}}

3. This def of u underlines
the 1st character only ...
\defineXMLenvironment [u] {\bgroup\underbar}
{\egroup}

4. In the mailing list, there is a suggestion
that \underbar does not allow line-breaking, so I also tried the
following. This def of u works partially, in
that it does underline, however it causes havoc with alignment - everything
seems to shift over to the right about 4cm ...

\defineXMLenvironment [u] \startul \stopul
\definetextbackground[ul]
 [location=text,alternative=1,background="">

\definestartstop[ul]
  [before={\starttextbackground[ul]
},
after={\stoptextbackground\
}]


Below is a sample .tex file that
I have been playing with: -

\usemodule[contml]
\autoXMLnamespace [context]

% Attempts at defining a mapping for
u: -
% This def of u does nothing
...
%\defineXMLgrouped [u] \underbar
% This def of u does nothing
...
%\defineXMLgrouped [u] {\groupedcommand{\underbar}{}}
% This def of u underlines the
1st character only ...
%\defineXMLenvironment [u] {\bgroup\underbar}
{\egroup}
%
% This def of u works
partially, in that it does underline, however it
% causes havoc with alignment - everything
seems to shift over to the right
% about 4cm ...

\defineXMLenvironment [u] \startul \stopul
\definetextbackground[ul]
 [location=text,alternative=1,background="">

\definestartstop[ul]
  [before={\starttextbackground[ul]
},
  %  after={\stoptextbackground\fixedspaces}]
after={\stoptextbackground\
}]

% Other mappings
\defineXMLgrouped [right] \rightaligned
\defineXMLgrouped [centre] \midaligned
\defineXMLgrouped [em] \em
\defineXMLsingular [br] [nr=1]
  {\blank[\XMLop{nr}*medium]}
