All,
How do you set up:
\startlinecorrection[blank]
\midaligned{\getbuffer[table]}
\stoplinecorrection
so ensuing lines are not indented?
There is not actual support for that, but this should work:
\let\MYstoplinecorrection\stoplinecorrection
\def\stoplinecorrection{\MYstoplinecorrrection\noindentation}
Best, Taco

[NTG-context] Imposition struggles
Help!
I need to get a book on paper...
Using: ConTeXt ver: 2007.01.18 12:57 MKII fmt: 2007.1.19 int:

Problem:
By means of veroffset and horoffset the arranged pages should be placed
in the center of the sheet.
However, depending on the number of pages, the last sheets get typeset
wronlgy (shifted unexpectedly to the left).
Please try the attached sample file.

Re: [NTG-context] pdfetex 1.40.1 + ghosscript problem? More findings
Good evening.
I found some more puzzling things. I write them here fore anybody who
may be interested. :-)
I tried to typeset a document using two font families: TrueType Gentium
by SIL, and Adobe OpenType Myriad. First I converted Myriad to Type1
using fontforge, then I prepared metrics for all fonts with TeXFont
using ec-lm encoding. I found this:
(1) Any ConTeXt document produced by pdfetex 1.40.1 (even this one:
\setupoutput[pdf]
\starttext
\input tufte
\stoptext
makes my GhostScript (gs Ghostscript 8.15.3 under SuSE Linux 10.1) die
with this error:
Warning: An error occurred while reading an XREF table.
The file has been damaged. This may have been caused
by a problem while converting or transfering the file.
Ghostscript will attempt to recover the data.
ERROR: /undefined in /BXlevel
etc. However, if I make a ps-file out of it using AdobeReader, I can
view/print it with my GhostScript.
The newest Ghostscript (Ghostscript 8.54 (2006-05-17)) doesn't write
this error message but the rest of problems (see below) is the same.
(2) When I typeset my document only with the Gentium font, or only with
the Myriad font, or with a combination of the Gentium and LatinModern,
or the Gentium and TrueType version of Myriad (made fontforge), the
outcome is the same as (1).
(3) If I try to combine TrueType Gentium and Type1 Myriad, my
GhostScript failes to view/print it properly: strange letters appear in
the text.
I've got no idea what's wrong. By the way, my input regime is now utf8.
Do you thing this is problem of ConTeXt, or pdfetex, or GhostScript?
Whom should I tell it?
Yours
Michal Kvasnicka
P.S. I apologize to all of you who are bothered by this topic.

[NTG-context] Module `database' and UTF8?
Good evening.
I apologize that I bother you now so much with my own problems but I
have to rewrite some of my macros right now for some reason.
I found there is a great `database' module. I tried it with ConTeXt
version 2007.01.12 15:56, perl TeXExec 5.4.3, and pdfetex 1.40.1 under
SuSE Linux 10.1. I use input encoding regime utf8, and fonts in ec-lm
encoding. I set it this way:
\defineseparatedlist[CSV]
[separator=tab,%{,}, %quotechar={},
before=\bTABLE, after=\eTABLE,
first=\bTR, last=\eTR,
left=\bTD, right=\eTD]
And call it with \processseparatedfile[CSV][file.csv].
It works well with words without accents. If there is an accented letter
in the file.csv, it failes with this error message:
! Argument of \utftwouniglph has an extra }.

Can you help me to make it work?

Re: [NTG-context] Module `database' and UTF8?
Hello,
you seem to be the first one (beside me and Taco) to complain about
that bug, so perhaps Hans will have one reason more to try to fix it
now (or perhaps to port it to lua, but then you'll have to wait for
some time).
My observations are (were - I'm currently not behind a ConTeXt
machine) as follows:
- 8-bit encodings seem to work OK (I had to convert a few files to
cp1250 just because of that bug, but then it worked OK)
- there are two completely different approaches - one imitates pere
csv (Taco's) and one parses anything TeX-ish and also obeys TeX
commands (Hans's).
- Taco's approach has been fixed (utf-8 worked ok after a patch), so
if you don't need TeX commands inside your tables, set quotechar to
whatever, which will trigger Taco's mode
- Hans's approach has a bug in utf-8 handling. But the problem only
appears if the very first character in the cell is something non-ascii
So in the case of
březen duben květen červen
it's probably only the last word the one which is causing problems
A temporary solution might be to define quotechar (which is probably
what you have already tried) or to wait for Hans to fix it.
I find the module really useful, but I don't understand a bit in that
file (even Taco addmited that it was the worst-readable macro he has
ever wrote ;) I assume that you've seen the MyWay about it
(http://wiki.contextgarden.net/My_Way) - feel free to post any
comments about its unreadability ;).
