everybody can forget my last mail. I was crazy at that moment. anyway, it seems to be true that \postponefootnote afects text flow. I use \postponefootnote in a chapter and the next chapter text flow changes if I comment out or not \postponefootnote. There are 3 situations that affect in diferent way the text flow in the next chapter: Not to use \postponefootnote Use \postponefootnote before \bTABLE Use \postponefootnote after \bTABLE in a cell inmediatly before \footnote Is this correct?

automatic oldstyle numerals
by Alan Bowen 04 Jul '07

04 Jul '07

I am using the Termes typeface in the TeXGyre distribution and should like to have all numerals print automatically as oldstyle numerals. Is there an explanation/demonstration anywhere of how to make this happen? I have searched the wiki and the archive, but have not yet been able to make anything work. Any tips or suggestions will be much appreciated. Alan

Post-processing ConTeXt's output for text search
by Piotr Kopszak 04 Jul '07

04 Jul '07

Hello list, I would like to implement online text search of a book I'm publishing with ConTeXt now, however, without making the book itself available online, something like the snippet view in text search on Google Books site. I don't even need snippet view, just page numbers would be sufficient for the beginning. I am not asking for complete solution, of course, rather an advice on direction in which to go. May first vague idea is following: to make queries fast I think it would be useful to obtain a list of words with numbers of pages on which they appear, something very similar to plain index. So perhaps it would be possible to force indexing engine to treat every word in text as if it was an argument of \index command and split out a list in text format which it would be easy to feed into a database. This is just a blind guess which is far from perfect by design, only something that seems easiest to implement. Please, tell me what other approaches would be more promising. Thanks in advance Piotr -- Piotr Kopszak, Ph.D. Polish Art Gallery, National Museum in Warsaw -----------------------------> http://kopszak.mnw.art.pl/ http://www.magnatune.com/artists/altri_stromenti

Natural TABLE does not split with \placetable
by Saji Njarackalazhikam Hameed 04 Jul '07

04 Jul '07

Hi, I am using Natural Tables to typeset a rather long table. If I embed the table within a \placetable[][]{}{\bTABLE \eTABLE}, I cannot get the table to spread over multiple pages. The table extends over multiple pages, if I do not embed it within \placetable. Can somebody help? I am using the latest version of context ( i believe ) : texexec --version TeXExec | version 6.2.0 - 1997-2006 - PRAGMA ADE/POD saji -- Saji N.

whitespace in framedtext
by Hans van der Meer 04 Jul '07

04 Jul '07

I would like to shrink the whitespace at the top and the bottom of a framedtext. Like thus: not this but this ------------------------------ ------------------------------ | | | | | | | abcd | | abcd | | abcd | | abcd | | | | | ------------------------------ | | ------------------------------ I have tried a lot of things with [before, after, top, bottom]. Although [depthcorrection=off] shaves somewhat off the whitespace, it is not much nor am I sure if this is on the right track; and it is not parametrized. Someone knows the trick? Hans van der Meer

Powerit Holdings, Inc., The Leader in Energy-Demand Management Systems, Completes Series A Financing Round - Joe Merlo
by paul.kholer paul.kholer 03 Jul '07

03 Jul '07

Joe Merlo Powerit Holdings, Inc. the leading provider of intelligent, automated demand control & demand response systems for industrial and commercial buildings, today announced the successful completion of the company's "Series A" round of venture financing. Led by @Ventures with a $3.0 million investment, the $7.1 million round also included co-investor Expansion Capital Partners with $3.0 million and the balance from existing investors including Stellar Holdings and Company management. "This funding from @Ventures and Expansion Capital Partners, two recognized leaders in clean technology venture capital, will allow us to accelerate our growth and product offerings to meet the demands of a growing number of industrial and utility customers who need proven demand response and demand control energy management solutions to better control rising energy costs," said Claes Olsson, CEO of Powerit Holdings. Powerit Solutions is especially well-poised to support the growth of demand response services to the electric utility industry. Their primary product solution, the Energy Director, is based on the principal that the best, cleanest and most cost-efficient way to obtain needed power during times of peak usage is to leverage the hidden inefficiencies that cause high peak demand. The Energy Director system automatically predicts, regulates, and reduces demand by carefully lowering the consumption from selected loads with precisely-timed curtailment actions and manages these actions in a way that it limits any impact to productivity or building comfort. As such, it is a system that is distinctively tailored to enable industrial & commercial users to meet challenging power savings goals and has been approved for demand response (DR) incentive programs by public utilities which have strong interest in finding reliable cost-saving and demand-savvy solutions for those challenging sectors. According to Olsson, sixty percent of all energy in the domestic U.S. market is consumed by commercial and industrial buildings. "Powerit systems reduce demand charges on an ongoing basis between 10- and 40-percent and can allow those previously savings-challenged industrial manufacturing companies to participate in demand response programs," he said. "Do the math. The financial benefits, measured by dramatically reduced demand charges and the opportunity to participate in DR programs, are substantial, often creating a project payback in the range of 1 to 18 months, - not to mention the benefits to local energy utilities struggling to keep power to their customers during peak usage periods." As part of the financing, Marc Poirier, Managing Director, @Ventures and Bernardo Llovera, General Partner, Expansion Capital Partners will take seats on Powerit's Board of Directors. "Powerit's technologies are uniquely-suited to meet the demanding needs of large industrial electricity users," said Marc Poirier. "By deploying fully-automated intelligent systems to help companies reduce their energy bills without hindering productivity, Powerit delivers strong economic value to its customers. And by helping utilities manage their peak-demand periods without increasing internal capacity, Powerit helps address the increasing demand for electricity while minimizing carbon emissions and other environmental impacts associated with power generation," added Poirier. "The combination of Powerit's exceptional energy management and demand response solutions, and its proven leadership in high technology innovation, are strong indicators that the company will continue to excel," said Bernardo Llovera. "We are impressed with Claes Olsson's track record of driving growth in companies like Powerit." Evolution Capital Advisors, a boutique investment bank serving entrepreneurial stage companies in energy, information, communications, and media technology markets, served as advisor to Powerit on the transaction.
