[NTG-context] Setting expansion depth limit for metapost
I'm preparing quite long presentation -- nearly 3000 sides, 900 figures (500 distinct PNG files). I'm using ConTeXt MkIV installed using minimals (2010.03.12 19:49). Recently I'm hitting MetaPost capacity limit on expansion depth: !mplib : mp terminal: ! MetaPost capacity exceeded, sorry [expansion depth=1]. Increasing expand_depth in texmf.cnf and regenerating formats with context --make doesn't help. expansion depth is still at 1 in error message. texmf.cnf in texmf-local I've changed is reported by context as first one in log line starting with mkiv lua stats : used config path What am I missing?

Maybe there is a way to let ConTeXt interpret the CDATA content, at the
moment it is printed verbatim.
What you can also do is to write TeX content in a tex element and
disable xml parsing.
A better way is to minimize your markup and inlcude rules etc. in other

[NTG-context] typescripts
Wolfgang Schuster:
You can apply only *one* feature to \definefontfeatures.
I've seen examples like this:
\definefontfeature
[fea]
[mode=node,language=dflt,script=arab,
init=yes,medi=yes,fina=yes,isol=yes,
liga=yes,dlig=yes,rlig=yes,tlig=yes,
calt=yes,trep=yes,mark=yes,mkmk=yes,
kern=yes,curs=yes]
so I think you mean to say that I can apply only one feature to
\definefontsynonym or to \definetypeface. I tried this and it
checks out. Thanks---it's nice to see hz working. Protrusion is
only on the right margin?
2. As far as I can tell from trying to decode examples, there is some
hidden connection between the first arguments of the second typescript
block and the font switches. So, for example, a secret connection
between SerifBoldItalic and \bi seems to connect Junicode-BoldItalic
to \bi. Fine, but, in all the examples I've seen, there are no more
than two weights and no widths. In some cases, I have five weights
(light, book, medium, semi-bold, bold). How do I set up the
typescript for this and the switches in the text? Must I learn more
pairs like (SerifBoldItalic, \bi)?
You need more typefaces. One for light, another one for condensed etc.

Mojca Miklavec:
Must I learn more pairs like (SerifBoldItalic, \bi)?
Yes, but there are not many (tf, it, sl, bf, bi, bs, sc) and I assume
that they are extensible. See also below.

Maybe I'm wrong, but shouldn't it be possible (I didn't test) to
modify font-unk.mkiv and add a few extra definitions to the following?
(Maybe not modify font-unk itself, but just adding a couple of more
definitons to the typescript.)
\definebodyfont [default] [rm]
[tf=Serif sa 1,
bf=SerifBold sa 1,
it=SerifItalic sa 1,
sl=SerifSlanted sa 1,
bi=SerifBoldItalic sa 1,
bs=SerifBoldSlanted sa 1,
sc=SerifCaps sa 1]
You could add your
in=SerifYourFontVariantName sa 1,
bd=SerifYourOtherFontVariantName sa 1,
And then
\definefontsynonym[SerifYourFontVariantName][YourFontName]
It's true that most people don't do that, but I see no reason for not
extending the model for your particular needs.

Wolfgang Schuster:
The last time i did this you needed for MkIV also
\definefontalternative[in]
\definefontalternative[bd]
but be carefull with the shortcuts, \in is already used (references).
Thank you both. I want to begin experimenting with this, but there's
one thing that still confuses me. If I have a font with say, forty different
combinations of weight/width/shape (5x4x2), I will need to come up with
forty different pairs like:
myNewFontSwitch=SerifMyFontVariantName sa 1,
a strain on the poetic imagination, but possible.
It would be nicer though, if I could change weight/width/shape independently
of each other (then I need have only 5+4+2 switches). For example, when
I see something like:
\rm\tf roman \it italic \bf bold
resulting in:
book roman book italic bold roman,
it's surprising to see that \bf has turned off the italic---you don't
expect a switch
of the weight to have a hidden switch of the shape in it. Could the typescript
be set up with fewer switches, so that:
\rm\tf roman \it italic \bf bold
would result in:
book roman book italic bold italic,
or, e.g.,
\rm\tf (regular book roman) \cd (condensed) \it (italic) \bf (bold)
would result in:
regular book roman condensed book roman condensed book italic
condensed bold italic?
(Also, I'm hoping that having a dozen different sets of font features won't
require twelve times as many switches and feature names as this. I think
there is some easier method for switching---Hans mentioned \addff{}, but
I can't find anything in the docs. If that works, that would make two kinds
of switches, one for some kinds of features and another for other kinds.)

Left and right but quotation marks do not appear so often on the left

\addff, \subff etc. are rather new commands and therefore only documented
in the source, you're free to add them to the wiki.

Re: [NTG-context] xml TeX expansion?
Strange. First ran the Schuster code and got two bold outputs.
Then changing to the Hagen code (xmlraw) the tex-enclosed code gives:
This is bfbold text/bf.
That code doesn't work where the first did. How come?

Re: [NTG-context] xml TeX expansion?
I do not understand the following. Running the Schuster code exactly
as it is, the tex/tex enclosure works. If however I incorporate
the data from file instead of through \savebuffer, then it doesn't work.
What crucial detail am I missing here?

[NTG-context] Footnotes and interaction again
Hi again,
I just ran into the footnote problem again, this time when referring to
labels inside footnotes. As in the earlier thread the issue occurs with
mkiv only.
Example:
---8--
\setupinteraction[state=start,focus=standard]
\starttext
\startfootnote
A label \reference[label:1]{} we will refer to.
\stopfootnote
\page[yes]
\goto{Here}[label:1] we refer somewhere.
It all happens on Page \ref[p][label:1].
\stoptext
---8--
To be precise, you don't actually have to refer to the label, having it
inside a footnote causes the error.
Thanks for any suggestions,
Philipp

[NTG-context] Using external libraries in LuaTeX
Dear All
In a the recent Luatex 0.46.0 announcement
http://tug.org/pipermail/luatex/2009-November/001118.html
experimental support for loading external libraries was reported.
I am running Windows Vista with
ConTeXt ver: 2010.03.12 19:49 MKIV fmt: 2010.3.16 int:
english/english with LuaTeX, Version beta-0.51.0-2010031309 (rev 3479)
I have also downloaded Lua 5.1 from http://luaforwindows.luaforge.net/
and so have Lua5.1.dll installed.
This distribution has a number of interesting extenal libraries
(ie DLLs) that I would like to try out with LuaTeX. If I can make
progress I would be happy to document and write-up my experiments for
posting on the Wiki in case they may be of interest to others. I should
say that my coding skills are somewhat rusty as I've been away from
programming/TeX for a few years... so do please excuse my simplistic
questions :-)
So, I was wondering if anyone has a minimal example they would be
kind enough to share, or can give me a few pointers/guidelines so that I
can start experimenting. In particular, I'm interested to call external
libraries and inject the output from an external library into TeX for
typesetting. For example, is it possible to load a library once, keep
it loaded and access the library functions from different commands
during the TeX run?
In outline...
--- run some code to load the library (initialisation)
--- keeping the library available
--- some commands\definitions to accss library functions
eg \calltolibrary{)
--- make callsto library and pass the output into TeX for
typesetting
I would be very grateful for any guidance/help that can be offered.
Warm wishes to all
Graham

[NTG-context] typescripts
Wolfgang Schuster:
do you need all of your fonts at the same time in your document?
Most of the time, one serif and one sans. I'd be happy to get these
installed. Of course, High quality fonts often come in large sets.
The varying weights turn up most often in the variations between
different kinds of heads, occasionally in other things. Variations in
optical size occur more frequently, besides in heads, in things like
quotations, footnotes, and captions. Smallcaps (and sometimes,
all-caps environments) often turn up in headers. It's nice to be able
to switch easily between roman/italic and other things within
environments like that---it's very nice if things like shape, weight
and so on can be switched independently. It's also very nice if
optical design sizes switch automatically with the current size.
Consider, for example, something like this: a book on film with a header:
Fellini's Roma and 8 1/2. I'm used to setting something like this
in this way:
Fellini's \it{Roma} and \it{\cvfrac{8}{1}{2}}
(where \cvfrac{}{}{} is a macro that gives me a compound vulgar fraction).
The header is itself in smallcaps, so what comes out is:
Fellini's small caps
Roma italic small caps
and small caps
8 italic proportional lining (italic and lining (i.e., uppercase)
because it's a title)
1/2 italic numeratoritalicitalic denominator
all with minimal effort on the part of the writer. It seems natural that way.
Do you plan to switch between oldstyle and lining figures each sentence?
I've certainly done that before, with lining for quantities and
oldstyle for everything else (mostly chapter and page numbers). Of
course, other sorts of numerals turn up a lot too---the numerator and
denominator variants for fractions, the superiors for footnotemarks
and ordinals, and occasionally inferiors as well.
Do you need condensed and regular width together in the running text
or do you want one in the text and the other in the header?
The different widths of my sans is one thing I hadn't counted on using
much (I spend more time in serif) but, since I have the fonts, I
thought it would be nice to be able to use them. More than the
specific uses I've mentioned above, I'm used to the freedom of being
able to use what I have when the need arises.
ConTeXt is not a DTP program and has a completely different concept.
I'm aware of that. I've been using LaTeX for fifteen years now. I
keep hearing about Context and the work with Luatex and I want to try
it out to see whether I can get higher quality. Loading and switching
fonts is just the first hurdle. If it's too difficult to do this in
Context, that's okay. I realize that it's a work in progress and
these things may be improved someday. I just want to get as much
working as I can right now so I can try out more things. I have two
fonts to install. I've been at it for two weeks. I realize it might
take a few more weeks and a lot of work. I know it's not as easy as
dropping them in a folder. That's okay. I'll keep at it.
Before we can give you better answers think about what do want
to achieve and where do you need a certain font feature and style,
when you have a clear picture about this ty to describe it and we
try to help you.
