Sorry if this is answered in a manual somewhere, but I can't seem to find it. Yes I have tried looking in ALL the docs, but can't seem to find anything that helps. I am looking to switch macro package from Latex to Context. Up until now I have used the \usepackage{palatino} to get all pdf files generated using Palatino. This has been working fine. However if I switch to Context and try \showbodyfont[ppl] I get: This is pdfeTeX, Version 3.14159-1.00b-pretest-20020211-2.1 (Web2c 7.3.7x) (… [View More]format=cont-en 2003.6.25) 26 JUN 2003 09:16 entering extended mode **&cont-en test.tex (./test.tex{c:/Local/TeX/texmf-var/pdftex/config/pdftex.cfg} ConTeXt ver: 2002.5.20 fmt: 2003.6.25 int: english mes: english language : language en is active <protectionstate 0> system : cont-new loaded (c:/Local/TeX/texmf/tex/context/base/cont-new.tex systems : beware: some patches loaded from cont-new.tex! ) system : cont-old loaded (c:/Local/TeX/texmf/tex/context/base/cont-old.tex loading : Context Old Macros ) system : cont-fil loaded (c:/Local/TeX/texmf/tex/context/base/cont-fil.tex loading : Context File Synonyms ) bodyfont : 12pt rm is loaded language : patterns 2:2-en-2 3:2-uk-2 4:2-de-2 5:2-fr-2 6:2-es-2 7:2-it-2 8:2-nl-2 loaded specials : tex,postscript,rokicki loaded \openout2 = `test.tui'. system : test.top loaded (./test.top) \openout0 = `mpgraph.mp'. \openout0 = `mprun.mp'. \openout0 = `mpgraph.mp'. \openout0 = `mprun.mp'. pdftex : needs map file: original-context-symbol.map pdftex : needs map file: pl0-ams-cmr.map pdftex : needs map file: original-vogel-symbol.map (./test.tuo) (./test.tuo) (./test.tuo) (./test.tuo) (./test.tuo) (./test.tuo) (./test.tuo) (./test.tuo) (./test.tuo) (./test.tuo) (./test.tuo) (./test.tuo) (./test.tuo) systems : begin file test at line 1 (c:/Local/TeX/texmf/tex/context/base/font-run.tex) (c:/Local/TeX/texmf/tex/context/base/type-pre.tex typescript : [serif] [palatino] [name,ec] (c:/Local/TeX/texmf/tex/context/base/type-syn.tex) (c:/Local/TeX/texmf/tex/context/base/type-enc.tex) (c:/Local/TeX/texmf/tex/context/base/type-siz.tex) (c:/Local/TeX/texmf/tex/context/base/type-map.tex) (c:/Local/TeX/texmf/tex/context/base/type-spe.tex) (c:/Local/TeX/texmf/tex/context/base/type-exa.tex) typescript : [serif] [default] [size] (c:/Local/TeX/texmf/tex/context/base/type-syn.tex) (c:/Local/TeX/texmf/tex/context/base/type-enc.tex) (c:/Local/TeX/texmf/tex/context/base/type-siz.tex) (c:/Local/TeX/texmf/tex/context/base/type-map.tex) (c:/Local/TeX/texmf/tex/context/base/type-spe.tex) (c:/Local/TeX/texmf/tex/context/base/type-exa.tex) typescript : [map] [ec] [] (c:/Local/TeX/texmf/tex/context/base/type-syn.tex) (c:/Local/TeX/texmf/tex/context/base/type-enc.tex) (c:/Local/TeX/texmf/tex/context/base/type-siz.tex) (c:/Local/TeX/texmf/tex/context/base/type-map.tex pdftex : needs map file: original-ams-cmr.map pdftex : needs map file: original-ams-euler.map pdftex : needs map file: ec-adobe-utopia.map pdftex : needs map file: ec-bit-charter.map pdftex : needs map file: ec-public-antp.map pdftex : needs map file: ec-public-antt.map pdftex : needs map file: ec-urw-bookman.map pdftex : needs map file: ec-urw-courier.map pdftex : needs map file: ec-urw-helvetica.map pdftex : needs map file: ec-urw-palatino.map pdftex : needs map file: ec-urw-times.map pdftex : needs map file: ec-urw-zapfchan.map pdftex : needs map file: original-youngryu-px.map pdftex : needs map file: original-youngryu-tx.map pdftex : needs map file: ec-bh-lucida.map ) (c:/Local/TeX/texmf/tex/context/base/type-spe.tex) (c:/Local/TeX/texmf/tex/context/base/type-exa.tex)) !

Figures flowing past end of section.
by Maarten Sneep 25 Jun '03

25 Jun '03

Hi, Subject say some, let me elaborate to make myself perfectly clear. I have a few figures at the end of a section, right before the start of the next section. The figures however end up in the wrong location. I've seen various permutations of the following: figures are placed in a location where they don't fit (with the figure starting below the lower margin and only 50% fitting on the page) and an empty page-end, followed by the section title, followed by one figure below the title, … [View More]

Table of Contents
by John Culleton 20 Jun '03

20 Jun '03

I want to typeset a book with chapters and sections, but with no numbering, either on the chapter heading itself or in the TOC. I do want both chapters and sections in the TOC. I prefer the dotleader layout (alternative=c). I have spent two days now chasing down blind alleys. What is the shortest way to achieve this goal? -- John Culleton Able Typesetters and Indexers

"Text flows" under columnsets
by Erik George Hetzner 20 Jun '03

20 Jun '03

Hello ConTeXters, First, I'd like to thank Hans, belatedly, for the columns.pdf manual which I have been happily using. Column sets are one of the main reasons that I have enjoyed working with ConTeXt so much, and having a manual makes them much, much easier to figure out. Second, I would like to ask if "text flows", which are introduced in the manual, are implemented at all. When I attempt to use the examples, ConTeXt complains about the macros not being defined. Searching through the … [View More]

\setupwhitespace[small]
by Nigel King 19 Jun '03

19 Jun '03

Dear ConTeXtnicians I am trying to track down something which causes \setupwhitespace not to work as expected in my document. Minimal documents work correctly but my complex handbook document has been affected. What other commands might cause \setupwhitespace to malfunction. \setupwhitespace[small] does not appear to work. It seems to give the same result as medium. none gives none, 3pt does not give 3pt but instead prints 3pt as though it was text, big does give slightly bigger than medium … [View More]

Conversion LaTeX -> ConTeXt
by Frank Sonnemans 18 Jun '03

18 Jun '03

Hello there, I am starting to move away from LaTeX to ConTeXt and was wondering if some ConTeXt users have written scripts to convert LaTeX documents to ConTeXt documents. Or perhaps just partial conversions, for example from a LaTeX tabular environment to a ConTeXt table. Also I would be interested in layout definitions which could replace the LaTeX article and NTG brief layout, as a starting point for further customization. Best Regards, Frank Sonnemans

\setupbodyfont[pos] on Mac OSX ---> tfm file not found?
by maillist＠sonnemans.net 18 Jun '03

18 Jun '03

Does anyone have a working TeX installation on OSX where the \setupbodyfont[pos] command works? I cannot get it to work, I tried installating the fonts manually using the texfont command which did not work. I also tried \usetypescript[berry][8a] and other commands wich were mentioned in the maillist archive, but to no avail. I have the impression problems are caused by Context wanting EC encoded files which were dropped from the teTeX distribution some time ago. As I am no font expert I … [View More]would appreciate some help.
