Font switching in XeTeX
by Mojca Miklavec 06 May '06

06 May '06

Hello Hans and Adam, Which are the high-level font switching commands for XeTeX? Documentation in font-ini states that something like \definedfont["cmtt10" at 40pt] should work, but if I try to play with \definedfont["Latin Modern Roman" at 40pt] I get the message that TFM files for "Latin Modern Roman" do not exist. \font\A="Latin Modern Roman" at 40pt works OK. I have some problems with the default Type1 lmr font - it doesn't know that there are any "ccarons" present in the font (with OpenType lmr it works OK), but I have to inspect that a bit anyway. There should be a way to "preload" the lm fonts so that they would work OK with diacritical marks. Mojca

Hi, I've just created a page for the new release (04/27), http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Context_2006.04.27 but I a bit hesitant to announce it formally. I suspect that the changes in kpse.rb/kpsefast.rb break on Mac OS X. Cheers, Taco

Hi Hans, I've created http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Context_2006.04.22 but not all of it makes sense to me, this time. (I've ordered "programming ruby" so hopefully I'll start understanding it better soon) Cheers, taco

Updated modules at contextgarden
by Taco Hoekwater 05 Apr '06

05 Apr '06

Hi all, I think I have succeeded in uploading new versions of my modules to contextgarden (thanks to Patrick for the input form and Hans for the distribution/tpm builder). http://modules.contextgarden.net/t-lettrine http://modules.contextgarden.net/bib http://modules.contextgarden.net/urwgothic For that last one I have a question for Patrick: I changed the filename in the edit form (from urwgothic-support to f-urwgothic). That did not change the existing files, just the links, so those became invalid. I expected that, so I added a new release and re-uploaded my zipfile. That worked fine, the new version now has the right filename (cool!). But it also means that there is now a set of "orphan files" on http://dl.contextgarden.net, and I do not know how you want to handle that? We also have serious duplication of information now: the info in the tpm file duplicates the info in modules interface + filesystem. It would perhaps make more sense if one or the other was auto-generated? Cheers, Taco

Hi, I am currently working on a new modules section on contextgarden. I might finish it tomorrow. Edit and upload will be possible then. And I'll answer some mails tomorrow (many to go...) Patrick -- ConTeXt wiki and more: http://contextgarden.net

modules setup

Hi all developers, FYI, here is the new t-lettrine.zip, and the tpm.dtd (from texlive). The zip has the structure we discussed over the past few days (I think so, at least). The sizes in the embedded tpm file are estimated, and just a tad higher than the actual sizes.

latest beta (tests needed)
by Taco Hoekwater 03 Apr '06

Hi, Hans, you are almost there, afaik. A few notes still: * The new bibliography module. It would be more comfortable if the t-bib was in tex/context/bib like before. It is now in tex/context/third, like in my zipfile, but that is searched later, so I now had to delete the old one manually. And if you want to promote it to core status anyway ... * A small fix to verbatim (color) * The improved version of math substacks. (looks fine) * The xtag-mml patch. * The \dodoregister patch. Duncan, can you check if these last two items are ok now? Taco

It is an RDF syntax that should do all we need already. There even is a filled one for context (TL2005): http://www.tug.org/texlive/devsrc/Master/texmf-dist/tpm/context.tpm Taco
