[NTG-context] Discussion: correspondence with ConTeXt
Hi all,
Preface
most of the discussions in the last weeks on the list
concerned LuaTeX and MkIV with the topic fonts, xml and bugs,
currently not implemented functions and bug and in the last
few days also mplib. I will try start with this mail a
hopefully interesting discuassions wuth many people about the
current state to use ConTeXt for correspondence in personal
and business live.
Introduction
Although ConTeXt has many features and can be used for nearly
every type of document with many features to adapt the layout
to ones personal requirements we have still a few places where
something is missing or force us to use another tool. I will
focus myself for the moment on the missing support for a real
module to write letter and other correspondence.
The Past and the present
A few modules had been written in the past to write letter but
wether they are not available like Hans own module or it is to
complicated to use.
Hans own module m-letter.tex was never included in the main
distribution and the documentation [1] was never finished but
it is now possible to find a older version in the list
archives. The strong point on the module are the possibility
to change the size and position of the address and reference
fields but it was nearly impossible to add extra information
like values for sender or to make big changes in the layout.
The second option to write a letter was and is Holger Schöners
letterstyle environment [2], he provided a layout for german
letters with a DIN style and macros to store address and
sender information. What looked like a good solution to me at
first glance had also many disadvatages, the names for the
fields in the refrence line used hard to memorize name like
\lettersenderkey... and no high level interface to set them.
Another point to me which prevented me from using the style
was the hard way to change the layout, the environment
provided commands to change the values but all was done with
simple definition and no setup command.
A few user write their own simple setups and environemnts to
write letter [2,3] but none of them was really confugrable or
provided a real interface.
The future
The lack of any good soution for this topic forced me to write
my own letter module for ConTeXt. I started myself with Hans
letter module and added a extra field to add my own address
but this was at a time where I was still new to ConTeXt and
most of the content in m-letter.tex where confusing to me and
I had problem to adapt the layout to my own requirements.
After I gained a little bit more knowledge in TeX and ConTeXt
is started to write a new module from scratch with the option
to load style files and set the information for the address
and all other information with a better interface.
After nearly one and a helf years and 2 major revisions I have
nearly finished my module and would will make it now available
also to other users. But before I make my last stable version
online I want to discuss a few points with interested users.
The discussion
Before I start to give you information about my module and
give you the chance to mention your own wishes or thoughts
about the inteface I'm interested what do you use currently to
write you own correspondence (letter, invoices etc.).
After this interesting question for me I will now make a few
information about my module available.
The module use by default the definition for german business
letters as layout where the position for the address block and
the reference line are defined. To change the layout for your
own letter I provide the option to change the default settings
with the one for all command \setupletterstyle, you could use
it to set the page layout, the position for the different
blocks for address and sender information and also for the
bodyfontsize and parskip and parindent. To use once defined
for many letter you could save them in so called letterstyle
files which can be loaded either with the module
\usemodule[letter][style=...] or within the letter with the
command \useletterstyle[...].
The lettertext is written between the \startletter ...
\stopletter environment and it is possible to write in
adcouemnt as many letters as you want, you could write serial
letters and use the correspodence modul to save the address
information in a XMl file.
The values for letter are set with the \setupletter command
but this is one of the still open points, the current
implemtation requires sometimes to many lines for just a few
information and I plan to replace it with a simpler system.
Take the following minimal example
\usemodule[letter]
\setupletter
[sender]
[name={Mike Meiers},
address={Mustergasse 12\\25694 Musterstadt}]
\setupletter
[address]
[name={Hans Hansen},
address={Zielweg 34\\78561 Tiny Town}]
\starttext
\startletter
[opening={Dear Hans,}]
letter text
\stopletter
\stoptext
As you can see the opening for the letter is set as optional
argument for \startletter because it is

Anyway, the maps module contains all the code to do everything. And
the same is true for the TUG module. And for quite a few others I have
laying around. Lots of duplicate code all over, so a common framework
would be great. I've been meaning to write one for a long time, but
somehow I never quite get around to actually doing it.
Just saying this to let you know that I would really welcome a module
with commands like \setuptitle, \definetitle, and \placetitle.
I agree with that. It will be really nice to have a module that does a few
simple titles (alternate=(a|b|c), etc.) For one of my personal modules,
I was following something along the lines of the maps module. But I find
Wolfgang's solution on the wiki to be more ConTeXtish than what all other
modules use.
Hi Aditya,
could you use a few lines what do you expect from a
placetitle/placetitlepage
command or a titlepage environment.
Some of the things that I use \placetitle for:
* Writing academic papers. Currenly, I have a macro that I use like this:
\article
[title ={...},
author={...},
publication={...},% This just goes to pdf subtitle
date={...},
bottom={...}, %text placed at page bottom,
%usually current revision number
thanks={...}, %placed on the footer of the first page
]
\startabstract
...
\stopabstract
\startkeywords
\stopkeywords
The abstract environment places a head (Abstract) followed by its
content. The formatting depends on whether it is a journal article, or a
conference article.
keyword also places a head followed by its content.
Currently, what I have is that \article places all its contents, and so do
abstract and keyword. So, I do not have to store anything.
* TUGBoat articles: This uses a style file originally by Hans, which I
have modified considerably, but still uses the same interface.
This uses
\setvariables
[tugboat]
[title={...},
author={...},
address={...},
email={...},
year={...},
volume={..},
number={...},
page={...}]
The title and the author go to the document title. The address and email
go at the end of the article. The year, volume, number, and page go to the
header and footer of the article.
The rest of the article is somethng like
\starttext
\startArticle
\startAbstract
\stopAbstract
...
\stopArticle
\stoptext
This structure is the reason I think something like \setuptitle (or
\setupdocumenttitle) is needed.
* Practex journal, which uses
http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Modules/Pracjourn
* My Ways which use
http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Modules/MyWay
* and finally Maps which use
http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Modules/Maps
Notice that almost all of them so similar things, but in slightly
different manner. What I wish for is a common interface, and I really like
your idea of \setuptitle. In fact, I think that something like that should
be part of the core.
I module should be enogh for the start, makes it easier to test without
the need to create a new relase or replace one of the core files and to
generate a new format file.
The module does not need to take care of all the formatting requirements:
just provide the interface. For a particular publications, the module for
that publication can modify the \placetitle command to do what they want.
With this, the user documentation can just say that use
\setuptitle[title=...,author=..., date=] %and maybe setups={...}
So, we will have a consistent user inteferface for all documents.
What should we do with the abstract, did it depend on the document title ...
In general, the formatting of the abstract will depend on the kind of the
document. Just need something like
\definetitlesubstructure% or something more appropriate
[abstract]
[headtext={Abstract},
headstyle=bold,
headcolor=blue,
headalign=middle,
inbetween=\blank,%between the head and the body
style=small, %for the contents
color=black, %for the contents
]
I would replace headetext with \setuphead[abstract] and the format
for the table of content (is this what do you mean with for the content)
with \setuplist but should abstract use a own command to place the
title \definehead[abstract] or can we use one of the predefined ones
(title -- new page or subject -- if you need a abstract in different languages
on one page).

- xetex: the label in the first graphic appears with bad size.
- luatex: first label in the second graphic appears with bad size and font,
and second label disappears; but if I comment out the label in the first
graphic, the second graphic is as expected.
Any idea?

A much smaller luatex test is possible:

Simple but working solution but a formal german requires a little
bit more work because most of the field use fixed positions whereas
blocks styles are written from top to bottom and each field use only
as much space as the text needs.

Re: [NTG-context] Discussion: correspondence with ConTeXt
Am 2008-04-17 um 16:32 schrieb Wolfgang Schuster: I normally use InDesign for my business letters and invoices. Dou you use a template for your letters. Not an InDesign template file (.idt), but a single document (with master pages) for every purpose (German/Swiss/English, letter/ invoice, private/business) that I overwrite every time. (I save a copy if the matter is important.) LaTeX has two packages to create invoices and we could also have one for ConTeXt but it makes only sense to use it with LuaTeX, TeX's arithmetic to limited for longer calculations. For other purposes I simply write my TeX code with a script, mostly only one file that contains the dynamical data and gets included. E.g. - cover for backup CD/DVDs (that script even has a GUI - it reads a disk; shows the directory tree, so you can select which parts you'd like to be visible; writes a TeX file; calls ConTeXt and opens the PDF) - my address book (pulls and formats data from a MySQL database) - business cards for one big company (I receive an Excel file with personnel data, save it as CSV and convert that to ConTeXt, PDF with one page per person gets imposed and printed on cardboard with pre-printed logo) Another problem were different letter heads for first, odd and even pages. Different header for the first and another one for the following headers is simple and possible with my module. The option to change the layout for odd and even pages is currently not supported but should be possible but it has to be integrated in the normal interface. My sheets have a pre-printed logo, I use the same for all pages of a letter. On the first page I need address and bank data. On even pages (back side) there's no logo, so I don't need the big top border. Normally I leave out the first even page, e.g. my job application starts with an one-side letter, the following data (CV, references etc.) uses front and back page. The application had the additional difficulty that there's the photo on the CV page, and I wanted the title in white *on* the photo... At least in the online PDF - I used modes to produce both printed version (without logo, because that's pre-printed on my sheets) and email version (with logo) (It would have been *much* easier to use InDesign for that stuff, like for most other designs that I do...) This is also possible with ConTeXt because you could setup layers to place content dependent on left and right pages and the page layout could also change for left and right pages as long as you don't change the text width. I used layers and setups, but I had difficulties switching them on and off. And what not - can't remember everything. Greetlings from Lake Constance!

[NTG-context] Roll-Your-Own Stand-Alone (Was re. ConTeXt ultraminimals)
I'm working on ConTeXt+SciTE-on-a-USB-Stick. A downloadable program is still far off, as is a version that can be put on PortableApps.com, but I've gotten to the point of mapping out the basic parameters: • We need to have a start-up program, which will set up the environment and start SciTE and/or a command prompt. • Legacy-free is nice, but if ConTeXt+XeTeX (which I'll call mkiii whether that's an official name or no) requires texexec then we need to include Ruby anyway, so we may as well keep PDFTeX (mkii), BUT: • Since my Windows machine already has Perl, Python, Ruby, I'm going to defer working on that last point. • In fact, I'm going to defer including SciTE also, until I have a working stand-alone ConTeXt… I've put my rsync invocations on the wiki. (Since the calls are so closely tied to the directory structure of the Minimals, I added them to http://wiki.contextgarden.net/ConTeXt_Minimals/Structure as an example of how to use customize them, but I'll move it if folks think it belongs elsewhere.)

First, I used lettre.cls (LaTeX class). It has one really great feature: the vertical spaces are recalculated at every pass, in order to get a last page filled at least to 50%. Without this, you can easily get a second page with only the closing and the signature. Then, for some reason that I forgot, I switched to scrlttr2.cls. And I patched it to get the same minimum-50%-feature. Unfortunately, this patch is no more working with recent versions of scrlttr2...
