Hi, sorry, the previous mail was for the ntg board, a request for sponsoring; anyway, it does not hurt to know of sponsoring needs -) for those who use tex commercially, at the tug page you can find a form for sponsoring tex activities -) Hans

[Fwd: proposal for lua team member at tug07; luatex support]
by Hans Hagen 16 Mar '07

16 Mar '07

Hoi, Hier is een verzoek van Karl Berry voor sponsoring van de Luatex auteur naar tug 2007. De reden dat aan dante relatief weinig wordt gevraagd is dat Dante is dat zij al Martin en Thanh (lid van pdftex team) sponsoren om naar tug 2007 en eurotex te gaan (deels uit de project, deels uit een gift).

Umlaut causes footnotline to jump
by Steffen Wolfrum 15 Mar '07

15 Mar '07

Hi, again, unfortunately close to the printing, we have found an insoluble ugly detail in the footnotes. There is a very strange thing with german umlaut (actually it took me 2 hours to see this point). Have a look at the example below: When you change the \"O to O the interlinespace snaps back to its correct value. But \"O (or Ü the same) does not always distort the interlinespace. It's just sometimes (and to me unpredictably...). As it is a quite striking feature it needs to be corrected -- but how?? \usetypescript[postscript][\defaultencoding] \setupencoding[default=texnansi] \mainlanguage[de] \enableregime[mac] \setupbodyfont[postscript,10pt] \setupinterlinespace[line=12pt] \definepapersize[MyPage][width=15.7cm,height=23.2cm] \setuppapersize[MyPage][A4] \setuplayout [width=113mm,height=576pt, backspace=20mm,topspace=15mm, header=12pt,headerdistance=6pt, footer=42pt,footerdistance=0pt, location=middle,marking=on,grid=no] \def\setnotebodyfont {\let\setnotebodyfont\relax \restoreglobalbodyfont \switchtobodyfont[rm,9pt]\setupinterlinespace[line=9.8pt]\parskip2pt} \starttext Test.\footnote{{\em R.~Schmidt}, Öff.

grid and \definelayout
by Wolfgang Schuster 15 Mar '07

15 Mar '07

Hi, I tried to enable the grid with the \definelayout command. This seems to be not possible and can only be done with the \setuplayout command. The reason is that I set up the layout in one of my modules with a own setup command and the current setup option is choosen by a keyword, e.g. \setupmymodule[firstpage][..,..=..,..] creates \definelayout[firstpage] with the comma seperated list between the second brackets. Is it there something build in that im unable to find and if not is it possible to include this, because I try to avoid adding another option that is neccessary to enable/disable the grid. Wolfgang

How to include unicode characters in a comment?
by Zhichu Chen 15 Mar '07

15 Mar '07

Hi When I'm using ======================= \setupinteraction [state=start] \enableregime [utf] \usemodule [chi-00] \starttext \startcomment[中文] 中文 \stopcomment 中文 \stoptext ======================= and use Adobe Reader v7 to view the output file. The comment only shows lookaheaduchar{78}{45} and something like that. I hope someone can give me a hand. Thanks. By the way, can I change the icon of the comment? It's too large for me. -- Sincerely yours, Chen ---------------------------------------------------------------- Zhi-chu Chen | Shanghai Synchrotron Radiation Facility No. 2019 | Jialuo Rd. | Jiading | Shanghai | P.R.

index questions - again
by Thomas A. Schmitz 14 Mar '07

14 Mar '07

Hi, I'm sorry, this is the third time I'm asking this question, but I haven't been able to solve this, and the book is going to the publisher next month, so it's kind of urgent (I will sulk in Epen if this doesn't work :-) 1. I need to define a special type of register that will typeset page ranges in bold. I have a subindex that does that for single entries: \setupregister[index][imp][pagestyle=bold] which I invoke like \index[imp::]{modernity} and it works. How can I have the same thing for ranges? 2. Another index question: I have several seeindex entries. They work, but the publisher doesn't want a linebreak, and they want "see" in italics. SO instead of lisible see readerly they want lisible *see* readerly Can this be configured, or can I hack core-reg.tex (and how?). Best, and thanks Thomas
