Hi, After upgrading to version 2014.10.07, I recompiled a document that had gathered some dust and was greeted with: tex error > error on line 34 in file ...: ! Math error: parameter \Umathquad\displaystyle is not set The document compiled using a previous version, and no changes were made prior to upgrading. Having the line number and filename is a good start. The error message, however, is confounding. >From this error message I have no idea: - What triggered the error. - Why \Umathquad\displaystyle is relevant. - How to resolve the problem. >From superficial appearances, line 34 is fine (itemized list). In addition to the error message, would it be possible to provide a link to the wiki that offers more information? The information on the wiki page would include: - a unique identifier for the error number (e.g., err-tex-00001) - the error string ("Math error: parameter ... is not set") - a simple document that shows how to reproduce the problem - a document that shows one way to fix the issue - if relevant, note the ConTeXt version(s) that the simple document compiles without error - a brief description of why the error happens (i.e., explain why the error shows up in the subsequent ConTeXt versions) Thank you.

Any plans on documentation?
by MANUEL BLANCO IRIGARAY 27 Oct '14

Hi, I think I saw in the plan of the ConTeXt meeting something about documentation. Was anything cleared there? Is there a plan to document ConTeXt? At least the basics, updating old manuals and adding the most important “features” or changes. Cheers. Manuel

framed and placefigure
by DesdeChaves 27 Oct '14

why this happens: After a specification of the foregroundcolor the figures are behind a framed color. \setupframed[offset=2mm, corner=round, background=color, backgroundcolor=blue, foregroundcolor=yellow, frame=off, strut=no, align=normal, location=top, width=\textwidth] For example, is this case my \placefigure[right,nonumber,2*hang] {}{\externalfigure[ostrichhead][width=5cm]} is behind a yellow framed rectangle.

Resume source
by Kip Warner 26 Oct '14

26 Oct '14

Hey list, I've gone through the letter module manual below: <http://bitbucket.org/wolfs/correspondence/downloads/correspondence.pdf> On p.130 of 148, as indexed by my renderer, there is a great looking resume template that is blue and black on light grey. I've tried looking for the source of this everywhere, including in the book's, but I can't seem to find it. Can anyone help me? -- Kip Warner -- Senior Software Engineer OpenPGP encrypted/signed mail preferred http://www.thevertigo.com

bug sorting index?
by Pablo Rodriguez 25 Oct '14

25 Oct '14

Dear list, I have the following sample: \starttext \index{tipografía digital} \index{tipografías} \index{idioma+de un pasaje} \index{idioma+del documento} \completeindex \stoptext No matter what language I choose (en, de, nl, es, fr), sorting order is wrong: "tipografía" comes before "tipografías" and "de" comes before "del". I’m afraid this may be a bug introduced in latest beta from 2014.10.22 16:23. Many thanks for your help, Pablo -- http://www.ousia.tk

Re: [NTG-context] korean unfonts "globbing path" error

Dear Hans, >> >> http://www.ktug.org/xe/index.php?_filter=search&mid=KTUG_QnA_board&search_t… >> >> I hope that you have the solution. > > not for latex … afaik it uses its own font database > Yes, the above solution is not for latex but for Lualatex. One of my colleague who try to run Lualatex(TeXlive 2013 in the window 7) first time had a similar problem. After removing Korean fonts like penhl.ttf, taenmr.ttf from the system font file directories, she can run Lualatex. Someone registered those files in the blacklist which LuaTeX referred to when it scans fonts, and succeed to make font db. Anyway, it is not the ConTeXt problem. It is because of the problematic fonts. Thank you for your concern. Best regards, Dalyoung

Font-loading
by Willi Egger 23 Oct '14

23 Oct '14

Hi all, I know that there was earlier a thread dealing with this subject…. However I needed to typeset a title in a typeface with a medieval look. One of the choices is “Maximilian” a ttf font (free font). I put the font in texmf-fonts/data. The mtxrun --script font --list --info --all maximilian gives: mtx-fonts | mapping : maximilian mtx-fonts | fontname: maximilian mtx-fonts | fullname: maximilian mtx-fonts | filename: Maximilian.ttf mtx-fonts | family : maximilian mtx-fonts | weight : normal mtx-fonts | style : normal mtx-fonts | width : normal mtx-fonts | variant : normal mtx-fonts | subfont : mtx-fonts | fweight : conflict: book mtx-fonts | mtx-fonts | gsub features: mtx-fonts | mtx-fonts | feature script languages mtx-fonts | mtx-fonts | tlig all all mtx-fonts | trep all all I tried in a classical way: \starttypescript[serif][medieval] \definefontsynonym[serif][file:Maximilian][features=default] \stoptypescript \starttypescript[medieval] \definetypeface[Maximilian][rm][serif][medieval][default] \stoptypescript \usetypescript[medieval] \setupbodyfont[Maximilian,rm,12pt] I tried also the new approach \definefontfamily[Medieval][rm][Maximilian][features=default] \setupbodyfont[Medieval,12pt] In both cases I end up with an empty page, because the font is not fount. — What do I miss? Kind regards Willi

Re: [NTG-context] korean unfonts "globbing path" error

> fonts > names > globbing path 'c:/windows/fonts/**.ttf' > > fonts > names > identifying system font files with suffix 'TTF' > > mtx-context | fatal error: return code: 1>Exit code: 1 > It seems to me that there is a problem to make a font db. Try “mtxrun unbatang.ttf” in the terminal to see if it locates the unbatang.ttf file. If it doesn’t locate it, then “sudo mtxrun —generate” in the terminal and try “mtxrun unbatang.ttf” once more. If you don’t get any output, you need to create the font db. Because of some Korean fonts in the system font files(Window system), it can not create font db. It is reported in the Q&A in KTUG with the solution. Please search using the key word “LuaLaTeX”. http://www.ktug.org/xe/index.php?_filter=search&mid=KTUG_QnA_board&search_t… I hope that you have the solution. Best regards, Dalyoung

Hi Hans, > mtxrun --script font --reload --force --trackers=* > > and see at what font it aborts? Thanks a lot. Interestingly the command ran without abort, and names.tma and names.tmc are successfully created. After the creation of names.tma and names.tmc, the example by NY Park works fine again. Best, Akira
