Re: [NTG-context] Fonts and other tips for thesis and other academic works
2008/4/16, Suno Ano [EMAIL PROTECTED]: You want to pick a font family which has entire support for mathematical glyphs like for example - Computer Modern Roman or That's Latin Modern (LM) nowadays. - Lucida Bright AFAIK there are also math fonts for Palatino (px), Times (tx?), Helvetica (hx? and commercial) and the Euler fonts that work with different serif fonts.

And soon (I hope) we'll get math support for the TeXGyre fonts as well. As a law student I don't actually need any major math support, but I'll take notice of these as well. I'd suggest a readable serif as body font, I like e.g. TeXGyre Schola (Century Schoolbook) - it's a bit conservative and ill suited for titling sizes - and perhaps a sans-serif for titlings, e.g. LM Sans or TeXGyre Heros (Helvetica).

[NTG-context] mswincontext.zip
Dear gang, There has not been an update to mswincontext.zip since last August... Are there any plans to update this? For years now mswincontext.zip has been my one and only TeX distribution. With the new TeX-Gyre and Latin Modern fonts, as well as the rest of our developments, I think the time is way overdue for a new release.

But if you use abbreviations the 'see ...' entry in the registers shows the value between the brackets in the abbreviation definition. Here is a small example: \definesynonyms [abbreviation] [abbreviations][\infull] \setupsynonyms [abbreviation] \abbreviation [GCc] {\sc gcc} {GNU C Compiler} \abbreviation [GNU] {\sc gnu} {{\sc gnu'}s Not Unix} \starttext \index{Software}Software \seeindex{Apache}{Software}Apache \index[GCC]{\GCc}\GCc\ \seeindex[GNU C Compiler]{\GNU\ C Compiler}{\GCc}\GNU\ C Compiler \placeindex \stoptext I defined the GCc abbreviation with small c on purpose to demonstrate that 'GCc' shows up in the register instead of {\sc gcc}. I tried to look at the file core-reg.lua and thought that the error has to be at if vv[1] == 'e' then -- format reference pagespec realpage flush(template.page:format(class,,,vv[4],vv[5],vv[3])) elseif vv[1] == 's' then flush(template.see:format(class,,,vv[5],vv[3])) but as I know nothing about Lua I gave up pretty soon. Regards, Drazen I played a little bit around with the above sample and thought that putting a second '\' in front of the second argument for the \seeindex command could help as it looks like the abbreviation \GCc looses the backslash when the 'see' entry is generated in the registry. As this was working I looked at the '.toc' file and saw that the key and entry values are enclosed between [===[ and ]===] but the abbreviation \GCc wasn't. I thought that maybe this works like an escaping mechanism and changed the command \mksaveregistersee in core-reg.mkiv from \def\mksaveregistersee#1#2#3#4#5#6#7% class type reference key entry see pagespec {\expanded{\writeutilitytua{ti(jr['#1'],{'#2','#3',\!!bs#4\!!es,\!!bs#5\!!es,'#6','#7'})}}} to \def\mksaveregistersee#1#2#3#4#5#6#7% class type reference key entry see pagespec {\expanded{\writeutilitytua{ti(jr['#1'],{'#2','#3',\!!bs#4\!!es,\!!bs#5\!!es,\!!bs#6\!!es,'#7'})}}} and it worked. I don't know if this breaks something else and if I was right with what I thought but the register is now created correctly and I couldn't see anything weird going on.

This would provide several important bug-fixes and improve compatibility with certain latex packages (I don't know much about the context situation). If you stay with the TL2007 release, it will quickly look quite stale compared to other distributions that are around, and will frustrate users when features that others are using don't work for them. If you're willing to consider this, I can make and tag a branch in our Subversion repository to give you a stable version to use (you'll need to use that rather than the TL repository). Let me know if I should do that. Don't try to grab the latest code from my TRUNK, as that's sometimes a bit too experimental.

ConTeXt would be happy to have the \supressfontnotfounderror fix available (which means: happy to have a binary version of XeTeX later than the one in TL 2007), but should work OK with the old one with some semi-serious time penalty. If one also forgets all the other nice bug fixes in xetex, old LM fonts are the only issue that would really break functionality.
