[NTG-context] chinese labels
Hi Hans, Hi all,
I would like to typeset chinese labels with metapost.
My code is:
-
\starttext
\startMPpage
verbatimtex
\enableregime[utf]
\usemodule[chi-00]
etex;
label(btex ? etex,(0,0));
\stopMPpage
\stoptext
-
It results in the errormessage:
! Argument of \dodoubletestempty has an extra }.
\par
}
\doifnextcharelse ...token =#1\def \!!stringa {#2}
\def \!!stringb
{#3}\futur...
...mtex \enableregime [utf] \usemodule
[chi-00] etex; label(btex

}\convertcommand \ascii
\t...
\startMPgraphic ...hic \writecheckedMPgraphic {#1}
\stopwritingMPgraphic
...
l.8 \stopMPpage
?
Thanks for any help

[NTG-context] display math overcrowded with $$..$$
The following file produces a overcrowded displayed formula (the
integral sign almost touches the line of text below it):
\starttext
$$\ln(1+x)=\int_1^{1+x}{dt\over t}$$ is very useful.
The logarithm is the area of regions A and B.
\stoptext
But if I use \startformula..\stopformula instead of $$..$$, then the
spacing is fine. I make the pdf file with 'texexec --pdf try.tex' and
see the problem on my laptop (Debian testing/unstable i386, teTeX
3.0-14 + cm-super font package):
texexec : TeXExec 5.2.4 - ConTeXt / PRAGMA ADE 1997-2005
texutil : TeXUtil 9.0.0 - ConTeXt / PRAGMA ADE 1992-2004
tex : pdfeTeX, 3.141592-1.21a-2.2 (Web2C 7.5.4)
context : ver: 2005.01.31
cont-en : ver: 2005.01.31 fmt: 2006.2.18 mes: english
I thought a conTeXt upgrade might fix it, but I haven't (yet!) won the
battle with teTeX and map and encoding files. However, the live ConTeXt
(2006.02.15) on the Wiki displays, no pun intended, the same spacing
problem.
Should I not use $$..$$ for display math? I'm learning context as I
convert my plain tex + eplain files. The Wiki page on Math
says that context inherits its math
from plain TeX, which implies that $$ should work. However, no examples
on the page use $$, so maybe I shouldn't be so presumptuous.
Although I'd like $$..$$ and \startformula..\stopformula to be
equivalent, I can write a script to convert plain TeX $$..$$
constructions to \{start,stop}formula

Actually the explaination in verb-ini.tex is pretty good. I had
somehow missed reading it earlier. I vaguely understand how the whole

this will have to do. The only features missing are identifying line

need to understand verb-jv/js more clearly to incorporate these

Re: [NTG-context] Multi-page tables
Just curious if anyone has any suggestions on the request below. I've searched the list archives and found similar questions but, unfortunately, no answers. The tables are going in an appendix of work and generally span 5-10 pages... clever (or ugly) hacks greatly appreciated!

Re: [NTG-context] \page inside a block
so,
lo and behold, a beginner \TeX{}er's "solution":
---%<-
\defineparagraphs
[poem][n=2]
\setupparagraphs
[poem][1][width=.35\textwidth]
\setupparagraphs
[poem][2][rule=on]
\def\StartPoem#1{%
\startpoem
\ifx#1\undefined\else\section{#1}\fi
\poem\startlines}
\def\StopPoem{%

line 1
line 2
\StopPoem
\StartPoem{poem2}
line 1
line 2
\PoemPage
line 3
line 4
\StopPoem
\stoptext
---%<-
as the poems are quite static, and in this case it is
actually better if i can "cut" the page at a convinient
point, i think this is an easier "hack"
(at the moment for me definitely) :))
and it also takes care of the \startlines \stoplines
i asked about earlier. not that Taco's solution
did not work, but this is much more primitive,
and so better at the moment.
i have another question. how can i modify how the "rule"
will look like? the closest thing i have found in the
manual was \setupmarginrules but \setupmarginrules[thickness=5]
did nothing.
thanks to everyone for pointing out where the manual sources are.

actually, this verbatim specific numbering is not hooked into the typing
environments (only in the typefile stuff); so what you observe are side
effects
i'll send you a test patch off list (and to taco because we need to
trace a spurious space)

i myself had this feeling that the columns will not behave
if longer than a page. but i had my fingers crossed, because
they are set up as "paragraphs" (\setupparagraphs), and paragraphs
don't have problems with page break, do they?
but after sending the mail, it just occured to me, that in this
special case, poems, static text, don't need much flexibility or
automagic, so doing a
\startpoem
\section{poem}
\poem\startlines
line 1
line 2
\stoplines\stoppoem
\page\startpoem
\poem\startlines
line 3
line 4
\stoplines\stoppoem
\stoptext
does exactly what i want :)))
nevertheless what you just did there was very impressive
i will study it in details, but i am not a great tex master.
i'd like to do context/books for a living, but until it's
only a hobby, it just needs too much effort learning all
the stuff, and to "keep in shape".
my biggest problem with starting context is the lack of examples.
it is not hard to find .tex files for latex, but context is different...
i think it would certainly help heaps if the manual source was
released, just like the \TeXbook's... at least the old manual's
sources...
i think i have read something about this issue, but i don't remember
where or when :)
i know it must be an awful lot of work to make impressive manuals like
that, but they are not sold commercionally, are they? is it not the
aim to make context more widespread? so when we post a question here
about a silly layout problem, hundreds and hundreds of people would
answer :)))
i will certainly try to put more examples into the wiki, after i
understand them :)

there are several definitions:
\def\os {\mathortext{\fam\purefamily{oldstyle}}{\symbolicfont
{OldStyle}}}
\definefontsynonym [OldStyle] [Serif]
and in the cmr synonyms OldStyle comes from a math font
when i need oldstyles, i just define an oldstyle typeface, eg with optima nova
(type-ghz.tex):
\starttypescript [sans] [optima-nova-os] [name]
\definefontsynonym [Sans][OptimaNovaLT-RegularOsF]
\definefontsynonym [SansItalic] [OptimaNovaLT-ItalicOsF]
\definefontsynonym [SansBold][OptimaNovaLT-BoldOsF]
\definefontsynonym [SansBoldItalic] [OptimaNovaLT-BoldItalicOsF]
\definefontsynonym [SansSlanted] [OptimaNovaLT-ItalicOsF]
\definefontsynonym [SansBoldSlanted] [OptimaNovaLT-BoldItalicOsF]
\definefontsynonym [SansCaps][OptimaNovaLT-RegularSC]
\stoptypescript
\definetypeface[optima][ss][sans][optima-nova][default][encoding=texnansi]
\definetypeface[osoptima][ss][sans][optima-nova-os][default][encoding=texnansi]
so i do a complete switch from \optima to \osoptima when needed

[NTG-context] Problem with typescripts - oldstyle numbers
I just realized the pattern in a somewhat unexpected behavior in a typescript. It defines several instances of Adobe Caslon (with or without certain ligatures, oldstyle, proportional numbers etc.). I want typewriter and math from Latin Modern. In the end, the typefaces are defined: \starttypescript [Caslonpnum] \definetypeface [MyCaslonpnum] [rm] [serif] [caslonpnum] [default] [encoding=\typescripttwo] \definetypeface [MyCaslonpnum] [tt] [mono] [modern] [default] [encoding=\typescripttwo] \stoptypescript Here's the catch: as soon as I add a definition for a math font: \definetypeface [MyCaslonpnum] [mm] [math] [modern] [default] [encoding=\typescripttwo] oldstyle figures will always be taken from the math font. If I delete this line from the typescript, I get the oldstyle figures from the font defined as [OldStyle]. Looks like a bug to me. Or am I misunderstanding something?

2 questions for colors 1) Does ConTeXt offer complete color gestion as pdf spec 1.6 or there are some features not implemented ? 2) Preparing a pdf with bitmap colored images for offset press (ie covers for manuals): are png or jpeg an optimal solution or tiff is better ?

actually, this is a rather complex situation; one could use a tabulate
the complication is in the line and in the fact that you want to use a
section command

I leave it up to you (or others) to wikify this example. It looks more
complex than it is. By using a mp graphic you have more options
watch what happens if you add
\page
\startuseMPgraphic{mpos:par:poem}
for i = 1 upto nofmultipars :
multipars[i] := multipars[i]
enlarged .5ExHeight
rightenlarged -.5ExHeight;

Why don't you simply type
In \in{figure}[figuur7]a and \in{figure}[figuur7]b ?

I've browsed some of my own documents, and they contain the equiv. of
In \in{figure}[figuur7]a and \in{figure}[figuur7]b one can see
So if it is possible to set up independant references for the bits
of a combination, I have not found it. I never bothered to look
deeper into this, because, for my appications (paper printing), it
does not matter that the subparts are 'glued on'.

I've tried this with a "method" trick, but that does not work too well
with 'location=intext'. Anyway, here is what I did:
\setuptyping[prog]
[bodyfont=small,
before={\begingroup\setuplinenumbering[style=small,%
step=2,start=3,location=inmargin,method=type]
\startframelisting \obeylines
\startlinenumbering},
after={\stoplinenumbering\stopframelisting\endgroup}]

Probably, but I do not know.

The setup obeys normal grouping rules (hence the \begingroup ...
\endgroup in the code above)

That should be possible in typing environments. I even think there was
a wiki page on that. But in non-verbatim environments, the breaking is
simply TeX's paragraph builder, and I do not think context allows
tinkering with that (I could be proven wrong, of course)
