ToC like entry list
by Jan Tosovsky 30 Jan '14

30 Jan '14

Dear All, I am trying to typeset a quite complex list of accounting entries. http://drifted.in/other/045.jpg It is like Table of Contents, but without page numbers. I have no idea what commands to use for this. There is no need to have it exactly the same, just roughly. Thanks, Jan

Dear All, how can I specify the alignment of narrower text, 'hanging' in my case? \definefontfamily[palatino][rm][Palatino Linotype][features={default, quality}] \setupbodyfont[palatino] \setupalign[hz, hanging] \setupindenting[medium, yes] \starttext \input{tufte} \setupnarrower[left=0cm] % surprisingly it is narrower \startnarrower[left] \setupalign[hz, hanging] % setting this again here has no effect \it >this is,\par just sample.<\par \stopnarrower \input{tufte} \stoptext Thanks, Jan

Lucida fonts with ConTeXt
by Fabrice Couvreur 30 Jan '14

Hi, I want to use the Lucida fonts. I understand that these are commercial fonts that I must buy. What should buy and where ? In the meantime, I tried to test the following file : \setuppapersize[A4] \setuplayout [backspace=15mm, width=middle, topspace=15mm, height=middle, header=0pt, footer=0pt] \setuppagenumbering[location=] \mainlanguage[fr] \loadtypescriptfile[lucida-typeone] \setupbodyfont[lucida,12pt] \setupTABLE[each][each][width=1cm,height=1cm,align={middle,lohi}] \starttext \startluacode context.bTABLE() context.bTR() context.bTD() context.math("x") context.eTD() context.bTD() context.math("f(x)") context.eTD() for i=-1,5 do context.bTR() context.bTD() context(i) context.eTD() context.bTD() context(-i^2+5*i-8) context.eTD() context.eTR() end context.eTR() context.eTABLE() \stopluacode \stoptext fab@debian:~$ source context/tex/setuptex Setting "/home/fab/context/tex" as ConTeXt root. fab@debian:~$ context demo10.tex mtx-context | run 1: luatex --fmt="/home/fab/context/tex/texmf-cache/luatex-cache/context/5fe67e0bfe781ce0dde776fb1556f32e/formats/luatex/cont-en" --jobname="demo10" --lua="/home/fab/context/tex/texmf-cache/luatex-cache/context/5fe67e0bfe781ce0dde776fb1556f32e/formats/luatex/cont-en.lui" --no-parse-first-line --c:currentrun=1 --c:fulljobname="./demo10.tex" --c:input="./demo10.tex" --c:kindofrun=1 --c:maxnofruns=8 "cont-yes.mkiv" This is LuaTeX, Version beta-0.78.2 (TeX Live 2014/dev) (rev 4746) \write18 enabled.

Ubuntu Light font

30 Jan '14

Dear all, I would like to use the light version of the Ubuntu font both for text and for text in math environment. The list of fonts is the following *mtxrun --script fonts --list --all | grep ubuntuubuntu ubuntu /home/flavien/.fonts/Ubuntu-R.ttfubuntubold ubuntubold /home/flavien/.fonts/Ubuntu-B.ttfubuntubolditalic ubuntubolditalic /home/flavien/.fonts/Ubuntu-BI.ttfubuntucondensed ubuntucondensedregular /home/flavien/.fonts/Ubuntu-C.ttfubuntucondensednormal ubuntucondensedregular /home/flavien/.fonts/Ubuntu-C.ttfubuntucondensedregular ubuntucondensedregular /home/flavien/.fonts/Ubuntu-C.ttfubuntuitalic ubuntuitalic /home/flavien/.fonts/Ubuntu-RI.ttfubuntulight ubuntulight /home/flavien/.fonts/Ubuntu-L.ttfubuntulightitalic ubuntulightitalic /home/flavien/.fonts/Ubuntu-LI.ttfubuntumedium ubuntumedium /home/flavien/.fonts/Ubuntu-M.ttfubuntumediumitalic ubuntumediumitalic /home/flavien/.fonts/Ubuntu-MI.ttfubuntumono ubuntumonoregular /home/flavien/.fonts/UbuntuMono-R.ttfubuntumonobold ubuntumonobold /home/flavien/.fonts/UbuntuMono-B.ttfubuntumonobolditalic ubuntumonobolditalic /home/flavien/.fonts/UbuntuMono-BI.ttfubuntumonoitalic ubuntumonoitalic /home/flavien/.fonts/UbuntuMono-RI.ttfubuntumononormal ubuntumonoregular /home/flavien/.fonts/UbuntuMono-R.ttfubuntumonoregular ubuntumonoregular /home/flavien/.fonts/UbuntuMono-R.ttfubuntunormal ubuntu /home/flavien/.fonts/Ubuntu-R.ttfubunturegular ubuntulight /home/flavien/.fonts/Ubuntu-L.ttf* I tried a script that I used before for Maven pro through, *\definefontfeature[default][default][script=latin]\definefontfamily[mainface][sans][ubuntulight]\definefallbackfamily [mainface] [math] [ubuntulight] [math:lowercaseitalic] [force=yes]\definefallbackfamily [mainface] [math] [ubuntulight] [math:digitsnormal] [force=yes]\definefontfamily [mainface] [math] [TeX Gyre Pagella Math]\definebodyfontenvironment [11pt][a=12pt,b=14.4pt,c=17.3pt,d=32pt,interlinespace=13pt]\setupbodyfont[mainface,11pt]* but it does not work (it is ok if I use ubuntu instead of ubuntulight).

Testpage with extras
by "H. Özoguz" 30 Jan '14

30 Jan '14

Hi there, I asked a similar question before, but I try it again (in a bit different way): The command \testpage[n] Paragraph sets the next paragraph on the next page, if there are less than n lines left on the current page. I use this command very often, but need it with some extension: If \testpage is "active" (meaning, there are indeed less than n lines left), then it should not only input an pagebreak, but also some other command. E.g.: somewhat like \testpage[n,{\noindentation}] should add "\noindentation" before the paragraph, if and only if, there are less than n lines left. Or maybe: "\testpage[n, {TESTPAGE IS ACTIV}" to simply add this text infront of the next paragraph (of course the first one is more interesting). At the moment I use \testpage[n]\noindentation but that fails, if the document has changed and there are >= n lines left => no pagebreak, but still \noindentation of course - but they only should act simultaneously. Is that possible in some way? Best regards! Huseyin

Metafun: numeric=color

Hi, With the latest beta, ConTeXt ver: 2013.06.07 17:34 MKII fmt: 2014.1.29 in a file typeset with mkii I have a bunch of metapost macros (drawing a logo…) which used to typeset correctly until last week, I get an error message saying: Preloading the plain mem file, version 1.004 for metafun ii >> cyan >> (0,1,1) ! Equation cannot be performed (numeric=color). Unfortunately I cannot reproduce this error message in a minimal example, but can anyone tell me whether something has changed in MetaPost? Best regards: OK

xterm dynamic title
by Alan BRASLAU 29 Jan '14

29 Jan '14

Hello, Using xterm and related emulators, one can set a dynamic title. Many applications set this title. (Of course, the user can program the emulator to ignore such dynamic titles, if preferred). I find it useful, especially when I have many terminal windows open, all running different processes in parallel. May I suggest the following simple change to the context script: #!/bin/sh case "$TERM" in *xterm*) echo -e -n "\e]0;${0##*/} $*\a" ;; esac mtxrun --script context "$@" 1. Perhaps it would be preferred to implement such a feature in the mtx-context.lua script, for example, rather than the shell script, as one could then add useful information such as the run number. Also, one may (or may not) want to do this when running -batch, etc. 2. On non-unix-like systems, perhaps the $TERM case would be different. Alan
