Re: [NTG-context] Simple question
Don't know how if there's an automatic way, perhaps look into ctx processing
instructions.
Anyway you can use
--result=name
As you have to set quite a few options on the command line (modes, language)
you'll perhaps want to use a makefile anyway.

Betreff: Re: [NTG-context] Simple question
Thank you.
Is it possible to change the name of the resulting PDF file based on the
language and a mode?
So that with a command
context language=fr mode=simple file.tex
the result is in
file-simple-fr.pdf
and with
context language=ru mode=none file.tex (or no mode given)
the result is
file-ru.pdf

What is the easiest way to have a ‘database’ of translations for strings and

I now have 4 languages and 2 versions so 8 documents, but I’d like to have all
translatable strings together so I can maintain these in a single file. Ideally
I can do a file where the key of the translation is one language (say English)
and the translations are part of that.
Something I can call like this
\translatephrase[English phrase][nl]
\translatelocation[../LMTX-Output/without-ids/en/file.pdf][nl][simple]
and where I can maintain all the translations a bit like this:
\translationentry[English phrase]{
\definetranslatephrase[nl]Nederlandse frase]
\definetranslatephrase[fr][Phrase français]
}
}
\translatelocation[../LMTX-Output/without-ids/en/file.pdf][simple][nl][../LMTX-Output/without-ids/nl/file-simple.pdf]]
\translatelocation[../LMTX-Output/without-ids/en/file.pdf][none][nl][../LMTX-Output/without-ids/nl/file.pdf]]
Where the \translatelocation command can be used inside an \externalfigure
command and \translatephrase can be used as as text.
In the end I’d like to compile with
context language=fr mode=simple mainfile.tex
Doable?
To set language dependent texts you can use the labeltext mechanism which is
used by ConTeXt to change the captions for floats etc.
Besides the default \labeltext and \setuplabeltext commands you can create your
own instance of the mechanism for your texts.
begin example
\definelabelclass [gerben]
\setupgerbentext [en] [phrase=English phrase]
\setupgerbentext [nl] [phrase=Nederlandse frase]
\setupgerbentext [fr] [phrase=Phrase français]
%\mainlanguage[nl]
%\mainlanguage[fr]
\starttext
\gerbentext{phrase}
\stoptext
end example
To change images you use multiple sub folders where each folder has images
which the same name. In ConTeXt you can use a mode to choose which directory is
used to load the image. Another method is to map the file names of the images
to symbolic names and use only the symbolic names in your document.
begin example
\setupexternalfigures [location={local,global,default}]
\useexternalfigure [simple] [cow.pdf]
%\useexternalfigure [simple] [hacker.png]
\starttext
\externalfigure[simple]
\stoptext
end example

Is that limited to a {}-scope? And more importantly, that catches ^ and _,

a macro like \currentcomponent? Something along the lines of
\verbatimexpand{\currentcomponent}?
Untested: \filename{\currentcomponent}
Works. When outside a component (e.g. index) it defaults to the string 'text'.

You can add the \nonknuthmode to your document which makes _ and ^ normal

Hi Philipp,
that runs into the problem that the file name might contain characters that
TeX does not like, e.g. underscore. Is there a command to catch that?
You can add the \nonknuthmode to your document which makes _ and ^ normal
characters for text mode.
Is that limited to a {}-scope? And more importantly, that catches ^ and _, but
what about whitespace etc. Isn;t there a true verbatim that I can use on a
macro like \currentcomponent? Something along the lines of
\verbatimexpand{\currentcomponent}?

You (pablo) can report to the font designer that for features like kerning a dflt,dflt pair makes sense. Thank you very much, Hans, Wolfgang and Luigi for your help. Sorry for the messages, but I used ConTeXt to check whether old traditional kerning was enabled on FreeSerif fonts (not as OpenType features). This is actually for an ereader. As far as I know, I have to enable the Latin script in ConTeXt in all the fonts I use with include OT features. That's fine for me. What I couldn't understand before was that I was getting less kerns even with the OpenType feature enabled. I took me a while to understand that those kerns that weren't showing off in my file (my guess) were removed in the latest version of FreeSerif. BTW, I need to enable the Latin script even for features that belong to other scripts, such as in Theano Didot (those contextual alternatives and stylistic set 11 belong to the Greek script): \usemodule[simplefonts] \definefontfeature[default][default][script=latn,calt=yes,ss11=yes] \setmainfont[Theano Didot] \starttext \startTEXpage[offset=10pt] βάρβαροι θαυμασθεὶς \stopTEXpage \stoptext Many thanks again for your help, Pablo -- http://www.ousia.tk ___ If your question is of interest to others as well, please add an entry to the Wiki! maillist : ntg-context@ntg.nl / http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context webpage : http://www.pragma-ade.nl / http://tex.aanhet.net archive : http://foundry.supelec.fr/projects/contextrev/ wiki : http://contextgarden.net ___

Sorry for the stupid question: isn't it font kerning (not kern OT table,
but traditional non-OT kerning) enabled when compiling this source?
Many thanks for your help,

kerning is *always* driven by the font, given that the font has kerns
(not all fonts need them)
you can see kern sin action with:
\starttext
\showfontkerns \input ward
\stoptext

Thanks for your reply, Hans.
Sorry, my question was inaccurate.
I know that kerning information is in the font, but it is ConTeXt that
uses this information (or not).
As far as I know, there are two kinds of kerningns: an OT kern feature
from the GPOS table and an old TrueType 'kern' table.
In the following sample OpenType features aren't enabled:
\usemodule[simplefonts][size=30pt]
\setmainfont[FreeSerif]
\starttext

{\bf dadedidodufafefifofufrflftlalelilolutatetitotu\par}
{\bf\em dadedidodufafefifofufrflftlalelilolutatetitotu\par}
\stoptext
I'm using TrueType fonts of FreeSerif. Isn't the TrueType 'kern' enabled
by default in ConTeXt? (The glyphs in the example above have no kerning
at all, so I wonder whether at least the TrueType 'kern' table should be
used by ConTeXt.)
Many thanks for your help,
Pablo

Sure, kern tables are used and are quite valid in open type as well
(open type includes truetype).
I see lots of kerns in:
\starttext
\startTEXpage[offset=10pt]
\definedfont[file:freeserif.ttf*default] \showfontkerns \input ward
\stopTEXpage
\stoptext
I assume simplefonts uses the default featureset

[NTG-context] simple question: newline in chapter header?
Hello,
I'm trying to switch from latex to context and I'm trying to
port the book class from latex to a context document.
Right now I'm working on the chapter def and I have:
\definetext[chapter][footer][pagenumber]
\setuphead[chapter][
header=empty, footer=chapter,
textstyle=bold,
numberstyle=bold,
numbercommand=Chapter ,
textcommand={\bfc},
after={\blank[4*big]}]
But this doesn't give a newline after the chapter number. If I change
textcommand={\bfc},
to
textcommand={\\ \bfc},
I do get a newline, but then the chapter title is not aligned to the
left side of the document? Even if I try to left aline this it does
seem work. :(
What I'm I missing here?
Thanks a lot!
grtz,
--Miek
