Re: [NTG-context] How to get a PhD with ConTeXt (+ hard work ;) )
Hi Mojca, Mojca Miklavec a écrit : textext? Did it work? On my computer it hangs after approximately 13 plots. The suggested option is to use sometxt now. textext works for me, all my plots use this option. Even better (faster) if you have a compiled version of plots and only include PDF ;) Ok, but what about font embedding ? I precisely like to proceed the plot as mp code because of the embedding of fonts... I explain: when I began ConTeXt, I included plots as pdf from LaTeX+PStricks and I observed an annoying fact, i.e. the fonts are embedded twice ! For this reason, when I heard of a context (via mp) term, I tried it... with success... Renaud ___ ntg-context mailing list ntg-context@ntg.nl http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context

Re: [NTG-context] How to get a PhD with ConTeXt (+ hard work ;) )
Thanks very much ... I tried it out and it worked. But I guess I'll have to spend some more time fiddling around with the options to make it look similar to what I'm used from the AMSLaTeX package. Cheers, Oliver May I ask a newbie question? How did you create the lemmas? Hello, today, lemmas can be based on description/enumeration mechanism (I believe it's been in ConTeXt since circa January 2006). Descriptions now accept parameter title=yes. Using that, you can provide a title to the description. Have a look into core-des.tex. I found a mysterious startlemma in core-des.tex via the ConTeXt garden source browser but Naturally, the example of lemma definition is commented out ;) Copy \defineenumeration[lemma][title=yes, titlestyle=\bs, list=lemma] into your document and try to use \startlemma{title of the lemma} blah blah \stoplemma Check parameters of descriptions in the manual, you can find some options related to the title mechanism. Yours, D.A. P.S.: I've achieved the same functionality by means of ugly hacks that depend on ConTeXt version strongly. That's why I don't send you my configuration. ___ ntg-context mailing list ntg-context@ntg.nl http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context

Mojca Miklavec a crit: Nice work! I can't read French, but the figures are very nice and content is probably interesting as well ;) Thanks! I didn't know that people were indeed using the module already (I started using it more regularly only recently). dunno (but hope so because of the result...) Now one question: how exactly did you create/include the plots? With "which version of the module"? I don't mind if some of my plots break if I slightly change the interface before officially releasing it, but I don't want other people to have problems with that. You're right. I've used the latest darcs' release (up to the "points added, some options, etc..." patch). For the inclusion, it's better to have an example in mind: file curves.gp set terminal context input textext linewidth .3 size 1.2 set output "curves.tex" set xlabel "$x$ (m)" set ylabel "$z$ (m)" set notitle plot sin(x) with lines lw 2 notitle set xlabel "$t$ (s)" set ylabel "a label" set notitle plot cos(x) file gpsample.tex: \usemodule[t-gnuplot] \setupcolors[state=start] \starttext \processGNUPLOTfile[mybeautifulcurves][curves] \placefigure[here]{none}{ \startcombination[1*2] {\useMPgraphic{gpg:mybeautifulcurves:1}}{$\sin$} {\useMPgraphic{gpg:mybeautifulcurves:2}}{$\cos$} \stopcombination } \stoptext The output is processed using: gnuplot curves.gp texexec gpsample With this method, the gnuplot call delivers a curves.tex file one could keep as long as the plot doesn't change... Can be usefull when you have a big document! ;) I'll write a paper entitled "How to get a PhD with... ConTeXt" asap (I have the summary and the ideas but time is missing these days, as always and, moreover because of my new job...). It'll mainly be a paper about integration (m-bib, gnuplot, mp, etc...) Best regards Renaud PS: what will you do to manage your gnuplot module for ConTeXt ? Include it into official gnuplot ? It's maybe the time to keep it "well managed", with supelec foundry for example... What your opinion ? ___ ntg-context mailing list ntg-context@ntg.nl http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context

Maybe Renaud can tell us a little more about the details of the typesetting? What font did you use and what program did you use to make the plots (I particularly like the fact that the font in the plots is the same as in the text!), it reminds me a little of R plots, but I may be wrong...
