I’m constantly struggling with dimension calculations. Is there 
anything I can read about the possibilities and limitations?


e.g. with
\definemeasure[PageWidth][132mm]
none of the following works:
\definemeasure[FlapWidth][0.8 * \measure{PageWidth}]


use \measured (with a "d" to get a dimension)


Only in expressions like that or always?

In https://source.contextgarden.net/syst-aux.mkiv
it looks like \measured returns a dimension, while \measure returns a 
string (\the\measured), is this right?


So I should use \measure{} in setup keyvals, and \measured in dim 
expressions?


Now, when I use calculated measures for a page size, I get:
"""
You can't use '\dimexpr' in horizontal mode
"""


Here’s my MWE:
"""
\definemeasure[PageWidth][132mm]

\definemeasure[FlapWidth][\measured{PageWidth} * 0.8]



\definemeasure[FlapWidth][0.8\measured{PageWidth}]


works

Herbert



\starttext

FlapWidth: \measure{FlapWidth}

\stoptext
"""

Results in:

FlapWidth: 0.0pt.8


Longer example attached.

Re: [NTG-context] font features

Hi,

is there an easy way to get a list of all features that a font has and 
typeset a sample text to see the result of every single feature? There 
probably is, but I couldn't find anything...


You'll get only the features with otfinfo in the terminal. For example:

iMac:~ voss$ otfinfo -f `kpsewhich LibertinusSerif-Regular.otf`
c2sc    Small Capitals From Capitals
calt    Contextual Alternates
case    Case-Sensitive Forms
ccmp    Glyph Composition/Decomposition
cpsp    Capital Spacing
dlig    Discretionary Ligatures
frac    Fractions
hlig    Historical Ligatures
kern    Kerning
liga    Standard Ligatures
lnum    Lining Figures
mark    Mark Positioning
mkmk    Mark to Mark Positioning
onum    Oldstyle Figures
pnum    Proportional Figures
salt    Stylistic Alternates
smcp    Small Capitals
ss01    Stylistic Set 1
ss02    Stylistic Set 2
ss03    Stylistic Set 3
ss04    Stylistic Set 4
ss05    Stylistic Set 5
ss06    Stylistic Set 6
ss07    Stylistic Set 7
subs    Subscript
sups    Superscript
tnum    Tabular Figures
zero    Slashed Zero

Could anybody help me out with the setup and a MWE to get a document 
exactly as the one from Steve Peter in the Practex Journal in 2005 as 
in https://tug.org/pracjourn/2005-1/peter/peter.pdf


I find this one hard to replicate. What is the font type that was used 
for this document ?




His email is at the end of the article ...
