Set PDF TrimBox
by Henning Hraban Ramm 27 Aug '15

27 Aug '15

Hi Hans, in May Harald König asked about setting the TrimBox value in PDFs and provided even a patch for lpdf-mis.lua; you promised to look into that, see http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.tex.context/91544/ If there’s only one paper size (from \setuppapersize), TrimBox is the same as CropBox. If there’s a second paper size (like from \setuppapersize[A4][B4]), TrimBox is the first. At least if there’s "marking=on|color|..." in \setuplayout, please also set BleedBox, even if we can’t influence the bleed value. Would be nice if there would be an option to let CropBox be the same as TrimBox or BleedBox. We don’t need ArtBox (in PDF/X it must not differ from TrimBox, if defined). Could you please implement this? Should be really easy… I’m tired of fixing the boxes in Acrobat every time. Thank you very much!

25 Aug '15

ConTeXt version: 2015.08.21 19:57 When the «page» position key is used, the figure numbers do not match their order in the document. In the following example, Figure 2 precedes Figure 1. \starttext \placefigure[page][]{} { \externalfigure[nop][width=0.5\textwidth] } \placefigure[][]{} { \externalfigure[nop][width=0.5\textwidth] } \stoptext Regards, Andreas Becker

How to prevent sentence-case arttitle in the bibliography?
by Andreas Becker 25 Aug '15

25 Aug '15

I seek to prevent any modification of the capitalization of article titles in the bibliography. What do I need to change in the ConTeXt code to achieve this? The other citation styles I tried besides APA also feature lowercasing. I am aware of a workaround: Enclosing the capital letters in the .bib file with curly brackets. However, I would prefer a method that does not involve editing the .bib database. I use Mark IV. My approach was to edit /usr/share/texmf-dist/tex/context/bib/bibl-apa.tex, however, I could not find a way to locate or modify the macro \insertarttitle. Regards, Andreas Becker

\writebetweenllst not working for frontmatter material?
by robheus 24 Aug '15

24 Aug '15

hello list, I want a TOC in which there is a blank line AFTER the first chapter in the TOC and BEFORE the last chapter in the TOC. (other chapter entries in the TOC don't have blank lines between them). I can achieve this with: \writebetweenlist[chapter]{\blank} but unfortutaly for chapter in frontmatter the above method does not produce a blank line in the TOC. Anyone has a clue as why not? Greetings, Rob

boxedcolumns ruins framed
by dr. Hans van der Meer 24 Aug '15

In \boxedcolumns text a framed test gets extra (unwanted) depth (first example). This does not happen in \simplecolumns (second example). See the ABCD-boxes in the minimal example. Downloaded the latest beta: ConTeXt ver: 2015.08.24 10:53 MKIV beta fmt: 2015.8.24 int: english/english \starttext \startboxedcolumns[n=3] \framed{ABCD}\blank\input knuth \stopboxedcolumns \blank \startsimplecolumns[n=3] \framed{ABCD}\blank\input knuth \stopsimplecolumns \stoptext

Expand a part of TOC
by Eric Détrez 24 Aug '15

24 Aug '15

hello Here is my problem : I wish to write a TOC at the beginning of each chapter (that I can do). But I want it to write every chapter and only the sections and subsections of the current chapter. Like, at the head of chapter 3 (the style is not relevant) Chapter 1 ................................ 1 Chapter 2 ................................ 15 Chapter 3 ................................ 23 3.1 ...............................23 3.2 ...............................26 3.3 ...............................29 3.3.1 .............................29 3.3.2 .............................33 3.3.3 .............................36 Chapter 4 ................................ 38 I tried to combine 2 lists with differents criterium but it doesn't seems to work. Thank's for any indication ; I'll write the result in the wiki. -- Eric Détrez Informatique Lycée Faidherbe, Lille http://eric-detrez.fr
