[NTG-context] unicode fontdefinition
Hi all,I am currently typesetting a collection of articles that use a great number of unicodeglyphs from 19 vectors. All the regular glyphs turn up fine, but I am unable to get the bold and italic versions of the glyphs. I have made encoding files for all the vectors using the xsl-scripts from Adam Lindsay and installed them via texfont. The sourcefile is an xml-file with decimal-unicode-entities that are mapped to the \uchar command by the \defineXMLentity command.I have defined the unicode fontsynonyms as follows:code\loadmapfile[palatinolinostar_01xx-starling-linostar]\definefontsynonym [UnicodeRegular01] [palatinolinostar_01xx-PalatinoLinoStar] [encoding=palatinolinostar_01xx]\definefontsynonym [UnicodeBold01] [palatinolinostar_01xx-PalatinoLinoStarBold] [encoding=palatinolinostar_01xx]\definefontsynonym [UnicodeItalic01] [palatinolinostar_01xx-PalatinoLinoStarItalic] [encoding=palatinolinostar_01xx]/codeMy bodyfontdefinition is as follows:code\starttypescript [map] [linostar] [texnansi,palatinolinostar_01xx]\loadmapfile [\typescripttwo-starling-linostar.map]\stoptypescript\starttypescript [serif] [linostar] [texnansi,palatinolinostar_01xx]\definefontsynonym [linostar] [\typescriptthree-PalatinoLinoStar] [encoding=\typescriptthree] \definefontsynonym [linostar-Italic] [\typescriptthree-PalatinoLinoStarItalic] [encoding=\typescriptthree] \definefontsynonym [linostar-Bold] [\typescriptthree-PalatinoLinoStarBold] [encoding=\typescriptthree]\stoptypescript\starttypescript [serif] [linostar] [name] \setups [font:fallback:serif] \definefontsynonym [Serif] [linostar] \definefontsynonym [SerifItalic] [linostar-Italic] \definefontsynonym [SerifBold] [linostar-Bold]\stoptypescript \starttypescript [my] [starling-linostar] [texnansi,palatinolinostar_01xx]\definetypeface [starling-linostar] [rm] [serif] [linostar] [default] [encoding=\typescriptthree]\stoptypescript \usetypescript [my] [starling-linostar]\setupbodyfont[starling-linostar,rm,10pt]/codeCould somebody tell me what I am doing wrong?

Re: [NTG-context] beginners manual - Install

I'm going to clean up the beginners manual (at least the source code) so i think this s a good moment to pick up the 'translation' thread So the question is: - what can go out - what should go in - what should be updated as well as: - who will participate (in translation) - how to deal with localization (maybe dedicated language related chapters) As a beginner myself and typesetting in Portuguese I can tell you what I had troubles with: - mainlanguage - Special characters as º (\ordmasculine and stuff like that). And maybe not in the beginners manual but I think there should be an updated manual about how to install context. I'm still using a context version from 2004.08 as it is the only one it worked for me.

Are there any sugestions on the installation of Ruby and Perl on windows ? http://www.activestate.com/ they provide avtivepearl. It's no problem to install it. http://www.ruby-lang.org/en/ there you get ruby. They provide a link to the one click ruby installer which you will find here: http://rubyinstaller.rubyforge.org/wiki/wiki.pl there is the after installing you should check if the *.exe of perl and ruby is in the default path. you can easily check in the command line by calling ruby --version and perl --version To get the context scripts running they should also be in the default path (this given path is valid for my miktex installation, you probably have to change it)!

Re: [NTG-context] kpathsea355.dll missing from 2005-11-16 mswintex.zip and mswincontext.zip
Adrian Drury wrote: The mswintex.zip and mswincontext.zip files on www.pragma-ade.com, dated 2005-11-16, are missing the kpathsea355.dll file from root/tex/texmf-mswin/bin. I discovered this while trying the URW Garamond installation instructions in the wiki, and the texfont command failed running vptovf. The kpathsea355.dll file was in mswincontext.zip that I downloaded at the beginning of September, so I copied it from there to my minimal (re)installation (and successfully completed the URW Garamond installation instructions). For future reference, is this type of issue better tracked in the collector? is that dll needed? afaik the kpse dll is: tl90kpse.dll maybe you're calling the wrong binary? btw 1: since the kpse library is not that suited for usage outside the tex collection of binaries (the interface changes now and then) i decided to write a ruby variant. since the ruby variants is about as fast as the native c version (or even faster when i auto-dump the file database), in due time i'll let the ruby scripts use this ruby kpse class. A kpsewhich kind of alternative is provided by 'tmftools': tmftools texnansi.enc will provide you the path; this script supports the kpsewhich switched for as much as they make sense. It also tries to locate the cnf file, in the kind of undocumented and fuzzy way of kpse -) An interesting option is tmftools --analyze the idea is that you can locate duplicates, compare trees, etc. i'll document this script when i have time. btw 2: there are all kind of ...tools.rb scripts in the distribution btw 3: when you use texmfstart to start a script, some history of where files are is passed to subprocesses, which means that less calls to kpsewhich need to take place; this is one reason why newtexexec can be a bit more clever and still be faster Hans (if you run over networks, for instance have your tex tree on a nas system, and need to access it like //nas-1/tex , then older binaries may fail due to some problem in kpse; this was repaired recently) ___ ntg-context mailing list ntg-context@ntg.nl http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context

Re: [NTG-context] beginners manual
Hi Hans, Thank you for your great work. Regarding the beginners manual your are going to update, I have two or three suggestions. To begin with, I think we should designate a volunteer group of people on this list to do some tasks in parallel: 1) Since the installation of ConTeXt seems to be not so easy for everyone, we should have at least three subgroups of people experimenting, and then explaining, how to install and update ConTeXt on Linux, Windows, MacOS X. Once each subgroup has carried out the experimentation of the How to... instructions, they would send them to you so that you can include them in the Beginners Manual (abbreviated BM in the sequel...). It is important to include in each subgroup a wizard and an amateur beginner: otherwise the How to... instructions may result in something not really usable by real beginners. For my part I am volunteering to be a (rather dumb...) beginner regarding installation on MacOS X, and its use with XeTeX. The same observation applies for the use of ConTeXt with non roman languages under various operating systems. 2) We should divide the BM in $n$ parts ($n \geq 2$... but maybe $n=10 $) and designate one or two individuals for each part to test ALL the codes and examples you give in the BM to make sure that they work fine with a basic install of ConTeXt. 3) Two great features of ConTeXt are its versatility regarding Metapost and presentations. In the BM these features should be presented in a transparent way, since most beginners would not have the patience or the technical knowledge of going through the source files.

\section{Zapf}
\marking[M]{z}

As usual, there is a page with more detailed release notes available on the Wiki, see: http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Context_2005.11.24 New features compared to the 2005.11.16 version: * As of this version, ConTeXt has a new zip archive: cont-fnt.zip. This zip will contain font support files.

[NTG-context] Moving close to Lucida but still not there
Hans, Taco, Adam et al, I dropped all of my lucida pfb and afm fonts into a temporary directory, ~/tmp/lucida. Change to that directory and entered: texfont --ve=yandy --co=lucida --ma --in Log file is attached. I was able to compile the resulting texnansi- yandy-lucida.tex. Progress. However, when you look at the log file you will see some skipping of the math fonts, certainly not what I want, being a mathematics teacher. For example, font identifier : LucidaNewMath-Arrows - math - skipping use supplied tfm : lbma font identifier : LucidaNewMath-Arrows-Demi - math - skipping use supplied tfm : lbmad I looked in type-buy.dat and found: # bh lucida --en=? --ve=bh --co=lucida --re --en=? --ve=bh --co=lucida --so=bh/lucida --ma --in --expert Is the fact that I didn't use that --expert switch my problem? How can I get texfont to not skip the math fonts? lucida.log Description: Binary data David ___ ntg-context mailing list ntg-context@ntg.nl http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context

That would be quite simple, like so:

Right?

For example (where \bf is \someconfigurablecommand).
However, I find it really 'funny' that there are n different
methods to create items in an enumeration ... should these
be rather enumeration options, so that you can use the same
source code and just chang the stuff in \setup/\staritemize
to achieve the different effects?
This is why I was thinking of using \head, still, for
example.

[NTG-context] No partial contents for parts after the first
I'm using the latest ConTeXt reported here, and I'm noticing
that partial contents for the second, third etc part are not
available. I have a bunch of files each of which goes like
\part{some part}
Some text (not always)
\placecontent
\chapter{some chapter}
Each of this file is \input from the master file. However,
only in the first part you actually see the (part-specific)
content: every other part reports
system : part,chapter,section,subsection not found/processed
The setup for the contents is as follows:
\setupcombinedlist[content]
[interaction=all,
partnumber=no,
alternative=c,
level=subsection]
\setuphead[part][alternative=middle,placehead=yes,resetnumber=no]
The problem is the 'resetnumber': if I take that off,
everything works perfectly.

[NTG-context] Can texexec enable write18 at runtime

\chapter{second appendix}
\stopappendices

This works:
\setupinterlinespace[big]
\starttext
\dorecurse{10}{\input knuth}
\stoptext
This doesn't:
\setupinterlinespace[big]
\switchtobodyfont[10pt]
\starttext
\dorecurse{10}{\input knuth}
\stoptext
But I don't know whether that's a bug or a feature or a side-effect.
