Thanks for the tip, but I've a slightly more complex layout and it might
need a more generalized solution, see:
\definepagebreak
[mychapterpagebreak]
[yes,header,footer,right]
\setuphead
[chapter]
[page=mychapterpagebreak]
\setuppagenumbering[alternative=doublesided,location={header,margin}]
\setupheadertexts[{My special headertext}]
\setupfootertexts[This is a text in the footer]
\starttext
\chapter {testA} \dorecurse{10}{\input tufte }
\startstandardmakeup \dorecurse{4}{\input tufte }
\stopstandardmakeup
\chapter {testB} \dorecurse{10}{\input tufte }
\stoptext
The page after first chapter and before the markup is empty and thus
shouldn't have any headers/footers, but it isn't.

Khaled

[NTG-context] IV. Talking and Tweaking
Hello, I finally decided to learn lua and start making use of it in ConTeXt. I was quite excited to find examples of interfaces in the fourth part of A New Kind of TeX paper. It would be really useful if someone could give examples how they could actually be used, at least some of them e.g. command.insert, command.hbox, command.vbox, tex.parindent I think it would also be quite useful to propose a limited set of most useful interfaces, something like the Top Ten ConTeXt commands.

[NTG-context] Available fonts and using them
Hello all, I have read many of the documents from the Wiki on using fonts, but I am still not sure of one or two, probably obvious, things: 1) I'm being asked to use Arial font (not my choice!) and I see from searching the context tree that there are .afm files, .tfm files and .map files with 'arial' in the name. Does this mean I can use Arial out of the box? If so, how? I've tried putting \setupbodyfont[arial,10pt] in my environment file, but it does nothing. I've tried various other things as well, copied but only half understood, from the other documents, but none of them work either! I could follow the guide on installing a new font, but if it's already available then I'd rather not! 2) How do I find out what fonts are available out of the box and how do I invoke them?

Hi again ntg-context.
I have been working on my own CV/Resume module. Up until now I've just
been asking about specific bits of the implementation of this thing I
want to do, but perhaps that was a mistake as it hasn't really helped
progress much, so:
What I am trying to achieve is to define some three-argument command
to give a section/subject header and a date, and then a block of text.
The header and date should be on the same line, but aligned in either
direction (subject aligned left, date aligned right)
This block of text underneath it should be indented and able to
include an instance of the same command. Let me try to explain the
desired output in a little monospaced text diagram..
|(Subject)___(Date)|
|__(Subsubject)__(Date)|
|texttexttexttexttexttexttexttext__|
|textmoretextmoretextmoretexttext__|
|__(Subsubject)__(Date)|
|texttexttexttexttexttextexttext___|
|textmoretextmoretextmoretexttext__|
The subject and subsubject parts don't need to literally use
\subject , for example I also tried to use \start(description){...
for this purpose as well but that failed equally. Just something that
works reasonably as a section header.
I promise I have looked in the archives before asking :) for example
http://www.mail-archive.com/ntg-context@ntg.nl/msg2.html
http://www.mail-archive.com/ntg-context@ntg.nl/msg37664.html
http://www.mail-archive.com/ntg-context@ntg.nl/msg11337.html
http://www.mail-archive.com/ntg-context@ntg.nl/msg17276.html
And here is an example of something I was playing with...

\definehead[mysubject][subject]
\defineframed[lrframe][
width=\localhsize,
align=normal,
rulethickness=1pt]
\setuphead[mysubject][style={\bf}]

[NTG-context] bug in MarkIV ? section numbering
Dear all,
the following example :
...

\subsection{bla}

is numbered
1 Blabla
11 bla
The problem appears only if I skip the \section step.
In fact
\chapter{Blabla}
\section{Bla}
\subsection{bla}
gives
1 Blabla
1.1 Bla
1.1.1 bla
Is the first example the expected behavior ?
I would better have think to something like

As Hans says, if you're interesting in integrating XML and RDF in source documents, you need to think of ConTeXt as a lower-level output format; not the other way around. Depending on your needs, I'd consider two options for the source format: XHTML + RDFa, and OpenDocument 1.2 (which will include RDF and RDFa support; likely to be implemented first in OpenOffice 3.2). DocBook is an option too, but does not AFAIK support RDFa. In any case, I'd worry less about the technology, and more about what you need from it. That will make it easier to figure out which approach is best.

[NTG-context] rsync error
Hello, I've been happily using a fairly old version of Context for a while (ConTeXt ver: 2008.08.05 18:47 MKII fmt: 2008.11.14 int: english/english) but decided that I perhaps ought to try to update to something more modern.

Re: [NTG-context] define an incremental personal bullet of item

Dear all,
I'd like to use circled number 1, circled number 2, ... as bullets

There is an explanation how to define a personal bullet in the manual.
For each \item the same bullet is used. But I want bullets
automatically changed to the next character in unicode table.
(For example, the command \startitemize[n]
displays next number as a bullet when the command \item is issued. )
Is there a way to do that?

[NTG-context] sections, subsections, indenting, startnarrower, alignment
I do not understand what you mean. Could you explain?
I stopped trying to use sections because I read somewhere in the
archives that sections cannot be used 'recursively' like this.
I have instead been trying to use definitions.
With regards to other approaches, I have been trying to use several
different dimensions to solve this problem but none of them seem to
work as expected inside the head of a definition inside a narrowed,
such as \localhsize and \makeupwidth, which mangle things in
unexpected ways.
Can anyone tell me however if there is some dimension that corresponds
to the local amount of indentation (made with narrower)?
-A
Wouldn't be easier to achieve this using section personalized section
numbering ?

Amaël

Hi again ntg-context.
I have been working on my own CV/Resume module. Up until now I've just
been asking about specific bits of the implementation of this thing I
want to do, but perhaps that was a mistake as it hasn't really helped
progress much, so:
What I am trying to achieve is to define some three-argument command
to give a section/subject header and a date, and then a block of text.
The header and date should be on the same line, but aligned in either
direction (subject aligned left, date aligned right)
This block of text underneath it should be indented and able to
include an instance of the same command. Let me try to explain the
desired output in a little monospaced text diagram..
|(Subject)___(Date)|
|__(Subsubject)__(Date)|
|texttexttexttexttexttexttexttext__|
|textmoretextmoretextmoretexttext__|
|__(Subsubject)__(Date)|
|texttexttexttexttexttextexttext___|
|textmoretextmoretextmoretexttext__|
The subject and subsubject parts don't need to literally use
\subject , for example I also tried to use \start(description){...
for this purpose as well but that failed equally. Just something that
works reasonably as a section header.
I promise I have looked in the archives before asking :) for example
http://www.mail-archive.com/ntg-context@ntg.nl/msg2.html
http://www.mail-archive.com/ntg-context@ntg.nl/msg37664.html
http://www.mail-archive.com/ntg-context@ntg.nl/msg11337.html
http://www.mail-archive.com/ntg-context@ntg.nl/msg17276.html
And here is an example of something I was playing with...
---
\definehead[mysubject][subject]
\defineframed[lrframe][
width=\localhsize,
align=normal,
rulethickness=1pt]
\setuphead[mysubject][style={\bf}]
\define[3]\CHRONSUBJ
{\mysubject{\dontleavehmode\lrframe{#1\hfill#2}}
\startnarrower[left]{#3}\stopnarrower}
\showframe[text]
\starttext

Re: [NTG-context] Seeking a Deeper ConTeXt: Questions for Initializing
In any case, I'd worry less about the technology, and more about what you need from it. That will make it easier to figure out which approach is best. Bruce Markdown with RDFa on the side will suit quite nicely, thanks to pandoc. The desire for semantical documents sounds like it will be resolved sooner or later with Tagged PDF. Until then the semantics can reside outside the PDF in my case. I consider it only a need inasmuch as I am an archivist by archetype, and so the idea of the best looking documents (the PDFs) being also the most monolithic just goes against my natural grain. For now it is not an urgency, but I do thank you all for the advice and comments! The markdown solution is doubly good because now I see a way to incorporate conTeXt in a web project that centers on language The better rendered the text, the better the project. Ah, the universal adoption of TeX in everything I do may not be far off ;) Regards, John C.
