[NTG-context] \externalfigure problem with displaying external images via https://live.contextgarden.net
Hello. A few years ago I created a PHP application for printing filled forms with PDF background. PHP application is generating ConTeXt source code, that is subsequently translated using the online application https://live.contextgarden.net. I have now discovered that the application is not functional because the https://live.contextgarden.net application is unable to retrieve the external PDF file from our organization's URL. Oddly, this source code at https://live.contextgarden.net does not generate a PDF file with the form in the background: \starttext \externalfigure[http://gyza.cz/iapp/opisvysv/498540_SS_16_predmetu_str1_PDF.pdf] % PDF FILE ON OUR ORGANIZATION (SCHOOL) HOSTING \stoptext This is despite the fact that the PDF file exists at the URL and the browser is able to display it. On the other side the source code: \starttext \externalfigure[http://hajtmar.cz/iapp/opisvysv/498540_SS_16_predmetu_str1_PDF.pdf] % PDF FILE ON MY PRIVAT HOSTING \stoptext or source code: \starttext \externalfigure[http://www.pragma-ade.nl/show-gra.pdf] % PDF FILE ON PRAGMA-ADE.NL WEB \stoptext without any problems will generate a correct PDF file. Does anyone know what the problem might be? Why online ConTeXt is not read my PDF file and on other side read another PDF file? What does onlineConText not like? I need to get my application for printing archive certificates working again... Thanks.

[NTG-context] How to display the pages of a particular section in another PDF?
I can use this code to display page 5 from a PDF:\externalfigure[filename.pdf][page=5]I am making a teacher's guide for a workbook (workbook.pdf). I need to be able to display on the page all pages of a particular section. The teacher's guide uses the same section titles as the workbook, e.g.: 17-A: Title 17-B: Title In other words, there is 1:1 pairing of section titles in the teacher's guide and the workbook. Is there any way to tell ConTeXt to display all of the pages for a particular section? \externalfigure[filename.pdf][section=17A] --Joel ___ If your question is of interest to others as well, please add an entry to the Wiki! maillist : ntg-context@ntg.nl / https://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context webpage : https://www.pragma-ade.nl / http://context.aanhet.net archive : https://bitbucket.org/phg/context-mirror/commits/ wiki : https://contextgarden.net ___

Tags instead of names seems more consistent to me. At least when comparing it with OpenType features. And I think that "optical size" was the first key I see containing a space.

Dear list,
I have the following sample (using current latest from 2022.12.01 13:05):
\definefallbackfamily[mainface][rm][Noto Emoji]
[range={0x1F004-0xFE837}, force=yes]
\definefontfamily[mainface][rm][TeX Gyre Pagella]
\setupbodyfont[mainface]
\definestructureconversionset
[sectionnumbers]
[0,n,Characters,g,n]
[n]
\definefontfeature[section]
[smcp=yes,
c2sc=yes]
\setupheads[sectionconversionset=sectionnumbers]
\setuphead[section][style={\feature[+][section]}]
\starttext
\section{Just text}
{\feature[+][section]Just text}
\stoptext
LMTX outputs no small caps and it fallbacks to Noto Emoji. LuaTeX gives
the right output.
Am I missing something or have I hit a bug in LMTX?
more a bug in your approach: you specify a range where you also
overwrite private slots (that happen to be used for caps) .. at t he
cost of runtime i'll add a check against overwriting these
