[NTG-context] How to use Lucida bright font after installing mswintex
Dear ConTeXt users, Last Friday I installed the minimal ConTeXt under Windows XP and tried also to make the lucida bright font available. I carried out the following recipe: 1. Download the latest mswintex.zip from Pragma 2. Unzip into C:\ (all files and directories are now under C:\tex) 3. Start a CMD shell and run the commands: cd c:\tex setuptex.bat mktexlsr texexec --make --alone nl en metafun 4. Copy all 139 lucida related .afm and .pfb files to c:\temp 5. From this directory run: texfont --fontroot=c:/tex/texmf-local --ve=yandy --co=lbr --ma --in 6. Add \loadmapfile[context-base] to cont-sys.tex In TeXnicCenter I edited test files and ran the command c:\tex\setuptex.bat texexec with the arguments --bat --nonstop --pdf --color %bm All went well and a test file using e.g. the bookman font produced the desired result. But trying to use the lucida bright font gave the error: ! Font \*lucida6ptmmmi*:=lbmo at 6.0pt not loadable: Metric (TFM) file not foud. The error occurred after the following three lines: \loadmapfile[texnansi-yandy-lbr.map] \gebruiktypescript[lucida][texnansi] \switchtotypeface[lucida][11pt] Any help is highly appreciated.

Re: [NTG-context] Suitable mechanism for Theorems and Definitions
Hi friends,
In David's mail I found one of the problem I had been thinking of too,
and I tried his code. Unfortionately, it does not work.
I don't need it for math, but for case descriptions.
A case consists of the following elements:
Case 1Eating fruit is healthy
Text text text - case description --
Questions:
1. abcd
2. efgh
Answers:
1. aaa bb
2. dderere
...
Case 2 Everything about vitamins
...
The elements themselves I can put in blocks in order to be able to
separate the q's and a's.
What I am wondering about is how to include the title in the macro.
It does not seem very difficult, but I can't figure out how.
The theorem environment seemed promising, but David's suggestion does
not process. Has anyone an idea?
Kind regards,
Robert

Hello Taco,

:-), that's great :-).
In the meantime, I solved the second part, i.e., adding the additional
describing text. It goes somehow like this (well, it's a hack, but it
works):
% MathParagraph is the enumeration (it ensures references and numbering,
% and typesetting all the texts). In command, it calls a macro that refers
% to \MathParagraphType etc.
\def\startLemma{\dosingleempty\dostartLemma}
\def\dostartLemma[#1]#2 {%
\def\MathParagraphType{Lemma}
\def\MathParagraphName{#2}
\def\MathParagraphList{MathParagraphs}
\iffirstargument
\startMathParagraph[#1]
\else
\startMathParagraph
\fi
}
\let\stopLemma\stopMathParagraph
So I can use
\startLemma[reference]{Algorithm xyz terminates}
...
\stopLemma
I came to the idea to misuse command= to typeset the header and write to
the list, it is given an argument containing the number of the enumeration.
Anyway, it is not easy to feed it into \expanded{\writetolist...} as the
argument is something with \edef and a pile of pretty ugly macros :-), so I
still use \precedingsectionnumber\numberMathParagraph :-(
To sum up, a good way to obtain current enumeration number (in a form that
goes into lists, etc.) would be completely enough, provided that one
writes hacks to solve the rest (and does end up finding the real macro
names with \tracingmacros=1 :-)). Creating something like
enumerateddescription (a description with names and possibility to write
lists) would be much nicer, of course :-))
Thank you very much,
D.A.
P.S.: Hans said once that a Dutch mathematical journal is typeset with
ConTeXt. Do you have an idea how they typeset theorems?

[NTG-context] How to customize the default verbatim colors
Hi all! I recently started using Verbatim Macroses to make source code pieces look prettier in my docs. I use things like \setuptyping[JV] and then \startJV - \stopJV But I'd like to change the default colors in the macroses to my own. I only found that redefining some colors like this \definecolor [colorprettyone] [green] \definecolor [colorprettytwo] [navy] \definecolor [colorprettythree] [r=0,g=0,b=.9] makes effect, but that seems not very effective and affects all verbatims. 1) I could not find all colors. 2) I need several different schemes (palettes) for different verbatims (XML, Java, SQL). I expect there is a way to redefine whole palette or something. What's the easiest and the right way to do it? Thanks in advance!-- Eugene ___ ntg-context mailing list ntg-context@ntg.nl http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context
