quotation marks for language latin
by Thomas A. Schmitz 01 May '11

01 May '11

Hi all, Hans, in lang-def.mkiv (line 623) and and lang-ita.mkii (line 101), we have \installlanguage % the same as italian [\s!la] [\c!rightquote=\lowerrightsingleninequote, \c!rightquotation=\lowerrightdoubleninequote, ... This can't possibly be right (is there a language which has “quote„ ?). I think the usual thing would be \installlanguage [\s!la] [\c!rightquotation=\upperrightdoubleninequote, \c!rightquote=\upperrightsingleninequote, ... Thomas

problem with printing pdf files (MKIV on Mac)
by Mojca Miklavec 01 May '11

01 May '11

Hello, I'm not sure if anyone will be able to help, but it doesn't hurt to ask. I'm using ConTeXt MKIV 2011.03.11 11:45 (I will try to upgrade first). When I try to print the document from Mac (Skim.app) to two different printers, I get pure junk on both of them (bold and italic fonts come out semi-ok, but regular doesn't). If I print an older document or if I compile the same document with MKII, the document prints out fine on the same printer. The document also prints out fine when printing from Linux. I'm using one network PostScript printer and one network printer that is most probably using PCL drivers and both generate junk. I'm using "palatino" typescript. Mac is well known for displaying Word-generated documents as almost-pure-junk (one gets a different font and screwed up kerning instead of the original font that one would see in Word or in generated PDF when opened with Adobe Acrobat; but I'm not sure if it is Apple or Microsoft that have buggy software in that case) and for crashing on documents using smooth shading patterns. Does anyone have any suggestion how I could figure out what is wrong with the document? I would like to figure out if it is LuaTeX's or Apple's fault that it behaves so weird. (Can I send a document to PostScript printer on specific IP from a Mac without having to use Apple's libraries for handling PDF?) Mojca

modules with no author
by Patrick Gundlach 01 May '11

Hi, the modules "Transliterator" and "Gantt (TikZ)" don't have an author or files. I think they can be removed from modules.contextgarden.net. Any opinion? Patrick http://modules.contextgarden.net/gantt-tikz http://modules.contextgarden.net/Transliterator
