Re: [NTG-context] Bug in pstoedit 3.44 (was: makempy (pstoedit - gs) hangs)
I'm interested, but it is good to post the explanation so it becomes
part of the public record google can find.
Well, that wouldn't be the first time I report a bug indirectly; so here goes:
When font dictionaries are altered (by changing FontMatrix, etc ...)
in PostScript, it is customary to keep a copy of the original
dictionary, which appears in the modified dictionary as a object
associated with the key OrigFont. Now, if a programmer wants to access
the original dictionary, he / she must of course expect to search the
dictionary recursively; hence the original definition of getorigfont
(which wasn't that bad actually):
% Here the stack must contain a font dictionary
/getorigfont
{
dup /OrigFont known
{
/OrigFont get getorigfont
}
if
}
def
This definition could have worked in other languages ... but not in
PostScript, because of the nature of dictionaries: they're so-called
“composite objects”, meaning that if you copy this object on the stack you get
eaxctly the same physical object (this is a bit like pointers in C); for
further details see the PostScript Language Reference Manual, section 3.3.1
(http://www.adobe.com/products/postscript/pdfs/PLRM.pdf). Anyway, this means
that a dictionary can contain itself, and this was the case with the font at
stake (LMSans by the Latin Modern team, converted from cminch by Knuth). So
retrieving OrigFont yielded the exact same dictionary at each iteration, and
this created the endless loop.
This (somewhat weird) definition of the font only started with
Ghostscript 8.56; this is why the bug didn't happen with older versions
of Ghostscript.
The real bugfix Wolfgang Glunz (author of pstoedit) did was to check
at each iteration if the retrieved OrigFont dictionary was actually
different, thus avoiding the loop, but still looking for the “most
original” font dictionary. As I said, the new code will be incorporated in
pstoedit 3.45 and looks like:
% font getorigfont font
/getorigfont
{ 210 pscover
%
% retrieves the father font of the input font if possible
% returns a font.
%
dup /OrigFont known
% OrigFont is provided at least if Font was generated with makefont
{ 211 pscover
dup % for comparison
dup /OrigFont get ne % ne is a weak check against recursion
% but is was needed from gs8.56
{
/OrigFont get getorigfont
} if
} if
}
def
For people wanting to experiment with pstoedit, you will certainly find the
-pscover switch most useful: it writes to the file “pscover.txt” a unique
number corresponding to a particular chunk of code in the PostScript prologue
(the psinXX file); look for “xyz pscover”, where xyz is a integral number;
this is how I found the bug in the first place.
That's about all. Hope you had fun reading this,
Arthur

[NTG-context] Boxed items don't like sidefloats
Hello all,
here's a test document:
\setuppagenumbering[alternative=doublesided]

\setbox\testbox\vbox{%

\startitemize
\item some test
\item \input knuth
\item \input tufte
\stopitemize
}
\box\testbox
\stoptext
As you may notice, items think the placefigure refers to all
of them, so that if a particular item is bigger than the
figure height, it will wrap correctly around the
(inexistent) box, otherwise it will just side it.
Interesting, the same thing does *not* happen when not going
through a box, but typesetting things directly in the page.
However, for my application I need to typeset the sidefloat
and the itemization in a box, so I hit the bug ...
Suggestions?

So, when I compile this, prod_liminaire has a header in the frontmatter, but it has NO header in the bodymatter. It's the very same file to the very last byte, only in a different sectionblock. And it behaves differently. What's wrong? I'm really at loss over this. I obviously want no header in the frontmatter Parts, that's where my product prod_liminaire normally goes. Thanks in advance!

Re: [NTG-context] extra math symbols and alignment
Hi Wim,
On Tue, 31 Jul 2007, WN wrote:
Hi Aditya
Basically I want to include the RSFS font and some user defined symbols from
txexa as explained in my previous email.
I did some testing with the test code which I send and found the cause of the
problem, however no solution yet.
The cause of the problem lies in the line where I say
\definetypeface[MyFace] [mm] [math] [modern] *[modern] *[encoding=ec]
This will enable the user defined symbols and all the math symbols as shown
via \showmathcharacters are correct.
However all the matrix, mathmatrix environments don't adhere to the aligment
I specify except for the first option i.e.
when I say \startmatrix[align={right, etc }] everything is aligned to
the right but the other aligment options are ignored.
When I substitute *[modern]* with *[default] *as in
\definetypeface[MyFace] [mm] [math] [modern] *[default] *[encoding=ec]
In this instance all the aligment as specified in the matrix, mathmatrix
environments work. However some of the
math symbols like \Delta are incorrect. And my user defined symbols are also
incorrect.
Phew! This was a hard to find bug. First, to illustrate the bug:
\definetypeface[mainface] [rm] [serif] [modern] [default] [encoding=texansi]
\definetypeface[mainface] [mm] [math] [modern] [modern] [encoding=texansi]
\setupbodyfont[mainface,11pt]
\loggingall
\starttext
\startformula
A = \startmatrix[align={left,right}]
\NC 11 \NC 2 \NR
\NC 2 \NC -5 \NR
\stopmatrix
\stopformula
\stoptext
Try with and without the font declarations. With the font
declarations, you lost matrix alignment. The reason is that
\startmatrix uses \scratchcounter, which gets rewritten when using a
font collection other than default. One fix it to replace
\scractcounter in matrix constructions by some other counter, for
example \!!counta.
So, add this to your file (beware of false line breaks in email)

Hans, this needs to be changed in core-mat.tex. I do not know if
something can be done to avoid such errors in future.
Wim, I am attaching a modified version of your file which gives the
correct output. (I needed to make some changes since I did not have
your map file for rsfs). You loose some symbols from the math
collection. I do not know how to add extra math symbol sets without
loosing these characters. Look at math-tim.tex to see how more
families can be supported. But I would suggest waiting for mkiv, where
the limit on font families will be removed and some of this font mess
would be cleaner.

Re: [NTG-context] Fixing/Updating ConTeXt
On Jul 31, 2007, at 10:02 PM, Alex K wrote: This must sound stupid, but how do you update ConTeXt via the command line on Mac OSX? I'm using the MacTeX distribution and Mac OS 10.4.10. I tried (foolishly) to install the newest version of ConTeXt using i-installer, but that screwed up my current installation, so I was wondering if I could overwrite it with a new version. Step-by-step instructions would be very much appreciated! Thanks in advance for your patience and help! -Alex On the command-line: sudo ctxtools --updatecontext Is that steo-by-step enough?
