Re: [NTG-context] SyncTeX and mkiv

Re: [NTG-context] SyncTeX and mkiv
Hi Mojca, Thanks for your attention. I’ll do some testing with the syntax context —synctex istead of context —synctex=1 and then I’ll report any changes in the behaviour of SyncTeX. Actually if SyncTeX could find in the source a paragraph, or a sctructure like \startformula \stopformula that would be largely enough for most of us (when writing a maths, or physics, book or lecture notes often a formula or an expression is used several times and so finding a specigic one of them through a search in the sourec file is not really convenient).

For example: \setupbodyfont [scola,10pt] \startitemize [n] ... yields a reasonable output: 10. X \setupbodyfont [dejavu,10pt] \startitemize [n] ... the output is ugly: 10.X where the period and the X almost touch. AND if one goes to 100 items, then result is 100.X where the 0 and the X overlap (the period is in the right foot of the X). Using the scola font, the result with 100 is similar to the result with 10 in dejavu, so going to a fourth digit would be just as horrible as with three digits and dejavu. \setupbodyfont [whatever] \startitemize[n,fit] yields 10.X with no spacing in all fonts, and this is pretty ugly unless one also specifies [distance=\spaceamount]. Perhaps this correct (with distance=, by default) as fit should then fit with no spacing. HOWEVER, \startitemize [n] with no other options should simply work correctly out of the box for all fonts and not give such horrible results. I understand now: the default is a fixed offset to the list body that works OK for small itemizations (i.e. one digit) with most fonts and more-or-less well with two digits, but not with dejavu. Choosing the option fit and setting a distance gives a reasonable result, so we cannot call this a bug, but the result by default is rather surprising. Notice that \startitemize[R] works poorly with even less than 10 items. May I suggest that the default spacing (i.e. the list setup) that is used be enlarged a little bit, as two digit numbered itemizations are not rare and dejavu is such a useful font. Indeed, this is obtained with the option broad. Indeed, in the manual, broad (and 2*broad) is used in such examples. Perhaps the fixed spacing that is presently tuned works well with simple symbol item lists and passably with single digit numbered lists, which probably explains why this is the default. Also, I suppose that there is some aesthetic value in having item lists take a fixed, uniform distance by default in a document which is why fit is not a default option. Thus, a design choice (or compromise). Moral: read the manual!

[NTG-context] text alignment in table
Given this table: \starttabulate[|l|l] \NC 8:00\emdash noon \NC Ordering/opening/training\NR \NC \NC Food~preparation\NC\NR \NC Noon\emdash 2:00 PM \NC Luncheon~sales\NR \NC 2:00 PM\emdash 7:00 PM \NC General administration/baking \NR \NC \NC Supplier meeting (this is you) \NC\NR \stoptabulate the Word Food is left justified in the column (good) and the word preparation is right justified (bad). The same problem occurs in the string Luncheon sales. The glyph ~ doesn't help. I also tried the table variation in chapter twenty-two of The TeXbook. That doesn't work in MKIV. My last resort is to introduce a one page pdf from the InDesign-created pdf. But the must be a Context solution. -- John Culleton Wexford Press Free list of books for self-publishers: http://wexfordpress.net/shortlist.html Updated PDF e-book: Create Book Covers with Scribus 1.4.5 coming soon at http://www.booklocker.com/! ___ 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 ___

It seems to be triggered when either after or before contain \blank in \setupnotation.

[NTG-context] Figure-libray/resource library
Hi all! I am working on an older project… Herein a resource-library is used. Now I have the problem, that Context does not find page 103 (resulting in a fatal error: LuaTeX error: PDF inclusion: required page 103 does not exist == Fatal error occurred, no output PDF file produced!). When I put the the figure contained on page 103 as an \externalfigure[mylibrary][page=103], the figure is displayed. — Now I tried to remake the resource library with changing the format from MKII to MKIV. However there seems to be a problem, since I get only two pages of output. Even with the enclosed minimal I get only two empty pages… What to do? test.log Description: Binary data test.pdf Description: Adobe PDF document test.xml Description: XML document Thank you for advice!
