by Steffen Wolfrum 17 Jun '11

17 Jun '11

Hi, how can \setcharacterspacing[frenchpunctuation] be disabled temporary? For example in texts like this: \starttext \mainlanguage[fr] \setcharacterspacing[frenchpunctuation] bodytext: french {\language[en] quote: english} bodytext: french \stoptext Thanks, Steffen

How to define fallback font for symbols
by Vianney le Clément 17 Jun '11

17 Jun '11

Hi all, Is it possible to set a fallback font from which glyphs will be taken if the current font doesn't have it? For example, I'd want to use fancy miscellaneous symbols from the Symbola font using their unicode codepoint without any extra font-changing command (and obviously, I don't want to use Symbola for the rest of the text). Alternatively, setting different fonts for different unicode blocks would also do the trick. Vianney

That worked. I always seem to look in N-1 places, but you always remind me that it was in the Nth all along. -- Kip Warner -- Software Engineer OpenPGP encrypted/signed mail preferred http://www.thevertigo.com

sources of http://www.pragma-ade.com/general/manuals/style.pdf
by Alexandre Krispin 16 Jun '11

Hello, I am a beginner with Context, and would like to know if there is a way to get the sources of the following document : http://www.pragma-ade.com/general/manuals/style.pdf I am trying to adapt the style I use with Latex (that is to say : http://mirrors.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/classicthesis/ClassicThesis.pdf) and this document has some features which might be useful for it. Moreover I don't know how to make the command width=66\averagecharacterwidth work, if I see the sources I may be successful in trying to make it work. Sincerely -- Alexandre KRISPIN

Placing figures flush right and captions in the margin
by Christoph Redecker 16 Jun '11

16 Jun '11

Hi, I want to place my figures flush right, so that they are aligned with the right border of my text area. Captions should be in the right margin, flush left, ragged right. It is a one-sided document. I've tried \setupfloats[ location=right] \setupcaptions[ location=rightmargin, align=flushleft, headstyle=\tfx, style=\tfx] \usemodule[tikz] \starttext \placefigure{Test figure caption with a pretty long text which might eventually require a line break.}{ \starttikzpicture \draw (0,0) rectangle (2,2); \stoptikzpicture } \stoptext and the figure is placed left, and no caption is shown. When I remove location=rightmargin, the caption is visible. Other settings I've tried: outermargin - invisible righthanging - invisible right - caption is typeset in the gap between text and margin I found this old thread: http://archive.contextgarden.net/message/20090707.065101.8175a86c.en.html, but it is not very enlightening. I'm taking the options from http://pmrb.free.fr/contextref.pdf. My ConTeXt version is 2011.06.11. How can I place figures flush right? How can I place the captions in the right margin? Regards Christoph

Hi, I just came across this compilation: http://unicode.org/udhr/n/notes_fra.html Is this (exactly) what is implemented in ConTeXT with \setcharacterspacing[frenchpunctuation] ? Thank you, Steffen

combining character (unicode 0364)
by Daniel Schopper 16 Jun '11

16 Jun '11

Dear list, a question concerning combining characters: I try to make a letter out of a small elevated „e“ (unicode 0364, combining latin small letter e) with „a“, „o“ and „u“ using Junicode with Wolfgang Schuster’s typescript. In Fontforge the mark positioning lookup looks good to me, but ConTeXt somehow seems to ignore the anchors in the font. The „mark“-feature is enabled in the typescript. Maybe someone can give me a hint how to get this working? Thanks in advance! Daniel

dejavu math fallback?
by Reviczky, Adam 16 Jun '11

16 Jun '11

Hi Using math with dejavu as the bodyfont produces: ! Math error: parameter \Umathquad\displaystyle is not set. minimal example: --- \setupbodyfont[dejavu] \starttext $e = mc^2$ \stoptext --- Installing the xits-math (https://github.com/khaledhosny/xits-math/) solves the problem. Shouldn't there be a fallback to lmmath or similar? Log using context without xits-math attached. Adam
