Hello, \mainlanguage[fr], but in the log: 'language en is active' is this no important ? if fact, the spacing of ': ; ? !' are not the french spacing (i prefer something intermediate betweeen the french and the german spacing ;-) -- René Bastian www.pythoneon.org www.musiques-rb.org http://www.soundsurvey.org.uk/

setupinterlinespace
by R. Bastian 22 Apr '10

22 Apr '10

Hello, What is the sense of \setupinterlinespace? In the following example, the distance between the line 1 and 2 seems to be smaller then between line 2 and 3. -------------------------------- \enableregime[utf] \mainlanguage[fr] \setupbodyfont[sansserif, 10pt] [...] {\setupinterlinespace[line=1.1ex] Le {\it Mittelhochdeutsches Taschenwôrterbuch} de Matthias Lexer dit: {\it Âventiuren swv. durch gefahrvolle unternehmungen aufs spiel setzen, wagen; [...], refl. sich zu wunderbaren ereignissen gestalten}\footnote{Traduc. approximative : risquer par d'entreprises périlleuses, braver le danger; [...] se réaliser sous forme d'évènements merveilleux.} -------------------------------------------- i can send an png image. \setupinterlinespace[line=3ex] works as i expect it in a table. -- René Bastian www.pythoneon.org www.musiques-rb.org http://www.soundsurvey.org.uk/

MathML Support
by Li, Dun 21 Apr '10

21 Apr '10

Hi, I'm new to ConText. I wonder if ConText could import or convert MathML embedded HTML or XML files. We have a program that creates HTML/XML documents with MathML embedded. We are using Microsoft Word to print the documents, but the output is not satisfactory. Thanks. Dun

ConTeXt for TL 2010
by Mojca Miklavec 21 Apr '10

21 Apr '10

Dear Hans, since the version of LuaTeX will be frozen to 0.60.0 in TeX Live (I assume), would it make sense to put some effort into making sure that the version of ConTeXt that will be shipped with TeX Live will be at least compatible (and possibly free of some bugs that will be discovered by the time of release) with the shipped LuaTeX or are you already in the middle of some big rewriting project targeting at luatex beta-0.6x/0.7x?

\framed[height=broad] vs \framed[height=fit]
by Aditya Mahajan 21 Apr '10

21 Apr '10

Hi, I was updating the wiki page on \framed and realized that I do not know the difference between height=broad|fit in \framed. Reading pack-rul suggests that both should behave similarly. The following example from pack-rul also shows no difference. \starttext \bgroup \showstruts \dontcomplain \startlinecorrection \halign{#\enskip&#\enskip&#\enskip&#\enskip&#\enskip&#\cr \framed[width=.2\hsize, height=.2\hsize, align=] {a\par b\par c}& \framed[width=.2\hsize, height=broad, align=] {a\par b\par c}& \framed[width=.2\hsize, height=fit, align=] {a\par b\par c}& \framed[width=fit, height=.2\hsize, align=] {a\par b\par c}& \framed[width=fit, height=broad, align=] {a\par b\par c}& \framed[width=fit, height=fit, align=] {a\par b\par c}\cr \noalign{\vskip1em} \framed[width=.2\hsize, height=.2\hsize, align=yes] {a\par b\par c}& \framed[width=.2\hsize, height=broad, align=yes] {a\par b\par c}& \framed[width=.2\hsize, height=fit, align=yes] {a\par b\par c}& \framed[width=fit, height=.2\hsize, align=yes] {a\par b\par c}& \framed[width=fit, height=broad, align=yes] {a\par b\par c}& \framed[width=fit, height=fit, align=yes] {a\par b\par c}\cr \noalign{\vskip1em} \framed[width=.2\hsize, height=.2\hsize, align=right] {a\par b\par c}& \framed[width=.2\hsize, height=broad, align=right] {a\par b\par c}& \framed[width=.2\hsize, height=fit, align=right] {a\par b\par c}& \framed[width=fit, height=.2\hsize, align=right] {a\par b\par c}& \framed[width=fit, height=broad, align=right] {a\par b\par c}& \framed[width=fit, height=fit, align=right] {a\par b\par c}\cr \noalign{\vskip1em} \framed[width=.2\hsize, height=.2\hsize, align=left] {a\par b\par c}& \framed[width=.2\hsize, height=broad, align=left] {a\par b\par c}& \framed[width=.2\hsize, height=fit, align=left] {a\par b\par c}& \framed[width=fit, height=.2\hsize, align=left] {a\par b\par c}& \framed[width=fit, height=broad, align=left] {a\par b\par c}& \framed[width=fit, height=fit, align=left] {a\par b\par c}\cr \noalign{\vskip1em} \framed[width=.2\hsize, height=.2\hsize, align=middle] {a\par b\par c}& \framed[width=.2\hsize, height=broad, align=middle] {a\par b\par c}& \framed[width=.2\hsize, height=fit, align=middle] {a\par b\par c}& \framed[width=fit, height=.2\hsize, align=middle] {a\par b\par c}& \framed[width=fit, height=broad, align=middle] {a\par b\par c}& \framed[width=fit, height=fit, align=middle] {a\par b\par c}\cr} \stoplinecorrection \blank[2*big] \egroup \stoptext Is there a difference between the two?

\setuptyping[numbering=line] don't emit line numbers
by Hongwen Qiu 21 Apr '10

21 Apr '10

$ context --version MTXrun | current version: 2010.04.16 21:08 $ luatex --version This is LuaTeX, Version beta-0.60.0-2010040422 I found that \setuptyping[numbering=line] no longer produces line numbers any more. So are there something changed, or just it's ought to be ok?

Following construction does not work for me. \setupitemize[each][packed][beforehead={}] Is there any possibility to suppress the vertical space around \head in packed itemize? (latest MKII) greetings Jan -- Tato zpráva byla vytvořena převratným poštovním klientem Opery: http://www.opera.com/mail/

Page headers & drop capitals not working but pagenumbering is
by Tom 20 Apr '10

20 Apr '10

The following code numbers the pages as I desired and the TOC lists those page numbers. However, it is not doing two things as I desire and would appreciate it if someone could indicate precisely which lines of code need to be corrected. In the front matter, page headers should be on the recto of the TOC (page vi) and pages 2 and 3 of the introduction. Page headers seem to be operating correctly in the body of the book. \placeinitial is not creating drop capitals on the first page of each chapter in the body of the text. Example code follows: %figure on left - chapter number and title on right \def\MyChapterCommandM#1#2% #1 is number, #2 is text {\startfiguretext[left]{none} {\externalfigure[flowers][width=.2\textwidth]} {\framed[frame=off,align=middle,width=broad] {\switchtobodyfont[15pt] #1\\\blank[small] #2}} \stopfiguretext} %no figure on left - chapter number and title on right \def\MyFrontMatterCommand#1#2% #1 is number, #2 is text {\framed[frame=off,align=middle,width=broad] {\switchtobodyfont[15pt] #1\\\blank[small] #2}} %eliminate headers on blank page at end of chapter \definepagebreak[mychapterpagebreak][yes,header,right] %put pagenumber on bottom of first page of chapter \definetext[chapter][footer][pagenumber] \setuphead[chapter][header=high,footer=chapter,page=mychapterpagebreak] \setuphead[title][header=high,footer=chapter,page=mychapterpagebreak] %turn off putting naked page numbers on pages \setuppagenumbering[location=] \setupsectionblock[bodypart][page=chapter] \setupsectionblock[frontpart][page=chapter] \startsectionblockenvironment[frontpart] \setuphead[title] [command=\MyFrontMatterCommand,textstyle=\ss\bf,number=no, header=empty,footer=chapter,page=mychapterpagebreak, after=\vskip 0.5in] \setuphead[chapter] [command=\MyFrontMatterCommand,textstyle=\ss\bf,number=no, header=empty,footer=chapter,page=mychapterpagebreak, numbercommand=\ss\bf\em\tfd,after=\vskip 0.5in,before=\vskip 1.0in \placeinitial %comment out this line to eliminate drop capitals ] \setupheadertexts[chapter] [chapter][pagenumber][pagenumber][chapter Example] \setupheadertexts[title] [title][pagenumber][pagenumber][title] \setuppagenumbering[alternative=doublesided] %\setupheader[state=stop] \stopsectionblockenvironment \startsectionblockenvironment[bodypart] \setuppagenumbering[alternative=doublesided] \setupheadertexts [chapter][pagenumber][pagenumber][Content Example] \setuphead[chapter] [command=\MyChapterCommandM,textstyle=\ss\bf, header=empty,footer=chapter,page=mychapterpagebreak, numbercommand=\ss\bf\em\tfd,after=\vskip 0.5in,before=\vskip 1.0in\placeinitial] %comment out this line to eliminate drop capitals \stopsectionblockenvironment \startsectionblockenvironment[appendix] \setupsectionblock[appendix][page=appendicespagebreak] \stopsectionblockenvironment \starttext \startfrontmatter Some random text to occupy front matter pages. \blank[medium] \input knuth \input knuth \input knuth \input knuth \input knuth \input knuth \input knuth \input knuth \input knuth \input knuth \input knuth \page[right] \setuppagenumbering[state=start,alternative=doublesided,conversion=romannume rals,location=] \setupheader[state=start] \title{Contents} \placecontent[alternative=c,criterium=all] \blank[medium] Random text added to push TOC onto a second page to test page headers. \blank[medium] \input knuth \input knuth \input knuth \input knuth \chapter{Preface} \input knuth \page[right] %switch from lower case Roman numerals to Arabic numbers \setuppagenumbering[state=start,alternative=doublesided,conversion=numbers] \setuppagenumber[state=start,number=1] \setuphead[chapter] [command=\MyChapterCommandM,textstyle=\ss\bf,number=no, header=empty,footer=chapter,page=mychapterpagebreak, numbercommand=\ss\bf\em\tfd,after=\vskip 0.5in,before=\vskip 1.0in \placeinitial %comment out this line to eliminate drop capitals ] \chapter{Introduction} \input knuth \input knuth \input knuth \input knuth \input knuth \input knuth \input knuth \input knuth \input knuth \input knuth \input knuth \stopfrontmatter \startbodymatter \chapter{Chapter One} \input knuth \input knuth \input knuth \input knuth \input knuth \input knuth \input knuth \input knuth \input knuth \input knuth \input knuth \chapter{Chapter Two} \input knuth \chapter{Chapter Three} \input knuth \page \stopbodymatter \startappendices \stopappendices \page[stop] \stoptext Tom Benjey 717-258-9733 voice 717-243-0074 fax Twitter: @TomBenjey
