Re: [NTG-context] showcase on mac?
Hi, This is strange. I use also the 8.1.2 version of Acrobat Reader on a MAC with OS 10.4. I have precisely the same problems als Frans mentioned. - I now realize that I encountered this already a longer time ago, but due to the fact that I download manuals directly from the tree, I forgot this.

[NTG-context] new beta
hi,
- the current beta has some speedups and mem improvements for fonts
- for huge fonts (like chinese) general mem consumption can be made
smaller (at the cost of some runtime) by
\ctxlua{garbagecollector.enabled=true}
although this is not that neccessary when you used the upcoming beta

You need to say a bit more about your circumstances and goals. 90% of TeX should work well (excepting experimental bits like luatex, xetex, and ConTeXt MKiV which may need some tweaks) on all current platforms, but if you are constrained by site policy to use binary packages provided by your distribution, that is an entirely different problem from whether you can use TeX Live from CTAN. If you rely heavily on .dvi and want a viewer (e.g., kpdf) that is integrated with your desktop, then your options are more limited, but you should think about switching to a PDF workflow (because it is well supported outside the TeX community, there are more and better tools for PDF than for DVI). -- George N.

TEXINPUTS was quite useful, because every user could put his own personal directory in it, and there did not need to be an ls-R file. TeX Live 2008 has TEXMFHOME set to $HOME/texmf in the default configuration file (configured so ls-R is not needed). Well, no offense, I used to be a big fan of SuSE myself (still like it a lot, but their package manager really needs work). But: I just double-checked, and TEXINPUTS is still set on my 11.0 system - even though I don't have any SuSE-provided TeX-system installed. That's really unpardonable. I can understand why they want to set it for their own TeXLive packages, but not on a virgin system without any TeX component. For an inexperienced user who wants to install TeXLive from DVD or via the net installer, this will be a major obstacle. So I think the point remains valid: SuSE is not a TeX-friendly distribution. Having TEXINPUTS set when TeX is not installed is not nice, but it is really a trivial issue. Someone who uses SuSE should post a note explaining how to remove TEXINPUTS (hopefully in a way that will survive updates) and file a bug report with SuSE. Distributions are can only be as TeX friendly as their users -- otherwise you get what is needed to build program documents and no more. -- George N.

[NTG-context] hz MkIV
Hi,
in MkIV hz is bound to the found (thus the speed increase).
Now, how do I assign different degrees of hz to different areas?
Say, moderate hz in the normal text and more drastic in controlled
situation, like this:
% main text:
\setupbodyfont[postscript,10pt]
\setupalign[block,hanging,hz]
% and in controlled situation:
\setupwhatever[align=hzXXL,style=...]
This doesn't work:
fonts.expansions.classes['NormalQuality'] = {
stretch = 1, shrink = 1, step = .5, vector = 'default', factor = 1
}
fonts.expansions.classes['DrasticQuality'] = {
stretch = 2, shrink = 2, step = .5, vector = 'default', factor = 1
}
\definefontfeature[hz][default]
[protrusion=pure,expansion=sstquality,mode=node,script=latn]
\definefontfeature[hzXXL][default]
[protrusion=pure,expansion=sstquality,mode=node,script=latn]
\usetypescript[postscript]
\definetypeface[postscript][rm][serif][times][default][features=hz]%
- what to do with hzXXL ???

Dear Sirs,
I want to include in my document some nice pie charts with the

know a way to fix that?
Thanks a lot

[NTG-context] metapost and luatex (or xetex)
Hi all,
from metafun manual, page 157, I took this example
\startuniqueMPgraphic{copyright}
picture p ; p := btex COPYRIGHT etex rotated 90 ;
setbounds p to boundingbox p enlarged 1pt ;
draw p withcolor .8white ;
xyscale_currentpicture(\the\leftmarginwidth,\the\textheight) ;
\stopuniqueMPgraphic
\setuptexttexts [margin] [] [\uniqueMPgraphic{copyright}]
\starttext
\input knuth
\stoptext
but compiling it I get some trouble
texexec --pdf works as expected
texexec --lua drops colors (COPYRIGHT is black)
texexec --xtx gives no output (linux and FreeBSD)
All normal?
Regards

Re: [NTG-context] hz MkIV

Hi,
in MkIV hz is bound to the found (thus the speed increase).
Now, how do I assign different degrees of hz to different areas?
Say, moderate hz in the normal text and more drastic in controlled
situation, like this:
% main text:
\setupbodyfont[postscript,10pt]
\setupalign[block,hanging,hz]
% and in controlled situation:
\setupwhatever[align=hzXXL,style=...]
This doesn't work:
fonts.expansions.classes['NormalQuality'] = {
stretch = 1, shrink = 1, step = .5, vector = 'default', factor = 1
}
fonts.expansions.classes['DrasticQuality'] = {
stretch = 2, shrink = 2, step = .5, vector = 'default', factor = 1

\definefontfeature[hz][default]
[protrusion=pure,expansion=sstquality,mode=node,script=latn]
\definefontfeature[hzXXL][default]
[protrusion=pure,expansion=sstquality,mode=node,script=latn]
\usetypescript[postscript]
\definetypeface[postscript][rm][serif][times][default][features=hz]%
- what to do with hzXXL ???
just define an extra typeface with different characteristics
(i can imagine that at some point we can have an extra multiplication
factor, like (lowlevel) \effactor or so but that demands a patch of luatex)

But that doesn't work in mkii then unless some other hacks are added.
(I know, mkii and mkiv are not compatible, but there are no obvious
limitations why they could not work in the same way.)
(no colorization of pictures with text in mkiv)
(In the particular case of gnuplot, I have no idea how to deal with
that situation without a bunch of extra work since it's not so simple
to convert some color from metapost variable into one that ConTeXt
accepts in \color[...]. I have \chardef\TeXtextcolormode\zerocount in
mkii, but I still consider it ugly.)
In the case of XeTeX: no, it's not normal. If you add
\loadmapfile[lm-ec.map] this solves the problem, but if I was on your
place, I would use \sometxt{COPYRIGHT} instead of btex COPYRIGHT etex.
Loading map files has been removed from XeTeX a while ago. Maybe lm-ec
should be added back for such cases? (I remember some problems with
btex etex in past after map files have been removed, but I don't
remember solving anything at that time.)

You could also redefine to prohibit a pagebreak/columnbreak between
paragraphs but these things should be done in a local group.
