Hi there, as soon as I activate arranging "XY", and run ConTeXt with "-- arrange", I get this error: ConTeXt ver: 2011.12.16 13:54 MKIV fmt: 2011.12.16 int: english/ english \@@pp:height ...rheight -2\v_page_target_topspace \relax \v_page_target_height ...argetparameter \c!height \relax \pusharrangedpage ...\ifdim \v_page_target_height >\zeropoint to \v_page_tar... \page_shipouts_arrange ...rrangedpage \scratchbox \deadcycles \zerocount \page_boxes_shipout ... {\box \shipoutscratchbox } \fi \the \everyaftershipou... \finaloutput ...\page_boxes_constructed_page #1#2} \vskip \zeropoint \relax \... ... l.24 \stoptext Tiny example: \setuppapersize [A7][A4] \setuppaper [nx=2,ny=2] \setuparranging [XY] \starttext \strut \stoptext Other imposition schemas like 2UP seem to work.

Citation "Error 2" using BibTeX db
by Chris Lott 20 Dec '11

20 Dec '11

I was testing citation capability with a BibTeX db based on the Context Garden bibliography page: http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Bibliography The example code using the xampl.bib from my distribution didn't work at all. So I've tried to make a very small example, which results in an in-text citation that says [[error 2]] and no citations listed in the References section: CONTEXT --VERSION mtx-context | main context file: /Users/chrislott/context/tex/texmf-context/tex/context/base/context.mkiv mtx-context | current version: 2011.12.18 15:57 CTXBIBTEST.TEX (I've tried with and without the bibltx module, which isn't found on my system) \usemodule[bib] \usemodule[bibltx] \setupbibtex[database=bibtest] \starttext "Oh No," he said \cite[lott]. \completepublications \stoptext BIBTEST.BIB @book{lott, author = "Chris Lott", title = "FUBARed", publisher = "NonExistent Press", year = "2011", address = "Timbuktu" } CTXBIBTEST.BBL (generated by ConTeXt): \setuppublicationlist[samplesize={Lot11},totalnumber=1] \startpublication[k=lott,t=book, a={{Lott}},y=2011, n=1,s=Lot11] \author[]{Chris}[C.]{}{Lott} \pubyear{2011} \title{FUBARed} \city{Timbuktu} \pubname{NonExistent Press} \stoppublication CTXBIBTEST.AUX (generated by ConTeXt) c -- Chris Lott <chris(a)chrislott.org>

Hey Wolfgang, This morning's daily appears broken as well. I've noticed that ConTeXt 2011.11.29 was the last working build for me. The error message changes from day to day, and today it gives the most mysterious: $ context Source/Handbook.tex --purgeresult --batchmodendbook.pdf" --purgeresult -- resolvers | resolving | loading configuration file 'selfautodir:/share/texmf/web2c/contextcnf.lua' resolvers | resolving | loading configuration file '/usr/share/texmf/web2c/contextcnf.lua' mtx-context | run 1: luatex --interaction=batchmode --fmt="/home/kip/.texmf-var/luatex-cache/context/e570cb3e0e3ab0118ca08dd148bbec7d/formats/cont-en" --lua="/home/kip/.texmf-var/luatex-cache/context/e570cb3e0e3ab0118ca08dd148bbec7d/formats/cont-en.lui" --backend="pdf" "Source/Handbook.tex" \stoptext This is LuaTeX, Version beta-0.71.0-2011101421 (rev 4358) \write18 enabled. resolvers > resolving > loading configuration file '/usr/share/texmf/web2c/contextcnf.lua' system > cont-new.mkiv loaded system > beware: some patches loaded from cont-new.mkiv system > Handbook.top loaded fonts > latin modern fonts are not preloaded languages > language en is active fonts > preloading latin modern fonts (second stage) files > readfile > asked name: 'loc', not found fonts > defining > forced type afm of stmary10 not found fonts > defining > font with asked name 'stmary10' is not found using lookup 'file' fonts > virtual math > loading font LMMath7-Regular subfont 9 with name stmary10.afm at 458752 is skipped, not found fonts > defining > forced type afm of stmary10 not found fonts > defining > font with asked name 'stmary10' is not found using lookup 'file' fonts > virtual math > loading font LMMath9-Regular subfont 9 with name stmary10.afm at 589824 is skipped, not found fonts > defining > forced type afm of stmary10 not found fonts > defining > font with asked name 'stmary10' is not found using lookup 'file' fonts > virtual math > loading font LMMath12-Regular subfont 9 with name stmary10.afm at 786432 is skipped, not found fonts > fallback modern rm 12pt is loaded resolvers > modules > loaded: 'units' resolvers > modules > loaded: 'simplefonts' loading > ConTeXt User Module / Simplefonts fonts > beware: fontclass ignored (if needed use: [fontclass][size][settings]) backend > xmp > using file '/usr/share/texmf/tex/context/base/lpdf-pdx.xml' pages > flushing realpage 1, userpage 1, subpage 1 pages > flushing realpage 2, userpage 1, subpage 2 structure > sectioning > title @ level 2 : 0.0 -> \headtext {content} [...] pages > flushing realpage 182, userpage 180, subpage 30 pages > flushing realpage 183, userpage 181, subpage 31 structure > sectioning > chapter @ level 2 : 0.2 -> \headtext {index} pages > flushing realpage 184, userpage 182, subpage 1 mkiv lua stats > used config file -

Is the Annotation module incompatible with the latest beta?
by Otared Kavian 19 Dec '11

19 Dec '11

Dear Wolfgang, It seems that I cannot use anymore your annotation module with the latest beta (ConTeXt ver: 2011.12.19 01:47 MKIV fmt: 2011.12.19). For instance the example below stops with an error message saying Undefined control sequence in t-annotation.lua and it seems that \doletannotationparameter is considered to be undefined. Best regards: OK PS: The example file is: %%% begin test-annotation.tex \usemodule[annotation] \setupannotation [text=Annotation , number=yes] \starttext \startannotation The Earth, as a habitat for animal life, is in old age and has a fatal illness. Several, in fact. It would be happening whether humans had ever evolved or not. But our presence is like the effect of an old-age patient who smokes many packs of cigarettes per day – and we humans are the cigarettes. \stopannotation \stoptext %%% end test-annotation.tex

Setting up examination sheets
by Otared Kavian 19 Dec '11

19 Dec '11

Dear Hans Van der Meer, Looking for a nice way to set up examination sheets with ConTeXt I found your hvdm-exm module very interesting, but unfortunatley I could not typeset a short test file extracted from your MAPS article Exam papers: posing questions to students which dates from 2006. Is there an updated version of your module usable with mkiv, or have you other solutions for setting up problems sheets? Thanks in advance: OK
