[NTG-context] multi-page floats
Hi again,
in my current book project there are sets of full-page graphics, where
there’s first a drawing, to be printed on transparent paper, followed
by a water colour picture as background, i.e. a series of
right page: foreground graphic
right page: background graphic
The transparent pages are left out in pagination.
Between chapters (i.e. stories), the following macro does what I want:
\def\DoublePic#1{
\page[right] % foreground picture on transparent paper
\setuppagenumbering[state=stop]\setuppagenumber[state=stop]\par
\resetlayer[bg]
\setlayer[bg]{\externalfigure[#1-fore][height=\dimexpr(\paperheight
+6mm)]}
\setupbackgrounds[page][background=bg]
\strut\par % page needs some content
\page[right] % background picture on normal paper
\setuppagenumber[state=start]\par
\resetlayer[bg]
\setlayer[bg]{\externalfigure[#1-back][height=\dimexpr(\paperheight
+6mm)]}
\setupbackgrounds[page][background=bg]
\strut\par
\page
\setuppagenumbering[state=start]
}
Now, the publisher would like to move the picture pages in the middle
of the stories, i.e. I need them to float here without manual page
breaking.
How can I achieve that?
I’d also appreciate enhancements to my macro above.
(MkIV latest beta on OSX Intel.)
Thank you very much in advance!
Greetlings, Hraban

Re: [NTG-context] Is there some easy way to do tufte-style side note?

The auto alignment of the marginals has to be improved, but the rest looks already quite decent. Please see: https://pub.uni-bielefeld.de/luur/download?func=downloadFilerecordOId=2303165fileOId=2303168 for a full sample document. Nice work! Decent and nice design, good typesetting, I assume some hand work which of course cannot be avoided to make the result pleasing. thank you for the positive feedback. The example thesis has a lot of hand work. However, in the end I would like to have something that looks 95% instead of 100%, but fully automatic. Then, I could output the same text in different output formats (book, handouts for every chapter, e-reader, ...), tweaking every file would cost too much time. Just two remarks to the layout. Figure descriptions set in to the block (narrow column) produces too large spaces in the lines often. Ragged text would suit it better, I think. Seven Thesis were made, so far, and everyone plays a little with the overall design to see how things look when tweaked a little. But justified is not ideal, I agree. Side notes set ragged left (rigth justyfied) on left pages are quite difficult to read, I would make them ragged right (left justified) on all pages and. I guess you want to say [...] it would [not] break the overall design at all ;) I like the look of ragged outer when just looking at a double page from far. It does make reading more difficult. I still cannot decide. In the end legibility should be more important, so ragged right is better like you said. Just wondering, why is Optima-Regular embeded so many times? We wanted to have a sans serif font for the viewgraphs that matches the Palatino (orig. 1948). So we went for Optima (1952-1955 and also from Hermann Zapf). Wikipedia says Optima's capitals (like Palatino's) are directly derived from the classic Roman monumental capital model [...]. I think, it does look good together. We also wanted a TeX Gyre font as main font, so that it is available on every system. Regards, Jano Aditya Mahajan contextified the github sources. It might be good to download the new stuff.

[NTG-context] Math fonts in TeXLive 2012
Hi all, I'm testing some math fonts with ConTeXt in the current TeXLive pretest (2012.05.25 18:21). I'm not sure which are supposed to work with MKIV, but I found typescripts for the following ones in type-imp-*.mkiv which are also included in TeXLive: * Latin Modern * Euler * Asana * Palatino (px) * Times (tx) * Utopia (mathdesign) * Charter (mathdesign) * Garamond (mathdesign) * Antykwa Torunska * Iwona * Kurier * Xits Compiling the example in the attachment I found than Euler and all Mathdesign derivatives are not working. Does anyone know if Millenial will be supported by TeXLive 2012? Also MKII supported Fourier (for Utopia and Schoolbook). What is the status of this font in MKIV? Cheers, Tim P.S. Euler is working in the 2012.05.26 16:40 Standalone version. fonts.tex Description: TeX document ___ If your question is of interest to others as well, please add an entry to the Wiki! maillist : ntg-context@ntg.nl / http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context webpage : http://www.pragma-ade.nl / http://tex.aanhet.net archive : http://foundry.supelec.fr/projects/contextrev/ wiki : http://contextgarden.net ___

In this case \int and \sum are of the same size, so it appears as a design
choice, and more importantly, we can patch the font to change
DisplayOperatorMinHeight.
BTW, what is the status of Pagella Math? Should we default to that instead
of px-fonts?
