[NTG-context] Unexpected changes with pdfeTeX 1.20 (?)
Hi,
while looking closer at the result of typesetting an older (Nov.
2004) document with todays pdfeTeX and context stuff I noticed that
the layout of my TOC changed:
Normally I write all setups in a SetupEnvironment file that is loaded
at the beginning of a project structure.
Like this:
\startproject WLTHR_1
\environment SetupEnvironment_WLTHR
\startfrontmatter
\component Kapitel/Titelei
\component Kapitel/Vorwort
\completecontent
\stopfrontmatter
\startbodymatter
\component Kapitel/Kap_1
\component Kapitel/Kap_2
\component Kapitel/Kap_3
\component Kapitel/Kap_4
\component Kapitel/Kap_5
\stopbodymatter
\startbackmatter
\component Kapitel/Katalog
\component Kapitel/Literatur
\stopbackmatter
\stopproject
But as in SetupEnvironment also \setupindenting is set, now the TOC
gets this indenting too!
Once (2004, before pdfeTeX 1.20 ?) this didn't affect the generated
\completecontent - only the real \component files.
Is this change known? Are there more differences like this, so one
knows what to look for when typesetting older documents with new TeX
(ConTeXt?) files?

A minimal test looks like this:
\starttext
\showframe
\showgrid
\definecombinedlist[content]
[chapter,section][level=section]
\setupindenting[30pt]%
\completecontent% ---
%\setupindenting[30pt]%
\chapter{Kapitel}

\section{Unterkapitel}

- I tested with the inital H and
[Lines=4,Hang=.1,Nindent=20pt,Findent=20pt]. This makes the H itself be
indented too (see enclosed dump). It seems that Findent adds space both
before and after the dropcap, when it only should add after the dropcap.
That was a bug, so, although I promised I wouldn't do this ... here is
version four. ;-)
- The text font seems to be defaulted to small capitals. However, this
is merely one of the conventions how text after a dropcap is set. Other
conventions include e.g. roman or italic caps, roman or italic lower
case etc.
You can set the 'TextFont' parameter to something else.
- Regarding the slope one should be able to set indentation separately
for each line. This depends on the fact that some characters call for a
different type of intendation of the lines - e.g. the character L.
I will keep this in mind for a future extension
- Sometimes there is a need to indent the dropcap slightly itself, e.g.
if one uses a quotation mark before the dropcap. So a parameter to
control that would be great.
You can set the 'Hang' parameter to a negative value.
Greetings, Taco
Just tried the following code:
-
\starttext
\placefigure[right]{none}{\externalfigure[foo][width=4cm,height=4cm]}
Voici a very silly \input tufte
\blank[1cm]
\placefigure[right]{none}{\externalfigure[foo][width=4cm,height=4cm]}
\lettrine {V}{oici} a very silly \input tufte
\stoptext
--
There is a strange behaviour of \placefigure[right] when using
\lettrine (see PDF at http://people.vnoss.org/~vnpenguin/pub/context/drop.pdf )
Any ideas ?
Thanks,
Q.

Unfortunately, this cannot be helped. It is a limitation of the \parshape primitive. Greetings, Taco ___ ntg-context mailing list ntg-context@ntg.nl http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context

Re: [NTG-context] lettrine.sty, but not LaTeX
trivial question from a novice: What are the steps to use a new module like the lettrine.sty? Where do I put this file? what command should I type to make is available to context? etc... thank you ciro PS: I am using Fedora Core 3 + texlive2004 + context from February 2005. ___ ntg-context mailing list ntg-context@ntg.nl http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context

Re: [NTG-context] small caps
Adam, I feel like a complete idiot now. I had been so proud about this idea, but after re-reading you MyWay about OpenType, I see that I had been reinventing the wheel: this is exactly the solution you had been suggesting almost two years ago. Thanks for being generous about this... However, your post made me think: I know nothing about XSLT, but enough perl to shoot myself in the foot. I guess if I had a version of texnansi.enc with the unicode values in addition to the names, that would be a good starting point. I was thinking of this route: 1. use ftxdumperfuser to produce cmap.xml, 2. use perl to reduce it to two values: glyphName % UNICODE_VALUE 3. use perl to extract the lines corresponding to a given encoding and put them in the right order. Sounds feasible? Do you know where I could get such a unicode-aware version of texnansi.enc? Best Thomas On Feb 27, 2005, at 10:39 AM, Adam Lindsay wrote: Indeed, that's one of the reasons why I came up with the unicode (symbol[1]) scripts... there are common utilities (ttx and Apple's ftx suite) that work well at associating canonical characters with glyph names specific to a font. I'm sure some enterprising XSLT hacker could take my scripts as a starting point and make them work with specific TeXy encodings, not just individual Unicode vectors. ___ ntg-context mailing list ntg-context@ntg.nl http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context
[NTG-context] FO and ConTeXt: my new wiki page
I have a new page on the wiki http://contextgarden.net/Page_layout This page is my best effort at describing how someone who is used to FO would do the same thing in ConTeXt. The page is just one of many I hope to write on FO and ConTeXt. I'm sure I got some things wrong, so any help would be appreciated. One thing I was not able to do was customize headers and footers for blank pages that end a part (such as a chapter). I need to include a section in my page describing my inability to do this.
