Where is that little space from? How can I get a left space of,

  \starttables[s0|l|]



I see. So, there is no space anymore.
But how can I get my 3cm?


If you do not use horizontal lines

\starttable[o(3cm)|l|]

Curiously enough, nobody has posted a solution that uses 'whatever', so 
here it is:

z0 = origin;% bottom left
z1 = (5,0); % bottom right
y3 = y2 = 10;
z3 = z0 + whatever*dir(87); % z3 is obtained by starting at z0 and
% moving along dir(87)
z2-z1 = whatever*(z3-z0);   % The line z1--z2 is parallel to z0--z3

That is, what you were trying to achieve:

angle(z3-z0) = dir(87);

can be written instead:

z3 - z0 = whatever*dir(87);

Re: [NTG-context] [MkII] Difference in output in minimals versus TeX Live 2009

2010-02-26 Thread Mojca Miklavec
I suspect (though I don't really know) that the difference comes from
different versions of TeX Gyre. There's a quick experiment you can do:

rsync -av \
/usr/local/texlive/2009/texmf-dist/fonts/tfm/public/tex-gyre/ \
/path/to/minimals/tex/texmf/fonts/tfm/public/tex-gyre/

(unless you want to make a backup, but you can quickly revent to the
old state anyway by updating the minimals.)

The weird thing is that it may be that the minimals contain an older
version, but I can fix that soon (I need to double-check why the font
didn't get updated automatically since many other fonts do).

maybe someone can also explain how the OFF key works. the behaviour is strange

[NTG-context] bookmarks point to page, not to section start

2010-02-26 Thread Mojca Miklavec
Hello Hans,

I suspect that bookmarks to sections point to pages only, not to the
exact position where the sections start.

I have another document generated with Word and when I click to it,
the viewer (Preview.app) goes straight to section start, while when I
generate the document with ConTeXt, it only goes to the page, not to
exact section start.

The behaviour seems to be the same in both MKII and MKIV (MKII only
doesn't respect the accented characters; but I understand the pain of
recoding).

I'm using the following code to place the bookmarks:

\setupinteraction
[state=start]
\setupinteractionscreen
[option=bookmark]
\placebookmarks
[section,subsection,subsubsection]
[section,subsection]

\starttext
\dorecurse{20}{\section{title} \input tufte}
\stoptext

Mojca

PS: I can send a sample word-generated document off-list for
comparison if needed.

It is declared frozen, but it may still happen that something changes
unintentionally (and bugs that are easy to fix might be fixed as
well).

No. Can you please send a sample tex & both pdf documents? (If it's
bigger than 40 or 60 kb, you need to post it somewhere.)

There was a big difference between TL 2008 and now (when the whole
font has been replaced from URW to TeX Gyre), but I see no reason why
you should get a different result now.

Hi,

is minimals supposed to have the same output using MkII as TeX Live
2009? Or have I missunderstood what does it mean that 'MkII is
frozen'?

I ask because I get different results on same document. I'm using
Palatino font. It seems related to spacing between letters in "il" and
"ij" that is larger in current minimals. Any ideas why?
