You'd better change TeX's default behavior.
huh?
each language can has its own rules ... spacing after period or comma is
one, but also think of quotes in quotations etc; and, the french have
spacing before and after : ; . , (it has always been a selling point for
tex to be able to deal with it)

Re: [NTG-context] bibmodule (again)
Hi,
I can't fix everything, but I believe I have made some progress.
The new structure and referencing code is totally different from
the old code and I understand less than half of it. What's worse:
I seem to be really bad at explaining to Hans all the things that
should happen wrt. references in the bib module.
Anyway:
Thomas A. Schmitz wrote:
\usemodule[bib]
At this point, please add these three (re)definitions:
%%%
\def\bibrefprefix{}
\def\preparebibreflist#1{\edef\bibreflist{#1}}
\def\docitation#1{%
\iftrialtypesetting \else
\ifdoinpututilities\else
\doglobal\increment\citationnumber
\expanded{\rawreference{}{cite-\jobname-\citationnumber}{#1}}%
\fi \fi
\expanded{\writedatatolist[pubs][bibref=#1]}}
%
If you turn cite compression off, it will now work (somewhat, at least).
With compression on, there is backward compatibility problem in mkiv
that I do not know how to deal with. Si here is the explanation and
then I hope Hans can make sense out of it.
In Thomas' example, in the first run the
\placepublications[criterium=all]
creates a reference 'belfiorepleasure' with value '1', like so:
\reference[belfiorepleasure]{1}
In the second run, the \cite[belfiorepleasure] uses this reference to
typeset the number '1' at that spot. Because the argument to \cite is
actually is a list of references, \cite (via \bibnumref) builds an
internal commalist of references to resolve.
If the citation compression is off, this is a direct list of refs,
and the citation essentially expands into
\def\processitem#1{\in[#1]}
\processcommalist[belfiorepleasure]\processitem
as said, that now works.
But if cite compression is on (which it is by default) the to be typeset
numbers need to be sorted, and this simple solution won't do. Instead,
the citation is expanded into something more like this:
\def\therefs{}
\def\processitem#1%
{\doifreferencefoundelse{#1}
{\addtocommalist{\reftypet}\therefs }
{}}
\processcommalist[belfiorepleasure]\processitem
This only works in mkii at the moment because in mkiv the \reftypet
expands to nothing. It is defined (in strc-ref.tex) as:
\def\reftypet{\currenttextreference}
but it seems that the mkiv version of \doifreferencefoundelse does
not set up the \currentxxxreference macros any more. That is where
I got stuck, and I hope Hans can explain why that doesn't work, whether
it is intentional, and if it is indeed on purpose, what the correct
interface is to get at the 'text' field of a reference in mkiv.
Best wishes,
Taco

Re: [NTG-context] The ultimate (?) float problem
I think I more or less got the idea of what is possible. But let me
describe my project. Maybe you might come up with a better solution.
I'm going to typeset a diary written and drawn by an illustrator and
graphic designer 70 years ago. What is unique, it consists of
handwritten pages which were already composed for publication. So in
fact I have to preserve both the juxtaposition of illustrations and
the text (give or take line or two). As basically the text should not
flow between pages I guess I could set the whole thing with layers
only. The biggest problem seems how to control placement of layers so
that the text inside them is set on the grid. Here is my initial setup
for a single page.
\definelayer [figure][width=\overlaywidth,height=\overlayheight]
\defineoverlay[figure][{\directsetup{figure}\tightlayer[figure]}]
\setupcolors[state=start]
\setupbackgrounds[page][background=figure]
\setuppagenumbering[location={footer,right}]
\usetypescript[palatino]
\setupbodyfont[palatino,14pt]
\starttext
\startbuffer[zapf]
\input zapf
\stopbuffer
\startbuffer[hawking]
\input hawking
\stopbuffer
\flushlayer[figure]
\startsetups figure
\setlayerframed[figure][frame=off,x=25mm,y=43mm]{\externalfigure[cow][width=\textwidth,height=40mm]}
\setlayerframed[figure][frame=off,x=25mm,y=90mm,align=normal,width=\textwidth]{\getbuffer[zapf]}
\setlayerframed[figure][frame=off,x=80mm,y=150mm]{\externalfigure[cow][width=30mm,height=100mm]}
\setlayerframed[figure][frame=off,x=25mm,y=150mm,align=normal,width=50mm]{\getbuffer[hawking]}
\setlayerframed[figure][frame=off,x=120mm,y=150mm,align=normal,width=50mm]{\getbuffer[hawking]}
\stopsetups
\stoptext
Of course, it looks like it's going to take couple of months of rather
tedious manual work so any ideas how to make it easier are welcome.

arthur told me that can arise rounding errors. You have to remember I used to be a mathematician. I say things that are meant to be true, not meant to be helpful :-) If you want to be sure that LuaTeX's output looks right in the most recent versions of Adobe Reader, editing the font is the way to go (although there might be license issues with commercial fonts). Of course conversion is not perfect, but you can't have it both way! Besides, the metrics won't change if you only modify upm; only the outlines do.

Re: [NTG-context] MKIV, fonts, confusion
Rounding errors are not that important in this case, and there are downsides to both (o3-o2 touches *only* control points, so in some sense it is more precise than upm change). True, you can see it that way, too. We really need Karel Píška here :-) What's normally more important is that if you convert to ttf, you will loose all hinting information. Right.

You'd better change TeX's default behavior.

each language can has its own rules ... spacing after period or comma is
one, but also think of quotes in quotations etc; and, the french have
spacing before and after : ; . , (it has always been a selling point for
tex to be able to deal with it)
Not only French, it is also the case for traditional Arabic typesetting,

Not only OOo, InDesign does that too, moreover, someone said even if LuaTeX (XeTeX too) output looked OK in Adobe reader 7, the print isn't OK. On what printer? It's probably a bug in the driver, too. LuaTeX does exactly according to specification, I discussed this strategy with Taco years ago.

Of course conversion is not perfect, but you can't have it both way! Besides, the metrics won't change if you only modify upm; only the outlines do. I should try to convert to Type1 instead That should indeed work if you don't need more than 256 glyphs in the font (are you *sure* you don't?). Arthur what I mean is: chose an encoding convert otf to type1 as is, make a pdf with mkiv check if it's ok.

I've been using ConTeXt for at least five years now, but I've never touched TeX (nor LaTeX nor any others, just ConTeXt). I've got a vague idea what it is about and that's it. Some points though: - background in something else than WYSIWYG editing (What You See Is What You Get = Word, for example) helps a lot. Before I started with ConTeXt I'd already done my share of html and I've learned to do structured documents also in word processing (i.e. mark it heading 1 instead of make that big and black). - I do ConTeXt pretty much with the learn-as-you-go philosophy and when I really have to learn something, I'm pretty determined; most of my ConTeXt usage is at work and if something needs to be done, it has to get done and I can't back off if it seems difficult first. (It took me two days, lot of swearing and a few questions on this mailing list to achieve my first ConTeXt doc in Cyrillic, but I did it in the end. Now it is of course as easy as can be...) - depends on the operationg system and user's backgrouns, too. Those who've used linux/mainframe are probably less likely to be upset by ConTeXt while your average Mac/Windows user may go crazy at the steep start of the learning curve; I'd done some unix and that definitely increased my tolerance. There are days when I swear and yell and curse myself for going over from Word to ConTeXt. But on 9 days out of 10 I pat myself on the back for making the switch.

On Thu, 14 May 2009 14:45:20 +0200 Henning Hraban Ramm hra...@fiee.net scribit: 2009/5/14 luigi scarso luigi.sca...@gmail.com: I would write a french german intro-source for (quasi absolute) newcomers which need to have a working system producing PDF texts. But I know nothing about ConTeXt. On the one hand it's a good idea to write an introduction / a tutorial for something you don't know, because you'll learn it that way. On the other hand it's a very bad idea to write about something you don't know. On the third hand I'm just writing a German introduction for someone who will use ConTeXt MkIV for scripts of a private medical school. As soon as it's usable, I'll release it open source. There are my old intro slides at http://www.fiee.net/texnique/?menu=0-1-1lang=de - but they're from 2003 and thus heavily outdated. Very fine. I will study the source.

Hi,
just in case this slipped someone's mind :)
I still get an error about an undefined control sequence
(\PDFobjectreferenceB) and the footnote marker (star) is not moved
with the footnote (\moveright).
The attached example code (with overprinting) breaks with the
mentioned error. The attached picture shows the problem with the
separated footnote marker. It can be created with the other versions
(without overprinting) of the \NoteNumber and \MyFootnote macros.
it's
\def\MyFootnote#1{\footnote
{\hskip3em \startproperty[overprint]#1\stopproperty}}
sorry, i couldn't resist. \dostartoverprint was the more 'sexy'
alternative ;)
to tell the truth i can't quite remember why i chose this one. but i'm
sure that i have tested everthing related to overprint.
(i'll make \startoverprint which is actually kind of low level
unexpandable but not \dostartproperty which is not intended as user
command)
ah, perfect a nice and melodic user command without any expansion
problems :)
many thanks!

Thanks, but that doesn't change the spacing, in my environment
at least. (I use texlive-context on the testing distribution
of Debian.)
I think the command \ inserts an inter-word spacing,
not an inter-sentence spacing. You can compare whether
USA.\ This is another sentence
gives the same result as
USA\spacefactor1000. This is another sentence
I know there is a typographic style where the inter-word
and inter-sentence spacings are the same. But, by default,
ConTeXt uses a larger inter-sentence spacing than the
inter-word spacing. In such a case, there has to be a means
to indicate an inter-sentence spacing when a sentence ends
with a capital letter and a period.

Ryo
