The specification says that lookups should be applied in LookupList order. Featurefiles don't have an explicit ordering command, but that does not mean that ordering should be irrelevant.

[NTG-context] Recommendations for Speed?
Hello, I've been perusing the list archives for a couple of days now, and reading up on articles (such as Hans' regarding optimizing in TeX and eTeX) to find guidance on a handful of decisions. Our company makes a web-based publishing solution called MemoryPress.com that uses conTeXt for on-demand creation of PDFs which are then converted to jpeg format for display in a web browser. We are currently looking into ways to speed things up and since many of you are far more qualified than I am in this area, I wondered if you might advise me on the following: 1. Is there a way to keep TeX in-memory (i.e. as a server or daemon process) so that it doesn't have to load and reload fonts and the environment? Our system makes repeated requests for typeset documents and we are wondering if there's a way to remove the overhead of re-running pdftex. 2. Among the many different command-line TeX options, what might optimize for speed? I've done some rudimentary benchmarking and found that executing etex (without conTeXt) is much faster than texexec, and wondered if there is any advice in this area. Is there any way to shave off some of the overhead of using conTeXt? 3. I've noticed that there is some kind of caching going on (tui/tuo files?) that helps speed things up after the first run. How can I best take advantage of this facility? What kinds of things will require TeX to start from scratch, vs. use some or all of this cached information? 4. Are there any other areas I should consider when looking for ways to use TeX as an on-demand typesetting engine?

[NTG-context] bib module fails to produce publication list under certain conditions

I've attached a simple document and a one-entry bib file that illustrates the error.

Re: [NTG-context] Greek in luatex
> there were a couple of problems that I just > couldn't resolve, especially regarding the characters with an iota > subscript: Indeed. This is a problem with the Fontforge code applying the GSUB features: the 'grbl' feature is defined by two lookups, one being a list of single substitutions (h -> eta) and the other a list of ligature substitutions (h bar -> eta with subscribed iota). Now, since the latter has to take precedence to avoid conflicts, I explicitely put it before the other, but it seems that Fontforge ignores this and applies the list of single substitutions before the other (this is confirmed by the cache file [EMAIL PROTECTED] where the lookup with the single substitutions, called "GreelBabelLookupSimple", appears first in the gsub table). Note that this doesn't happen for substitutions *inside* a lookup (so things like "greater eta bar" and "eta bar" don't conflict since they're both ligature substitutions and I put the former before in the list, and the substitutions are correctly applied. As a far as I understand, this behaviour is actually compliant with the Opentype specifications and is quite widespread among typesetting engines and so it is not (only) Fontforge's fault; but, needless to say, it is nevertheless annoying. (In more crude terms: Opentype does not specify anything in that respect, so manufacturers of typesetting software can do whatever they want ...) Thomas: to solve the problem at hand, you can try the new feature file I send along with a small test (I simply define a new feature that is to be applied after 'grbl', to deal specifically with the subscribed iotas).

Yes. I don't remember whether I already complained about it or not, but here's another (minimal) example to reproduce it: \starttext \startformula a+b=\int_{i=0}^{\infty}\Gamma\,dx \stopformula \stoptext The main problem (besides being quite slow for the default LM) is that "font loading" in ConTeXt+XeTeX now does the following: if ("FontName" is a valid font) then use "FontName" else use "[FontName]" end And that one forgets the third possibility: about the old tfm fonts which should be loaded without any quotes, for example rm-lmr12 \font\a="rm-lmr12" works, but \font\a="rm-lmr12" at 12pt doesn't, and ConTeXt tries to use that one. Normally TeX would stop: generate and report the error at that point, but ConTeXt currently skips those errors on purpose and tries to use an unexisting font, so it results in a broken PDF. What about \definefontsynonym [...] [rm-lmr12] [type=tfm] \definefontsynonym [...] [lmodern12-regular] [type=otf] or, use the already existing mechanism: \definefontsynonym [...] [tfm:rm-lmr12] [...] \definefontsynonym [...] [file:lmodern12-regular] [...] I know it's ugly, but I guess that one either needs: a) being more precise in font specifications inside ConTeXt and tell XeTeX exactly what kind of font needs to be loaded (an installed one, otf file inside texmf tree, or the old tfm) b) a harmless way to ask XeTeX if some font exists (instead of the current ugly hack) c) a new "extremely permissive" mode in XeTeX, which would accept the same synax for al the three kinds of fonts The fastest way to fix this is to create the third possibility in the if-else statement (I forgot where that one was, but I can take a look), but as an intermediate solution (until XeTeX gets more functionality in that respect, if ever), I guess that a) would be a must, although the definitions might look slightly less elegant/clean than they're now.

Unfortunately: still no reload of files when they changed, which is boring with the edit/compile/view cycle...

Installation was clean on Ubuntu 7.04i386, and it looks more clean also. -- luigi If your question is of interest to others as well, please add an entry to the Wiki! maillist : ntg-context@ntg.nl / http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context webpage : http://www.pragma-ade.nl / http://tex.aanhet.net archive : https://foundry.supelec.fr/projects/contextrev/ wiki : http://contextgarden.net ___ If your question is of interest to others as well, please add an entry to the Wiki! maillist : ntg-context@ntg.nl / http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context webpage : http://www.pragma-ade.nl / http://tex.aanhet.net archive : https://foundry.supelec.fr/projects/contextrev/ wiki : http://contextgarden.net ___

Re: [NTG-context] need help for the installation of luatools
Thank you, Thomas, Arthur, and Taco, I checked texmf.cnf. There are two texmf.cnf gwTeX/texmf.cnf ---> there is no code for the memory setup, it just describe the TDS structure. gwTeX/texmf/web2c/texmf.cnf ---> trie_size = 40 gwTeX/texmf.local/web2c/ no texmf.cnf Gerben made other cnf file(he said that it is for the context). gwTeX/texmf.pkgs/web2c/{context.cnf, natural.ctx} ---> trie_size.context = 50 The result of "kpsewhich texmf.cnf" is /usr/local/gwTeX/texmf.cnf. And "kpsewhich --expand-var = '$TEXMF' shows the directory system of gwTeX. At this moment, I don't know what I can do. I'll test it more after changing the memory setup. Thank you again.
