[NTG-context] Re: How to switch between fonts?
Hi Hans,
thanks for the information. I changed my test document accordingly and
deleted obsolete parts from the typescript.
When I use the builtInPostscript or the reencodedPostscript as the
sole body font then the document is typeset correctly. Yet, if I try to
switch the family for example to the reencodedPostscript then the text
that follows after the switch does not appear in the created PDF document.
Do you have an idea?

[NTG-context] Re: How to switch between fonts?
hard to test without those tfm files (i don't want to clobber my system by generating them; also, i never use the p* variants) I created the vf and tfm files with the attached script. Maybe you can setup a local directory? Creating these fonts simply needs the following calls (the files are generated in the current directory!): fonts.sh path-to-afm-dir adobe helvetic ec fonts.sh path-to-afm-dir adobe times ec fonts.sh path-to-afm-dir adobe courier ec fonts.sh path-to-afm-dir adobe helvetic texnansi texnansi fonts.sh path-to-afm-dir adobe times texnansi texnansi fonts.sh path-to-afm-dir adobe courier texnansi texnansi The first three calls generate virtual fonts that are base on raw fonts with default encoding and the last three calls generate virtual fonts that are based on texnansi reencoded raw fonts. (After studying texfont I think that generating fonts based on the default encoding of raw fonts is not possible with texfont.) I think the generate vf and tfm files are correct because they can be used without problems as long as no family switching occurs. Is there a specific reason why the p* variants should not be used? I hoped that they are very similar to what is present in the different Acrobat Reader versions. looking at your map file: there are no pfb files mentioned ... why? I want to use the built in fonts because the size of the PDF documents must be as small as possible. --Stefan font.sh Description: Bourne shell script ___ ntg-context mailing list ntg-context@ntg.nl http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context
[NTG-context] Is there a bug in switching body fonts?
Hi all,
I try to use two different postscript font families. The first family
uses the Acrobat fonts without embedding and without reencoding whereas
the second family uses the Acrobat fonts without embedding but with
reencoding.
For that means I wrote the typescript file below.
When I use the first family only everything works fine. Similarly, if I
use the second family only everything also works fine. Yet, if I try to
switch the body font in a document I get the following error message:

[NTG-context] How to switch between fonts?
Dear font experts! For some weeks I try very hard to generate minimal PDF documents using the PDF base 14 fonts. Now the following problem popped up: The Helvitica, Times, and Courier fonts have 8a as their default encoding. Unfortunately, the 8a encoding is somewhat incomplete because it misses some characters (eg. the degree character). In TeX I use texnansi encoding because it offers most of the special characters that I need. If I use 8a encoding for the PDF document (in order to avoid reencoding) then the degree symbol is typeset by an embedded txsy font. The bad thing about this solution is that this degree character does not take care of \bf, \it, or \bi. Therefore the result is unsatisfactory. If I use texnansi encoding for the PDF document then the degree symbol is typeset nicely. The disadvantage of this option is that now the built-in fonts are always reencoding which make some additional 2kb for the PDF document. I would like to have the reeconded font to be used only if it is really necessary. Now I see two problems: 1. A particual problem in this situation Is it possible to define font synonymes locally (i.e. inside a group)? In that case I could map the virtual fonts that are base on 8a encoded raw fonts into virtual fonts that are based on texnansi reencoded raw fonts. I tried that but it seems that font synonymes are accepted only at the beginning. 2. A general problem Provided that I write a set of typescripts for defining a typeface similar to the postscript typefaces of ConTeXt but based on other (virtual) fonts: is it possible to switch between these two typefaces. The switch must respect the current font characteristics (i.e. \ss, \rm, \tt, \bf, \it, \bi, and size). Thanks for your attention, --Stefan ___ ntg-context mailing list ntg-context@ntg.nl http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context
[NTG-context] Re: My way: Generating Small PDF Documents - more questions
Hi Adam, it now works nicely. One can use the built-in Acrobat fonts without embedding and reencoding simply by not specifiying a postscript encoding when using afm2tfm. In that case the inherent encoding of the font is used and virtual fonts take care of the mapping from the specified TeX encoding (e.g. ec) to the font inherent encoding. Great! --Stefan ___ ntg-context mailing list ntg-context@ntg.nl http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context

[NTG-context] My way: Generating Small PDF Documents - more questions
Hi all,
for some time I try to generate small PDF documents that have no
embedded fonts and do not reencoding fonts. In the meantime I was quite
successful and I wanted to share my insights with others. Comments are
welcome!
I generated new ec-encoded virtual fonts for the standard Adobe fonts
that are based on 8a-encoded raw fonts. In other words, I used afm2tfm
with the TeX encoding set to ec and the postscript encoding set to 8a.
(See below for a batch file that does this job). Then I wrote a small
type script (smallpdf.tex) that defines the necessary font synonymes
(see below). Finally I wrote a map file (smallpdf.map) that prevents the
8a-encoded raw fonts from being embedded or reencoded (see below).
After all these preparations I can now generate PDF documents that use
the builtin fonts. The following example generates a PDF document that
is only 3389 bytes long whereas the corresponding document with
embedding and reencoding is 112966 bytes long! Of course these numbers
are not representative because the document contains only a few lines of
text but uses 12 different fonts.
Finally two issues remain:
1. In which situations is the call of \usetypescript[adobekb][ec]
necessary. I had the impression that it is only needed if the document
contains characters that are not containted in the builtin fonts.
2. I would also like to use the builtin symbol character sets Zapf
Dingbats and Zapf Chancery. Adam Lindsay already showed how Zapf
Dingbats can be used without embedding (cf.
http://homepage.mac.com/atl/tex/). But is there also a possibility to
use it without reencoding?
Thanks for your attention,
--Stefan

[NTG-context] Several questions about format generation
Hi all, in the diverse documentation about ConTeXt installation I find the instruction texexec --make ... --language ... for generating format files. Several questions arise: 1. What is the consequence of selecting specific languages after the --make option? Have the generated formats the same functionality, i.e. do they differ only in the user interface? In particular, do the different formats have the same hyphenation capabilities? 2. In the How to install ConTeXt manual I read that the nl-format is needed for some postprocessing features built in texexec. Is this still valid? The TeXLive distribution of 2004 contains only the cont-en.fmt file. 3. Is using the --language xy option equivalent to the using the \mainlanguage[xy] macro? 4. In case that several format files exist: which one is selected by texexec?

Adam Lindsay wrote: Okay, as far as I know, ConTeXt doesn't have an 8a/Adobe encoding vector defined yet. What does it mean that ConTeXt doesn't have an 8a/Adobe encoding vector? Isn't it enough for ConTeXt that there is an 8a.enc file? (I am prepared to write the necessary typescripts myself.) 2. Can I ommit the 8a encoding in map files when PDF documents are generated (because it is the Adobe standard encoding)? Dunno. But it's worth finding out! :) I installed the Adobe Helvetica fonts in 8a encoding using texfont. Then I removed the download instructions in the generated map files. After that I could generate PDF documents that are rather minimal: no fonts or encodings were embedded. Yet, the results were in some way unexpected. It seems that the 8a encoding really isn't supported by ConTeXt. For example if I say \setupencoding[default=8a] and output the character \char251 then I get a ß in the resulting PDF. I am very astonished to receive that character because in 8a, T1, and texnansi encoding the glyph /ucircumflex is located at that slot. Maybe this has to do with virtual fonts? I still struggle with all these matters. 1. The afm2tfm tool allows to set two different encodings: -p ps-enc and -t tex-enc whereas texfont offers only one encoding. Does texfont use the same encoding for the ps-enc and the tex-enc? 2. What is the meansing of the ps-enc and the tex-enc, respectively?

Hi all! I am on the burdensome path to understanding font handling in ConText. Now I wonder what the consequences are with choosing certain encodings.

What does ConText do if a symbol that is to be typeset is not contained in an encoding? 2.

Hi Hans,
after a lot of experiments I could generate a PDF document where the
built-in Helvetica font is used. Yet, there are some open questions:
1. The \loadmapfile makro seems not to work. I tried lots of variants.
Only direct use of the pdfTex makro \pdfmapfile was successful.
2. In the praeambel I specify the enconding to be ec. Yet, in the map
file I had to define a mapping for an 8r encoded font!
3. Texexec shows some warnings during the run. Maybe they are related to
the second question. The warnings are:

[NTG-context] How to use and not embed the PdfBase14 fonts?
Hi all! I want to generate PDF documents that use the standard PDF fonts (Helvetica, Times-Roman, and Courier) and not to embed these fonts. With my former installation (TexLive-2003 and a ConText distribution of last autumn) this was possible by using the following lines in the praeambel: \usetypescript[adobekb][texnansi] \usetypescript[postscript][texnansi] \setupbodyfont[postscript,ss,13pt] (In addition, I had to configure pdfTeX by updmap --setoption pdftexDownloadBase14 false). After I upgraded to TexLive-2004 this does no longer work! I found that the typescript adobekb was replaced by type-akb. Yet, the encoding texnansi seems no longer to be available (Metafont complains that it can not find: texnansi-utmr8a). Changing the encoding to ec that still is available yields: \usetypescript[type-akb][ec] \usetypescript[postscript][ec] \setupbodyfont[postscript,ss,13pt] Yet, using these lines in the praeambel results in a document that uses the NimbusSanL-Regu font, that clearly has to be embedded. Does anyone know how the standard PDF fonts can be used while not being embedded?

[NTG-context] problems with indented columnized itemization
Hi all,
I try to generate the following output:
Some Label * item 1 * item 2 * item 3
* item 4 * item 4 * item 5
i.e. I want to have a label followed by an itemization that is set in
columns.
I tried several things but did not succeede
1. Variant - a tabulate environment
\starttabulate[|l|p|]
\NC
\inframed[width=\LabelWidth,align=left]{Teilnehmer}\hskip\SepWidth
\NC
\startitemize[columns,three]
\item Bauherr
\item Architekt
\item Bauleiter
\stopitemize
\NC\NR
\stoptabulate
There the following problems: a) the itemization introduces an
additional empty line and b) the [columns,three] parameter is not
considered.
2. Variant - using a narrower
\startnarrower[left]
\startitemize[columns,three]
\item Bauherr
\item Architekt
\item Bauleiter
\stopitemize
\stopnarrower
The problem with this variant is that the coluns do not respect the
right margin, i.e. the items reach beyond the paper.
Has anyone a solution for this problem?

Hi Hans, thanks for your fix. It solves the problem. Will this fix be included in future Context releases? I am still confused why the content of the document directory had an impact on the output routine. (The problem disappeared after I had removed additional *.png files in the document directory. When I copied the superflous images into there again the problem reappeard.) I accept that computing in general and Context in special is kind of an empirical secret science. ;-) Thanks again, --Stefan ___ ntg-context mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context

Hi Hans,
thanks for the additional hints. The width calculation method is very
instructive. Yet, I think I can not use it, because I do not know in
advance what kind of text is used as item labels. Maybe a label text
contains already a comma. Is there another \processXXX-Makro for example
\processampersandlist that can be used (because ampersands can not
appear unescaped in normal text)?

[NTG-context] Re: error with _ in header?
Hi Patrick,
first I want to say that I already spent several hours on that problem
and was happy to reduce the file size to 5215 Bytes. Of course I could
have done further but I thought that the file is now handy enough for
debugging. (I do not know how TeX code is debugged and what tools are
available for that task.)
btw: with the error related to other files in the directory: did you
run texutil --purgeall for testing?
Yes, I removed all temporary files. But the strange behaviour remains:
when all images except that of the used external figure are removed then
the error disappears.

Well, how do you think anybody should be able to debug what you have

You should definitely try to reduce the file size to a minimum,
otherwise it is hard to track the problem down.
minimum is far from 150 kb. And please avoid external figures if
possible (there is cow.pdf hacker.jpg and mill.png for download, so
we can all have the same figures to experiment with).

Hi Patrick,
i do not think that the problem is caused by the header texts. The same
header text definition is used during all the document but the problem
is encountered only at a page with several external figures. In
addition, if I insert a new page in between the figures then the problem
disappears (cf. original bug report).

Hi Adam,
I tried the code of Patrick. It works for Times and Helvetica. Yet, if I
switch to monospace using \tt then Computer Modern fonts are used /
embedded. In addition, all this typescripts stuff is so confusing for me
that I prefer to use my own simple typescript.

Hi Hans,
thanks for the help. I had to enclose the symbol definition part in
curly brackets:
\definesymbol[whatever][{\dontleavehmode\rotate[rotation=180]{\getglyph{ZapfDingbats}{234}}}]
Now the symbol is rotated without causing a new line. Yet, the rotated
symbol appears below the current line:
text text - text

Is there a possibility to specifiy the center of rotation?
Thanks again,

[NTG-context] strange dependency between cbox and whitespace?

I came across the following behaviour: cboxes seem to suppress white

In the following example there is no whitespace output between paragraph

enclose the paragraphs in cboxes then the whitespaces between the

Does anyone know a workaround for this 'strange' behaviour of cboxes?

[NTG-context] Re: proportional column widths in natural tables?
Hi Hans,
thanks for the tip regarding the stretch option. I tried the option and
had the impression that the table is streched if the sum of the widths
of the columns is less then the available width.
Yet, if the sum of the widths exceeds the available width then the table
is NOT shrunk! I tried other values for the option key (e.g. 'fit' or
'{stretch, shrink}') but the table remained too broad.
Is there a possibility to make the table width fit the available width
in any case? My temporary solution now converts the CALS proportional
width weights into absolute widths with small units (e.g. 'pt'), hoping
that the sum of these widths does not exceed the available width.
\setupTABLE[option=stretch]
\setupTABLE[column][1][width=10pt]
\setupTABLE[column][2][width=20pt]
\setupTABLE[column][3][width=30pt]
Best regards,
--Stefan

I hoped the ConTeXt has already a mechanism for this kind of

How to setup documents for german language properly, such that:

You can put this in some local file, the style or in a preamble:

After that, you can do things like:
