How do I enable the output of for example: report_typescripts("unknown library %a or %a",name_one,name_two) defined by local report_typescripts = logs.reporter("fonts","typescripts") Hans van der Meer

> works ok here (in latest beta) Sorry, my fault. Of course it works, but it was not r2l (and so not readably), this one is the not working: \definefont[amiri][file:amiri-regular.ttf*arabic at 17pt] \define[1]\Arab{\setuplayout[r2l] \amiri#1} \starttext \Arab{بِسْمِ اللَّـهِ الرَّ‌حْمَـٰنِ الرَّ‌حِيمِ} \stoptext Maybe the command \setuplayout[r2l] should be replaced by some other command?

Problems with arabic font "Amiri"
by "H. Özoguz" 08 May '13

08 May '13

Hello, I tried to type with the arabic font "Amiri" by K. Hosny. You can download it here: http://sourceforge.net/projects/amiri/ In this download-page you find a nice example of the font, setting the sura "Al-Fatiha" (first section of the Holy Qur'an). I tried to regain this example with ConTeXt, but failed. Here is my try: \definefont[amiri][file:amiri-regular.ttf*arabic at 17pt] \define[1]\Arab{\amiri#1} \starttext \Arab{بِسْمِ اللَّـهِ الرَّ‌حْمَـٰنِ الرَّ‌حِيمِ} \stoptext But that doesn't compile here. I get this error: !

extra line after switchtobodyfont
by Meer, H. van der 07 May '13

07 May '13

A call to \switchtobodyfont introduces extra vertical spacing as can be seen in the example. Is this intentional or is it something like a % missing somewhere in a macro? Hans van der Meer \setuppapersize[A6][A6] \setupbodyfont[lucidaot] \starttext First line.\crlf \start \switchtobodyfont[euler] Font switch here.\crlf \stop Last line. \hairline First line.\crlf \start Font switch here.\crlf \stop Last line. \stoptext

Update value of \headerheight based on header content
by Adam Khan 07 May '13

07 May '13

The code for my headers is of the form: \setupheadertexts[{\inframed[frame=off,width=\textwidth,location=depth,align={right,broad,nothyphenated},tolerance=verytolerant]{Author\\Title\\\tab{\getmarking[chapternumber]} \getmarking[chapter] \wordright{\pagenumber}}}] As you might imagine, the name of every chapter is not the same length. I would like to update the value of \headerheight for each component (each component of my project contains exactly one chapter.) based on the header contents that are produced for it. In LaTeX, for example, I do something similar with the following code: \settototalheight{\headheight}{\parbox{\textwidth}{Author\\Title\\\nameref{chaptername}} Any ideas? Sincerely yours, Adam Khan

Re: [NTG-context] Arabic typesetting, one more

> i only followed this topic on a distance so first we need an example > that clearly shows a problem I described an example here: http://www.ntg.nl/pipermail/ntg-context/2013/073025.html as a code, and with a pdf in attachment. Maybe it is not clear what I mean?: The "slash" is set too low, and this only in ConTeXt. Is the example good enough? Huseyin

makeing xml-node
by Meer, H. van der 07 May '13

07 May '13

With \xmlload{myroot}{file} I can load an xml file and the execute on its nodes. However what to do if the file is not of the form <root>file-contents</root>? In that case it would help if I could contruct a node with with some actions like: <root>\input{fileconytents</root> and then operate with xml commands on that <root> node. Can this be accomplished?
