type-xtx contains quite some uc leftovers, but I'm not sure if
fixing them is a wise idea or not (backward compatibility).
i dunno either ... this may date from the time that not that many open
type fonts were around, so we may consider dropping it (i.e. we kind of
assume that xetex users use open type)
There are definitions like this one:
\starttypescript[sans][arial][uc]
\definefontsynonym[Arial] [name:Arial][features=default]
\definefontsynonym[ArialItalic][name:Arial Italic] [features=default]
\definefontsynonym[ArialBold] [name:Arial Bold] [features=default]
\definefontsynonym[ArialBoldItalic][name:Arial Bold Italic][features=default]
\stoptypescript
It just predefines some (mostly Mac) typescripts. Some of those
typescripts might be usable in luaTeX as well. I have no idea how many
people have ever used
\usetypescript[arial][uc]
[uc] could be removed, but if these lines are deleted, the documents
will be broken (which is probably true for quite some XeTeX documents
from past which used the old notation). And on the other hand, the
definitions could be made more generic (to be usable in LuaTeX as
well).
Mojca
To Hraban: oh, I did not understand you joke at first :-) Now I see
what you were trying to say with extending the font to the full
unicode range :-) And sure enough - LuaTeX doesn't do that either.
What I meant was - in afm files you have:
C 235 ; WX 355 ; N ordmasculine ; B 38 369 317 710 ;
C 241 ; WX 791 ; N ae ; B 45 -10 741 460 ;
C 245 ; WX 283 ; N dotlessi ; B 75 -10 263 450 ;
C 248 ; WX 328 ; N lslash ; B 20 -10 308 700 ;
C 249 ; WX 497 ; N oslash ; B 55 -39 442 489 ;
C 250 ; WX 792 ; N oe ; B 55 -10 742 460 ;

C -1 ; WX 626 ; N afii10020 ; B 100 0 576 700 ;
C -1 ; WX 626 ; N afii10050 ; B 100 0 576 770 ;
C -1 ; WX 685 ; N afii10018 ; B 100 -10 625 700 ;
C -1 ; WX 685 ; N afii10046 ; B 100 -10 625 700 ;
C -1 ; WX 745 ; N afii10044 ; B 10 -10 685 700 ;
C -1 ; WX 957 ; N afii10045 ; B 100 -10 857 700 ;

C -1 ; WX 626 ; N afii10052 ; B 100 0 576 880 ;
And there is probably no way for XeTeX to access afiiX, whatever
that is, while LuaTeX tries to guess the unicode point from the glyph
name and uses that one when available.
But - I will stop talking about LuaTeX, as I have promised you already
in the last email.

Hello Jean,
You need to add that variable to the list of TEXMF trees as well:
export TEXMF='{$TEXMFPROJECT,$TEXMFFONTS,...,!!$TEXMFMAIN}'
just put it somewhere inbetween, possibly near beginning. (Maybe we
need to add it there by default.)

[NTG-context] problem using protrusion and hz
Hi,
Adytia pointed me to some examples at
http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Protrusion
I tried the following code with a couple of page test page,
-
\definepapersize[specialbook][width=5.5in,height=8.5in]
\setuppapersize[specialbook][specialbook]
\setuplayout[height=7.5in,width=4.5in,backspace=40pt,location=middle]

\setupbodyfont[reset] %line 6
\setupbodyfont[modern]%line 7
%\setupbodyfont[serif,11pt]
\setupwhitespace[4.5pt]
\setupcolors[state=start]
\setupexternalfigures[directory={../marsh-slideshow}]
\setupindenting[none]
\setuphead[chapter][number=no]
\setupheader[state=none]
% Enable colors and activate hyperlinks
\setupcolors [state=start] \setupinteraction [state=start, color=blue]
\definecolor [darkRed][r=.5,g=.0,b=.0]

\useURL[mywebsite][{http://www.walden-family.com/dave}][][www.walden-family.com]
\starttext
...
\stoptext
and I get slightly different results if lines 1 and 2 versus 3 and 4
are in or out, or if both pairs of lines are commented out. If, however,
I try this with the real 215 page book I am compiling rather than
a smaller example, pdfTeX halts 200 or so pages in with a fatal
error saying it has run out of space and saying something more about
a hash table. If I comment out lines 5-7, I don't get the fatal
error but also I don't think I see protrusion and font expansion
happening. The real book doesn't have very much body text but
is does have 215 images with code like
\placefigure{none}{\externalfigure[#1.jpg][width=\textwidth]}
where #1 comes from a macro call.
Any thoughts? (I suppose I can split my source file in half
and find a ConTeXt command to start the page numbering for
the second half a 107 or so and then combine the two PDFs
with Acrobat.)
Best regards, Dave

[NTG-context] perl/Ruby dependency -- how deep?
Two questions came up when I was looking into putting ConTeXt on a USB stick (i.e., as a portable app): 1. Is perl still required for a ConTeXt installation (say, under Windows)? I know texexec is now written in Ruby, but are there other programs in Stand-alone or the Minimals that require perl? 2. I vaguely recall some mention of eventually replacing texexec with a Lua version.

Re: [NTG-context] ConTEXt - produced book __ about typesetting, as an art, to print Beautiful books
Sitting in a Paris restaurant, equipped with WI/FI and after a couple of wine glasses. I really like your work. It would be interesting to see the sources and to learn the tricks (your used). The look is great. Thanks to Hans for the beautiful gift to the World. One final comment. I think the typesetting is fine, technically speaking, but, overall, the spacing is too tight. It is not relaxing. Readers should be more confortable. WHAT IS THE THINKING OF THIS COMMUNITY. I am not a typesetter, but setting type, good typesetting is difficult to express. It transcends words. It's about feelings and type. Personally, I think that Prof.Dr.med. should be typeset differently. How can we accept Prof, Dr. Med, with not spaces in between, perhaps thin spaces.

I do not understand why windows would object to closing a file that doesn't exist (not even how it could be possible for an opened file to not exist). It could be a simple matter of a missing file that somehow luatex fails to check for during opening so it is not discovered until it attempts to close the file, but even if that is true, I have no idea how to debug anything on windows. It could also be a (more complicated) problem triggered by disk synchronisation issues in Windows itself. We have been bitten by those before (what is your windows flavour?)

Another thing that I don't understand - why is the encoding file for
ec loaded? (Did you make any local modifications to the setup?
Anywhere?) What is the map/dvips/tex-gyre/qpl-ec.map doing there?
Just to make sure - what's the version of ConTeXt and LuaTeX that
you're using, and do you have the cont-sys.tex file?
