Fwd: [garden] Error compiling context archive
by Taco Hoekwater 06 Sep '19

06 Sep '19

Hi Javier, I am on a Mac, but not using MacTeX and not having problems either, so I cannot help you myself. Therefore, I am forwarding your question to the ntg-context mailing list, which is a better place for actual ConTeXt-related questions than the ‘gardeners’ mailing list. maillist : ntg-context(a)ntg.nl <mailto:ntg-context@ntg.nl> / http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context <http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context> I hope someone can help you there.

Page number woes
by Mari Voipio 05 Sep '19

05 Sep '19

Hello! I have a document where I want the page numbers to start from the first page of chapter one. There's bunch of stuff before that, including a table of contents. This has worked fine: \startproduct prd-pr23 \startfrontmatter \setuppagenumber[stop] \component pr23-cover_front_web \component blank.tex \component c-contents \stopfrontmatter \startbodymatter \setuppagenumber[start] \component dtr_pg.tex \stopbodymatter \stopproduct However, now I need to switch to using a full-page pdf as cover page and changing that one line messes up with my page numbering, now TOC appears as page 1 and chapter one starts from page 2 in my test file. \startproduct prd-pr23 \startfrontmatter \setuppagenumber[stop] \startpagefigure[cover_vaisala_front_stripped]\stoppagefigure \component blank.tex \component c-contents \stopfrontmatter \startbodymatter \setuppagenumber[start] \component dtr_pg.tex % third chapter (DTR) \stopbodymatter \stopproduct What is it that I don't see? I tried moving the cover page before the \startfrontmatter, but that didn't change anything, TOC still starts on page 2 when it shouldn't have a page number at all. Why does switching the cover page from .tex to \pagefigure have such an effect and how can I counteract it? Mari (Obviously the real thing is a lot bigger, but the behaviour is the same. These are as close to MWE as I can get.)

Strange pagebreaks in LMTX
by Otared Kavian 05 Sep '19

05 Sep '19

Hi all, I have a document which typesets correctly in mkiv giving a PDF file with 7 pages, but the same document typeset with lmtx gives two pages with a strange pagebreak on the second page. Up to now, unfortunately, I could not create a minimal example to show this behaviour, so I put the files in the folder here: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/7rolmpe47njvy0l/AADmcILO0XgY3Sb6FC2dwMw-a?dl=0 and the PDF file obtained with mkiv is here https://www.dropbox.com/s/udbz0lulat9vum7/bug-pagebreaks-mkiv.pdf?dl=0 while the one obtained with lmtx is here https://www.dropbox.com/s/t6kge5lq8otju4y/bug-pagebreaks-lmtx.pdf?dl=0 Also, the TeX file typesets correctly with lmtx, if I don't use textrules, so I wonder whether there has been some changes in the way such textrules have to be used. As far as I can remember, two months ago the same file was typeset with lmtx without any problem. Thanks in advance for any help, Best regards: OK

Dear Hans, By adding “setuptex” in the task file, it runs well and makes a pdf output. { "label": "ConTeXt Compile", "type": "shell", "command": "source ~/ConTeXtLMTX/tex/setuptex;context '${file}'", "args": [], "group": { "kind": "build", "isDefault": true } }, Thank you. Best regards, Dalyoung

tikz problem with fontsize
by Martin Althoff 02 Sep '19

02 Sep '19

Hello all, I am trying to set the fontsize in a tikz image and that is failing. Strangely at the \node line with : ! Undefined control sequence. As the MWE stands now, it will fail. The now commented line works. main context file: /usr/local/context/tex/texmf-context/tex/context/base/mkiv/context.mkiv current version: 2019.08.24 22:42 The fontsize statement work in kTikz. What to do? Are there other ways to change font size in the Context TikZ? Thanks for any input! Martin \usemodule[tikz] \starttext \starttikzpicture \tikzstyle{label}=[minimum size=30mm,line width=2mm,draw=blue!50,align=center,font=\fontsize{60}{60}\selectfont] %\tikzstyle{label}=[minimum size=30mm,line width=2mm,draw=blue!50,align=center] \node[label] at (1,1) {88} ; \stoptikzpicture \stoptext
