Re: [NTG-context] Ambitious project (Font Folio)
There are also LinoType, MonoType and ITC pack installed on my machine. So there are thousands and thousands fonts there. Without an automatic font selecting mechanism / script, it will be very difficulty to do that. ConTeXt's font naming mechanism is very different with commercial fonts. digital fonts themselves have their own distinct naming conventions. For example, Frutiger's fonts use numbers to define the weight/style of the font family. Moreover, when company X release a font pack version N+1 and break/fix old font presentation/file names, then you will be very busy fixing those stuffs.

[NTG-context] A few minor questions
Hello, 1) I use \setupindenting[yes, big]. How to make the first paragraph (after the section title) to be indented too? 2) I made a command for abstracts (a few lines in the beginning of the paper, one paragraph only). Please, look at my definition, i'd like to know how to implement it in more elegant, ConTeXt way. \define[1]\Abstract{ \startalignment[middle] \switchtobodyfont[11pt] {\it #1} \stopalignment \blank[big]} Example usage: \Abstract{Присвячено практичному застосуванню алгоритмів параметричної ідентифікації для визначення параметрів технологічного процесу гідроструйного різання} Best regards, Vyatcheslav ___ If your question is of interest to others as well, please add an entry to the Wiki! maillist : ntg-context@ntg.nl / http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context webpage : http://www.pragma-ade.nl / http://tex.aanhet.net archive : https://foundry.supelec.fr/projects/contextrev/ wiki : http://contextgarden.net ___

Re: [NTG-context] Help with book of poetry
Thanks Taco and Henning, The link to the Sample Documents was helpful, especially the biochem textbook. As a web developer, I'm used to learning by reading other people's code. I sure do hope other people will post their documents, with or without commentary. It's the quickest way for me to learn without bothering people.

[NTG-context] PDF grayscale conversion (OT)
I have used to ConTeXt to generate a hefty PDF file with b/w text and color images. Is there a way to convert this file to a PDF file with b/ w text and grayscale images (256 shades)? I know I could always convert the images first and then reset the book, but I was wondering if there was a simpler more direct way before I start doing that. (There are over 70 images.)

Re: [NTG-context] My printer vs. Times New Roman
Dear Vyatcheslav, On Tue, 10 Mar 2009, Vyatcheslav Yatskovsky wrote: I have Samsung ML-1615 laser printer. When I print an MS Word document typesetted in Times New Roman, the printer uses internal (hardware) font resource, and hardcopy is very smooth and nice. When I print a pdf generated by ConTexT, the same font becomes rasterized and looks a bit ragged on a paper. IMHO Samsung ML-1615 is a GDI printer, that relies on PC CPU to do most of the work. Thus the printer is unlikely to have any hardware fonts. There may be settings in your PDF viewer to enable/disable the use of local fonts and something like print text as graphics - you may play with them. But in general PDF document/PDF viewer/Windows GDI printer driver combo may or may not work depending on the astrological conditions. /* Offtopic Is go and get a PostScript 3 printer or use GhostScript, both are dirt cheap an answer backed by the collective wisdom of ConTeXt/LuaTeX/pdfTeX users? */ Sincerely, Michail ___ If your question is of interest to others as well, please add an entry to the Wiki! maillist : ntg-context@ntg.nl / http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context webpage : http://www.pragma-ade.nl / http://tex.aanhet.net archive : https://foundry.supelec.fr/projects/contextrev/ wiki : http://contextgarden.net ___
