You should definitely not have the \starttext / \stoptext pair in there.
There should only be one of those in an entire run - they come at the

might be what you're after:

If I understand correctly, the font mechanism in TeXExec has been changing, and different ConTeXt versions rely on different versions of pdfeTeX (not only for font reasons, but also for pdf features). not really, they try to adapt themselves invisible It should be imperative to use compatible versions of both, even though I have no clue how to achieve this -- (on the Mac, Gerben's iinstaller is nicely taking care of this, but I don't know about Windows) normally this is no problem, i run old and new versions alongside; teh biggest change in the latest pdftex is that the locations of the enc/map files have changed (not context related, more tds/texmf); context never used the pdftex cfg file so no problems should be expected there In my recent experience, it was not a good idea to use the latest (March) ConTeXt beta without making sure that your remaining TeX installation (including fonts) is completely up-to-date. As I don't know how easy it is to move to some other 'release' on Windows, I don't know how feasible this recommendation is. Maybe somebody on Windows for whom times works can give you some information which versions he is using, and how to get them. for the transition to latim modern one indeed needs latin modern fonts (zip on our website); making this change has to happen anyway; also, when one uses latin modern as well as context pattern files; one can use more font encodings with regards to hyphenation I also wonder why the pdf made at ConTeXtgarden opens in Acrobat with font substitution -- the fonts should be universally available, I believe. strange, this should not happen with an embedded font Hans - Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | fax: 038 477 53 74 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl - ___ ntg-context mailing list ntg-context@ntg.nl http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context

So I open it in FontForge and - because I'd like to use the kerning

phnr8a.pfb in its respective folders (within my texfm-font tree).
Then I need a mapfile texnansi-helveticaneue.map with the line:
phnr8r HelveticaNeue 4 phnr8a.pfb texnansi.enc
And my test file looks like this:
\loadmapfile[texnansi-adobe-helveticaneue.map]

\definefont[MySecondFont][HelveticaNeue]

The best I can get is

Thanks for the try. I've also tried columns. But the floating mechanism
and columns/tables doesn't cooperate very well...
Maybe there is a way to increment the figure counter by hand? And to add
a label for the added figurenumber? Then I can make the
[2*1]-combination appear as two independent figures.
the only problem then is the caption of the combination. I don't want
that caption, and I don't want the space that is occupied by that caption.

[NTG-context] Chapter numbers in the right margin
Hi all,
Does anyone have a setuphead snipit and definition to place a large
chapter number in the right margin of the page on the first page of
each chapter? I believe this should be similar (but simplier) than
what is done in 'ConTeXt an Excursion' but I wasn't able to find a
definition for that. I'd be quite willing to put this up on the wiki
when I figure it out...
What I have so far doesn't really lead to much flexibility in terms of
positioning. I'd like to be able to set both the horizontal and
vertical position of the chapter number. I'd also like to have the
number shift vertically downwards for each new chapter.
\def\MyChapterText#1{#1
\inright{ \switchtobodyfont[MyTitling, 72pt] \rm \headnumber[chapter] }
}
\setuphead
[Topic, chapter]
[textcommand=\MyChapterText,
style={\switchtobodyfont[MyTitling, 16pt]\sc},
color=black,
number=no,
page=right,
continue=no,
header=empty,
before=\vbox to 4cm\bgroup,
after=\vss\egroup]
Many thanks,
Randall

Use textcommand only for text, numbercommand only for number,
