[NTG-context] TeXLive newbie can't run Context
I'm the newest of newbies and have installed of TexLive on a PC running Vista. The post-installation tests described in Section 3.5 of the TeXLive Guide run just fine (Tex, LaTex, pdfLaTex). No tests were included for Context, so I failed around trying to run Texexec amd Texmfstart to no good end. How can I determine if Context was installed properly and how do I run Context?

Re: [NTG-context] TeXLive newbie can't run Context
Hans, Please pardon these very basic questions. Do I understand correctly that Context requires that a Ruby compiler that is not part of the TexLive package be installed? I had not previously heard of the Ruby language so know nothing about it. I assume that there are competing compilers/interpreters for the language and various releases of those compilers. Which compilers are compatible with TexLive? Does this compiler need to be installed in any particular directory?

Why do you make the detour via PS at all?

There's no reason why a table should be resolution dependend at all,
consisting just of fonts and lines.
But since you try to go via PS, there might be lowres pixel fonts (PK)
involved.
Please provide a complete minimal example and describe how and why you
force ConTeXt to produce PS.

It seems to be but I'm such a novice using these tools that I may be
preflighting with the wrong options set. Knowing that the lower resolution on

[NTG-context] Table of Contents issues
Using a very recent download of TexLive 2010 (MKII) on my PC, my success
generating a useful table of contents has been somewhat limited.
I can't figure out how to put the title, Contents, in the font I desire.
The various parameters I found in the documentation affect the chapter
titles and the page numbers but nothing I've found allows me to control the
title of the ToC. What am I overlooking?
I would also like for the unnumbered chapter titles, such as introduction
or preface, to align with the other chapter titles, not with their numbers.
Aligntitle seems to have no effect on anything from what I have seen.

Re: [NTG-context] Table of Contents issues
This works. Now I want to make the chapter titles larger but my experiments
using style have failed. There must be a different way to do this. If I
understand bodyfont correctly, it is used for the text of the document, not
for the titles. In my case, the body is in a serif font and the titles are
sanserif.

[NTG-context] Using fonts from multiple families

Iwono-heavy for chapter titles (sansbold), Iwona-light (sans) for page

titles and I can't change their size without changing the size of the text

Re: [NTG-context] Using fonts from multiple families
Thank you very much, Wolfgang. The time zone difference is helpful
sometimes. I went to bed last night very frustrated and woke up this morning
to find your solution in my inbox. It is also good to see that your
assistance to me has also helped someone else. I do have a couple of
questions:
1. Why aren't the \usetypescriptfile commands necessary?
2. It never occurred to me to consider the dedication as a separate chapter.
Logically, it is but is the inverse of other chapters, sort of, in that the
chapter title isn't normally displayed and the body of the chapter is
printed in a different font than are the other chapters.

Re: [NTG-context] Using fonts from multiple families
This should be my last question on this topic. I want to center the
dedication but align=middle (or center) and alternative=middle added to
\definestartstop[dedication] seem to have no effect. I can't seem to find a
simple way to center an odd line of paragraph of text. Using a frame seems
like using a sledgehammer to pound a tack.

Re: [NTG-context] Getting paragraphs to indent
Those things worked. Now I'm trying to figure out which fonts are standard
with TexLive MKII. So far, I've identified the following:
modern
palatino
modernvariable
postscript includes Times Roman, Helvetica and Courier
antykwa-torunska referred to as just antykwa
fourier
bookman
optima
iwona
iwona-light
iwona-heavy
chancery
Have I missed any?

Don't define two commands with the same name, \definestartstop[dedication]
was meant as alternative to \definehead[dedication]. To force a page break
you can add before=\page to \definestartstop.

Enable indenting, \indenting is just a synonym for \setupindenting but

[NTG-context] Chapter Command causes ToC to not display correctly
The code below seems to work fine when the first MyChapterCommand is
commented out and the second one is active. However, when the first one is
active and the second one is commented out, the ToC does not display
properly. What could be causing this to happen?
I know that the first MyChapterCommand is not appropriate and use an
appropriate on in the front matter environment for the actual book.

[NTG-context] Chapters not sowing up in ToC
When attempting to place only the chapter number on the first page of a
chapter, the chapters do not appear in the ToC the ToC does not display.
Inserting #2 just before the last } in the definition for MyChapterCommand
causes the ToC to appear with chapter names although it and the chapters are
ugly.
Is it necessary to include chapter names at the beginning of chapters?
Perhaps this is intended because leaving chapter names off the beginning of
chapters would reduce the value of the ToC. Maybe ToCs are not desired in
such situations.

Re: [NTG-context] Braces in TexLive MKIV
Thanks, Wolfgang. My document now compiles without errors and produces a
PDF. It is my understanding that one of the ways MKIV differs greatly from
MKII is in the handling of fonts. Which documentation should I look at first
to learn about fonts in MKIV (not that I understand them in MKII yet)?

Re: [NTG-context] \stretched in chapter titles in MKII
I'm sorry for being so thick but this code errors out when I run it under
TexLive 2010 MKIV. The problem seems to be in the processing of textcommand,
so I commented it out. The error went away and the \ChapterNumberCommand
seemed to execute correctly. However, I want to stretch the title as well as
the chapter number, so that is not a solution. I couldn't find documentation
for \structuretitle and \structurenumber and am completely lost.

I have a somewhat related question in that I am creating a document that will be used as an appendix to other documents. So, I can control the various aspects of the PDF that is created and use \copypages. What I want to do is number the pages A-1, etc. (or B-1, etc. depending on which appendix it will be placed). That will avoid coordinating page numbers with those in the documents to which it will be appended. What I can't figure out how to do is to prefix the pagenumber with A- (or B-).

Re: [NTG-context] Fonts in ConTeXt is now available from boekplan.com
Is this book going to be available in the U.S.? If so, where can I find it? If not, may I suggest that you upload your PDFs to CreateSpace.com and have it made available to buyers through Amazon.com. I normally don't like limiting a book's availability to a single reseller, but for a niche book it makes sense. There is no cost to upload the book but an optional $39 fee that reduces print costs dramatically. There is no inventory cost as books are printed only when customers order copies. If multiple titles are to be published, using Lightning Source may make more sense for serving the U.S. market.

darted out on a little piece of green in front, and warned off two

Re: [NTG-context] Am not getting Roman numeral page numbers in MKIV
I used to think I was of average intelligence but I can't figure out to do
the most basic thing in ConTeXt. My current problems with this simple code
are:
1. Front matter page numbers are not lower-case Roman numerals although they
are listed as such in the TOC.
2. The Introduction is not listed in the TOC.
3. Page numbering isn't reset to 1 in the bodymatter section.
Obviously, I'm not reading the correct documentation or am too stupid to
understand what I am reading.

Re: [NTG-context] Am not getting Roman numeral page numbers in MKIV
Thank you for taking the time to look into this for me, Dalyoung. I changed bodymatter to bodypart in two places and got the same results as you did. Page numbering is reset to 1 for the Introduction. However, I still don't get Roman numerals in the front part and, as you also experienced, the TOC is not listed in the TOC. I am using Texlive 2010, which I downloaded on February 11, just two months ago yesterday. One would expect such basic functions to be rock solid in MKIV by now. What version are you using? I have avoided downloading Minimals for the reasons mentioned in the thread currently running on documentation plus that I don't want to be constantly downloading new versions because of serious bugs and having simple things that formerly worked to no longer work due to one of these bugs. I am not using advanced features by any means. This is very frustrating. BTW, where did you read to use front part instead of frontmatter?

[NTG-context] Is Minimals ready for non-developers to use?
Dalyoung,
I attempted to install Minimals on my Windows system--twice--to no avail. I
selected the current option because I don't want to be constantly updating
the software when I am not using anything that remotely resembles cutting
edge features. I am using a short, lower-case directory name as suggested.
MKII appears to work fine but I get the following messages when I try to
compile Hello.tex:
MTXrun | forcing cache reload
MTXrun | resolvers: loading configuration file
'C:/ctm/context/tex/texmf/web2c/texmfcnf.lua'
MTXrun | resolvers
MTXrun | resolvers
MTXrun | resolvers
MTXrun | the resolver databases are not present or outdated

MTXrun | resolvers: remembering file 'mtx-context.lua'
MTXrun | resolvers: using suffix based filetype 'lua'
MTXrun | unknown script 'context.lua' or 'mtx-context.lua'
I also get similar errors when attempting to run the following:
mtxrun --selfupdate
mtxrun --generate
luatools --generate
context --make
From the message archives I see that others have had similar problems but I
don't understand what the suggested fixes were. One massage stated that the
instructions on ConTeXtGarden were deprecated, but I don't know if the
instructions have been changed since that time.
Do you have any idea what the problem might be?

Dear Tom,
What version are you using?
I am using minimal not TeXlive2010. Of course, there are some bugs in beta.
But it would be fixed soon.
Moreover, you can have more than one Minimal folder. So it is easy to use
stable version if the beta has bugs.
BTW, where did you read to use front part instead of frontmatter?
There was a thread whose title is Roman Page numbers.
And among the mails on 2009. 2. 4, there was a sample written by Wolfgang .

[NTG-context] Is Minimals ready for non-developers to use? (Tom)
Thank you for explaining this, Mojca. Knowing that it will be fixed sometime before September gives me hope. In the meantime, I think I have a workaround that, although awkward, will create a correct PDF. What I will do is create a PDF that is correct except for the TOC that Context generates, create a correct TOC PDF with another tool, then create a new PDF with the good pages from the original PDF and the bad TOC replaced by the good one. Is there a list of known bugs somewhere? That would eliminate a lot of frustration and your having to deal with problems that are already being handled. Is it possible for one to create a new font style? For example, if I have a need for two different sanserif fonts (Iwona and Helvetica for the sake of argument) to be used sporadically throughout a document. It would be nice to be able to do something like \ss1 to select the first one and \ss2 to select the second one. \ss to select the first one and \aa (or two other letters) to select the other.

Installing the latest version of Minimals worked fine but I wonder why they even advertise that there is a stable version to be downloaded. When minimals were created, a new stable version was released approximately once a week. It used to be a problem to get the beta version working since beta often depended on a new version of luatex (which was also released every two/three weeks, but often not synchronized with ConTeXt releases). Now Hans only releases a stable version twice a year or so. The problem is that minimals have not been designed with that in mind and there is only a single version of texmfcnf.lua and only a single version of luatex binary. Consequently minimals can only work either with beta or with current when the two versions diverge, but not with both and beta has priority. I need to change the way the distribution works entirely, from the grounds up (I have many parts ready, but not ready to publish yet). An easy solution would be to create another mirror and only provide a working current version there. I guess they mean a stable version of MKII. I had the same experience that you had with the Introduction not showing up in the TOC. Do you know how to report a bug? You don't need to report it. I'm aware of that flaw. I could do a temporary fix, but I would prefer to fix it properly. I'm sorry that it alredy took me several years to address those issues, but I promise to fix it before the conference. Properly. You also need to keep in mind that even though it is advertized as stable, bugs won't be fixed (many project often have at least two branches of development - one for fixing the released version and one for real development; the released version should get bugfixes, but in context development that doesn't and won't happen unless some volunteer starts carefully checking the new code and only applies bugfixes to the stable version). So most people that use ConTeXt actively need bugfixes very often and the only way to get the bugs fixed is to use the latest version. Well, latest version comes with its own bugs, but at least you have a chance to get them fixed quickly.

Thank you, Wolfgang. Your table is most helpful. This can probably be found in the documentation but not where I looked. This probably relates to the recent discussion regarding manuals for novices.

[NTG-context] Table of Contents entries without page numbers
It is relatively easy to create table of contents entries without chapter
numbers, but I can't figure out how to include entries without page numbers.
I want to place a title page, 'Appendices,' in the ToC after the last
chapter and before the first appendix. I can easily create the page using
\title{Appendices} but it doesn't show up in the ToC. Using
\chapter{Appendices} creates a ToC entry with a page number and an appendix
number, which can be eliminated. There must be some way of placing headers
within a ToC.

[NTG-context] Figure not placed at margin
The following code fragment places the desired graphic at the beginning of
the chapter but indents it to the right a quarter or 3/8 of an inch. The
text (parameter #2, the chapter title) prints to the right of the figure but
sometimes extends into the right margin. Other times, it wraps down to
following lines as it should. The text begins right against the graphic (in
a blank space) as it should, but the whole thing, graphic and text, are
offset to the right rather than being aligned with the left margin. All
other figures in the document are where they are supposed to be. Any ideas?

So here is the `bug' related to this entire thread -- minimal example:
\setupindenting [medium,yes]
\setupfloats [indentnext=auto]
\starttext
\input knuth
\placefigure [here] {none} {\externalfigure [cow]}

Doesn't work, but \setupfloats [indentnext=yes]
forces knuth after the figure to be indented.

\completecontent causes two blank (except for header) to be produced before

Re: [NTG-context] chapter headers
Wolfgang, I found a spurious ] in the setuphead for the frontpart. Somehow it didn't cause a compile error but was treated as text that I didn't notice at first. Because I want the first pages of regular chapters to look different than those for the contents, introduction and index, I created a sectionblockenvironment and a setuphead for the regular chapters. Now to figure out how to keep page numbering from starting until the introduction without putting special code in that chapter.

Some time back I recall seeing a message in which someone discussed using fonts available from foundries and recommended certain ones. Unfortunately, I can't seem to find that message.

Re: [NTG-context] Embedding fonts
I don't know what you mean by look like. Unable to find documentation of an option or command to embed (likely due to my looking in the wrong documentation), I searched the message archive and found a discussion of embedding fonts with Mark-IV. This led me to believe that fonts may not automatically embedded. After receiving your response, I looked at the properties of the PDF I created and found that the fonts are indeed embedded. I also transferred my PDF to another computer and, even though the PDF includes fonts not on that computer, the proper fonts were displayed. However, in 2-up view, odd-numbered pages display on the left on the other computer where they display on the right on mine. Both systems have Adobe Reader 8.1.2. I haven't found the option to set to get the document to display properly on the other computer. My document was produced by pdfTeX-1.40.9, PDF version 1.5 and opens with Adobe Reader 8.1 or so it says. Is there a way to select a different PDF version (older) to be produced? Some printers I work with want PDFs to be produced to earlier specs.

Re: [NTG-context] \completepublications does not create index entry
That did the trick. Now I know that I have MkII. The next newbie question
is: how do I create an entry in the TOC without it being assigned an
appendix letter? After the entry for the last chapter and before the
bibliography entry, I'd like APPENDICES to display and for bibliography to
be appendix A.
Thanks,

Indeed. MkII and MkIV behave differently with \completecontent.
\usemodule[bib]
\starttext
\completecontent
\completepublications
\stoptext
Gives references in the TOC with MkIV but not with MkII.
To get references in the TOC with MkII, you can use
\chapter{References}
\placepublications[criterium=all]

[NTG-context] \hyphenation problems
When I wrap text around the right side of a figure, the justification along the right margin is a bit ragged in a couple of places. One problem is that it can't hyphenate cfbdatawarehouse.com, even when I provide the hyphenation via a \hyphenation command. The malhyphenation error seems to be caused by the embedded dot. Another line ends with last letter of the last word on the line (head) extending into the margin. That word cannot be hyphenated. How does on get the justification to work correctly in such cases?

On the whole he was a good coach and deserves praise for developing such a
fine squad out of so many raw recruits, for we must remember that only a few
of our last year's Varsity men came back this year. The school's yearbook
recorded 1917 as a 3--4 season but {\it cfbdatawarehouse.com} includes two
more games, a forfeit by Temple and a 73--0 thrashing of Millersburg, giving
Wheelock a 5--4 record for his only year as a head coach.

Re: [NTG-context] \hyphenation problems
As the Pennsylvania Dutch say, Wonderful good. The captions are now fine
except when used in combinations of two images. Then the font and spacing is
the same as for the text. The \setupcaption seems to be ignored for
combinations.

:-) Not sure if I can solve all your problems, but here are a few pointers:
1. for the url, you could use a command which provides a url that can be
hyphenated. Surprisingly enough, it is called \hyphenatedurl{}.
2. TeX doesn't hyphenate in certain situations, e.g., when a word is already
hyphenated (and apparently when it contains a period). In ConTeXt, you can
wrap these symbols into ||, and TeX will happily hyphenate (see section 7.8
of cont-eni). In your case, you can write cfbdatawarehouse|.|com
3. Your caption: well, since you do not apply the bodyfontswitch to all of
the lines, but to each line individually, you never give ConTeXt a chance to
calculate the interlinespace. You shouldn't format individual lines, but use
something like this:
\setupcaptions[style={\switchtobodyfont[9pt]},
align=center]
However, I was surprised to see that the caption was not centered below the
image, so I ended up with
\placefigure [left]
{\framed[align=middle,frame=off]{Joel Wheelock in track uniform \\
{\it Cumberland County Historical \\
Society, Carlisle, PA}}}
{\externalfigure[dummy][width=2.2 in]}
This works, but seems like a kludge. Anything better?
4. As for words sticking out in the margin: TeX does its best, but
sometimes, no good line breaks can be found. A certain word processor will
then go on and stretch your interword space and even interletter space
within words. TeX doesn't do that and will let words stick out to warn you.
If you don't want to / can't edit the text, you'll have to allow it to be
less strict. You should read about \setuptolerance in cont-eni, section
4.13.

It appears that the Nimbus Mono L font that was substituted is close enough to Courier for my purpose. The only place I use it is for a single, short telegram.

[NTG-context] Aligning text to bottom of page

[NTG-context] (no subject)
The following example computes page numbers correctly, places the correct
entries into the TOC, and produces the desired page headers on the first
pages of chapters. However, there are some things it doesn't do properly:
1. It puts headers on blank pages at the ends of chapters even after I
inserted the code that takes care of that problem.
2. It seems to ignore some commands or wait until the next chapter to
implement them. An example is the header on page vi. It's supposed to read
viContents
3. It seems that commands in the \startsectionenvironment frontmatter block
are ignored or overridden by commands that are for the body part. That is
why I have so many setup commands ib the \starttext section.

[NTG-context] Page headers drop capitals not working but pagenumbering is
The following code numbers the pages as I desired and the TOC lists those
page numbers. However, it is not doing two things as I desire and would
appreciate it if someone could indicate precisely which lines of code need
to be corrected.
In the front matter, page headers should be on the recto of the TOC (page
vi) and pages 2 and 3 of the introduction. Page headers seem to be operating
correctly in the body of the book.
\placeinitial is not creating drop capitals on the first page of each
chapter in the body of the text.
Example code follows:
%figure on left - chapter number and title on right
\def\MyChapterCommandM#1#2% #1 is number, #2 is text
{\startfiguretext[left]{none}
{\externalfigure[flowers][width=.2\textwidth]}
{\framed[frame=off,align=middle,width=broad]
{\switchtobodyfont[15pt] #1\\\blank[small] #2}}
\stopfiguretext}
%no figure on left - chapter number and title on right
\def\MyFrontMatterCommand#1#2% #1 is number, #2 is text
{\framed[frame=off,align=middle,width=broad]
{\switchtobodyfont[15pt] #1\\\blank[small] #2}}

Mojca
The wiki includes the code for a macro, \numstr, that can be used to
create
lower-case chapter numbers, but when I try to capitalize the first word,
get
error messages. For example, the following errors out:
Chapter \Word{\numstr{23}}
As does
Chapter \Words{\numstr{23}}
but
Chapter \numstr{23}
Works as does
Chapter \Words{twenty-three}
However, the former returns twenty-three (all lower case)
and the latter returns Twenty-three (only the first part is in upper case)
It's not clear from the Chicago Manual of Style if three should be
capitalized in this instance but, to my eye, it doesn't look right. Is
there
a way to convert chapter numbers to text and select the desired
capitalization?
If you want every word to be capitalized, simply change one, two, three,
etc in the source of \numstr to One, Two, Three.
Aditya
If I do that, they will always be in upper case. I would lose the option of
having them in lower case.

Re: [NTG-context] \numstr errors out in chapter star logic

\numstr seems to work fine in the body of text but errors out as if #1 was
not a number when it is used in chapter start loc. Here is an example:
[...]
\setuphead[chapter]
[command=\MyChapterCommandA] %change A to B to eliminate \substr call
Try \setuphead[chapter][deepnumbercommand=\numstr]
Wolfgang
Making the following changes resulted in ! Missing Number, treated as zero.
%\def\MyChapterCommandA#1#2% #1 is number, #2 is text
% {\numstr{#1}}
%\def\MyChapterCommandB#1#2% #1 is number, #2 is text
% {#1 #2}
\setuphead[chapter]
[deepnumbercommand=\numstr]

Re: [NTG-context] \numstr errors out in chapter star logic
\setupsection[chapter][conversion=numstring] Wolfgang This change produces the desired results on the first page of each chapter but also has some, in my case, undesired side-effects. Chapter numbers in the table of contents are now spelled out (I prefer numerals in the TOC) and section numbers in the text begin with the words rather than the numerals (again, I prefer numerals for section numbers). The documentation probably explains how to deal with this, but I haven't been able to find it. All I want to do is make a cosmetic change to the tops of the chapter start pages.

How should i know you're using mkii! Replace \setuphead with \setupsection:
\setupsection[chapter][conversion=numstring]
Wolfgang
The following example converts chapter numbers to words for the \chapter
logic but also converts chapter numbers to words in unwanted places such as
in the TOC and section numbers in the text.
\defineconversion[numstring][One,Two,Three,Four,Five,Six,Seven,Eight,Nine,Te
n,Eleven]
\setupsection[chapter]
[conversion=numstring]
\starttext
\completecontent
\dorecurse{11}{\chapter{Chapter #1}\par\section{Example section}}
\stoptext
