Re: [NTG-context] ' doesn't make a prime in math mode (solved)

Solved! It was a bad written own macro that enabled mathpunctuation (decimal comma) automatically depending on the language on every mathematics. I have rewritten it and now all works. Sorry for the noise. I thought it could be that, but when I tried the live context in the garden I wasn't so

[NTG-context] ' doesn't make a prime in math mode

Hi, In the lastest conTeXt, typing a ' in math mode typesets nothing and gives an error (undefined control sequence). You have to use ^\prime, instead. Thanks, Ricard Roca ___ If your question is of interest

Re: [NTG-context] ' doesn't make a prime in math mode

I'm using the last version, installed with ctxtools. My system is TeXlive. I thought it happened because of some config file or macro in my system, so I tested \starttext $f'(x)$ \stoptext with the live conTeXt in the garden, and it gives an error too. Ricard

[NTG-context] XeTeX opentype features don't work

Hi, I can't use opentype font features with XeTeX, e.g. Palatino Linotype:+smcp for small caps. It works with plain XeTeX or ConTeXt with \font, e.g. \font\PALA=Palatino Linotype:+smcp at 12pt \PALA some text... but not with typescripts, like \starttypescript[serif][PalatinoLinotype][uc]

Re: [NTG-context] Microsoft Word - Context

Hi, There are many Word to LaTeX converters, but no Word to ConTeXt converters. Some LaTeX converters, however, are highly configurable, and you can teach them to write {\em instead of \emph{, or \startitemize instead of \begin{itemize}, and so. If you use a MS operating system, with

and the space left at the end of the column, but there is no footnote. Changing \setupfootnotes[location=columns, page, etc] does nothing, but endnotes do work. Is this a bug? Thanks in advance, Ricard Roca ___ ntg-context mailing list ntg-context@ntg.nl

Re: [NTG-context] dashed or dotted lines in tables

Yes, more or less. I meant drawing the normal horizontal and vertical rules that separate rows and columns dashed or dotted instead of continuous, but using TeX itself, i.e. with an option or command from one of the table packages, redefining some internal macro, etc. But I see that's not

[NTG-context] dashed or dotted lines in tables

Hi to all, is there any way to make dashed or dotted lines in a table (instead of continuous) with ConTeXt? Thanks, Ricard Roca ___ ntg-context mailing list ntg-context@ntg.nl http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context

[NTG-context] footnotes and variable rules

Hi to all, In some countries it is traditional that footnote rules have the following behaviour: When a footnote doesn't fit entirely in one page, and has to be continued in the next one, the footnote rule in the second page has to be longer, to show that the footnote doesn't start there, but

Re: [NTG-context] feature request: external figures with XeTeX

Hi, I think \externalfigure support is the only \special feature that still doesn't work with XeTeX. It seems that color, paper sizes and pdf interaction work well. This is not a big problem, because you can use \XeTeXpicfile (for jpg, png and bmp) and \XeTeXpdffile (you can specify width,

Re: [NTG-context] A few questions (mostly about fonts)

Hi! Quick answers: a) Somehow I can't come up with small caps in a Times font. Is this normal? This happens either by using \sc or \setupcapitals[sc=yes] along with \cap. Times font that comes with TeX distros doesn't have real small caps, but \cap should work, as with any font. The only

Re: [NTG-context] infinite paper height

I think that's not possible because of TeX. TeX limits any dimension to 2^30 scaled points (~5.75 m). But that's only the TeX part. I don't know if dvi drivers can combine several TeX pages in one printer page infinitely. Possibly any of the PostScript tools? Ricard

[NTG-context] ConTeXt, XeTeX for Linux and xdvipdfmx

Hi, It seems that some things doesn't work well with ConTeXt and XeTeX for Linux. For example image inclusion (jpg, png, pdf) with \externalfigure or \useexternalfigure doesn't work, but does with xdvipdfmx \special's (\special{pdf: image ...}). Also, \setuppapersize doesn't work (e. g.
