No menu bar option for Adobe Reader
by Paul Schalck 01 May '19

01 May '19

Hi, I use the "Hide menu bar" option extensively in Adobe Acrobat Reader to get a cleaner interface. To this end, I usually hack lpdf-mis.lua after a ConTeXt upgrade to create a \setupinteractionscreen[option=nomenubar] switch. I wonder if it would be possible to add this little feature to the source code. Perhaps it can be useful to others as well. Greetings! Paul Attachment: patch + modified lpdf-mis.lua (from ConTeXt MkVI 2019.04.25)

underscore hyphenation in LMTX
by Pablo Rodriguez 01 May '19

01 May '19

Dear list, I have the following sample: \startluacode function document.addfunnyhyphen(tfmdata) local underscore = utf.byte("_") local char = tfmdata.characters[underscore] tfmdata.characters[0xFE000] = { width = 0, height = 0, depth = 0, commands = { { "right", -char.width }, { "down", char.depth }, { "slot", 1, underscore }, } } end utilities.sequencers.appendaction("aftercopyingcharacters","after", "document.addfunnyhyphen") \stopluacode \definehyphenationfeatures [whatever] [righthyphenchar="FE000] \setuphyphenation[method=traditional] \sethyphenationfeatures[strict, whatever] \setuppapersize[A10, lanscape] \starttext \startmakeup[standard] \hsize\zeropoint \tt definebodyfont \stopmakeup \stoptext I get the underscore hyphenation with latest ConTeXt beta (LuaTeX-1.10), but not with latest LMTX (LuaTeX-2.0). Am I missing something here? Many thanks for your help, Pablo -- http://www.ousia.tk

LMTX and system fonts
by Pablo Rodriguez 01 May '19

01 May '19

Dear list, fonts are my main problem using LMTX (on both Windows and Linux platforms). In Windows (I installed it again from scratch yesterday), system fonts (from c:/windows/fonts/) are simply ignored (I don’t know why). In Linux, a symlink in tex/texmf-fonts/ to the directory where fonts are stored doesn’t work either. The weird thing is that the ConTeXt Suite in both OSes works fine with system fonts or the mentioned symlink. What am I missing here? Many thanks for your help, Pablo -- http://www.ousia.tk

placetable and localfootnotes
by Otared Kavian 01 May '19

Hi Hans, It seems that there is a conflict between \startplacetable and \startlocalfootnotes: in the following example when the latter command (and its \stop counterpart) is commented out the table is placed correctly in the middle, while otherwise the table is not centered. Best regards: OK %%% begin localfootnotes-xtable.tex \startplacetable \startlocalfootnotes \startxtable \startxrow \startxcell Alpha \stopxcell \startxcell Beta\footnote{Footnote Here} \stopxcell \stopxrow \startxrow \startxcell Beta \stopxcell \startxcell Alpha\stopxcell \stopxrow \stopxtable \placelocalfootnotes \stoplocalfootnotes \stopplacetable %%% end localfootnotes-xtable.tex

file names lmtx
by John Kitzmiller 30 Apr '19

I just started testing with lmtx and this minor detail with different file names presented: fourth2.tex compiles to produce fourth2.pdf but fourth.2.tex compiles to produce fourth.pdf With mkiv I get fourth2.pdf and fourth.2.pdf Not a problem, just an observation.
