An index is bound to something, in most cases the next node (often a
character) ... just try to imagine what happens when it it not bound:
text
index entry node
text
Where do you expect a page break? And how robust can that be
implemented? Normally you woudl expect the index to be bound to the
second text (think of broken lines/words). So .. the index commands
tries to bind to the following text.
\showstruts

Apart from notes and delimited text, are there other commands that need

this kind of things are always tricky ... simplify vs ignore and so
there is an experimental option:
\enabledirectives[references.bookmarks.preroll]

[NTG-context] Problem with pdf output for FeedARead.com
Colleagues
A friend of mine asked me to produce a small book of three of her short
stories for FeedARead.com from a word document. On looking at the site
I suggested I do a conversion to pdf since it would look much better and
FeedARead recommend uploading pdf over word as well. So I set about
using Context to produce a simple pdf for upload using the structure below:
\definepapersize[leela][width=5in, height=8in]
\setuppapersize[leela][leela]
\setuplayout[backspace=0.75in,cutspace=0.5in,width=fit]
\setupindenting[yes,medium,next]
\setuppagenumbering[state=stop]
\setupexternalfigures[location={local,default}]
\setupalign[nonhyphenated]
\setuphead[section-3][number=no,align=middle][alternative=doublesided,location=footer]
\setuptolerance[vertical,verystrict]
\setuptolerance[horizontal,verytolerant]
\starttext
\midaligned{\tfd{Title Page}}
\page
FeedAReed blurb and copyright notice goes here.
\setupcombinedlist[content][list={chapter,section,subsection}]
\completecontent
\page[empty]
\setuppagenumbering[state=start,alternative=doublesided,location=footer]
\startsection[title={Knuth}]
\input knuth\par
\stopsection
\page
\startsection[title={Zapf}]
\input zapf\par
\stopsection
\page
\startsection[title={Tufte}]
\input tufte\par
\stopsection
\stoptext
As you can see it's nothing fancy but is produces nice copy. However,
when my friend uploaded to FeedARead she received back this comment:
/Please note that you have uploaded TWO pages of your book per one 5
inch wide x 8 inch high page e.g. on your file there would be two book
pages of print per page and not one per page as required./
I did notice that when viewed in Adobe Reader, V11.0.6, it displays two
pages on the screen at a time but on checking the documents properties
it shows the correct page size so I thought it was OK. I've had a look
on the wiki but haven't found anything obviously wrong in what I've done
above. Is their something I'm missing in \definepapersize or
\setuppapersize? I really don't want to have to tell her to upload the
word doc.
Thanks and Best Wishes

[NTG-context] Insert text at end of every paragraph
Dear list,
I want a text string to be inserted at the end of every paragraph.
I've tried it like that:
\define \par {Endstring\endgraf}

\chapter {Chapter}
\section {Section}
\input knuth
\input zapf
\stoptext
This works, but it results in a lot of additional strings. The string
Endstring should appear on paragraph ends only (it's acceptable to
appear after headings, too).
How can I achieve the desired result?
Is there maybe something like \EveryPar for the end of paragraphs?

You can find it here for example: http://www.myfonts.com/fonts/paratype/literaturnaya/ There is also a free digital version available. (I think you can find it on the CTAN). But all digital versions I know of are not really well-suited for body text (they are quite thin, obviously based on a display size of the original typeface). A derived typeface which is a bit better for text is Quant Antiqua: http://www.myfonts.com/fonts/paratype/quant-antiqua/ While Literaturnaya/Quant are surely the best matches for Soviet typography in general, they may not be the best match for Soviet modernism. Maybe Baltica could fit better: http://www.myfonts.com/fonts/paratype/baltica/ Generally, I suggest to search through the ParaType offerings. They have many nice typefaces, which are not expensive. Thank you very much! On TeX-D-L Ulrich Dirr suggested Academy, Baltica, Literaturnaya, Journal/Sans or Ladoga, all from Paratype. Unfortunately Ladoga and Quant lack the Kyrgyz and Kasakh glyphs that I need. (They have special characters for „German umlaut sounds“ ü and ö, as well as ng). I don’t think Baltica is very legible, even if it fits the style. Literaturnaya seems a bit too light, but as „favourite text face of Soviet typography“ it surely fits the bill. I’ll probably go for Journal+Sans, but I didn’t scan the whole Paratype library yet.

[NTG-context] remove full stop after a title ending with punctuation
Dear List,
If an article is How about this?, in the bib list, it will be printed like
author1, author2, ..., How about this?. Journal name...
I am trying to remove . after ?
From reading documents, I think I should change (bibl-apa)
\insertarttitle{\bgroup }{\egroup. }{}%
Right now it will add . in all cases. Is it possible that I can change
it to conditional statement.
Something like if the original title ends with punctuation, do nothing,
otherwise, add ..
Hope that I made myself clear.
Thank you!
Best,
Peng

That’s wrong - I looked only at the preview picture at Paratype’s. Myfonts shows the whole impressing glyph range: http://www.myfonts.com/fonts/paratype/ladoga/ Even if it doesn’t exactly fit my project I guess I „must“ buy it ;-) Quant Antiqua also has the needed glyphs. http://www.myfonts.com/fonts/paratype/quant-antiqua/ Greetlings, Hraban --- http://www.fiee.net/texnique/ http://wiki.contextgarden.net https://www.cacert.org (I'm an assurer) ___ 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 ___
