Problem with math!
by Verhaag, G.C.H.M. 25 Feb '12

25 Feb '12

Hi ConTeXt users, Currently I'm experiencing problems with inline math mode in combination with the addff{oldstyle} command! The attached test file doens't compile with the latest version 2012.2.18 (MkIV), which seems to be caused by the introduction of the $\bullet$! With older versions this worked okay! Regards, Gerard Verhaag

Collision of sectioning and bibliography?
by Jaroslav Hajtmar 25 Feb '12

25 Feb '12

Hello ConTeXist. After two years I recreate a larger project (that was created using the MKII) and convert it into MKIV. And I ran into some major problems. I try to describe it and ask you about help. Collisions of sectioning and bibliography: When put into the document sections (using \section{} or \title{} commands), bibliography stops working and the error will appear in the bibliography links (Error2) and a list of the bibliography does not list. What I am doing wrong? Thanx Jaroslav Hajtmar Here is my minimal example: \setupbibtex[database={samplebib}] \setuppublications[alternative=ams] % Content of file "samplebib.bib" is: % % @STRING{hh = {Hans Hagen}} % % @ARTICLE{hh2010a, % author = hh, % title = {The Font Name Mess}, % journal = {MAPS}, % year = {2010}, % volume = {40}, % pages = {2-8}, % keywords = {context}, % } % % @BOOK{Eijkhout1991, % title = {\TeX\ by Topic. A \TeX nician's Reference}, % publisher = {Addison-Wesley}, % year = {1991}, % author = {Victor Eijkhout}, % address = {London}, % keywords = {general}, % } \starttext Citation one is \cite[hh2010a] and another citation is \cite[Eijkhout1991]. % When you uncomment next line, then bibliography crashed %\section{List of citations} \placepublications[criterium=cite] \stoptext

Preparing the print: ICC-Profiles, Fogra, (in german untranslatable)
by Jan Heinen 24 Feb '12

24 Feb '12

My book is ready and I want to print it next week. 1. The printer told me to set up my PDF with the following values: PDF/X-1a:2003, ISO Coated v2 (ECI) 2. And I did: \setupbackend [format=PDF/X-1a:2003, intent={ISO Coated v2 (ECI)}] 3. Then I send a test-PDF to my printer and got the following answer: 4. The printers answer in german: Die Ausgabebedingung ist mit FOGRA 39 hinterlegt. Dadurch erscheint eine falsche Farbvoransicht. FOGRA 39 sind "nur" Charakterisierungsdaten zur Erzeugung von ICC-Profilen für die entsprechenden Ausgabebedingungen. Wenn die Bilddaten in den "ISO Coated v2 (ECI)" Farbraum separiert wurden, sollte dieser am Besten hier als Name hinterlegt werden. Die Kennung der Ausgabebedingung wäre "Fogra 39". I failed trying to translate this answer into english. I hope there is someone here who understands the german answer. Regards Jannis

Formula number conversion
by Jean-Philippe Rey 24 Feb '12

24 Feb '12

Hello everybody, I have a problem with formula numbering in relation with a customized section conversion set. I am using ConTeXt current ConTeXt ver: 2011.05.18 18:04 MKIV fmt: 2011.7.31 int: english/english Here is a minimal example \definestructureconversionset[CCS][numbers,Character,Romannumerals,numbers,character][numbers] \setupheads[sectionconversionset=CCS] \starttext \chapter{Lorem} \section{Ipsum} \placeformula[f1] % The formula is numbered (1.1) instead of (A.1) \startformula a^2 + b^2 = c^2 \stopformula \section{Dolor} The famous formula \in[f1] % The reference correctly appears as A.1 \stoptext I tried different options to \setupformulas but could not get the formula number right. Could someone give me the right setting. Thanks, -- Jean-Philippe Rey Professeur - École Centrale Paris jean-philippe.rey(a)ecp.fr 92295 Châtenay-Malabry Cedex - France

Re: [NTG-context] Overprinting
by Jan Heinen 24 Feb '12

24 Feb '12

I got an answer from my printer to the example I have shown in this thread: > \framed[% > width=80mm,height=50mm, > background=color, > backgroundcolor=myc, > ] > > {\startcolorintent[overprint]2 Overprinted or not?\stopcolorintent} His answer in german: "Die Texte, welche auf Kasten 2 stehen, sind innerhalb Ihrer erzeugten Datei zwar alle überdruckend eingestellt, visuell allerdings aussparend." My translation: The text on box 2 is formated as overprinted but visualy spared out. What the hell is going on?

I again must come to this point. At the end of this week I want to give my book (pdf) to the printer to print. But he says: Your texts are not overprinted over colored areas. What do I have to do? The company who prints my books says that my text is not overprinted over the framed boxes. They do a preflight with Adobe. I think, I made no mistake - what do you think? I hope it is not a missing \par? \setupcolors[state=start,rgb=no,cmyk=yes] \definecolor[myc] [c=.40, m=.10, y=.50, k=0] \starttext \framed[% width=80mm,height=50mm, background=color, backgroundcolor=myc, ] {1 Overprinted or not?} \blank[big] \framed[% width=80mm,height=50mm, background=color, backgroundcolor=myc, ] {\startcolorintent[overprint]2 Overprinted or not?\stopcolorintent} \blank[big] \framed[% width=80mm,height=50mm, background=color, backgroundcolor=myc, ] {\startcolorintent[knockout]3 Overprinted or not?\stopcolorintent} \stoptext Regards Jannis

problem with \getparameters
by Thomas A. Schmitz 23 Feb '12

23 Feb '12

Hi all, I'm trying to use \getparameters, but I'm doing it wrong. What I want to do is: define an environment which starts linenumbering and takes a key=value argument to define the start of the numbers. Here's what I tried (I also tried a few other things, such as \setvariables, but wasn't any more successful): \definestartstop[mynumberedblockquote] [before={\blank[line] \setupindenting[no] \setuplinenumbering[width=1cm,start=\getvalue{testsetupsstart}] \startlinenumbering}, after={\stoplinenumbering \setupindenting[yes] {\blank[line]} \par}] \def\startnumberedblockquote#1[#2]% {\getparameters[testsetups][start=1,#2]% \startmynumberedblockquote} \define\stopnumberedblockquote% {\stopmynumberedblockquote} \starttext Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consetetur sadipscing elitr, sed diam nonumy eirmod tempor invidunt ut labore et dolore magna aliquyam erat, sed diam voluptua. At vero eos et accusam et justo duo dolores et ea rebum. Stet clita kasd gubergren, no sea takimata sanctus est Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet. \startnumberedblockquote [start=9] Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet \stopnumberedblockquote Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consetetur sadipscing elitr, sed diam nonumy eirmod tempor invidunt ut labore et dolore magna aliquyam erat, sed diam voluptua. At vero eos et accusam et justo duo dolores et ea rebum. Stet clita kasd gubergren, \startnumberedblockquote[start=19] consetetur sadipscing elitr sed diam \stopnumberedblockquote \stoptext But for some reason, the numbers are not local for each block. Can anybody shed some light into these (for me) dark an mysterious corners of ConTeXt? Thanks a lot! Thomas

Incorrect rendering of * with UTF math fonts
by Aditya Mahajan 22 Feb '12

22 Feb '12

Hi, Using * in superscripts gives wrong glyph size and spacing. For example, with LM math everyhing looks fine: \starttext $x^*$ vs $x^{\ast}$ \stoptext With Cambria, the result is OK (but you can still see the differences in the spacing of * in x^*) \usemodule[simplefonts] \setmathfont[Cambria] \starttext $x^*$ vs $x^{\ast}$ \stoptext With Neo Euler, $x^*$ look really bad. \usemodule[simplefonts] \setmathfont[Cambria] \starttext $x^*$ vs $x^{\ast}$ \stoptext I cannot figure out why this is happening. It definitely looks like a bug at the context end rather than a bug with the fonts. Aditya

Page count of PDF file from lua
by Marco 22 Feb '12

22 Feb '12

I can't figure out how to determine the number of pages of a PDF file within lua. From the TeX side it works with \getfiguredimensions Can somebody give me a nudge in the right direction? Example: \starttext % Works %\getfiguredimensions [somefile.pdf] \startluacode -- Does not work context.getfiguredimensions({"somefile.pdf"}) local numpages = figures.get("used", "pages", 0) context(numpages) \stopluacode \stoptext Marco
