Re: [NTG-context] pdf file not found (final question)

No problem with page=1.
No problem with other name for pdf-file (for example pdftest.pdf
instead of 2*8.pdf).
No problem, if pdf-file is in current directory instead of testdir.
Hello,
After some further investigation, I've found that the reason for this problem
is a pdf file in my installation:
/opt/context/tex/texmf-local/tex/context/peter/samples/unten-21478.pdf
So please try o*w instead of 2*8, and you'll be able to reproduce the
problem!
But there is still a difference:
texmf-local:
when using \externalfigure[2*8][page=1] on my installation, I get really
the first page of 2*8.pdf and not the unten-21478.pdf.
texmf-context:
when using \externalfigure[o*w][page=1] you'll get the cow.
So the question is:
- bug?
- or don't ever use * in a filename?
Cheers, Peter

Re: [NTG-context] beta
Fine, I see what's the problem: I can't find my fonts.
I run
mtxrun --script fonts --reload
and
luatools AdobeSongStd-Light.otf
get
d:/ConTeXt/tex/texmf-fonts/fonts/opentype/public/Adobe/AdobeSongStd-Light.otf
But when I run
mtxrun --script fonts --list --file Adobe
I get nothing ironically.
Did I miss something? I've put the texmfcnf.lua under texmf/web2c.

I extract everything from the font package to

did you run mtxrun --generate etc?
Yes, I did. But weird thing happened when I run the command manually again.

Re: [NTG-context] Units fonts and spacing

Will siunits module be used as a base for this or will this be

I don't know what you mean with siunits. Wolfgangs module? We have unit
support in context for along time (also as part of some mathml extensions). So,
we're more talking of an upgrade of the current module (units and digits) and I
will have a look at Wolfgangs code to see what additional support is in there
and we can merge things if needed.
He’s talking about my module. The difference between our modules is that your
use “10 \Meter \Per \Second” for the input while i use
”\siunit{10\meter\per\second}”.
ah, so you explicitly tag the unit
one reason why I didn't do this is that it does not integrate well in
math at that time (superscripts etc) and the mechanism was mainly meant
for schoolbooks (and strongly related to mathml input as well)
There is nothing wrong about two modules with the same function as long as both
do not cause a problem for the module (and i took care of this in my module).
sure
Parts like the number parsing can become part of the core and you provide a
function which others can use to integrate it in their own macros.
indeed
The fundamentals of units are not going to change much, apart from the fact
that we can now parse m/s if needed instead of using the verbose names).
I’m not a friend of the ”m/s” input because you can’t say where a units
starts/ends without adding separators between them, here is a example from
latex’s siunitx package which supports both methods but although the first is
shorter we should rely on the tex method
hm, never seen that one (no time to look into it anyway)
- si{kg.m/s^2}
- si{\kilo\gram\metre\per\square\second}
we can provide the first one flagged as unit mode for dummies but it
will never work out well with
$ a = 123 m/s^2$
so one would always hae to tag the unit then.
Keep in mind that the units module runs on top of synonyms so that one can ask
for lists of used units and meanings of them.
Adding this function is no problem, synonyms can also be integrated in any
other system.
yes
let's discuss it at the conference

See minimal example below, please.

[NTG-context] stray characters in output before bibliography
Hi, I'm new to ConTeXt (from LaTeX). I'm trying it out for a course paper that
I need to write and running into a problem with the output pdf. With respect
to the code below, when I compile it, I get the odd text pubs]References
under the References section heading. I've looked around, but I can't find
anyone having a similar problem. Is this caused by something I'm doing
incorrectly in the ConTeXt code or is it something wrong with the bib module?
For reference: I'm using MacTeX 2010 (up-to-date) on OSX10.6.

\usemodule[bib]
\setupbibtex[database=sources,sort=author, numbering=yes]

Output looks like:
(Something, Somedate) some text.
1 References

1 Title of the book, publisher, etc
