Hello,
I started using context recently and have encountered some difficulties where I need some help to get over.
(1) References in math formulas:
\placeformula [Ref]
\startformula
\eqalignno {
...
}
\stopformulaIt seems that referencing to '\eqalignno'-formulas needs some tricks. Is there any (non-)documented way to attach a reference to a line inside '\eqalignno' multiline formula? E.g. a mechanism like \xxx[Ref]
\eqalignno {
...
f(x) &= x^n - 1 & \xxx[Ref] \cr
...
}so one can point to \in{formula}[Ref] and get the
correct reference number subsituted?
(2) Left/right margins of different width in doublesided layout: I invented my favorite layout as in
\setuplayout [location={doublesided,duplex}, marking=off,
top=6mm, topdistance=6mm, bottom=6mm, bottomdistance=18mm,
topspace=18mm,
height=243mm,
header=6mm, headerdistance=6mm,
footer=6mm, footerdistance=18mm,
backspace=46mm,
width=124mm,
leftmargin=12mm, leftmargindistance=4mm,
leftedge=2mm, leftedgedistance=2mm,
rightmargin=28mm, rightmargindistance=4mm,
rightedge=6mm, rightedgedistance=2mm
]\setuppapersize [A4][A4]
\setuppagenumbering [style=normal, alternative=doublesided, location={footer,middle}]
\showframe
and if '\showframe' is active I can verify by ruler that all distances and measures etc. are drawn correctly according to both sides of the printed sheet. (Though it remains to be investigated why only 'backspace=46mm' gives 26mm whitespace at the left paper edge, i.e. the distance from the left paper edge to the left edge of the 'leftedge'.) :-)
Putting \inmargin{Some text} on evennumbered
pages (in a doublesided setup) shows margin area width as
in 'leftmargin' in '\setuplayout'; shouldn't it adapt
itself according to doublesided layout as the margin
frame does in '\showframe'?
(3) Math formulas in footnotes result in "Math formula deleted: Insufficient symbol fonts." I have the same style for margins and footnotes (I hope the following setup does this as was my intention),
\setupfootnotes [style=\tfx\setupinterlinespace] \setupinmargin [style=\tfx\setupinterlinespace, align=right]
and in typesetting formulas in margins this error doesn't occur, i.e. there are sufficient symbol fonts available (whatever it means) :-)
I am using Adobe Utopia text with Palatino math fonts.
(4) HZ-algorithm. This, as well as metafun positional graphics and metapost color transparency, was the reason I started trying out context. My understanding is, HZ gets activated not with
\font\tenrm=cmr10 at 10pt stretch 30 shrink 20 step 10
as documented in 'pre-hz.pdf' at PRAGMA-ADE but using
\pdffontexpand\tenrm 30 20 10 1000
as I noticed somewhere. The question is, are *.tfm files like
cmr10-20.tfm cmr10-10.tfm cmr10+10.tfm cmr10+20.tfm cmr10+30.tfm
enough to get it going, and can be generated manually from *.afm files using 'afm2tfm'?
Though, '\pdffontexpand\tenrm 30 20 10 1000' results in "Missing font identifier." in context... :-)
I am using Context 2003.1.31 with pdfetex 1.10a-2.1 as in tetex 2.0.1 distributed in SuSE Linux 8.2.
Thanks in advance for any help, item (1) is most critical, though.
