ah ... sorry ... i hate this font name mess

if that works ok, i'll make a new zip
Now this is a persistent problem
- some distributions only ship with the u* font files
- others with the p* font files
- it even changes now and then
- and it was suggested that nowadays p* would work everywhere
- which it doesn't
- because vietnamese does not have p* files
- so we need to use u* ones
- till someone tells me to use p* ones
- which, of course, then will not be available everywhere
- and so on
so, now it looks like we end up with a mixture of p* for non vietnamese
and u* for vietnamese
(an option is to use the cont-fnt zip file and forget about
adobekb/berry naming but i didn't test it with vietnamese [yet])

I updated the file, rebuild data (texexec --make --all . like wiki page)
But that does not help, there are now another errors:

[NTG-context] Font memory issues ?
Greetings ConTeXters,
Just recently (after updating to the most recent i-Installer ConTeXt
version / but also after writing/tweaking a little more), I am
apparently running into some font memory issues.*
I have tried to increase the available memory in web2c/texmf.cnf to
no avail. One curiosity is the pdfTeX error further down: argument
hz,normal. I am using hz,hanging in this document.
Any clues?
Many thanks,
David

Re: [NTG-context] Font memory issues ? : bib-module?
Excuse me for replying to myself, but it is also curious that ConTeXt
is trying to call a 12pt font. I have called 11pt in the environment.
It looks like these errors are appearing at the Bibliography. Might
this be due to something in the the beta bib-module?

[NTG-context] columnsets and footnotes (better explained)
Hi Hans,
maybe my problem was not clear enough. So please let me try it once
more.
The following example has main text in 2 columns and footnote text in
3 columns:
\setupfootnotes[n=3]
\starttext
\startcolumns
\dorecurse{10}{\input tufte\footnote{\input ward \relax}}
\stopcolumns
\stoptext
But as I also have to use section titles that span the columns
(without causing pagebreaks)
I need to use columnsets (like they are used in the following example):
\definecolumnset[two][n=2]
\definecolumnsetspan[two][n=2]
\setupfootnotes[n=1,width=\hsize]
\starttext
\startcolumnset[two]
\input tufte\footnote{\input ward \relax}
\startcolumnsetspan[two]
\subsubsection{Spanning all columns without page break}
\stopcolumnsetspan
\dorecurse{10}{\input ward\footnote{\input tufte \relax}}
\stopcolumnset
\stoptext
But I don't want the footnotes to be placed at the bottom of each
column,
I want them to be set in 3 columns at the bottom of the page (as
shown in the columns example above).
How can this be done?
Steffen

of the
package.
Page 103 to 110 are related to boxes, and is what is missing in
context.
hm, i prefer to start from user demands and personal needs; we used
latex for
a very short time and i don't remember mini pages -)
Ok, but what I mean is the need of such a documentation on the
ConTeXt core, not
reimplementing LaTeX in ConTeXt !
I'm not sure that ConTeXt \framed command is able to reproduce
the parbox behavior (position a framed box relatively to its
internal top
or bottom line and the outside baseline)
i think we can safely assume that all these things are available
somehow
(supp-box.tex implements a lot of box types)
I saw this source file thanks to the following URL:
http://source.contextgarden.net/supp-box.tex
There is very much interesting macro, but I see some
%D \macros
%D {strutdp,strutht,strutwd}
%D ...
Does it mean that an automatic generated documentation is available
somewhere
on the web?
Or is it mondatoryto browse the source for using these command.
normally \framed can do what's needed, so in your case, if you can
make
clear what you want to achieve i'm sure that someone on this list can
provide the answer
... So what is the current reference documentation about framed
- Context the manual (page 206) ?
- ConTeXt an excursion (page 45) ?
the manual as well as examples inside the core-ful.tex file
I havent been able to find this file!
core-fil.tex exists but doesn't seem to be about using boxes!
the most important properties of framed are
- offset (none,overlay, dimension)
- align (all kind of combinations)
- width/height (dimension or keyword)
- strut (yes|no)
just play a bit with it and you'll see the picture
Thank you for these informations, I reread the (box related) reference
manual, and better understand the thing!
...
I think there has to be two pairs of informations to position a
box (i.e. a cell text):
- how is the box is positioned relatively to its environment (the
location=
keyword I think),
no, location is limited to a few options; you can use macros
like \offset[...]{} or other box positioning macros; layers
are also an option
Although I guess what it mean, I didn't found the \offset command
doc neither. I suppose it has numerous
interesting options (on http://texshow.contextgarden.net/)?
- inside the box : everywhere. that implies two reals numbers
between 0.0 and 1.0 (perhaps wider?)
what are those numbers representing?
It could just be a way to specify arbitrary position between
left (0.0) and right (1.0) or between bottom (0.0) ant top (1.0)
But the more important whould be a (uptodate) reference documentation
about
the already existing commands.
(but the TeX command \raise0.5ex could do that)
indeed, \raise and \lower and cousins can come in handy
Yes, I always forget TeX command! thank you very much !
(what do you use those minipages for?)
These are just (v?)boxes which can contain several paragraphs
and theyre own footnotes. Some options can be use to position
theyre internal (top or bottom) line relatively to the external
base line.
No need for now, I only used them in LaTeX for building some boxing
construction. But in context I used vboxex into hboxes (because I
didn't kwox enough about standard \framed command)
In fact, ConTeXt already contains all the needed stuffs, and only
some centralised documentation for using them is missing!
I'm waiting for the future ConTeXt book ;-)

PS.
Also the ConTeXt wiki becomme more and more rich in information!
Thank you very much for all that

Add to the wiki what you've learned! Hans codes much faster than he
manages to document things, so it's up to the community to keep the
documentation up-to-date ;)

See
http://www.logosrl.it/context/modules/
that Luigi kept preparing last summer (perhaps gave up afterwards?)
But it's HGE (I would guess that reading the source is faster even
if you see no picture).
I'm waiting for the future ConTeXt book ;-)

Thank you very much for all that

[NTG-context] Updating to Context 2006.01.09
The best thing to do is install MiKTeX without ConTeXt support, and then extract cont-tmf.zip into \texmf-local, then refresh the fndb. Just doing: texexec --make or something else?
