[NTG-context] Characters per inch with ConTexT
Hi, I am writing a document where the guidelines say that I should use Times Roman font at 10pt with 15 characters per inch and 6 lines per inch. I am using thermes from tex gyre rscaled=1.015 as the bodyfont. At this setting I get a bit more less than 6 lines per inch (which is fine) but roughtly 17 characters per inch.

Wow!
That wasn't only a very nice solution, but also a very instructive
one. I really need to read your article in Maps again. I've heard
about \noalign, but didn't think about using it for a horizontal rule.
I've heard about "matrix", but I didn't get the point: I though that
\matrix{0&1\cr1&0}-like constructs and \startalign should satisfy my
needs ;)
Thanks a lot both for your answer and for "forcing Hans" to implement
all the possible and impossible math features. I'm now trying to spot
the most appropriate place in the wiki tu put that example there, but
I really think that you should put it in one if your manuals as a
really nice example.

Did I say that I do not know about fonts :) I was just reflecting on what I have seen on the mailing list. Most problems in fonts with missing characters etc is due to ec encoding (I remember something in the past about \textmu not being present in ec). By ugly I meant that ConTeXt has to work harder behind the scenes to make sure that ec works. In any case, with luatex, TeX's font scene will be totally different (I know, I know, I should atleast try XeTeX) Aditya ___ ntg-context mailing list ntg-context@ntg.nl http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context

fixed-width font? Then you can just use \starttable with appropriate
setting for distance. Even otherwise you can use starttable with |m|
columns, but I understant math align better.

\noalign is your friend. Here is the first approximation
\starttext
\startformula \startalign[n=5]
\NC a \NC + \NC b \NC = \NC 9 \NR
\NC a \NC - \NC b \NC = \NC 3 \NR
\noalign{\hrule}
\NC 2a \NC \NC \NC = \NC 12 \NR
\stopalign \stopformula
\stoptext
Hmm... the width of the rule is too long, so lets use something with a
fixed width
\starttext
\startformula \startmatrix[n=5]
\NC a \NC + \NC b \NC = \NC 9 \NR
\NC a \NC - \NC b \NC = \NC 3 \NR
\noalign{\hrule}
\NC 2a \NC \NC \NC = \NC 12 \NR
\stopmatrix \stopformula
\stoptext
Hmm... distance and alignment are wrong, so lets correct that
\starttext
\startformula
\startmatrix[n=5,distance=.3em,align={right,middle,right,middle,right}]
\NC a \NC + \NC b \NC = \NC 9 \NR
\NC a \NC - \NC b \NC = \NC 3 \NR
\noalign{\hrule}
\NC 2a \NC \NC \NC = \NC 12 \NR
\stopmatrix \stopformula
\stoptext
Voila! I did not know that ConTeXt math alignment macros could do
something like this.

[NTG-context] edge+text figure
With the help of details.pdf, I have managed to define edgefigures
that use the margin and goes into the text and if it is wide enough
(criterium=xxx) becomes a normal figure. Is it possible to make an
even wider figure use both the textwidth and the margin? I have tried
to illustrate what I want below, a figure is placed as f1 until
criterium is met, then it is placed like f2, and I would like to know
how to achieve f3. It is not necessary that it is called the same
thing and automatic, they are easily identified before. Regards, Johan

Maybe not for English and German users. But most other (European) languages need EC to cover all their letters (i.e. to make hyphenation work at all). Although not all languages are listed there, take a look into lang-ctx.tex. > So, can we move to texnansi as the default? Context used texnansi as the default encoding in past and I would say the opposite: those who care and really need to use texnansi, probably know that better than an average user who would need ec to support his language properly, but doesn't know that. (Although I've been using "TeX" quite some time now, I never noticed the difference until two years ago when I was using some strange combinations of letters in Antykwa Torunska which has different accents on capital letters - and I started wandering why Č and Š looked so different.) The problem with euro came with the new TeXLive. But it's not ec's fault only that it doesn't work. But as others already said - uc will soon be the default anyway ...
