[NTG-context] Which math font for LinLibertine family?

2019-05-14 Thread Tomas Hala 
Hi all,

the font family LinLibertine (ConTeXt from TL2018 and older) does not
contain any math font. 

On the file type-imp-libertine.mkiv there is a (disabled) line joining math
from times family. Is the times math the best for LinLibertine or
would you recommend me something else (from the design point of view)?

What is the best way how to add math to the existing typescript?
(I would like to avoid changing the file from the installation.)

Best wishes

Tomáš

[NTG-context] \includeonly and ConTeXt components

2019-05-14 Thread Denis Maier 
Hi again,

last question for the moment ;-)

With LaTeX we can use  `\includeonly` for partial compilation. The good
thing is that we can still refer to labels from other files, have a
complete TOC, and correct page numbers.
In ConTeXt the project structure is supposed to be used for partial
compilation. But it does not seem to have those features, right? Having
correct page numbers across the individual components would be especially
helpful. Any ways to get this?

Best,
Denis

[NTG-context] Questions regarding project structure

2019-05-14 Thread Denis Maier 
Hi,

I am just testing out the project structure. Let's suppose I have these
files:

- test_env.tex
```
\startenvironment *

\setuphead
[section]
[textstyle=\bf]

\stopenvironment
```

- test_project
```
\startproject *
\environment test_env

\product test_prod

\stopproject
```

- test_prod.tex
```
\startproduct *
\project test

\startalignment[middle]
HEY
\stopalignment

\component test_comp

\stopproduct
```

- test_comp.tex
```
\startcomponent *
\product test_prod
% \project test_project % uncomment this to use the

\section{Test}
\input ward

\stopcomponent
```

>From the documentation [https://wiki.contextgarden.net/Project_structure] I
would assume two things
1. The environment should be used in the component via project=>product.
2. Everything in the product that is not in a component should be used in
the component as well.

Both assumptions seem not be correct. Any hints about this? Am I missing
something? Am I doing something wrong? Or is there a bug somewhere?
Documentation errors?

Best,
Denis

[NTG-context] Compiling multiple files without master document

2019-05-14 Thread Denis Maier 
Hi,

Currently it is possible to process a file with an external environment
file specified via the command line.

```
context file --environment=mydefs
```

Very nice.

Is it possible to process multiple files from the command line without a
master document? Like so:

```
context file1 file2 file3 --environment=mydefs
```

Or should I just use `cat file1 file2 file3 > file` before processing?

Best,
Denis

[NTG-context] XML roundtripping

2019-05-14 Thread Denis Maier 
Hi everyone

I am setting up a workflow for a journal where we will be using JATS XML as
an input format. PDFs should be typeset via ConTeXt. Is roundtripping
possible with ConTeXt? I will perhaps need to write page numbers back to a
XML file (either to the input file or to a new file.).

Re: [NTG-context] context standalone installation broken

2019-05-14 Thread Mojca Miklavec 
Hi,

Massimiliano, thanks for confirming that it works again and I'm sorry
for the inconvenience.

For a strange/unknown reason the SVN checkout got into an inconsistent
state (claiming checksum mismatch), so I started doing some magic to
get it back to a consistent state. In the meantime some files were
removed and the minimals sync (done every 15 minutes or so) was
triggered in the meantime.

(I have never seen a similar error in the past, and git seems to work
more reliably in such cases.)

If anything still sounds abnormal, please let me know.

Many thanks for your reply, Wolfgang.

I see that a more complex method is deployed to get the box sizes.

I simply thought that this could be a bug.

Many thanks four your help,

Hans and Wolfgang,

I think I have found a weird behaviour in ConTeXt (latest beta from

This is a sample of what I want to achieve (thanks to Wolfgang’s help):

 \setuppapersize [A4,landscape,90] [A4]

 \showframe
 \starttext
 \showlayout

If I set "option=max" (instead of "option={none, max}", I get a square
paper of 210x210mm.

These are the right page dimensions in PDF with the sample above:

   /CropBox [ 0 0 595.2756 841.8898 ]

I think it might be a bug.
When you add \setupinteractionscreen to your document ConTeXt uses a 
more complex method to save the page size which includes calculations 
for the different box types. Part of these calculations are the width 
and height of the document and paper but when you rotate one of them you 
get unexpected values for them.


\setuppapersize [A4,landscape,90] [A4]

\starttabulate

Hi!

Many thanks for your reply! Then I stop my playing with it now
(several things work and it looks quite nice!).

I really appreciate any effort in this direction, since I think this
grid+column functionality is a very nice feature to have!!

[NTG-context] context standalone installation broken

2019-05-14 Thread mf 

./first-setup.sh --engine=luatex --modules=all

downloads ok, but then

.../tex/setuptex gives this error:

"/home/massi/context/latest/tex" is not a valid TEXROOT path.
(There is no file 
"/home/massi/context/latest/tex/texmf/tex/plain/base/plain.tex")

provide a proper tex root (like '. setuptex /something/tex')

Re: [NTG-context] Questions on columnsetspan (and grids and backgrounds)

2019-05-14 Thread Floris van Manen 
is this related?

\setuplayout[grid=yes]
\showgrid
\definecolumnset[three][n=3]
\starttext
\samplefile{knuth}
\startcolumns[n=3]
\dorecurse{4}{\samplefile{knuth}\par}
\stopcolumns
\page
\samplefile{knuth}
\startcolumnset[three]
\dorecurse{4}{\samplefile{knuth}\par}
\stopcolumnset
\stoptext


Using the \startcolumnset instead of \startcolumns will overwrite the first 
paragraph at the top of the page
in its second and third column

Hi,

I have for some hours tried to understand how to work with
columnsetspans (I'm trying with an updated lmtx), and have some
questions.

1) Is it only the floats that has the long list of placement options
(given on p. 18 in the columnsets manual), or should they also apply
to columnsetspans and columnsetareas? (I cannot get it to work with
"default=fxtb:2*10" and similar options for other elements than
floats). It would be useful to have it for other type of elements as
well.

2) What is the current correct way to get back on grid after formulas?
The only key that had lead me to something that seems to work in
\setupformulas is "option=depth". Is that the way to go?

3) This is a bit unrelated, but is it possible to set page backgrounds
on specific page. Something like \setupbackgrounds[page][page=3, ...]
(I cannot find any keys for this in setup-en.pdf). Right now I can set
it for an odd and an even page, but then if I want a background on the
page after that, I have to put that code at the place where it will be
used. (I got an error with \startpostponing[+1] ... \stoppostponing)

4) To be a bit more concrete on the first issue: In the example below,
how can I place the columnsetspan at the bottom right? Second and
third column, 10 lines down? I attach the result of running this file.

/Mikael

\setuplayout[grid=yes]
\showgrid
\definecolumnset[three][n=3]

\definecolumnsetspan[two][
n=2,
background=color,
backgroundcolor=lightgray,
]

\starttext
\startcolumnset[three]
\samplefile{knuth}

\startcolumnsetspan[two][default=btrl]
\samplefile{ward}
\stopcolumnsetspan

\dorecurse{5}{\samplefile{knuth}\par}
\stopcolumnset
\stoptext


Hi!

I have looked more carefully at the columnsets manual, and it looks like 
(parts of) the columnsets mechanism is somehow broken at the moment, 
since some of the examples there are not showing what they are supposed to.


the mkii mechanism has been replaced by a new one but it's not 
completely compatible (these placements are actually for floats and 
spans were just a special kind abusing that mechanism)



Can this be confirmed? Is there a plan to get it to work soon again?

i'll put it on the todo list
