[NTG-context] Palatino?
Hi gang, I have a problem on my system with the Palatino font. In type-enc, it's mapped to \definefontsynonym [Palatino] [\typescriptthree-uplr8a] [encoding=\typescriptthree] However, on my system (Gerben Wierda's installation), there is no texnansi- or EC- or whatever-uplr8a. Palatino works flawlessly with LaTeX, mapped to pplr8t, and of course, it works with ConTeXt if I create the tfms myself with texfont, but I thought there was some default support for Palatino. Am I missing something? Best Thomas ___ ntg-context mailing list ntg-context@ntg.nl http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context

But if the heading should be set in general in a bold face what do I
use instead of \rm so that italic parts of he heading will be typeset
in bold-italic (and \sc parts to bold-smallcaps)?
I guess something (next to serif, sans, mono, ...) like serifbold
(\brm?) should be defined in my typescript?
I'm a bit confused why you're not using \em in this situation, as it
adapts to both bold and roman contexts. If you dislike that it defaults
to slanted, then there's:
\setupbodyfontenvironment[default][em=italic]
{\bf Hello \em World} Hello \em World
But if you want to follow the path of defining your own, adaptive
switches, then you could look at these goodies already defined in font-ini:
%D \macros
%D {emphbf,emphit,emphsl,emphtf}
%D
%D The next emphasis alternatives are for \THANH. They adapt
%D their style as good as possible.
\def\emphbf{\groupedcommand{\bf\def\emphit{\bi}\def\emphsl{\bs}}{}}
\def\emphit{\groupedcommand{\it\def\emphbf{\bi}\def\emphsl{\sl}}{}}

\def\emphtf{\groupedcommand{\tf\def\e
mphbf{\bf}\def\emphit{\it}\def\emphsl{\sl}}
{}}
Right. I can use \em.
But my workflow of using ConTeXt is typesetting already finished
books (.doc-files). And so I would like to change the text as
little as possible and instead use an suitable set of typescript and
setup environment.
That's why I thought I'd need a mysans (or \myrm) defined in the
typescript to be used in Taco's full-blown bodyfont switch as
described above:
\def\SectionStyle{%
\switchtobodyfont[myrm,20pt]
\setupinterlinespace[line=30pt]
}
In fact, this is something I would like to have also for other
purposes (for example to use a second set of oldstyle figures):
defining my own *myserif* or *mysans* that could be used then in a
typescriptfile the same way as sans, serif and mono are used there.
But up to now I didn't manage it.

[NTG-context] xecontext/bibtex issue ?
I suppose that, as usual, I am missing something obvious or simple. However, AFAICS it hasn't been discussed recently and isn't mentioned on the XeTeX wiki pages, so... What is the procedure for invoking bibtex as part of a XeConTeXt process ? I can't get this to work. If I run: texexec --xtx myInputFile first, then texexec stops after generating the xdv. This *always* happens with any input file containing citations, but *never* for input files w/o citations. (I'm assuming that texexec expects bibtex processing before generating a pdf since the xdv is full of unknown refs ? ) The problem is that bibtex can't read the .aux file that is generated by xextex. (This is a general case for all of my test files, all of which run fine as vanilla LaTeX and ConTeXt variants (haven't tried XeLaTeX, but don't need it anyway).) I can't run bibtex on my input file first obviously. Do I need to do something (seemingly crazy) like this: 1. context 2. bibtex 3. [modify input file preamble] 4. xecontext Or maybe there is a custom bibtex command for such situations ? ? wtia, mark. ___ ntg-context mailing list ntg-context@ntg.nl http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context

a broken file with your definition. Maybe this is because I am using

\definecolor[IFSblueheadertint][{PANTONE 294CV}][p=.12]
\definecolor[IFSbluetabletint][{PANTONE 294CV}][p=.15]

What is missing? I am working (under OSX) with Hans' recent Beta,
with Gerbens latest tex i-package, and I also saw various helvetica

So, shouldn't contexing with Helvetica work just out-of-the-box, as

This is probably not satisfying, because you probably want to get new

you could use (or expand to):

This is probably not satisfying, because you probably want to get new
mathematics commands working, but if this is to be used solely in text,
you could use (or expand to):
b\low{off}
\low (and \hi and \lohi) look like they work robustly in both math and
text modes.
I'll see. I wonder if it will look the same. Especially in terms of
font. Do I get the same font in both sides? Do I get the same kerning?
I'm a bit confused by you using \newcommand in your (ConTeXt?)

Yes, strange, isn't it? It just works. I copied one accidentally over
and it worked. So I kept using it.

Hi everybody!
Sorry for the too long example. I wasn't sure what caused the
problem and wanted to provide all relevant information at one
time. I didn't mention the units module explicitly because I
have the same problem using the \cite command from the
bib-module and I assumed, that it would be a more general
problem.
The workaround with the \hbox{} does work. Is this some kind of
bug and will be fixed in the future?
Thank you all for your help! :-))

Re: [NTG-context] Initial Font Installation Question (Mac)
Greetings ConTeXters
I'm back to ask another question:
After an initial successful installation of the purchased fonts, I've
come to find that there is a serious quirk. That is, when I try to use
any special glyph, be it an accented character of any kind, or e.g. an
eth. The result of something like \a (or \{a}) is _a_ without the
diacritic. Curiously (to me, at least:), if I enter the actual glyph:
, it gives me the character I needbut only for a few runs! After
adding a couple more of such alternative glyphs, it starts to show
gibberish. Some trials evince an ff-ligature as the diacritic. Errors
in the mapping/virtual font/?
Again I hope to save myself some time by asking to be pointed in the
right direction, as my initial searches haven't really helped.
Kind Regards,
David Wooten

Just a quick reply:
having the afm is already very good. The file without an extension
looks suspiciously like a Mac font resource. Can you try running the
utility fondu on it (from the command line)? That will usually
produce the pfbs (very likely, there's more than one: roman, italics,
bold ...). Texfont, btw, can equally well work with truetype fonts, so
if you have a proper tryetype font with extension .ttf. you might as
well use this. texfont will produce a map entry that you will have to
modify a bit (so it points to a .ttf instead of the default .pfb), but
that's not too difficult. As to names: don't bother, ConTeXt is happy
with whatever name you throw at it.
Only a couple things to add:
When fondu generates the .pfb file, copy the .afm to share the new
(probably longer) filename.
Texfont on MacOSX trips on capital letter extensions: make sure they're
uniformly lower case.
If fondu fails you (it hasn't failed me yet), there's also t1unmac
(lcdf.org).
And if texfont installation fails or inexplicably stalls, you might
need
to go in and truncate long (255+ character) lines by manually editing
the
text file. I've always found these to be comment/copyright lines, so
you're not hurting anything by doing so.
You lucky so-and-so for getting Andulka!

What happens with \showfont[mynewfont] ?
