[NTG-context] [***SPAM***] Simple Context Application to Cards
This is a trivial appliation for Context, but a useful one. I plan on designed some business cards, but am new to Context. My idea to to have a logo image in the upper left hand corner, with the company name to the right of it. This would be two block elements at the top of the card. In the middle will be the name, and below that the address, tel, etc. -- Regarding the two blocks at the top of the card: Something like the below: logo here Company name here .--. | | | o XYZ Printing Company | | o |This top area is the subject of this mail. | oCard Design Services| . | | | | |First_Name Last_Name | All this below the ... line is done. | | | contact information| | | '--' I take this as two blocks aligned horizontally on the 91mm x 55mm card stock. From my reading the Context options for doing this are: The margins are so small that using \inmarge{\externalfigure[company-logo][width=\marginwidth] } can not work. Which option should I pursue? a.) \startcombination ... \externalfigure + text block \stopcombination a.) \placefigurehere[... force] \startcombination ... \externalfigure + text block \stopcombination c.) \startfiguretext ... \stopfiguretext d.) some other Context mechanism.

[NTG-context] [***SPAM***] simple business card
I used the \startfiguretext macro to place a logo in the top left and company name to the right of it. This works well. The only problem is a Figure 1 and non show up on the result. The none was from the example in the book. But, space is at a premium on a small card and I don't want any taken up by blank lines where an annotation might be like none.

I remember struggling because those examples are a bit complicated to start with, but better than nothing. The nice thing with layers is that once you get it, you can adjust everything by millimeter until it sits just right (and just right for your printer, variations in paper feed may make 1-2 mm differences between printers). And as long as you put each block on a layer of its own, you can move it independently, e.g. move the logo 3mm to the right but keep the text blocks where they are.

[NTG-context] \externalfigure doesn't find mps file in subdirectory
\externalfigure won't find a metapost eps file in a subdirectory, if the mps has the numerical (.1) extension. Here's a minimal example (test.tex): \setupexternalfigures[directory={fig}] \starttext \externalfigure[simple.1] \stoptext where fig/simple.1 is from a simple .mp file that fills a 1-cm box (see below). The resulting test.pdf shows the gray box name : simple.1 file : simple.1 state: unknown Only this combination of circumstances triggers the problem. Giving the full path (\externalfigure[fig/simple.1]) works fine, as does renaming the file to simple.mps (within the fig/ directory), as does using instead simple-1.pdf (made with mptopdf). Thus, I have several workarounds, but it might be useful to figure out what is not working. I've noticed this problem on and off for a while now, but only now made a minimal example. (Is the path-searching code trying to append extensions and directory prefixes at the same time, and thus not finding the file?) This is with MkIV 2013.05.28 from vanilla TL2013. For completeness, here's simple.1, although any file will show the problem equally well: %!PS %%BoundingBox: 0 0 29 29 %%HiResBoundingBox: 0 0 28.34645 28.34645 %%Creator: MetaPost 1.803 %%CreationDate: 2013.08.04:0841 %%Pages: 1 %%BeginProlog %%EndProlog %%Page: 1 1 0 0 0 setrgbcolor newpath 0 0 moveto 28.34645 0 lineto 28.34645 28.34645 lineto 0 28.34645 lineto closepath fill showpage %%EOF -Sanjoy ___ 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 ___

[NTG-context] How to update context modules; thank you, write-up, and a couple of questions
I asked how to update context modules. Thank you very much to Marco for guidance, and I would like to write up how I used his advice to update a module without first-setup.sh. (I use a ubuntu/PPA installation of context and hence don't use first-setup.sh, which would make updating easy). 1. I downloaded the current version of the module (letter; http://modules.contextgarden.net/dl/t-letter-2013.07.31.zip in this case) from http://modules.contextgarden.net/ 2. I already have a personal /home/me/texmf directory (or would have created it). I put the zipped module update in this directory and unzipped it preserving the subdirectory structure. 3. I set the environment variable TEXMFHOME to my personal texmf directory (export TEXMFHOME=/home/me/texmf) 4. I ran mtxrun --script update --modules=letter to tell context where to look for the new version of the letter module. I could now tell from the output that the updated version of the letter module was installed, and I also confirmed from the log file: resolversmodules 'letter' is loaded interfacemacros processed mkvi file '/home/me/texmf/tex/context/third/letter/base/s-cor-01.mkvi', delta 36 interfacemacros processed mkvi file '/home/me/texmf/tex/context/third/letter/base/s-cor-01.mkvi', delta 0 (before the update, the lines above read /usr/share/texmf... instead of /home/me/texmf...) I hope that this write-up is helpful to others. Please feel free to comment or amend if I've misunderstood. I have several questions: (1) Is it possible to tell which version of a module is installed, i.e., that I am using the 2013.07.31 version of letter? (The version of context appears in the log file but not the version of the module.) (2) After I update of the entire context installation, how will I tell context to again use the /usr/share/texmf version instead of the personal version? (3) Could I have done this installation into /usr/share/texmf and used sudo mtxrun... to make the updated module work on a multi-user system? (4) Where can I put personal files that I would like context to use regularly. For example I have three personal files: env_letter.tex which I include with \environment env_letter; a pdf file with my logo; and a pdf file with a scan of my signature. Is there a standard directory to hold such files, and how do I let context know where to find them, for example, with mtxrun? (It seems like a waste to copy them to a new location every time I want to write a letter). Thank you very much.

(The version of context appears in the log file but not the version of the module.) Often modules contain a line like \writestatus{loading}{Gnuplot (ver: 2013.05.13)} which outputs the version. But not all modules do. I don't know of any reliable way to tell the version. Modules do not even have to be versioned, It's up to the module writers. (2) After I update of the entire context installation, how will I tell context to again use the /usr/share/texmf version instead of the personal version? There's no built-in way to achieve that. Since ConTeXt can't tell which version of a module is installed, it can't prioritise a newer version. You have to remember to remove your manually installed module after it gets updated. (3) Could I have done this installation into /usr/share/texmf and used sudo mtxrun... to make the updated module work on a multi-user system? You can use the texmf-local directory.

[NTG-context] Locating pdf files in the texmf directory structure
I asked: (4) Where can I put personal files that I would like context to use regularly. which Marco kindly answered: In the directory TEXMFHOME points to or texmf-local. This works for my personal file env_letter.tex which is called with \environment env_letter.tex.This file env_letter.tex calls the letter module, sets some correspondenceparameters, etc. But env_letter.tex calls two pdf files with \externalfigure (see below). These two pdf files are also in the directory pointed to by TEXMFHOME but they show up in the finished document as gray state: unknown boxes Does this involve tracking as discussed in http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Command/externalfigure ? Thank you very much for guidance. best, Michael % Define logo for the first page header \defineletterelement[layer][head][example]{% \framed[background=logohead,frame=off,align=left]{% \externalfigure[UMA_Seal_200_Maroon.pdf][height=3.1cm]} } \setupletter[ signature={\externalfigure[signature-blue.pdf]} ] ___ 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 ___
