combining characters in stretchednormalcase
by Daniel Schopper 12 Aug '11

12 Aug '11

Dear all, combining characters inside of \stretchednormalcase appear shifted to the right. Is this the expected behavior? If not so, is there anything I can do about it? Test case: \def\stretchedspacefactor{4} \def\stretchedspaceamount{.15em} \setupbodyfont[junicode,10pt] \starttext \stretchednormalcase{ſaͤſoͤſuͤ} \stoptext Tested on current version: 2011.08.04 00:42. Thanks, Daniel

some bug in xml processing
by Thomas A. Schmitz 12 Aug '11

12 Aug '11

Hi all, Hans, you won't like this a bit, but I'm hitting a bug in xml-processing with the latest beta. It's a fairly complex setup, so I don't have a minimal example yet. All I can say is: it works with version 2011.06.19 14:17 (which I have on a server), but when I process the same files with version 2011.08.04 00:42, I get this error: structure > sectioning > section @ level 3 : 0.0.1 -> 8. November 2011: \hfill \bgroup \em Ilias\egroup und \bgroup \em Odyssee\egroup ) ! Incomplete \iffalse; all text was ignored after line 9. system > tex > error on line 0 in file : Incomplete \iffalse; all text was ignored after line 9 ... <empty file> <inserted text> \fi <*> homertalk.run \stoptext I'm posting with the improbable hope that Hans will have a clue where this "incomplete iffalse" is coming from; otherwise, I will try and come up with a minimal example, which might be a rather long process... All best Thomas

It seems like \definefontsynonym in MacTeX 2011 does not map the specified font (e.g. MinionPro-Regular) into Serif.

Hi Wolfgang, what is the correct way to setup protrusion and expansion with your simplefonts module? I've tried: \usemodule[simplefonts] \setmainfont[texgyrepagella][expansion=yes,protrusion=yes] % \definefontfeature [default] [default] [mode=node,expansion=quality,protrusion=quality] % \setupbodyfont[pagella] \setupalign[hz,hanging] \starttext \startcolumns \input tufte \stopcolumns \stoptext Greeting Andreas

Digits and exponents
by Ian Lawrence 10 Aug '11

10 Aug '11

Morning all, I am trying to get together something for expressing physics appropriately and precisely. The \units and \lunits command and I are becoming better acquainted, but now I ma having grief with with the \digits{}. In particular, exponents don't seem to function as documented in the 'my way' and I cannot find anything more up to date on the wiki. Input: \digits 123.222,00^10 \digits 123.222,00e10 \digits /123.222,00e-12 \digits -123.222,00e-12 \digits +123.222,00e-12 Actual output: 123 222.0010 123 222.0010 123 222.00−12 −123 222.00−12 +123 222.00−12 (in each case last two digits are superscript, as their signs) Expected output 123.222,00 · 1010 123.222,00 · 1010 123.222,00 · 10−12 -123.222,00 · 10−12 +123.222,00 · 10−12 (in each case last two digits are superscript, as their signs) ???Anyone?

Alignment with inline headings

Hi, I am looking for a way to vertically align the start of paragraphs after an inline header, i.e. in the following example, I would like each first word (Lorem, Lorem, Suspendisse, Cras, Proin, ...) to start on the same column.

Thanks for your help. \setuphead[section][alternative=text,before=,after=] \starttext \chapter{Chapter} \section{} Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. \section{} Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit.

Hi everybody, I need to use the following numbering scheme for the different section levels. I Chapter I.A Section I.A.1 Sub-section a Sub-sub-section No problem with MkII, the following example gives the desired result. \setupsection[section-2][conversion=Romannumerals] \setupsection[section-3][conversion=Character] \setupsection[section-4][conversion=numbers] \setupsection[section-5][conversion=character,previousnumber=no] \starttext \chapter{Chapter} \section{Section} \subsection{Sub-section} \subsubsection{Sub-sub-section} Paragraph. \stoptext The same file with MkIV (ver: 2011.05.18 18:04 MKIV) gives I Chapter A.A Section A.A.A Sub-section A.A.A.A Sub-sub-section What am I doing wrong? -- Jean-Philippe Rey Professeur - École Centrale Paris jean-philippe.rey(a)ecp.fr 92295 Châtenay-Malabry Cedex - France

Conflict between fr and cyrillic
by Jean-Philippe Rey 10 Aug '11

10 Aug '11

Hi everybody, I have an almost finished report inside which I need to typeset some russian words. I am using ConTeXt Standalone current (2011.05.18 18:04 MKII). Reading the wiki, it seems that there are no more fonts with cyrillic glyphs in this distribution. So I switched to XeTeX in order to use my system fonts. Unfortunately I stumbled into a problem when combining my fr settings with a font switching command. Here is a minimal example. \mainlanguage[fr] \useencoding[ffr] \definefontsynonym[CyrF][name:Lucida Grande] \definefont[Russian][CyrF sa 1] \starttext Quelques caractères cyrilliques {\Russian Мама и Папа} et on continue tranquillement. \stoptext If I delete either line \mainlanguage[fr] or \useencoding[ffr] everything works fine (for the font switching, but obviously not for the other part of my report :-). Below is the output when I try to compile the above example with "texexec --xtx". Could someone tell me if I am doing something wrong. Thanks.
