Re: [NTG-context] playground for germans

2004-03-23 Thread Willi Egger
Hello Hans,

Hm, how to determine whether I got the right set of files?

I just downloaded the latest beta-context, unpacked it and regenerated 
the formats. Then of course the mentioned line was uncommented.

Can this have to do with the virtual fonts? - Currently I still use the 
"old" fonts.

Kind regards Willi

strange, some kind of nested loading of type-syn.tex

are you sure that you have the right set of files?

[NTG-context] How to rotate a single character on a line?

2004-03-23 Thread Stefan Wachter
Hi all.

I want to use some arrows of the ZapfDingbats fonts. Most of the arrows 
included in this font are directed from left to right. I tried to use 
\rotate to produce arrows directed to different directions. Yet, rotate 
produces new lines.

Example:

\definefontsynonym[ZapfDingbats][zd]
\definefont[Zapf][ZapfDingbats at 24pt]
\rotate[rotation=180]{\Zapf\char234} {\Zapf\char234}

The example is intended to produce an arrow directed to the left 
followed by an arrow directed to the right. The result however is an 
arrow directed to the left followed by a new line with an arrow directed 
to the right.

intended:
<- ->
result:
<-
->
Does someone know how the new line can be suppressed?

Thanks,
--Stefan

Re: [NTG-context] Romanian diacritics

Hello again!
(after quite some time)
I've recently downloaded the special-s.pdf and there
is an example in  Romanian. Now the question: How did
you do the \c{t} and the \c{s} there to use the comma
and not the cedilla? Because in the "standard"
romanian (old typesetting way) these letter used to
have comma and not cedilla (like now when using M$
Word)
so, you want a way to overload the meaning of \ccedilla?

An option is to add \tcomma and \scomma to the encoding vectors and provide 
a romanian language specific that remaps
\tcedilla to \tcomma

What is the default definition of \tcomma ?

[NTG-context] 6 ways to ask for Times-Roman. Are they the same?

2004-03-23 Thread Stefan Wachter
Hi all.

Studying the pdftex.map file I found the following 6 TeX fonts that are 
used for Times-Roman:

ptmr8y, ptmr8r, rptmr, rtxptmr, tir and tmrm108r.

In the "no download" version of the map file, all these TeX fonts are 
mapped into Times-Roman. In the "download" the font utmr8a.pfb is 
embedded for them.

Are they the same? Is there a preferrable one? What role does the 
encoding play here?

Many thanks for your attention,
--Stefan
PS (Background): I try to write a type script for using the 14 base PDF 
fonts.

[NTG-context] Re: page setup

2004-03-23 Thread Vit Zyka
Hallo Hans,

sorry for bringing back two old topics, but they are still unanswered:

1) Willy Egger firstly pointed on empty page with zero on the bottom-left
coner of an additional sheet using arranging command. I have tested with
pretty new context (ConTeXt   ver: 2004.3.16) and this behevior still
survived. Run the next test file and see page 2:
%--
\setuppapersize[A5,landscape][A4]
\setuparranging[2TOPSIDE]

\starttext
  \switchtobodyfont[20pt]
  \dorecurse{2}{Page \recurselevel\page}
\stoptext
%

2) It is possible to sort in reverse order? It means the result of next test
file was: C B A.
% -
\definesorting[address][addressbook]
\setupsorting[address][criterium=all]
\address{A}
\address{C}
\address{B}
\placelistofaddressbook
%-

Thank you for answers
Vit Zyka

[NTG-context] Re: How to use and not embed the 14 PDF standard 14 fonts?

2004-03-23 Thread Stefan Wachter
Thanks for the comments, Alex and Vit!

I now start to understand the relationships. The

updmap --setoption pdftexDownloadBase14 false

command is very useful. I managed to create PDFs without embedded fonts. 
Yet, I did not find a usable typescript that has the necessary settings. 
Therefore it would be of great help if you could attach ready to use 
typescript.
