[NTG-context] Problem in arabic script

I use context+luatex to write farsi texts. A problem that I have been faced is that some characters (those that are in farsi and not in arabic like Gaf, Kaf, Ya and Che) are shown only in isolated form. How can I solve this problem. I use ubuntu and latest context and luatex. Thanks

[NTG-context] Footnotes

Hi, I'm recently testing mkiv/luatex (ConTeXt ver: 2008.07.18 18:38 MKIV fmt: 2008.7.19 installed; compiling with 'context file') for a new project. I don't know if my questions depend on mkii or mkiv specifics. I have some problems figuring out what kind of parameters I can use to setup

[NTG-context] MinionPro Opticals

Hi, does there exist a package (typescript) for Adobe's MinionPro (with optical)? By now I've used LaTeX for MinionPro because of the MinionPro package which has a lot of features ... How can I define a command for setting text in small caps with some user defined tracking value? Best regards,

Re: [NTG-context] last beta and mkiv

Now, the problem is that mkiv suppresses all of the mpost logging so we can only guess at what goes wrong. Next week at TUG we will sit down and try to come up with a way to improve the logging. Would it help if I ran mpost separately? Or is this problem related to ConTeXt integration?
