Re: [NTG-context] A bibliography difficulty

Hello, I am not sure if I understand you correctly, but do you directly edit a bbl file? Normally, a .bib file is made by the user and ConTeXt (and LaTeX as well) generate the .bbl file for you. Your example works for me using the following code \setupbibtex[database={library}]

Re: [NTG-context] Is it possible to define a custom imposition schema? (sure it is, but how?)

As a follow-up, just in case someone will search the archive for a similar problem, this is my “solution”, regardless of the question if the imposition scheme is really suitable for binding or not. It's quite an hack, but it seems to work and is way simpler for a profane like me to create a

Re: [NTG-context] A bibliography difficulty

Thanks - I sorted it out by using a standard BibTeX .bib file. I was trying to do it all in one file, and finding the bib module documentation quite confusing. And for what it's worth, I'm using mkii. -Alasdair On Wed, May 30, 2012 at 4:09 PM, Andy Thomas andytho...@web.de wrote: Hello, I

Re: [NTG-context] bibtex sample file and possible bibtex bug

Hello, I apologize to bumb my own post, but does anyone know, where to put sample.bib? Or did the default search path for bibtex change? The basic example on http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Bibliography_mkiv does not work as well, because of the same reason. I would then try to update the wiki.

In such cases I define a layer and put the individual pieces into the right spot. The layer can be used as a background then. Willi On May 30, 2012, at 2:19 PM, Jan Pohanka wrote: Hello, I'm making a template for company documents and we need to have something similar in the footer

[NTG-context] MetaPost transformation

I've encountered a MetaPost issue, and since many MetaPost users also use ConTeXt (and vice-versa), I am posting this question on both lists. The command show identity rotated 270 yscaled 0.5; outputs (0,0,0,1,-0.5,0) as expected, while the command show identity transformed

Re: [NTG-context] MetaPost transformation

Well then in case anyone needs such a transformation, I've constructed the (non-unique) transformation T t:=angle(f,e); q:=e++f; p:=(c*f-d*e)/q; s:=(c*e+d*f)/(q**2); transform T; T:=identity rotated t xscaled p yscaled q slanted s shifted (a,b); This yields T=(a,b,c,d,e,f). Troy
