[NTG-context] \setuplayout[location=duplex] not working? (probably since a year)
Hello there. I'm messing around with imposition schemas and I think I've hit a bug or a dropped feature (but documented in the printed manual). Minimal example: \setuppapersize[A5][A4] \setuplayout[location=duplex] \starttext \dorecurse{20}{ \input knuth } \stoptext As far as I can see, the duplex location is ignored, as the page is always put in the left corner.

Dear Joel, For the next time, PLEASE don't try to reply to digest. Please, also don't try to reply to unrelated messages by changing their subject (just because it is easier that placing email of the mailing list into a new template) since that confuses message archives completely. Please, always start a NEW message for a new topic and write or copy-paste ntg-context at ntg.nl into the appropriate field. Don't try to cheat by replying to unrelated messages. (And even if you absolutely must do that, then please, at least DELETE everything else that is not related.) In particular - in case that you are reading ConTeXt mailing list in digest mode, please don't reply to digest, leaving thirty other unrelated messages in the same post. When using digest mode it might also help to add yourself to CC in your own message or to ask people to add you to CC, so that you get the answer directly, can reply in a clean way and don't have to wait for digest to arrive to solve your problem.

[NTG-context] Apology
Good day! I would like to apologize for whatever trouble my earlier post caused the message archive system. Rest assured that no ill intention was behind that. Honestly, I haven't been posting anything for quite a while now, and I have already forgotten how to... At least in a proper way. I was caught up in the middle of something earlier as I was trying to look for a solution to my problem when I posted my query. It was only after Mojca called my attention just now that I noticed that I have not deleted the rest of the unrelated posts in the bulletin that I used to reach the mailing list. Only now did I realize what a mess that has caused. I am still learning the ropes in using ConTeXt MKIV. But instead of asking questions about the things that I needed done, I have done my best to search for the answers myself. Only when I feel (at the time) that my search has been futile do I come to this mailing list for help... And that is as a last resort. To Aditya, thank you very much for your very prompt reply. I already knew the unicode for the recipe sign prior to posting my inquiry, and was hoping there would be another way to do it. At the time of posting, I was having problems typesetting unicode characters in MKIV but soon figured that out by the time I received Aditya's response. But nonetheless, I am grateful for Aditya's help. Cheating, I believe, has a connotation of one bypassing the norms to gain undue advantage over others. To that, I refuse to admit that what I did earlier was cheating. As I have said, I had no intention of disrupting this message board. It was a careless mistake on my part. Anyway, thank you all for your help.

Re: [NTG-context] Spacing for {\cal P} in XITS
Hello, it looks off on my computer (Mac 10.6 with preview and acrobat) and with the context-standalone (from 1 hour ago). However, it does work with TL2011 (not 12). Then, I copied (overwrote) the fonts from TL into the standalone (from /Library/TeX/Root/texmf-dist/fonts/opentype/public/xits/ to ~/context/tex/texmf/fonts/opentype/public/xits/) and deleted the cache. But that did not help, the context standalone still produces the 'too-close P'. I also tried the newest font files from yesterday, but still no luck. Hope that help finding the bug. Andy P.S. Is there more to be considered than only the font files (the .otf s)?

[NTG-context] Is it possible to define a custom imposition schema? (sure it is, but how?)
Hello there. I'd need a custom imposition schema, just like the 2*4*2, but first the sheets will be folded, then inserted in signatures of 16 pages, and then finally bound. (They said the machine can fold only one sheet). I came up with 3 "solutions" (or 3 hacks, as you wish): 1. psutils/pstops 2. layers 3. hack page-imp.mkiv 1. The first solution would be the faster, but after spending a day on it I gave up, because I have endless issue with cropped pages, paper dimension not correctly set, and I only scratched the surface. I don't know if exists some support for psutils (doesn't look so), but I have the feeling that software is pretty dead. 2. Layers: I'm attaching the code below. Does it seem sensible, or is there a better way to do it? (I'll create a template from that, and will loop over every 16 pages with the usual perl hack). It seems to work, even if visually it looks a bit shifted to right (I can adjust it manually). [An alternate approach could be just various \hbox, but maybe the layer solution is better for absolute positioning] 3. page-imp.mkiv would be the best solution (obviously). I've dug a bit into the code, but I'm in deep waters. I can't understand where the sequence of the pages is defined. the \pusharrangedpageSCHEMA seems just to define the position inside the page, not the sequence of the shipped out page. Also, what are \c_page_marks_nx and \c_page_marks_ny? Any hint about how this machinery works?

Re: [NTG-context] Is it possible to define a custom imposition schema? (sure it is, but how?)
Hi Marco, If I understand correctly what you need is a system which is basically based on booklet-printing but each booklet should be restricted to 16 pages. In this case you might try \setuparranging[2*2*4] This scheme put two pages on the front and two pages on the backside of a sheet of paper. Then it uses 4 sheets to complete the section.

No, the scheme is quite complicated (from 1 to 16) because the pages are first folded, then the two *folded* sheets are inserted one into the other, and then signature is bound and trimmed. So the scheme looks so (R means rotated 180°): 13 R | 4 R --- 16 | 1 3 R | 14 R --- 2| 15 9 R | 8 R --- 12 | 5 7R | 10R -- 6| 11 Yes, that's crazy (if you ask me).

Re: [NTG-context] Is it possible to define a custom imposition schema? (sure it is, but how?)
To my knowledge the printer will have more hand-work than accepting that e.g. the 2*4*2 or the 2*2*4 scheme is used. - Again, if I understand you correctly, then the folding machine can only do a single fold. So after assembling the section with two folded sheets still a manual fold must be made along the spine. I expect that the assembly is quite unstable if it has to be stitched/sewn. In the first case one can pick two sheets and fold them twice, resulting in a 16 pages section. Such folded sections are stable for stitching/sewing. Even more easy is the 2*2*4 approach, with a single folding over the spine you end up with a section of 16 pages. This kind of section is reasonably stable for stitching/sewing.

[NTG-context] A bibliography difficulty
In my list of references, I can't get the author or title (of journal article) to print. In my .tex file, I have the following lines: \usemodule[bib] \setuppublications[alternative=ams,refcommand=num,numbering=yes] and in my .bbl file the (so far) only reference is: \startpublication[k=birn06, t=article, a=D.~Birnbache, y=1999] \author{Dieter}{}{Birnbache} \title{The Socratic method in teaching medical ethics: Potentials and limitations} \pubyear{1999} \journal{Medicine, Health Care and Philosophy} \volume{2} \issue{3} \pages{219-224} \stoppublication However, when I typeset the file, the reference list consists of [1] , Medicine, Health Care and Philosophy 2, 219 (1999). I'm a little confused about all the variables, commands and parameters. So - first, what am I doing wrong? Second, are there somewhere out there some example files of bibliography usage (I learn best by seeing what other people have done, and adapting that to my own ends)? Third: can I include the references in the body of the .tex file (as you can do with LaTeX and the thebibliography environment)?

Re: [NTG-context] A bibliography difficulty
Hello, I am not sure if I understand you correctly, but do you directly edit a bbl file? Normally, a .bib file is made by the user and ConTeXt (and LaTeX as well) generate the .bbl file for you. Your example works for me using the following code \setupbibtex[database={library}] \setuppublications[alternative=ams] \starttext Bla\cite{birn06} \placepublications[criterium=all] \stoptext with a .bib file containing @article{birn06, author = {Dieter Birnbache}, title = {The Socratic method in teaching medical ethics: Potentials and limitations}, year = {1999}, journal = {Medicine, Health Care and Philosophy}, volume = {2}, issue = {3}, pages = {219-224} } More information is on the wiki page: http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Bibliography, e.g. why you do not need to use a module any more.
