I'm impressed if any math works at all in experimental. Hans and Taco
have just switched to OpenType math and the current state looks like a
nightmare to me. (You can take a look at char-def.lua, math-vfu.lua
and some other files. It all needs to be improved and fixed.)

Hi,
You can also place backgrounds only on left/right pages.
Ok, I'll investigate that. Is it also with overlay?
Yes, overlays are used to put text, graphics etc. behind the text.
You can use different
I'm was planning to write my master thesis in XeLaTeX until I
discovered that ConTeXt can use the XeTeX engine.
I need to use a lot of Hebrew - so Right to Left typing - and some
linguistic glyphs and stuff.
But from the wiki I understand there are still some issues with

Hi,
Like the bookmarks may result in some strangeness in certain documents
Can someone tell me what kind of strangeness?
Many features like dvi / metapost may produce strange result. you can
search the mailing list and you can find plenty of them.
And XeTeX can't use certain specials and
Thanks for the answers!
Especially the tip about searching the mailing list!
And if not, why should (or shouldn't) I use MarkIV over XeTeX?
Since XeTeX does not provide most of the LuaTeX features.
Does LuaTeX support right to left utf-8 Hebrew typing with ttf/otf fonts?
Would it be (much)

LuaTeX has more features for RTL than XeTeX because it's one of the
goals of the LuaTeX project.

So I wonder: Is it possible to use MarkIV and XeTeX engine at the same

you could use both at the same time, but xetex uses mkii and

Hi,
the experimental branch of the garden distribution has a prelude to the
new math font subsystem
- less definitions, so faster (but some things might not yet work)
- unicode math (but mojca, aditya, taco and i are in the process of
checking and completing the definitions)
- faster
After upgrading, \chem{CO_2} still gives me:
! Font \*palatino10ptmmmrrm* has only 7 fontdimen parameters.

Hi,
this http://wiki.contextgarden.net/otfinst did it and it actually
worked quite well, thanks a lot.
good to know :-)
it even took care of the dashes
problem. do you know how to default to old style numerals the 'osf'
doesn't seem to work, and i'm certain that the font supports it.
Hi all,
Tomorrow I will try to modify my muse-tex2png.el file so it uses the pdf
output of context (or texexec), then convert to make a png file, instead
of dvipng: I use this already for graphics (metapost or pgf) and it will
probably be a better tool.
Please Mojca no hard work on dvipng until
i also have a question; why can't i use different fonts in
\def\myCommand#1#2{{\ss\sc #1}{\rm\sc #2}{\ss\sc\bf #1}{\rm\sc\bf #2}}
\setuphead[part][command=\myCommand]
the font commands are simply ignored. I don't want to have to resort to
using numberstyle and textstyle.
Thanks

Hi all,
I am looking for ideas of how to capture a typeset page (as it would appear
in the resulting pdf output) into a box instead of actually shipping it out
directly, if it is possible. I would like to take advantage of ConTeXt's
layout features including layers, otherwise I would just create
Hi, Hans,
please test the following formulas. All of them come from my thesis,
and MKII typeset them right. MKIV produce the wrong result.
I am using the nightly build from w32tex since the luatex binary in
