Hello,
I need two more twiks for my footnotes:

My font is too slanted and the asterisk (*) is printed too close to the

How do I instruct context to give me some room between the V and the asterisk?

you need to set up bodyfont environments for that (see font manual); the

hm, what do other german users experience/think?
(BTW I've already produced all expanded version with fontinst)
wait for the new pdftex (or grab a test versions soemwhere): it has auto
expansion included, and there i sno need any more to create the
instances yourself (doen within pdftex)!
If ConTeXt is using the new german spelling hyphenation rules then:
*108* If ss stands for , then it will be hyphenated s-s. E.g., Grs-se
(instead of Gr-e), heis-sen (instead of hei-en).
*109* The connection of consonants ch, ck, and sch, and also in foreign
words with ph, rh, sh, and th will not be hyphenated in between if they
stands for a single sound. E.g., B-cher, Zu-cker, ba-cken, Fla-sche,
Ma-che-te, Pro-phet, Myr-rhe, Ca-shew-nuss, ka-tho-lisch.
so .. what are the proposed changes to the german language specifics in enco-fde.tex?

Hi,
I'm recently trying to get ConTeXt typesetting my books like with LaTeX
before (or better). But I can't solve some problems ... Maybe someone can
assist me?
o How do I get the chapter number into the heading? I've tried
\setupheader[before=\viii,style=normal]
\setupheadertexts[chapter]
but this only puts the chapter title into the heading
\setupheadertexts[chapter][chapternumber]
of
\setupheadertexts[{\getmarking[chapternumber] -- \getmarking[chapter]}]
etc etc
o How can I get something similar to LaTeX?
\fancyhead[C]{%
{\sffamily\footnotesize
\leftmark
\pdef\next{\rightmark}%
\ifx\next\empty\else\ \textbullet\ \rightmark\fi}%
}
which will put the chapter mark centered in the headings, and if there is
a
sectionmark then a bullet sectionmark too.
something like: (setups are just a convenience)
\setupheadertexts [\setups{something}]
\startsetups something
\getmarking[chapter]
\doiftext{\getmarking[section]}{\enspace\symbol[1]\enspace}
\getmarking[section]
\stopsetups
o How can I typeset the chapter title across both columns in a two-column
setup?
hm
\chapter{xxx}
\startcolumns ... \stopcolumns
\chapter{yyy}
etc
o How can I tell ConTeXt the distance between columns? Or should I define
only the columnwidth? How? My first defintion looks like
\setuplayout[width=358dd,lines=46,topspace=11mm,backspace=17mm,
\setupcolumns[distance=123pt]
margin=0cm,marking=on,location=middle,grid=yes,header=12bp,
headerdistance=18bp,footer=12bp,footerdistance=11mm]
o How can I tell ConTeXt to balance the last page? I've tried something
like
\definecolumnset[two][n=2,tolerance=tolerant,distance=12bp]
\setupcolumnset [two][balance=yes]
but this doesn't work.
ah, column sets ... see an earlier mail
o Is it possible to setup a project using only didot (or bp) point
measurements? How?
Especially I want a interline space in dd or bp which is flexible like
\setupinterlinespace[line=1.25\bodyfontsize] but uses dd or bp.
\starttext
\input ward
\setupinterlinespace[line=4.25\dimexpr(\bodyfontfactor dd)]
\input ward
\stoptext
o I've tried to setup the typographical correct quotation marks for german
in the file cont-sys.tex
\setuplanguage
[de]
[leftquote=\rightsubguillemot,
leftquotation=\rightguillemot,
rightquote=\leftsubguillemot,
rightquotation=\leftguillemot]
When using it, e.g.,
\quotation{all right \quote{there} we go}
and using
\showstruts
I got marks at strange places
|all right |there| we go|
Should this be corrected somewhere?
dunny, can you make a small test file (so that other german users can
test along?)
o How do I get character protruding and font expansion? (I didn't find the
latter in the manual)
\starttext
\setuppapersize[A4][A4]
\setuplayout[height=middle,topspace=1cm,header=0pt,footer=0pt]

so, associate a handling (see hand-* files) with a font (before it's
used! else pdftex does ignore it)
but ... be prepared ... context is set up for the latest pdftex and
there are some bugs in hz an desp when used with protruding (thanh is
working on them and the previous code is used for testing)
you need a recent context in order to get the auto expansion done
o Does there exist some support for RCS? In LaTeX I've used
\RequirePackage[nofancy]{rcsinfo}
and then I put in the page area of the crop marks:
on top
'Art \ Satz \raise.5pt\hbox{\textbullet} Ulrich Dirr\hfill Seite
\thepage \the\count1\ von \numpages'
and on bottom
project specific info\hfill \rcsInfoFile\ Rev.\rcsInfoRevision\hfill
\the\day.\the\month.\the\year\ \printtime
How can I put these information on the page? Should I use something you
called 'Logo types' in the manual or something like layers?
if you can give me specs (and an example) of what you need .. probably
trivial to write
(there is some info mechanism where i then can hook it into)

Re: [NTG-context] Re: How to use PostScript font
Hi Patrick, Yes, but what is the problem? We are not talking about other fonts, just the ones preinstalled by psnfss. We know ervery bit of those fonts, so no need to reflect the spacing etc. in the filename, since e.g. phvr8t will always have the same characteristics thougout all distributions. that's fine for those who use ec fonts, but i happen not to use them (we started using texnansi a long time ago; i'm not even sure if ec was around that time, and i definitely didn't have access to metrics then) say that i want to mix polish and german (using qx and ec encoding) in one doc, i want similar spacing etc, don't i? Right, but qx isn't supplied by psnfss anyway, is it? So you'd have to make your own font; but I still can't see the drawback in using those fonts for 99% of [texts covered by ec encoding]. I can agree on well, (other thread), this is why we need an encoding with 'as many characters as possible' which means, no funny characters like copyright and registered and such (which spoils slots) -) don't mix fontinst installed fonts with afm2... installed fonts when you need same em width (and alike). But for most texts I bet that this is not an issue. probably, so, i have no problems with everyone except me using ec and psnfss fonts; and indeed i don't want to mix systems (most of the documents i process here use commercial fonts and for those i depend on my own font hackery; it simply does not pay off to spent much time on figuring out fontinst for that, apart from the fact that i lost track of font names long ago -) Absolutely. The choose the adobe metrics from psnfss, but as I am told the URW metrics have somewhat questionable kerning data. And using URW metrics with Adobe fonts will break on glyphs that are in URW but not Adobe. right, and that's why i use the urw metrics with urw files (i always embed those files, since i don't want operating systems/acrobat/printers to swap in their own substitutes and clones); when i use for instance palatino from adobe or linotype, I just generate new metric files. That is really good. Let me see what I can do with respect to psnfss/texnansi... ok; btw, also take a look at sieps afm2pl since it has some other nice features Hans - Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | fax: 038 477 53 74 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl - ___ ntg-context mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context

I don't know.
probably not, i once did a project where graphics came from all kind of
organizations, we ended up with (looking in the final pdf file) quite
some different lucida clones; the file was a font mess anyway so nobody
noticed i guess; the same may happen with times and helvetica
as long as the metrics/kerning match the shapes i guess you're safe; on
the other hand, i don't trust those fonts to remain unchanged, so i use
the official lucida's
So, copy the attached file (warning: very experimental!!!) to your
directory and try to use it with:
\usetypescriptfile[type-lso]
\definetypeface [lso][rm][serif][lbso] [default][encoding=ec]
\definetypeface [lso][ss][sans] [lsso] [default][encoding=ec]
\definetypeface [lso][tt][mono] [lctso][default][encoding=ec]
\setupbodyfont[lso,12pt]

\showbodyfont
\type{The quick brown fox jumps over the 1234567890 lazy dog!}
\switchtobodyfont [ss]
The quick brown fox jumps over the 1234567890 lazy dog!
\stoptext
alternatively you can add to your type-loc.tex:
\starttypescript [serif] [lucida] [ec]
\definefontsynonym[LucidaBright] [...] [encoding=ec]
\stoptypescript
in which case you can probably use the existing lbr definition

\starttext
We can easily use plain English for normal text, and then switch
to greek when we want; as a first try we type the lower and
upper case 26 letters of the latin alphabet and see how they come
out in greek:
\startgreek
a b c d e f g h i j k l m n o p q r s t u v w x y z \par
A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z
\stopgreek
As it can be observed, some uppercase letters have strange
outcomes; also, j gives \greek{j} and c gives the
end-of-word sigma \greek{c}; interestingly, s gives either the
normal sigma or the end-of-word one, depending on whether it's at
the end of the word or not: \greek{satrapws}.
Of course we can use the various diacritical signs: accents
(\greek{`a, 'a, ~a}), breathings (\greek{r, w, a}) and
subscribed iotas (\greek{a|, h|, w|}) (these last are pretty ugly in my
opinion); observe how they automatically get the correct position
with uppercase letters: (\greek{`A, 'A, ~A, A, A, A|}).
Can the thing be used for serious work?

no tables of contents ( or bookmarks).
I'm in the process of composing a minimal example file, but it's tough
going and I wondered if anyone could point me in the right direction
from the information in the error message.
I'd be really grateful! (Impossible deadlines approach...)
in cont-new (or cont-sys) you can say:

This 'test' was added in order to determine of tex runs in 8 bit mode. I wonder where the Malformed message comes from. Since when is perl utf-8 by default?

[NTG-context] patterns
Hi,
The last few years we have encountered problems with changes in pattern
files and names (dutch was dropped, czech was invalid, and us filenames
also changed in undocumented ways). To get a bit more control over this
can of worms, we need a test file that can be added to the tex live test
suite.
So, what i need is for each language a couple of words that hyphenate in
unique ways (i.e. they must hyphenate differently than related languages)
\language[xx] \hyphenatedword{..}
can be used to test

[for forwarding to the list]
Dear fellowship,
Using eomega/Aleph, turning on an ocplist will cut off any other font in its
scope, like pagenumbering. But we have solutions/workarounds:
\setuppagenumbering[command={\clearocplists}]
\def\MYhigh#1{\high{\clearocplists#1}}
\setupfootnotes[numbercommand={\MYhigh}]
or I can actually switch fonts:
\setuppagenumbering[command={\clearocplists\switchtobodyfont[myfont]\myocplist
}]
\def\MYhigh#1{\high{\clearocplists\switchtobodyfont[myfont]\myocplist#1}}
\setupfootnotes[numbercommand={\MYhigh}]
Now I need something similar for the printmarks, because when I temporarily
switch from a global left-to-right document to a global right-to-left document
with activated ocplists, the page numbers in the crop marks (predictably)
disappear. I need some key that allows me to \clearocplists when the crop-mark
page numbers are read by ConTeXt.
Thnx in advance

Re: [NTG-context] side figure and typing
[EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:
Hi all !
let us imagine we have defined the following command:
\def\SideFigure#1#2#3#4#5%
{
\placefigure[#1]{#2}{\externalfigure[#3][width=#4\makeupwidth]}
#5
}
which can be used to put a figure aside a companion text...
but, what happens if the text is to be typed... ??
I guess this won't work:
\SideFigure{right}{pack2}{../figures/tcltk/pack2.jpg}{0.25}
{
\starttyping
pack .ok .cancel .help -side top
\stoptyping
}
How can I make it to work?
hm, you could just omit #5 and it would probably work
otherwise you would need to do do a multi step like:
\def\XXX#1#2#3#4%
{\begingroup
\obeylines\doXXX{#1}{#2}{#3}{#4}}
\long\def\doXXX#1#2#3#4#5%
{\place[]{}{}\scantokens{#5}}
or so (untested and probably not correct)

Re: [NTG-context] continuous numbering over components?

For one of the products I want to achieve a continuous numbering (as I get when `texexec`ing the product file) but I want a single pdf per component. I expect that there is an elegant solution, but didn't find it yet. So any hint is appreciated. technically, if you have run the whole file, you can run a component \setuphead[chapter][incrementnumber=mainfilename] should pick up numbers from the file; can you test that? i can extend that with setting the page number as well; another option is to use texexec --pdfselect (this can be automated, by picking up numbers from the tuo file; remind me in a few weeks) Hans - Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | fax: 038 477 53 74 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl - ___ ntg-context mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context
Re: [NTG-context] textbackground
dr. Hans van der Meer wrote: Hans, I definitely see problems with the \starttextbackground[]-\stoptextbackground environment (discussed in the displays-brochure). When the textbackground falls at a page crossing -- i.e. starts at the top of a page -- the coloring extends backwards on the page just left. It can be remedied by putting a \null just in front of \starttextbackground. The extra vertical space this introduces just manages to constrain the background to its own page. However, this is not a general solution, on other places the extra vertical space is certainly not wanted. I cannot find the exact nature of the problem. I suspect it has to do with the \output-routines, but these are not my speciality, to say the least. So, not much help there, Also, the \starttextbackground does not respect footnotes, these are colored. In contrast, the old \startbackground-\stopbackground does respect footnotes. The coloring stops at the footnote and restarts at the next page. I should like that for \starttextbackground as well. can you make me a minimal example of where things go wrong (keep in mind that there are two methods, tex and paragraph) with respect to footnotes, maybe i can make that an option (there are more exceptions) Hans - Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | fax: 038 477 53 74 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl - ___ ntg-context mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context
