by Bill Long 12 Mar '09

Dear All, anybody can help me on this problem? As most of the ppt file's background are graphics, but I don't know how to do it by modify the sytelefile. for example bellow style: --------------------------------------------- %D \module %D [ file=t-horizontalblue, %D version=2007.07.17, %D title=\CONTEXT\ Style File, %D subtitle=Presentation Module horizontalblue, %D author=Thomas A. Schmitz, %D date=\currentdate, %D copyright={Thomas A. Schmitz}] %C %C Copyright 2007 Thomas A. Schmitz. %C This file may be distributed under the GNU General Public License v. 2.0. %D This file provides the \quotation{horizontalblue} style for the presentation %D module. It is loaded at runtime. The look of this style was inspired by the %D \quotation{Copenhagen} theme of the \LaTeX\ {\tt beamer} package. \writestatus{loading}{module newstyle} \startmodule[newstyle] \unprotect %D The taspresentation module provides a skeleton into which different styles %D can be hooked. It uses a number of variables and macros which have to be set %D beforehand. Some parts are optional. We begin with the necessary definitions: %D We start colors: \setupcolors[state=start] %D These macros are used for placing figures/pictures: \define\NormalHeight{.97\textheight} \define\NormalWidth{.476\textwidth} \define\PictureFrameHeight{.97\textheight} \define\PictureFrameWidth{.476\textwidth} %D The page layout: \setuplayout [width=fit, margin=0cm, height=14.7cm, header=1.75cm, footer=1.2cm, topspace=1cm, backspace=1cm, location=singlesided] %D The macro for typesetting the Slidetitle; this is adapted from a sample %D document that Brooks Moses published on the wiki: \definelayer[slidetitle] [width=\paperwidth, height=\paperheight, x=10mm] \define[1]\Slidetitle{\page\setlayer[slidetitle]% {\framed[frame=off,width=\textwidth,height=2.2cm,offset=0pt,top=\vss,bottom=\vss]{\switchtobodyfont[\Titlesize]\color[c]{#1}}}} %D The macro \tex{Maketitle} produces a default title page with the author, the %D title of the presentation, and the date. Using it is not mandatory. \define\Maketitle{% \titback \null \vfill \framed[frame=off,width=\textwidth,height=.75\textheight,top=\vss,bottom=\vss,align=middle]{\switchtobodyfont[\Titlesize]\color[c]{\bf \getvariable{taspresent}{title}}\switchtobodyfont[\Normalsize]\blank[line]\getvariable{taspresent}{author}\blank[2*line]\currentdate} \vfill \null} %D The following parts are optional; if you don't use backgrounds and are %D content with CONTEXT's default itemization, you don't have to set these %D macros. %D We define our colors: \definecolor [a] [s=.95] \definecolor [b] [r=.58,g=.58,b=.82] \definecolor [c] [r=.2,g=.2,b=.73] \definecolor [Item] [r=.2,g=.2,b=.73] %D We let Metapost calculate the background: \startuniqueMPgraphic{vertical} StartPage ; pair zd[] ; path pb[] ; fill Page withcolor \MPcolor{a} ; z.d1 = ulcorner Page shifted (0,-5pt) ; z.d2 = urcorner Page shifted (0,-5pt) ; pb[1] = ulcorner Page -- z.d1 -- z.d2 -- urcorner Page -- cycle ; z.d3 = llcorner Page shifted (0,5pt) ; z.d4 = lrcorner Page shifted (0,5pt) ; pb[3] = llcorner Page -- z.d3 -- z.d4 -- lrcorner Page -- cycle ; pb[4] = pb[3] shifted (0,.75cm) ; fill pb[1] withcolor \MPcolor{b} ; fill pb[3] withcolor \MPcolor{b} ; fill pb[4] withcolor \MPcolor{b} ; StopPage ; \stopuniqueMPgraphic \startuniqueMPgraphic{horizontal} StartPage ; pair zd[] ; path pb[] ; z.d1 = ulcorner Page shifted (0,-5pt) ; z.d2 = urcorner Page shifted (0,-5pt) ; pb[1] = ulcorner Page -- z.d1 -- z.d2 -- urcorner Page -- cycle ; pb[2] = pb[1] shifted (0,-2cm) ; fill pb[2] withcolor \MPcolor{b} ; StopPage ; \stopuniqueMPgraphic %D We define these backgrounds as overlays: \defineoverlay [lecbackground] [\useMPgraphic{horizontal}] \defineoverlay [picbackground] [\useMPgraphic{vertical}] %D We define the footer \setupfooter[color=c,style={\switchtobodyfont[10pt]},strut=yes] \setupfootertexts[{\framed[frame=off,height=.45cm,width=\textwidth]{\getvariable{taspresent}{title}\hfill \pagenumber \ of \lastpage}}] %D These are shortcuts to switch backgrounds: \define\lecback{\setuplayout[header=1.75cm]\setupfooter[state=start]\setupbackgrounds[page][background={picbackground,lecbackground,slidetitle}]} \define\titback{\setuplayout[header=1.75cm]\setupfooter[state=stop]\setupbackgrounds[page][background={picbackground,lecbackground}]} \define\picback{\setuplayout[header=0cm]\setupfooter[state=start]\setupbackgrounds[page][background={picbackground}]} \define\noback{\setupbackgrounds[page][background=nobackground]} %D We use combinations for placing vertical pictures and text side by side, and %D we want a distance of 1.1 cm between both. \setupcombinations[distance=1.1cm] %D The symbol for the first level of itemizations. \definesymbol[1][\useMPgraphic{ItSquare}] \setupitemize[1][color=c] \protect \stopmodule \endinput ----------------------------------------------------------- I try to modify \defineoverlay [lecbackground] [\useMPgraphic{horizontal}] to something like \defineoverlay [lecbackground] [\externalfigure[figure]] but it doesn't work. any idea? I need for example a.png on right top. and b.png bottom. -- 卷548_80 【送沈单作尉江都（一作许浑诗）】薛逢炀帝都城春水边，笙歌夜上木兰船。三千宫女自涂地，十万人家如洞天。焰焰花枝官舍晚，重重云影寺墙连。少年作尉须矜慎，莫向楼前坠马鞭。

type-win.tex beta version

Hello, Please, take a look at my type-win. All Western fonts shipped with XP are included. (Vista fonts are described by Wolfgang in other file.) Only Palatino Linotype does not work. \definetypescriptprefix [f:palatino] [Palatino Linotype] "Palatino Linotype" seems to be used already. Best, Vyatcheslav

With \setuphead[section][number=yes/no] how do you test whether what's being typeset is in a section or not ? Using \determineheadnumber[section] \currentheadnumber is only relevant when number=yes. -- Alan

Dear all, My .tex and .bib files are at the end of the email. The commands I run are context bibtry && context bibtry The first `context bibtry` is ok but no .bbl file generated. The second one complains publications : loading database from bibtry.bbl (bibtry.bbl ! Text line contains an invalid utf-8 sequence. l.22 n=2,s= åååå86] Can t-bib do with Chinese bib entry? or is it just a problem of bibtex? I'm using MkIV(current trunk) and t-bib(march 2, 2009). BTW. Is only absolute path can be used in \setupbibtex? Thanks.

Re: [NTG-context] protrusion and \quotation{…}

Thank you very much. Curious, with \hfill\quotation{…} there is still no protrusion on the right side (in regular text, without \hfill, it works as expected). Andreas

PDF grayscale conversion (OT)
by Alan Bowen 10 Mar '09

10 Mar '09

I have used to ConTeXt to generate a hefty PDF file with b/w text and color images. Is there a way to convert this file to a PDF file with b/ w text and grayscale images (256 shades)? I know I could always convert the images first and then reset the book, but I was wondering if there was a simpler more direct way before I start doing that. (There are over 70 images.) Best, Alan

Is there a script which can be called font-win.tex, which describes all OS-shipped fonts on Windows platform? If not, why? :o) Best, Vyatcheslav
