Re: [NTG-context] Standalone Installation Question

[NTG-context] bug or needs warning documentation
I found what I consider a bug in startcombination processing.
context version used: version: 2013.09.03 16:23
Examples: 1.) Good compilable source and 2.) source that fails
The bad thing about this is that one, at least checks and checks syntax for
errors and the error in fact is simply a blank line, which doesn't stand out as
a syntax error in my mind, expecially when white space is supposed to be
ignored by tex/context in usual modes.
Has this been noticed before?
The below works successfully
\starttext
\placefigure
[here,none]
[fig: reference tag]
{citation text}
{ \startcombination[1*2]

[NTG-context] [***SPAM***] Simple Context Application to Cards
This is a trivial appliation for Context, but a useful one.
I plan on designed some business cards, but am new to Context.
My idea to to have a logo image in the upper left hand corner, with the company
name to the right of it. This would be two block elements at the top of the
card.
In the middle will be the name, and below that the address, tel, etc.
-- Regarding the two blocks at the top of the card:
Something like the below:
logo here Company name here
.--.
| |
| o XYZ Printing Company |
| o |This top area is the subject of
this mail.
| oCard Design Services|
.
| |
| |
|First_Name Last_Name | All this below the ... line is
done.
| |
| contact information|
| |
'--'
I take this as two blocks aligned horizontally on the 91mm x 55mm card stock.
From my reading the Context options for doing this are:
The margins are so small that using
\inmarge{\externalfigure[company-logo][width=\marginwidth] } can not work.
Which option should I pursue?
a.) \startcombination ... \externalfigure + text block \stopcombination
a.) \placefigurehere[... force]
\startcombination ... \externalfigure + text block \stopcombination
c.) \startfiguretext ... \stopfiguretext
d.) some other Context mechanism.
Any advice is appreciated.
Thanks

The solution you provided works well. Much appreciated.

%\sym{on} This causes an error.
%\sym{$\diamond$} This causes an error.
%\sym{$\diamondsuit$} This causes an error.

What happened to \hskip and \sym ? Or what am I doing wrong?
One further question. I tried nopping \before, \after, \between, and the none,
and joinedup option but could not suppress white space occurring after
\startitemize and the 1st \item. I tried looking in the garden as well, but had
no luck. I believe th
e information is in there but I couldn't find it after a hour or so. So
please inform me as to how can tell ConTeXt how much space, including none, to
place between the an item header (or none) and the list???
I'd appreciate the assistance in learning who to do this.

[NTG-context] [***SPAM***] Re: Asian Language Support
Yusuke-san, Thank you too for writing. It seems like one or the other so far, platex does not give good western style characters but is great for Japanese, which the other option, simplefonts gives good western characters and according to you bad Japanese charac ters. Is it the font or the spacing that is bad in simplefont? So a question might be can ptex be used with ConTeXt? as the the engine? Would this wowrk? ___ 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 : http://foundry.supelec.fr/projects/contextrev/ wiki : http://contextgarden.net ___
