[NTG-context] XeTeX and LM

[Peter Münster]

Hello,
what is needed to get LM working with XeTeX?
I've no success with such a minimal file (imagine utf8 encoding, which is
not the case in this email):

\startext
à è ö € œ ±
\stoptext

Cheers, Peter

[NTG-context] Palet option in setuptyping not working

[Berend de Boer]

-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA1

Hi All,

(I've repeated this post, because I didn't see any answers. Sample
file included, you can easily check if I'm wrong or right).


It seems user palets don't work (anymore?), just downloaded the new
version but still has the same problem as the version I used before
(aug 2006).

Sample file:

- --
% interface=en

\setupbodyfont
  [postscript,16pt]

\setupcolors
  [state=start]

\setupalign
  [hyphenated]

\definepalet
  [MYcolorpretty]
  [prettyone=colorprettyone,
   prettytwo=colorprettytwo,
   prettythree=colorprettythree,
   prettyfour=colorprettyfour]

\setuptyping
  [TEX]
  [palet=MYcolorpretty]

\starttext

\startTEX
\this \is \a \test
\stopTEX

\stoptext
- --

As you will see, there are no colors anymore.

My tex and context versions:

  This is pdfeTeXk, Version 3.141592-1.20a-2.2 (Web2C 7.5.3) (format=cont-en 
2007.1.4)  4 JAN 2007 20:14
entering extended mode
  ConTeXt  ver: 2007.01.02 13:44 MK II  fmt: 2007.1.4  int: english/english

Live long and prosper,

Re: [NTG-context] placing a tikz/pgf figure

[Willi Egger]

Hi Hasn,

In order to make sure, that the cooperation between tikz and Context 
works okay, you should install pgf 1.10
http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=142562

Further you need to install the Latex package xkeyval.

I hope that will do!

Willi

I'll try xpdf: I need something fast and that watches the file. Starting
acroread on my system takes often up to 15 seconds.

Can you explain which features of setupdelimitedtext you want. Maybe 
they can be implemented by copying things to setupnarrower.

%--8<-

Hi Taco,

I assume you're referring to this thread:
http://archive.contextgarden.net/thread/20061206.202611.e8722446.en.html

However that was a more complicated test case because it involved
the bib module and cite.  Also it referred to problems with
footnotes in vertical mode whereas the new test case includes
the footnote in setupdelimitedtext/right where it appears to be in
horizontal mode.  In fact the new test case is similar to the
workaround actually suggested in:
http://archive.contextgarden.net/message/20061203.141335.f50b33ff.en.html

Changing just \MyMagic in the suggested workaround to avoid \cite gives:
  \definedelimitedtext
[myquotation]
[left={\symbol[leftquotation]},
 right={\symbol[rightquotation]\MyMagic},
 leftmargin=standard]
  \long\def\startcitedquotation[#1]#2\stopcitedquotation
{\bgroup
 \def\MyMagic{~\footnote{#1}}
 \startmyquotation #2\stopmyquotation
 \egroup}
  \starttext
  \startcitedquotation[schmitz2006]
  overly beautiful pusillanimous sesquipedalian longwinded
  \stopcitedquotation
  \stoptext

- which also loses the footnote.

The thread included another possible workaround at:
http://archive.contextgarden.net/message/20061204.095032.227c83ef.en.html
- but that lost all the power of setupdelimitedtext.

Therefore I suggest that my simple test case is still worthy of
consideration:
  \starttext
  \setupquotation[right={''\footnote{First}}]
  \startquotation
  Loses footnote.
  \stopquotation

  \setupquotation[right={''}]
  \quotation{OK}\footnote{Second}
  \stoptext

For those who need footnoted or cited quotations, another workaround
is to \setupquotation[location=text].  This retains the power of
\setupdelimitedtext without running into the bug which I suspect lies
in or near \dostopdelimitedtexpar.  You may have to fiddle with \par
and/or \nospace to get the layout exactly as desired.

OK ... or terminate the argument with a % or a , ... of course I should have 
guessed this!

Many thanks,

Hi Mike,

Can you look through the list archive a bit? There was a
thread begin december last year about the exact same topic.

When someone finds such a thing, can you please also make a tracker
item  for it? When we were still using the collector at the literate
solutions website, I tried to do all of that myself, but it is just
too much work these days.

As a gentle reminder for everybody, here are the urls:

Hi to all,

(thanks for pointing to the sources but I understand better 
proto-Indoeuropean than TeX...:)

In any case, I discovered that the secret lies in:

rulethickness=3pt

non rulethickness no rule at all

The solution is really simple. Move the closing
bracket to the previous line, like so:

   \setuppublicationlist[
 authoretallimit=100,
 artauthoretallimit=100,
 maybeyear=off]

otherwise you assign the value "off" to maybeyear.
This is true throughout context: you have to be careful
about whitespace in arguments.

there was a time that gs did better rendering than acrobat but that wa

also, the latest acrobats (esp v 8) do a pretty good job now on bitmap
