 What is the difference between footnote 1 and footnote 2, why does 
 the \O on footnote 1 fit in its line and not in footnote 2?
 There have both interlinespace[line=9.8pt] ...
   
 the height and depth of the line as calculated by tex based on the 
 actual text; 9.8 pt lineheight is nog enough to squeeze the char with 
 the most height and depth in so you need to choose a larger value 
 than 9.8pt (and maybe set lineskip to 0pt)



The awkward thing about this is that the chosen values are given by the 
publishers...

After some trying I saw that interlinespace[line=10.6pt] instead of 9.8pt would 
work. But this far beyond. 
The document I am working on is to be published as part of a series. So I can't 
change the footnote's interlinespace from 9.8pt to 10.6pt!

Is there truly no other workaround?

Re: [NTG-context] No TOC and other lists with \setuparranging

2007-02-25 Thread Willi Egger

Hi,

If you compile a document with page arrangement within the tex file,  
you need to run this file first without the \setuparranging command.  
After this you should insert the \setuparranging command and run  
texexec a SINGLE time.

This is normal behaviour of Context. It is related to overwriting the  
utility files, which loose the TOC and other info during multiple  
runs with the \setuparranging enabled.

You might use the commandline option --pdfarrange which will take  
care of the above mentioned effects.

Willi

[NTG-context] wrapping URL bug

2007-01-31 Thread Alan Bowen
There is a problem involving \setupinteraction and \useURL with \goto  
that prevents hyphenation of URL links in the body text.


The following works properly when the\setupinteraction line is  
commented out. Otherwise the URL runs in to the margin.


I am using ConTeXt  ver: 2007.01.23 13:32 MKII.

Perhaps I should elaborate and recast the problem. I am typesetting  
a text that includes a great number of URLs, which I have entered  
\useURL and \goto. Most of these URLs wrap nicely, but a there are  
a few which insist on running out into the margin. Now I thought I  
could handle this by introducing discretionary hyphens in the  
second field of \useURL because, so I thought, this field is a  
label and not the URL itself (which is in the fourth field).  
Plainly this is not working. So, if I cannot use discretionary  
hyphens {?), how do I get all the URLS to wrap properly?


Alan


A last try. I have discovered that the problem lies in my environment  
file: something in my specification of the output modes in my  
environment file is preventing the hyphenation of URLs using \useURL  
and \goto.


Regrettably, I have no idea what and my tests thus far have not  
identified the problem.  See the small sample file below. Any tips or

Re: [NTG-context] Another \setuparranging

Hi Michal

There is no implemented 3SIDE arranging. However there is XY

   height=210mm]
\setuplayout
[topspace=10mm,

 Good evening.

 Is there any SIMPLE way to add one more arranging scheme to
 \setuparranging command? I regularly typeset some document on a piece of
 paper that is 1/3 of A4, and want to print it in such a way that three
 of them are positioned side to side on one A4 paper. I've been doing it
 with pstops utility. Isn't there a simple way how make \setuparranging
 command to do it?

 And one more related question: Usually the document has just one page,
 so in the print version there are three same pages side to side to each
 other. Any hint how to do it?

 Many thanks for your help.

 Hans,

 can you elaborate on this? Some days ago, I had a problem which I
 suspect had the same cause. I had prepared a bibliography for one of
 my classes with Taco's module; it typset beautifully. To save paper,
 I wanted to typeset two A5 pages on one A4 landscape page and used

 \setuparranging[2*2,rotated]

 After compiling, the bibliography was gone! I was in a hurry, so I
 simply undid the arranging and reverted to real cut-and-paste, but
 utility files seem like the obvious culprit.

I don't understand the disease but I know the cure.  I use two (or more) 
internal modes thus:
--
\startmode[pruf]
\definepapersize[halff][width=5.0in,height=8.5in]
\setuppapersize[halff][letter]
\stopmode
.
\startmode[hal]
\definepapersize[halff][width=5.5in,height=8.5in]
\definepapersize[ful][width=8.5in,height=11in]
\setuppapersize[halff][ful]
\setuparranging[2UP,rotated,doublesided]
\stopmode
--
I run with  --mode=pruf 
until  things come out right.
Then I run just one time with
--mode=hal --arrange

The earlier runs create the TOC etc. and the last run arranges the pages (and 
also destroys the work files) But the TOC has already been added before the 
file-icide takes effect.

[NTG-context] Imorting multiple page pdf.

2006-09-27 Thread John R. Culleton
Some of my friends over on the Scribus list are struggling with
pamphlet layout and so on. It occured to me that if a multiple
page pdf created by Scribus were inserted into a Context file
then the Context prepress manipulation could be used to set it
up. Here is an edited fragment of an actual Context file I use every
other month:
--
\setupoutput[pdftex]
%%
\setuplayout[textwidth=4.25in,
location=middle,
footer=10pt,
header=0pt,
backspace=.75in,
textheight=8in],

\definepapersize[halff][width=5.5in,height=8.5in]
\definepapersize[ful][width=8.5in,height=11in]
\setuppapersize[halff][ful]
\setuparranging[2UP,rotated,doublesided]
\stopmode
%%
%%
--
Now is there a way to bring in properly sized pdf pages after 
this point and have them rearranged by Context? 

Could the whole file be brought in with one command?

Hi,

Indeed there is a calculation problem. Even if you define your papersize 
as a landscape paper with \definepapersize[Mylandscape][height=210mm, 
width=297mm]
the calculation is incorrect. Apparently the problem is not related to 
the option landscape or rotated.

[NTG-context] header misaligned and columns problem

2006-08-22 Thread Horacio Suarez

Hello

This is my page:

\definepapersize[argento][width=20cm,height=28cm]
\setuppapersize[argento][A3]
\setuppagenumbering[alternative=doublesided,location=]
\setuplayout[location=middle,marking=on,textwidth=150mm]

And everithig is fine, but headers are not aligned with text.

Also, I use 2 columns in most of the book, but 4 chapters uses 3 columns.

I use

\startcolumns[n=2, balance=yes,distance=8mm]

or

\startcolumns[n=3, balance=yes,distance=5mm]

In two columns is ok, but in 3 columns, all the 3 columns don´t fit the 
whole textwidth, I mean, the sum of the 3 columns width plus the 2 
intercolumns space are less (about 1cm) than 150mm, as setuplayout says.


Thankyou very much.

 \setuppagenumbering[alternative=doublesided,location=]
 \setuplayout[location=middle,marking=on,textwidth=150mm]

Quoting Hans from another thread

 it's dangerous to use dimensions in \setuplayout that get set 
 themselves

 also, textwidth is for special purposed and special effects, not to 
 be used here (spoils things)

So instead of specifying the textwidth, specify the backspace and 
cutspace and let context figure out the textwidth...

\setuplayout
   [width=middle,
location=middle,
backspace=2.5cm,
cutspace=2.5cm,
marking=on]


 And everithig is fine, but headers are not aligned with text.

 Also, I use 2 columns in most of the book, but 4 chapters uses 3 columns.

 I use

 \startcolumns[n=2, balance=yes,distance=8mm]

 or

 \startcolumns[n=3, balance=yes,distance=5mm]

 In two columns is ok, but in 3 columns, all the 3 columns don´t fit the whole 
 textwidth, I mean, the sum of the 3 columns width plus the 2 intercolumns 
 space are less (about 1cm) than 150mm, as setuplayout says.

The following works fine for me

\definepapersize[argento][width=20cm,height=28cm]
\setuppapersize[argento][A3]
\setuppagenumbering[alternative=doublesided,location=]
\setuplayout
   [width=middle,
location=middle,
backspace=2.5cm,
cutspace=2.5cm,
marking=on]

\showframe
\setupheadertexts[chapter][pagenumber]

\starttext

\chapter{Two Columns}
\startcolumns[n=2, balance=yes,distance=8mm]
\dorecurse{6}{\input knuth \endgraf}
\stopcolumns

\chapter{Three Columns}
\startcolumns[n=3, balance=yes,distance=5mm]
\dorecurse{6}{\input knuth \endgraf}

[NTG-context] infinite paper height

2006-07-18 Thread Mojca Miklavec
Hello,

Is there any way to create infinite paper size: such a paper that
all the content fits exactly on a single page? ̣(As a workaroung I can
still create a page of height 2m and then crop it if no other solution
is available.)

\setuplayout
[width=8cm]
\definepapersize
[infinite]
[width=12cm,
 height=100cm]
\setuppapersize
[infinite]
[infinite]

Thank you,

Thank you, that's great! I knew about TEXpage, but never
thought/forgot about such a misuse.

Except for one little (buggy?) detail:

\setuplayout
[width=8.55cm,
 topspace=0cm,
 backspace=0cm,
 header=0pt,
 footer=0pt,
 height=fit,
]

\definepapersize
[infinite]
[width=8.55cm,
 height=60cm]

\starttext
\startTEXpage
\section{bla}
\input tufte
\stopTEXpage
\stoptext

section is too low and consequently the last (few) line(s) are cropped.

The example on http://pub.mojca.org/presek/articles.tex also has the
last page wider than the first two.

Mojca

PS: this last request has nothing to do with the problem above, but I
have a little request if anyone is willing to help me. I need the file
mentioned above (http://pub.mojca.org/presek/article2.tex) to be
typeset in lucida (only to show it to the editor; they'll almost
certainly buy the font, but I need the example faster than I can ask
them to buy the font and figure out how to use it; they gave me 19 pfb
files, but they're dating back to 1990 and it seems to me that there
are not enough files anyway). Is anyone willing to compile the file
above with lucida font and send me the resulting PDF? I would be very
grateful for that.

The last page has a little problem with accents and everything is
shifted down, but I don't mind if they are a bit wrong this time since
it's only an example.

 The proportions 210/170=1.235 are ok on screen!

 Printing with ghostscript is ok too.

 Printing with acrobat is the problem.

 Obviously this is not a context problem. Soory!
   
acrobat talks with the printer driver and scales down to let the page fit into 
the printable area; you can disable this in the pribter settings

Make sure, that your printer does not perform any scaling.

[NTG-context] Footnotes on wrong page

2006-06-05 Thread [EMAIL PROTECTED]
I wrote about this a few days ago, but did not get a response, perhaps because 
I included sample code. So...this time I am including the main part of my code 
so you can perhaps see what I am doing wrong.

My problem is that many of my footnotes show up on the wrong page. Sometimes 
the text that references the footnote is at the bottom of a page, and the 
footnote number shows up with a small graphic arrow next to it. In these cases, 
the actual footnote text will show up on the next page. Also in this case, the 
footnote number with the footnote text will usually be labeled 1, even though 
the next footnote after it (the one that really belongs on that page) is 
numbered 1 also.

Sometimes footnote numbers appear in the text even though there is no footnote 
on any page that has that number.

Any help is appreciated.

[NTG-context] Printing labels with ConTeXt

2006-05-31 Thread Renaud AUBIN




Hi all,

I need to print labels on this kind of paper:
- A4 page with 24 labels (70mm x 36mm)
- 3 columns and 8 rows
- 4.5mm top margin, 4.5mm bottom margin

I use:

\definepapersize[DECAdry-70x36][width=70mm,height=36mm]
\setuppapersize[DECAdry-70x36][A4]
\setuppaper[nx=3,ny=8]
\setuparranging[XY]

I just need to know how to reserve a vertical white space (4.5mm) from
the top of the A4 page and put all my labels side-by-side (vertically
and horizontally).

slides halfway off the page. 

Can anyone spot an obvious goof?

 Of course. It was staring at me and I didn't see it. I missed two
 of them in fact.

 Thanks Willi.
 

 Ah I spoke too soon. The layout is OK but the TOC disapears when
 I use the \setuparranging. It works otherwise. I get a message on
 sysout:
   -  
 output file : apr06.tuo
 remark : no output file generated
  -  
 The apr06.tui file has the TOC entries, e.g.,
 -
 c \listentry{section}{1}{}{2006 Events Calendar}{2::0:0:1:0:0:0:0::25}{25}
 c \listentry{section}{2}{}{2007 Events Calendar}{2::0:0:2:0:0:0:0::25}{25}

 {2::0:0:5:0:0:0:0::25}{25}

 The log file says in part:
 ---
 ./content.tex
 system  : part,chapter,section not found/processed
 -

 content.tex is a called subfile containing just:
 ---
 \startcolumns[n=2]
 \placecontent[level=section, alternative=c]
 \stopcolumns
 ---

 I use a mode to create the booklet. When I don't use the mode the
 toc is fine. Here is the mode:
 --
 \startmode[hal]
 \definepapersize[halff][width=5.5in,height=8.5in]
 \definepapersize[ful][width=8.5in,height=11in]
 \setuppapersize[halff][ful]
 \setuparranging[2UP,rotated,doublesided]
 \setuplayout[margin=0pt,width=fit]
 \stopmode
 -

 The TOC is not absolutely critical to this particular job, but I
 would like to know what is happpening (or not happening in this
 case.)

   
use

texexec --arrange

which will do a normal run followed by an arrange one

(alternatively, use --once when you arrange)

\setuppapersize[Card][A4,landscape]

\setuplayout
[topspace=1cm,

\setuppaper[nx=2,ny=1]

 I feel frustating because I feel that it could be really simple to do

 I know that it could be done with overlay but I assume that there is a

[NTG-context] Absolute positioning of grafics in ConTeXt

2006-04-05 Thread Johannes Fichtinger
Hi all, 

I'm quite new to ConTeXt, but I've been working with LaTeX for several years
now. Now I faced a problem which I'm not able to solve in LaTeX which
probably can be solved in ConTeXt:

I need a possibility to set grafics in a book on exact, absolute positions.
Now I found the way for background images, like in the attached example.
But obviously, normal text is written above the background image. I need
now a possibility like this but for foreground grafics.

So, how can I set the position of grafics absolutely in ConTeXt?

Thanks,
Johannes.

My example:

--
\enableregime           [il1]
\mainlanguage           [de]
\setuplayout            [grid=yes,marking=on,horoffset=2cm,veroffset=2cm]
\definepapersize        [jo][width=14cm,height=18cm]
\setuppapersize         [jo][a4]

\useexternalfigure[wr][dpm][type=png, width=5cm, height=4cm]
\definelayer[wr-layer]
\defineoverlay[wr-overlay][\composedlayer{wr-layer}]
\setupbackgrounds[page][background={wr-overlay}]

[NTG-context] Multi-page tables

2006-03-08 Thread Randall Skelton
Hi all,

I'm having a bit of trouble getting multiple page tables to work when
also using \placetable for captions.  Essentially, I want:
  (1) Captions and the ability to reference with \in[].
  (2) Alignment within a cell at a decimal point.
  (3) Span multiple pages with header/footer.

I think I would prefer to use the standard 'TABLES' method but it
looks like item 2 is only supported in natural tables?

Below are two examples.  I don't get page breaks in either case and
the table runs off the bottom of pages 2 and 3.

Thanks,
Randall

[NTG-context] Disappearing TOC.

I have a TOC for a newsletter created in the usual way. But if I
set it up for printing on my local printer then the TOC
disappears.

This works:
\setupoutput[pdftex]
\setuppapersize[letter][letter]

But this kills the TOC:
\setupoutput[pdftex]
\definepapersize[tabloid][width=11in,height=17in]
\setuppapersize[letter][tabloid]
\setuparranging[2UP,rotated,doublesided]

If it matters here is the TOC code:

Re: [NTG-context] Disappearing TOC.

2006-03-07 Thread Willi Egger
Hi John,

I believe this has to do with the arranging! So run texexec without 
arranging first. Check that the TOC is there.
Herafter run texexec again, this time with arranging and run it only once.

I hope this helps!

[NTG-context] \totalnumberofpages and \setuparranging [2UP]

2005-12-14 Thread John Magolske

Hi all,

I'm having trouble getting \totalnumberofpages to display while using 
\setuparranging [2UP].


What I'd like to do is print a letter, two columns to a page, then 
cut the page in two so the letter is in long columns with fractional 
page numbering at the bottom of each column, 1/4, 2/4, 3/4, 4/4. But 
what's happening is 1/1, 2/2, 3/3, 4/4.


\definepapersize[4.25x11][width=4.25in,height=11in]
\setuppapersize [4.25x11][letter]
\setuplayout[backspace=.75in, width=2.75in,
topspace=.75in, top=0in,
header=0in, footer=.5in, height=9.75in]
\setuppagenumbering[location={footer,right},right={~/~}{\lastpage}]
\setuparranging [2UP]

Removing \setuparranging [2UP] allows \totalnumberofpages to work 
fine, and upon replacing it, the first run works. But subsequent runs 
revert back to 1/1, 2/2, etc.  This is using the texexec --pdf 
command.


I read through the thread \totalnumberofpages  texexec 
--pages=1:2, but being new to ConTeXt, I can't quite make out if 
that's relevant.


Any suggestions much appreciated.

will have a play with all the suggestion and see if I can get it to
work.


For reference, this is aimed at printing multiple identical labels in
each batch, rather than distinct content on each label, so I don't worry
about the font size changing between the individual labels in the run or
anything.

Regards,
Daniel

[NTG-context] Paper size, MediaBox, CropBox and cropping

2005-11-23 Thread Pearson, Mark (Capita Symonds)
Hi all,

Does anyone know if it is possible to force the PDF output from ConTeXt
to contain both a /MediaBox and /CropBox, having set up a document in
the following manner:

\definepapersize
[BusinessCard]
[width=85mm,height=54mm]

\setuppapersize
[BusinessCard]
[A5,landscape]

\setuplayout
[location=middle,
 marking=on,
 header=0mm,
 footer=3mm,
 topspace=0mm,
 leftmargin=0mm,
 rightmargin=0mm,
 width=85mm,
 height=54mm,
 backspace=0mm]

When I look at the PDF output I can only find the following box
definition:

/MediaBox [0 0 595.2756 419.5276]

which works out to the size of the A5 sheet (595pt ~= 210mm, 419 ~=
148mm).

However what I want to be able to encode in the PDF file is the
size/position of the 'BusinessCard', or to put it another way, the
positions of the crop marks, so that I can act upon that information
using an external tool (specifically to generate a PNG image preview
of the business card PDF with correct cropping)

Many thanks,

Mark.

[NTG-context] distance with \godown

2005-10-20 Thread Jessica Holle

Hi

I have a problem... I I don't know in which way I should solve...

I've make a presentation. It's not very fine done but I'm proud that
this works :-)
I've made a graphic in metafun and make a overlay with this as the
background.
Then I defined a framed box with the same values as the graphic, use
the overlay as a background and nice I have my menu.
But then I make a small space with \godown and now the framed
section goes down and up from page to page.
This phenomenon is only when I do the link (\goto) on the whole
framed. When I put the link on the text there is no problem.
Hope aou understand my problem it's difficult to understand.

I think you can compile this and look to the left side, hope it
works to compile
here is my tex file (not nice but works)

Re: [NTG-context] distance with \godown

2005-10-20 Thread Willi Egger

Hello Jessica,

Hm, indeed your code does give a somewhat strange behaviour. - I played 
with it a bit and I changed the following things.
   1. Make alle MP-graphics which are static 
\startreusableMPgraphic..\stopreusableMPgraphic. Use in the 
layerdefinitions \reuseMPgraphic{} -- This makes the compilation a couple of
times faster, because MP must not be called for the calculation of all 
graphics at all pages.
   2. In order to get the kasten steady all lines should start with 
\gotopage{...}[]. Another point is, that you might  want to have a look 
at pp 113 of the metafun manual.


I do not know, whether this is wat you had in mind.

Kind regards Willi

[NTG-context] Help with \setuplayout[grid=yes]

2005-08-30 Thread Randall Skelton
Hi all,

Attached is an example showing my misunderstanding about grid
alignment. The attached works as expected when
\setuplayout[grid=no] is used or the 'Author table' is commented
out. The inclusion of the little table in the text is
really just to convince myself that I can have a table with the grid
enabled.

Any and all suggestions are greatly appreciated.

Cheers,
Randall

[NTG-context] XY arranging ignores dx/dy

2005-08-03 Thread Angus Lees
The XY arranging macro basically ignores dx/dy parameters by always
padding out the space between pages.

Here's the existing ConTeXt macro for reference - removing \vss and
\hss makes it do the right thing (imo).  I'd give a simple patch, but
I think the ideal behaviour might be to pad if (and only if) dx/dy
were not specified, which is starting to push my TeX skills.

\def\pusharrangedpageXY#1%
  {\doglobal\increment\arrangedpageN
   \reportarrangedpage\arrangedpageN
   \doglobal\increment\arrangedpageM
   \global\setbox\arrangedpageB\hbox
 \ifdim\@@ppwidth\zeropoint to \@@ppwidth \fi
 {\ifvoid\arrangedpageB\else
\unhbox\arrangedpageB\hss\hskip\@@ppdx\hss
  \fi
  \box#1}%
   \ifnum\arrangedpageM\arrangedpageX\else
 \global\setbox\arrangedpageA\vbox
  \ifdim\@@ppheight\zeropoint to \@@ppheight \fi
   {\offinterlineskip
\ifvoid\arrangedpageA\else
  \unvbox\arrangedpageA\vss\vskip\@@ppdy\vss
\fi
\box\arrangedpageB}%
 \doglobal\newcounter\arrangedpageM
   \fi
   \ifnum\arrangedpageN\arrangedpageT\else
 \poparrangedpages
   \fi}


Minimal test, note the dx/dy distances:

 \definepapersize[label][width=30mm,height=20mm]
 \setuppapersize[label][A4]
 \setuppaper[dx=1mm,dy=1mm,nx=2,ny=6]
 \setuparranging[XY]

Hi John,

That was the same for me: \rotated is not defined.
However looking into my ConTeXt archives I found an example about

that the following works: I hope it is what you are looking for...

[NTG-context] Problem with figure placing

2005-05-05 Thread Richard Gabriel
Hello ConTeXters,
I have the following problem with placing figures into the document:
Sometimes, when there are more larger images and fewer text, TeX lets 
some of the images run out of the page (see the attached screenshot).
This hapens in very, very seldom cases - e.g. whole the document 
contains more than 200 images and this issue occurs on one or two places...

For placing images, I'm using the following commands:
\page[bigpreference]
\placefigure[here][fig-xyz]{Figure 
caption}{\externalfigure[xyz.png][scale=3000,maxwidth=\textwidth]}

The \page[bigpreference] command handles this situation quite well 
except certain cases (like it's shown in the attachment). I really don't 
understand how TeX can typeset anything outside the given page area...
Here is my page setup:

\definepapersize[MAN][width=17.5cm,height=22cm]
\setuppapersize[MAN][A4]
\setuplayout[location=middle,
marking=on,
topspace=1cm,
backspace=1.5cm,
height=middle,
width=middle,
header=1cm,
footer=1cm]
Does anybody guess?
Many thanks,
Richard

[NTG-context] ConTeXt oddities

2005-05-01 Thread Frank Grieshaber
Dear fellow-ConTeXters,
working with Context I noticed some small, strange behaviours:
1. I arranged pages in the following way:
\definepapersize[myCustomLayout][width=12cm, height=19cm]
\setuppapersize[myCustomLayout][A4,landscape]
\setuparranging[2SIDE]
now, when I use \showsetups I get the following values:
paperhight: 18.9973cm
paperwidth: 11.99829cm
(happens with the rest of layout-definitions as well)
well, sure enough nobody will see the difference in print... but 
nevertheless a bit annoying if you wanted to show the result of 
\showsetups to your clients (maybe the values are converted from cm to 
pt and back again?)

2. for control of orphans and widows I use the following:
\clubpenalty=8000
\widowpenalty=8000
it seems, this has to be inserted after \starttext, which is - I think - 
not a too good place for such a global definition,  shouldn't it be in 
the setup area before \starttext? but there I cant't get it working. Or 
am I doing something wrong with the commands?

3. if a command has lots of options it's better to sort of 
pretty-print those like the following:

\setuplayout[
backspace=15mm,
cutspace=10mm,
...
grid=yes,
marking=on,
]
After some time (lots of time..) I figured out that the last , is a 
must, without it, the last option is ignored - why is that?

4. I am well aware this has been asked before on this list, but no good 
solution came up: I need the footnote ref number to be beneath the main 
text, not in the small blank space between the text and the margin 
column. I managed to get it working with the hack by Paul Tremblay 
posted on this list some time ago and defined my own \myFootnote-command 
for it, but that is a quick and dirty solution, there has to be a 
better way, so I'd like to raise the question once again: How can this 
be done? Is it that difficult to change this kind of strange setting of 
footnotes?

Many thanks for your answers,

[NTG-context] \showlayout curiosity.

2005-03-24 Thread John R. Culleton
The following code should, by my calculations, generate two
pages. However it generates five, one for \ShowLayout and four
for \showlayout.

Remove the t-layout module and the \ShowLayout statement and it
still generates four.

This is an inconvenience and not a deal breaker but I am curious
about why the extra pages are created.

[NTG-context] Layout questions

2005-03-14 Thread Marcin Borkowski
Hello!

OK, thank you for your answers to my questions.  Now another bunch, this 
time I started reading the section on layout in the manual.

When using \setuppapersize with one argument, does it imply that the
default value of the second parameter is equal to the first one?  If I
use both, does it imply that the smaller page (determined by the
second argument) is centered on the real paper (with size defined by
the first arg)?

What do the options offset and scale for \definepapersize mean?
Are there any other options other than these two and height and
width?

Thanks in advance and greetings

no, \setuppapersize[A3] will map in onto width=max(width(A4),width(A3)) etc

no, at least not officially

Re: [NTG-context] Paper size page arranging

2005-02-24 Thread Willi Egger
Hi  Mojca,
The most elegant way would of course be to have the document setup with 
suitable pages. Then you can use the \setuparranging[XY] command, which 
is basically meant for preparing businesscards and labels. This looks 
then like

\setupoutput[pdftex]
\setuppapersize [A5,portrait][A4,landscape]
\setuppaper
[dx=2mm,
dy=0mm,
nx=2,
ny=1,
margin=0,
width=297mm,
height=210mm]
\setuplayout
[topspace=10mm]
\setuparranging[XY]
\starttext
\showframe
\chapter{Ward}
\input ward
\chapter{Tufte}
\input tufte
\chapter{Knuth}
\input Knuth
\stoptext
If your document is already a PDF with A4 pages in it, you might use the 
following command to arrange the pages:

texexec --pdfcombine --combination=2*2 inputfile.pdf --result=outputfile
This approach is meant for more than two pages per sheet.
Yet another approach could be
texexec --pdfarrange --paper=a5a4 --print=2up --result=outputfile 
inputfile.pdf

As the last two texexec statements work on pdf files, the extension has 
to be stated for the inputfile.
For the option paper all DIN papersizes from A0 to A9 can be used.

There is an article published in the MAPS28/2002. This issue of the MAPS 
will be free for downloading in the next days.

Kind regards
Willi
Mojca Miklavec wrote:
The command
\setuplayout[location=middle,scale=.5]
scales the document correctly, but if I use
\setuparranging[2*2]
for example, the original scaling is broken.
What effect exactly does 'scale=...' in \definepapersize have?
There must surely exist a very simple and elegant solution to typeset 
usual A4 pages scaled down to A5, so that two pages are placed on one in 
lanscape mode, like in:

1. page (A4 landscape with two A4 pages scaled to A5)
*---*---*
|   |   |
| 1 | 2 |
|   |   |
*---*---*
2. page
*---*---*
|   |   |
| 3 | 4 |
|   |   |
*---*---*
... or that any page number (n*n or 2n*n in landscape mode, maybe some 
other number if page proportions are different; and some blank space is 
left on the borders) is placed on one page, like in (for 6*3):

*--*--*--*--*--*--*
| 1| 2| 3| 4| 5| 6|
*--*--*--*--*--*--*
| 7| 8| 9|10|11|12|
*--*--*--*--*--*--*
|13|14|15|16|17|18|
*--*--*--*--*--*--*
\setuparranging[...] does the job, but it is only suitable if someone 
really wants to make a booklet out of it and one has to supply 
original page sizes (for example A6 to be printed as 2*4 on A4).

Thank you,
Mojca

[NTG-context] Bad page breaks!

2005-02-11 Thread G.C.H.M. Verhaag
 Dear ConTeXt-users,
I'm trying to typeset a small book using ConTeXt (TeXLive 2004), and use 
the following setup:

\setupbodyfont[rm,12pt]
\definepapersize[BOOK][width=140mm,height=210mm]
\setuppapersize[BOOK][A4]
\setuplayout[
[topspace=24mm,
 header=8mm,
 headerdistance=10mm,
 backspace=19.5mm,
 leftmargin=15.5mm,
 rightmargin=23mm,
 footerdistance=5mm,
 footer=4mm,
 height=fit,
 width=fit,
 marking=on,
 location=middle]
Page breaks are usually calculated automatically by TeX, but I notice 
that in my case they turn out to be very bad. A lot of pages are 
involved, so I wonder how this can be improved? Sometimes even 3 lines 
could be added without any difficulty to a page by TeX before inserting 
a page break!

I've tried to use \adaptlayout but it doesn't seem to work, no effect!
Has it perhaps something to do with the setup I use?
Regards,
   Geert

[NTG-context] Update problems: TOC

2004-03-08 Thread Mari Voipio

Hello, all ConTeXters!

I finally got around to trying TeXLive2003 and the ConTeXt there. The good
news is that it installs into Windows2000 like a charm and all the old
font woes are now past worries, the fonts worked the first try. After
installing TeXLive I downloaded the newest ConTeXt from Pragma's pages and
it seems to be a working installation, too.

However, I have a problem to which I didn't find a solution in the mailing
list archives:
The Table of Contents doesn't work and that hangs the whole thing. If I
get rid of the command \placecontent, everything works perfectly, but once
I try to compile the file(s) with a TOC, this is what I get:

myContents : - Table of contents
(./pr-03.tuo
! Undefined control sequence.
\exitloop -\let \endofloop
\nodoloop
argument ...\zeropoint \unskip \else \exitloop
  \fi
\doloop ...@@arecurse \recursedepth \endcsname {#1
  }\global [EMAIL PROTECTED] \let
\csname...

\removeunwantedspaces ...kip \else \exitloop \fi }
  \fi
\endstrut ...trut \fi \else \removeunwantedspaces

\normal...
argument ...tentry {\v!hoofdstuk }{Introduction}
  }
...
l.7 ...1}{1}{Introduction}{2::0:1:0:0:0:0:0::1}{5}

?

---

Below you'll find a simplified version of my setups etc, maybe that will
help to pinpoint the problem. I hope somebody has a solution as I won't be
able to upgrade to any newer ConTeXt's until this is fixed.


Thanks for any help,

Mari

Hi Robert,

while composing my solution to your question Hans was of course faster 
and gives immediately multiple approaches.
You might want to have a look at my solution because it is basically 
intended to print addres-labels.
Because of restriction of the meilinglist the picture is not included, 
but you can simply replace the picture in the
logo definition ...

Success!

Weltkrieg fielen, hatte sich besonders der Maler, Grafiker und
Kunstgewerbler Karl schon fr\{u}h einen Namen machen k\{o}nnen,
weshalb dieser in Fachkreisen bisher als der bekanntere der Schmoll-Br\{u}der
galt, bedingt auch durch seine Jahrzehnte w\{a}hrende Lehrt\{a}tigkeit
in der Architektur-Fakult\{a}t der Technischen Hochschule Stuttgart
(1907-1946), der er 1927/29 auch als Rektor (und Jubil\{a}umsrektor)
vorstand.\footnote{Zu Karl SvE. vgl.: Clementine Schack von Wittenau:
Karl Schmoll von Eisenwerth. Malerei, Graphik, Glaskunst. Ausstellungskatalog
(Gem\{a}ldegalerie Dachau, Museum K\{u}nstlerkolonie Darmstadt,
Kreismuseum Zons). Stuttgart 1995 (im Folgenden zitiert als:
A.Kat. Stuttgart 1995). Wegen der pers\{o}nlichen Beziehungen
KSvE's war die Wanderausstellung au{\sz}erdem im saarl\{a}ndischen
St.Wendel (St\{a}dtisches Museum) und im Ober\{o}sterreichischen
Landesmuseum Linz zu sehen.
Durch diese Monographie, in der auch FSgE. erw\{a}hnt wird,
kam der Gedanke, sich im Rahmen der vorliegenden Arbeit eingehender
mit FSgE. zu befassen.}
Mit einer zeitlebens geradezu bescheidenen und zur\{u}ckhaltenden
Wesensart stand dagegen der vier Jahre j\{u}ngere Fritz Schmoll
insbesondere w\{a}hrend seiner fr\{u}hen Schaffenszeit etwas im
Schatten des \{a}lteren Bruders, der mit seinen weiterreichenden
Beziehungen die berufliche Laufbahn des J\{u}ngeren zu unterst\{u}tzen
suchte. In M\{u}nchen, das um 1900 im Kunsthandwerk f\{u}hrend
war, engagierte sich Fritz Schmoll im Sinne der hier von Hermann
Obrist gegr\{u}ndeten Debschitz-Schule rasch im Kunstgewerbe des
Jugendstils auf nahezu allen Gebieten (Schmuck, metallene Tafelservice
und Gebrauchsger\{a}te verschiedenster Art, Textilien, M\{o}bel).
Daneben begann er mit kleinplastischen Arbeiten. Einen Schwerpunkt
im Bereich des Kunstgewerbes stellten jedoch seine vielfach auch
ausgef\{u}hrten M\{o}belentw\{u}rfe.
Fritz Schmolls bildhauerisches Wirken, das von den kleinplastischen
Arbeiten im kunstgewerblichen Bereich (geschnitzte Elfenbeinanh\{a}nger,
Medaillen und Plaketten, fig\{u}rliche Kleinplastiken, ausgef\{u}hrt
in Holz, Metall und Keramik) zu gr\{o}{\sz}er dimensionierten Skulpturen
und Plastiken gef\{u}hrt hatte (rundplastische Portr\{a}ts, figurative
und ornamentale Bauplastiken, Brunnen, Denk- und Grabm\{a}ler)
war durch eine religi\{o}se Haltung mit bestimmt, wie sie sich
in vielen sakralen und sepulkralen Auftr\{a}gen bekundet. Vom
ersten Entwurf bis zum letzten Schliff f\{u}hrte er bei seiner
T\{a}tigkeit f\{u}r sakrale und memoriale Auftr\{a}ge im Sinne eines
mittelalterlichen Werkmeisters, der anonym schuf, zumeist auch
alles eigenh\{a}ndig aus. Dieser Haltung kam die nach dem Vorbild
mittelalterlicher Bauh\{u}tten anonyme Arbeitsorganisation des
Volksbund Deutsche Kriegsgr\{a}berf\{u}rsorge sehr entgegen, f\{u}r
den Fritz Schmoll seit den drei{\sz}iger Jahren bis kurz vor seinem
Tod, 1963, t\{a}tig war.

 I want to set up a book 5.5 x 8.5 with .5in margins left and right.

 \setuppapersize[bok][letter]
 \setuplayout[marginwidth=.5in,location=middle]

The problem here is that you need to play with backspace, leftmargin
and leftmargindistance. To verify, use the layout[1] module  and add

\usemodule [layout]
\ShowLayout[units=in]

in your document. The default in ConTeXt is that 
leftmargin + leftmargindistance  backspace, so the layout gets
shifted a bit. It is not really a shift, because the backspace
parameter sets the left edge of the text.

[NTG-context] merging pdf (repost)

2003-08-14 Thread scarso luigi
Hello, I use this code to merge file1.pdf, file2.pdf, file3.pdf  in
file4.pdf

% format=english
\definepapersize[A3large][width=320mm,height=450mm,offset=0pt]
\setuppapersize[A3,landscape][A3large,landscape]
\setuplayout
[backspace=0pt,marking=on,
 height=middle,width=middle,location=middle,
 topspace=0pt,
 header=0pt,
 footer=0pt]
\starttext';

\insertpages[file1.pdf][width=0pt]
\insertpages[file2.pdf][width=0pt]
\insertpages[file3.pdf][width=0pt]
\stoptext

where 
file1 is481 031 bytes
file2 is  1 277 167 bytes and
file3 is 43 574 bytes. I expected ~2 Mbytes for file4.pdf but 
file4 is 10 601 693 bytes, ie ~five times the size expected.
Why ?

Thanks in advance
luigi

PS.
I have a context distribution that is 1 year old, but i can't actually
upgrade it (well, if I must do it, I will do !)

Thanks Hans for the answer.

I made another try with
file1.tex:

\setuppapersize[A3,landscape][A3,landscape]
\starttext
\dorecurse{1500}{\input tufte \par \input knuth \par}
\stoptext


and merge.tex:

\definepapersize[A3large][width=320mm,height=450mm,offset=0pt]
\setuppapersize[A3,landscape][A3,landscape]
\setuplayout
[backspace=0pt,marking=on,
 height=middle,width=middle,location=middle,
 topspace=0pt,
 header=0pt,
 footer=0pt]
\starttext
\insertpages[file1.pdf][width=0pt]
\stoptext

The results are:
 799537 ago  7 17:55 file1.pdf
1515097 ago  7 17:56 merge.pdf

Also pdffonts file1.pdf give
name type emb sub uni object ID
  --- --- --- -
EGNYTD+CMR12 Type 1   yes yes no   6  0


but  pdffonts merge.pdf give
name type emb sub uni object ID
  --- --- --- -
AGPRLI+CMSS8 Type 1   yes yes no  15  0
MGUYCG+CMR12 Type 1   yes yes no   7  0
:
:
MGUYCG+CMR12 Type 1   yes yes no   7  0


ie the  line
MGUYCG+CMR12 Type 1   yes yes no   7  0
 is repeated 408 (yes, four hundred) times .

Do I mess with pdftex.cfg or some *.map files ?

[NTG-context] \setuplayout parameters

2003-08-08 Thread John Culleton
I want to set up a book 5.5 x 8.5 with .5in margins left and right. 
During the development process I want to be able to print it on
US standard 8.5 x 11 sheet of paper.

Here is my current prologue (I have tried several):
\setupoutput[pdftex]
\definepapersize[bok][width=5.5in,height=8.5in]
\setuppapersize[bok][letter]
\setuplayout[marginwidth=.5in,location=middle]
\showframe

When the resultant pdf is printed via Acrobat Reader I find the 
following anomalies:

Total width of page outline: 5 7/16 in.
Width of actual text block: 4.5 in approx. (this is OK.)
Width of text block outline: 3 29/32 in (text overlaps block outline.)
And so on. There are gaps between the margin outlines and the text 
block outline. The margin outlines are the wrong size. 

When I put the document in final form with
\setuppapersize{bok][bok]
and comment out \showframe
Then the text block is not quite centered: the left margin is smaller 
than the right margin. 

Using Xpdf instead of Acrobat Reader shows the same anomalies.
Changing marginwidth to margin shows the same anomalies. and so on.
