[NTG-context] strange effect of columns?
hello all I'm using a layout which enables placement on a grid. I have on a page first a figuretext then a columns environment. When I look at the pdf I see clearly (the grid is on) that there are still 13 void lines between the end of the columns and the end of the text area but I can't put anything there and it works as if there were a \page[yes] (which is NOT there, definitely). Just in case, here is the beginning of the log file from the log This is pdfTeXk, Version 3.141592-1.40.3 (Web2C 7.5.6) (format=cont-en 2007.5.8) 3 MAY 2008 19:30 entering extended mode %-line parsing enabled.

[NTG-context] many columns and then one column on the same page
hello all I've failed to find how I could put first some text in two columns and then other text in one column on the same page. After \stopcolumnsep my text goes on a new page.

Re: [NTG-context] many columns and then one column on the same page
Le samedi 12 janvier 2008, Yvon Henel wrote too quickly! I've failed to find how I could put first some text in two columns and then other text in one column on the same page. After \stopcolumnsep my text goes on a new page. And, after having wrote, began to think and look at the manuals with renewed attention! The answer is: use \startcolumns \stopcolumns. And I say to myself: RTFM, RTFM,... sorry for the noise :-( -- Yvon Henel signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part. ___ 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 : https://foundry.supelec.fr/projects/contextrev/ wiki : http://contextgarden.net ___
[NTG-context] is it possible to produce PDF with version 1.3
hello all the pdf I've produced declares to be PDF v1.5 which seems to be unreadable if the acrobat version is not 8 Is it possible to demand an older version of PDF for the result of a compilation with texexec or does it depend on the ConTeXt features used? As always, any hint would be greatly appreciated. -- Yvon Henel signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part. ___ 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 : https://foundry.supelec.fr/projects/contextrev/ wiki : http://contextgarden.net ___
[NTG-context] to obtain glyphs in marvosym.pfb
hello all
summary of previous episodes
I begin to be able to use utopia-expert fonts thanks to the fourier tricks
located in the different type-*.enc.
My previous work with TeXfont has not been entirely useless for it has helped
me to understand what I needed to use the available material which gives
access to utopia-expert.
I would seize the opportunity to thank all the people who made available the
howtos on ConTeXt, the wiki and so on. And also those who answered my first
questions on this list, even if I choose not to follow all their
recommendations ;-) To say the truth I've already devoted the last three days
in learning how to use ConTeXt and cannot envisage to swap to LuaTeX before
some time.
/summary of previous episodes
But alas I've got a new problem which I state hereafter:
I've tried this:
\definesymbol [Telefon][\getglyph{umvs}{\char84}]
because umvs.tfm is in the marvosym directory
but it doesn't work.
I've also tried marvosym (because there is a marvosym.pfb) instead of umvs but
to no avail.
I've succeeded nonetheless in obtaining the glyphs of fourier-orns with
\definefontsynonym [Fourier-Ornements] [fourier-orns] [encoding=ec]
\definesymbol [lefthand][\getglyph{Fourier-Ornements}{\char116}]
Is it because I need to load a map or something?
Any hint would be greatly appreciated
Many thanks to all

[NTG-context] How to use utopia font?
hello all, I'm new with ConTeXt even if I know some TeX and LaTeX already. Here is my question: I would like to use utopia (with expert fonts) as my default rm. I've got all the files required for a LaTeX usage (with fourier.sty) and it works ok. I have found some fourier.map and fourier-utopia-expert.map in my TeXlive under /texmf-dist/fonts/map/dvipdfm/context and /texmf-dist/fonts/map/fourier/. I've tried what I've understood of the manuals but I can't figure out how to call correctly the font. Any hint will be appreciated.

Le mercredi 2 janvier 2008, Saji N. Hameed a écrit : Hi Yvon, This may work: \usetypescript[berry][ec] \definetypeface[utopia][rm][serif][utopia][default][encoding=ec] \setupbodyfont[utopia,12pt] The above is based on instructions found @ http://watershade.net/wmcclain/context-help.html saji Thanks a lot. It does work! I think I erred in the use of \setupbodyfont when I first tried according to (so I thought then!) the instructions given at the site you mention.

[NTG-context] nested tables?
Hello again,
I would like to nest a table inside a table, something like this:
\starttable[|c|c|]
\NC {\bf ATout Choeur} \NC
{\starttable[|c|]
\NC Number 2008--1\FR
\NC january 2008\LR
\stoptable}\MR
\NC {\tfa Something} \NC \LR
\stoptable
but 1/ I would like the top of the first cell of the first row to be aligned
with the top of the second one (which contains the nested table);
2/ it seems that it does not work when the layout is set up
with grid=yes
If the answer to the second question is Effectively, it can't work in such a
layout, what could be a way of obtaining what I want?
As always, any hint would be greatly appreciated
Many thanks to all
