[NTG-context] Using newly defined sections
Hi, I'm a ConTeXt newbie. I've read the read the chapter of the manual on sectioning. I understand that it is possible to create a new type of section using \definesection and setup section but how do I insert an instance of my new section into my documents? With predefined sections I can use commands such as \section, \chapter, etc.. The reason I want to define and use a new section is so that I may use it as a substitute for LaTeX's \author. I'm publishing an academic journal for which I need to be able to include author's' names in the header and in the TOC. Defining a new section seemed to be the obvious solution, but I don't know how to put it into practice. If create a new section how do I put it to use in my documents? Any suggestions?

At that point I don't need the particular post any more. If instead we are to use the wiki, then someone (not me) needs to explain the ins and outs of wikidom, create a page etc. as outlined in my first paragraph. I have created a page for errata in the ConTeXt-EN manual, here: http://wiki.contextgarden.net/ConTeXtEN_Errata The relevant ins and outs of Wikidom should be fairly straightforward -- to add an erratum, click on the edit link at the top of the page, and then add your erratum in the edit window (at this point, you should be able to simply duplicate the formatting of an existing item, without needing to know anything else), and click submit. As you note, it's useful to post here about the errata one discovers, so that people know of them (and also so that they can be discussed -- perhaps an erratum is itself in error!). My suggestion would be to post everything here, and include a note as to whether it has or has not been added to the Wiki page. If it hasn't been added, someone will surely add it. The three errata mentioned in this thread are on the page; I'll go back and see what else I find in the archives. - Brooks P.S. I think there should be a page for Errata in general, linked from the front page of the Wiki. (Or, else, the Bugs and Workarounds page should be changed to be Bugs, Workarounds, and Errata) However, I don't have access to the front page of the Wiki to change that; can someone who has access do that? ___ ntg-context mailing list ntg-context@ntg.nl http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context

By sending this memo, I want to inform you that effective immediately, and in adherence to College of the Redwoods Board of Trustees Policy No. 809 Administrative Regulation 809.07, specifically Part III of the Policy Statement Access to Electronic and Information Technology /x-tad-smallerhttp://www.redwoods.edu/district/board/policies/ar/AR80907.Htmx-tad-smaller , all instructional web pages and Blackboard postings must meet Level 1 accessibility standards as defined by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) and Section 508 of the Rehabilitation Act Part /x-tad-smaller1194.22x-tad-smaller. These standards are primarily concerned with the construction of electronic documents including web pages and the readability of those documents by assistive technology used by students with disabilities including students who are low vision or blind. In designing online instructional documents for your courses, please ensure that they meet the specific requirements for accessibility compliance found in both of the following: W3C Checklist /x-tad-smallerhttp://www.w3.org/TR/WAI-WEBCONTENT/full-checklist.htmlx-tad-smaller and Section 508 Checklist /x-tad-smallerhttp://www.webaim.org/standards/508/checklistx-tad-smaller Faculty web page authors may also access the staff of the Center for Teaching Excellence for guidance and assistance in web page and Blackboard development.

I don't know that much offhand. However, with web pages, one of the simpler ways of testing compatibility with screen-readers is using lynx to view the file; I'd think that using one of the pdf-to-text converters on the pdf file would do about the same for .pdf files. It's not a perfect test by any means, but it's a good first start. Given that the TeX-PDF-text pathway is often recommended for getting text out of TeX documents, I suspect it's likely to be reasonably ok. - Brooks ___ ntg-context mailing list ntg-context@ntg.nl http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context
[NTG-context] Problem following OpenType installation basics for ConTeXt article
Greetings (first post), Adam Lindsay's recent article OpenType installation basics for ConTeXt in The PracTeX Journal (http://www.tug.org/pracjourn/2005-2/lindsay) is very well written. Unfortunately, I was unable to perform the first step. As the article specified, I ran the command: $ texfont --ma --in --ve=public --co=torunska --lcdf --pre --va=liga,kern It started off OK, but failed to properly create the map file. Selected output follows: extending map file : E:/MiKTeX/local/fonts/map/pdftex/context/texnansi-LIGA-KERN-public-torunska.map font identifier : AntykwaTorunska-Bold - text - tfm processing files : otf - tfm + enc otftotfm: './AntykwaTorunska-Bold.otf': No such file or directory no mapfile from otftotfm : texfont.map font identifier : AntykwaTorunska-BoldItalic - text - tfm processing files : otf - tfm + enc otftotfm: './AntykwaTorunska-BoldItalic.otf': No such file or directory no mapfile from otftotfm : texfont.map [and so on for each .otf file] So, otftotfm is claiming that the files don't exist, but they absolutely 100% do.
