Convertnumber with \ref[number] fails in MkIV, works in LMTX
by Rik Kabel 06 Dec '22

06 Dec '22

Hello list, The following fails with ConTeXt ver: 2021.10.24 21:45 MKIV but works with the companion LMTX. The error message is:tex error > tex error on line 6 in file G:/TestConTeXt/convert.tex: ! Incompatible glue units , pointing to the second \convertnumber line. \definelabel[XX]%[text=,before=,after=,alternative=inright] \startTEXpage[offset=2em] abc\XX[xx]\par \ref[number][xx] · \convertnumber{r}{1} · \convertnumber{R}{\ref[number][xx]} \stopTEXpage In this case I am trying to display with roman numerals the number generated in the label created through \definelabel. Suggestions welcomed. -- Rik

TeXGyre Heros on Firefox
by juh 19 Oct '22

19 Oct '22

Dear all, there were some discussions on pdf viewers on the list and I know that things are not always fine. I now have a problems with the Firefox pdf viewer and TeX Gyre Heros. The font looks uneven in FF, no problems elsewhere. When I scroll into the pdf to set the display to 150% or more the font shows up just fine. So it seems to be a display problems with firefox. I tried several pdf versions no change. My configuration: \definefontfamily[mainfont][serif][texgyreheros] \definefontfamily[mainfont][sans] [textgyreheros] \definefontfamily[mainfont][mono] [texgyrecursor][features=none] \definefontfamily[mainfont][math] [texgyrepagellamath] \definefallbackfamily [mainfont] [rm] [Latin Modern Math] [scale=0.925, range=0x22C0] \definefontfeature[smallcaps][script=latn, protrusion=quality, expansion=quality, smcp=yes, onum=yes, pnum=yes] \setupalign[hz,hanging] \setupitaliccorrection[global, always] Is there anything I can do? And the is another issue: To my big surprise ArialBold MT is included into the file. I am using the current lmtx. If you want to see the effect, download the pdf. https://www.hostsharing.net/publikationen/vereinshandbuch/ Just click on "Anonym herunterladen" no need to register.

ConTeXt meeting 2022 – please register!
by Henning Hraban Ramm 04 Aug '22

04 Aug '22

Hi folks & friends, I’d like to remind you to register for the current ConTeXt meeting (September 12–18 in Germany), we must close registration in about two weeks, and my list is still rather short. https://meeting.contextgarden.net/2022/ If you registered early and got only an error message from the form, please register again. And please don’t think you could avoid a registration because everyone knows you’ll come (except Hans). Otherwise it’s normal that you got no response from me (sorry!). We have no Covid restrictions in Germany any more, even if the incidences are high, except that you must wear a mask in trains and are asked to in some other places. I’d ask you to test yourself before traveling. It would be nice if you would register also for online attendance, just for my information. Since the regular online meetup would be during the conference, we will drop that. Looking forward to seeing you soon, Hraban

bibliography problem
by Henning Hraban Ramm 03 Aug '22

03 Aug '22

Hi, Denis’ article in the CG journal uses the publications module with a .bib database. With ConTeXt LMTX 2022.05.11 all was well, with the current version (2022.07.27) it can’t find the entries of the database: open source > level 2, order 20, name 'dm-ligatures/dm-ligatures.tex' publications > adding bib data to set 'dmlig' from source 'dm-ligatures/references.bib' interface > macros > processed mkvi file '/Users/hraban/lmtx/tex/texmf-context/tex/context/base/mkiv/publ-imp-apa.mkvi', delta 94 interface > macros > processed mkvi file '/Users/hraban/lmtx/tex/texmf-context/tex/context/base/mkiv/publ-imp-apa.mkvi', delta 0 open source > level 3, order 21, name '/Users/hraban/lmtx/tex/texmf-context/tex/context/base/mkiv/publ-imp-apa.mkvi' close source > level 3, order 21, name '/Users/hraban/lmtx/tex/texmf-context/tex/context/base/mkiv/publ-imp-apa.mkvi' structures > bookmark: Automatic suppression of unwanted ligatures — Denis Maier structure > sectioning > part @ level 1 : 1 -> Automatic suppression of unwanted ligatures\doifsomething {Denis Maier}{ —\ }\IndexAuthor Denis Maier structures > bookmark: Introduction structure > sectioning > section @ level 3 : 1.0.1 -> Introduction fonts > defining > unable to define 'IBMPlexSansHebrew-regular' as 'dummy--5' publications > analyzing previous publication run for 'dmlig' publications > no entry 'taraborelli:beauty' found in dataset 'dmlig' publications > no entry 'knuth:texbook' found in dataset 'dmlig' publications > no entry 'duden' found in dataset 'dmlig' publications > no entry 'detailtypografie' found in dataset 'dmlig' publications > no entry 'butterick:practical-typography-ligatures' found in dataset 'dmlig' publications > no entry 'bringhurst:style' found in dataset 'dmlig' publications > no entry 'rafaeli:book-typography' found in dataset 'dmlig' But the entries do exist in the bib file, and a minimal example works. In both cases, the setup looks like: \usebtxdataset[dmlig][dm-ligatures/references.bib] \setupbtx[dataset=dmlig] \usebtxdefinitions[apa] \setupbtx[apa:cite][alternative=num] I don’t know what to look for. Any hints? Hraban

font fallbacks
by Henning Hraban Ramm 01 Aug '22

01 Aug '22

Hi, I thought I could use more than one fallback font, but as soon as I list fallbacks, they stop working. In my example, I’d like to take all missing glyphs from Segoe UI Symbols, and what’s still missing (emojis) from EmojiOneColor, preferably without specifying the exact range. Additionally, I want to replace the tilde ~ of LM Modern: """ \definefontfallback[seguiFB] [file:seguisym.ttf] [0x00000-0xFFFFF] [check=yes,force=no] \definefontfallback[emoneFB] [name:EmojiOneColor] [0x00000-0xFFFFF] [check=yes,force=no] % replace tilde in LM \definefontfallback[tildeFB] [file:seguisym.ttf] [0x0007E-0x0007E] [force=yes] \starttypescript [start] \definetypeface [start] [rm] [serif] [cambria] [default][fallbacks={seguiFB,emoneFB}] \definetypeface [start] [ss] [sans] [modern] [default][fallbacks={seguiFB,emoneFB}] \definetypeface [start] [tt] [mono] [modern] [default][fallbacks={seguiFB,tildeFB,emoneFB}] \definetypeface [start] [mm] [math] [modern] [default][fallbacks={seguiFB,emoneFB}] \stoptypescript \setupbodyfont[start,rm,12pt] \starttext \Omega\ (Omega) and \aleph\ (Aleph) \startbuffer[example] start missing characters: lmmono10-regular.otf 7 U+00327 ̧ COMBINING CEDILLA 7 U+00335 ̵ COMBINING SHORT STROKE OVERLAY 14 U+003B7 η GREEK SMALL LETTER ETA 7 U+021A9 ↩ LEFTWARDS ARROW WITH HOOK 350 U+02500 ─ BOX DRAWINGS LIGHT HORIZONTAL 98 U+02502 │ BOX DRAWINGS LIGHT VERTICAL 42 U+02514 └ BOX DRAWINGS LIGHT UP AND RIGHT 133 U+0251C ├ BOX DRAWINGS LIGHT VERTICAL AND RIGHT 154 U+02772 ❲ LIGHT LEFT TORTOISE SHELL BRACKET ORNAMENT 154 U+02773 ❳ LIGHT RIGHT TORTOISE SHELL BRACKET ORNAMENT 14 U+0278A ➊ DINGBAT NEGATIVE CIRCLED SANS-SERIF DIGIT ONE stop missing characters start missing characters: cambria.ttc 9 U+0278A ➊ DINGBAT NEGATIVE CIRCLED SANS-SERIF DIGIT ONE 9 U+0FFFD � REPLACEMENT CHARACTER stop missing characters start missing characters: cambriai.ttf 266 U+0276C ❬ MEDIUM LEFT-POINTING ANGLE BRACKET ORNAMENT 266 U+0276D ❭ MEDIUM RIGHT-POINTING ANGLE BRACKET ORNAMENT stop missing characters \stopbuffer \typebuffer[example] \startlines \getbuffer[example] {\ss\getbuffer[example]} \stoplines \tex{abra}\arg{...} \type{kadabra} \type{~~~} \stoptext """ What’s wrong?

Set up external figure for particular image type
by Thangalin 01 Aug '22

01 Aug '22

A document has a mix of SVG and PNG images. Changing the parameters for `\setupexternalfigure` affects both SVG and PNG images. Consider the following code: \setupexternalfigures[ order={svg,pdf,png,jpg}, location={local,default,global}, directory={images}, maxwidth=\textwidth, maxheight=0.4\textheight ] I'd like to change the `maxheight` option for only PNG images, such as: \setupexternalfigure[ method=png, maxwidth=\textwidth, maxheight=\textheight, ] However, this affects SVG images as well. How do you apply different external figure setups based on image type? Thank you!

The horizontal axis label of mwe below has 0.0 (showing tenths; pdf attached; filename is mwe.tex). I expected it to show -1, 0, 1, 2, 3, (integers only). Can this be formatted? % -1 1 % 0 1 % 0 2 % 1 1 % 2 1 % 2 2 % 2 3 % 2 4 % 3 1 % 3 2 \usemodule[m-graph] \startMPpage[instance=graph, offset=5mm] labeloffset:=3mm; draw begingraph(8cm,4cm); setrange(-1.5,0.5,3.5,5); picture symbol ; symbol := image(draw fullcircle scaled 5mm withcolor red;); gdata("mwe.tex", v, clearxy; glabel(symbol,v1,v2) ; ); frame.bot shifted(0,-2mm) ; autogrid(otick.bot,) shifted(0,-2mm); endgraph; \stopMPpage Thanks!

Dear list, I would like to typeset two columns with different widths and no hyphenation. The columns in the output PDF overlap: https://live.contextgarden.net/cgi-bin/result.cgi?id=JnPVEM How to make the columns non-overlapping? My attempt is below.

Unwanted blank page before page figures when using non-placed (hidden) heads
by cryo shock 29 Jul '22

29 Jul '22

Hey there, I am having trouble understanding some basic blank page behavior. I hope that somebody of you can point me in the right direction. My primary goal is to create application documents consisting of various .tex components and with external PDF pages inserted as well. The second part of that goal is to use multiple-level bookmarking as well. Bookmarking should look like this: - Letter - Resume - Testimonies -- Testimony A -- Testimony B -- Testimony C In the following MWE you can see my progress along with some notes to help understanding. There are two questions, I'd wish could be answered: 1. Why does TeX insert a blank page before a pagefigure I enclose within a (hidden) head? 2. Can the \bookmark[list]{text} command be somehow used for multi-level bookmarking? While the first question would make up for a more consistent solution, the second question would do the job as well. I hope some of you can enlighten me. Cheers, k %%% START of MWE \definehead[VisiSection][section] \setuphead[VisiSection][number=no] \definehead[InvisiSection][VisiSection] \setuphead[InvisiSection][placehead=no] \definelist[CustomBMarks] \setupinteraction[state=start] \placebookmarks[VisiSection,InvisiSection,CustomBMarks] \startcomponent * % not a product, no \startVisiSection[title={Custom Section A}] Text of Custom Section A \stopVisiSection \page \startVisiSection[title={Custom Section B}] Text of Custom Section B \stopVisiSection \startInvisiSection[title={Hidden Custom Section A}] Text of Hidden Custom Section A \stopInvisiSection \page \startInvisiSection[title={Hidden Custom Section B}] Text of Hidden Custom Section B \stopInvisiSection \page TEST\bookmark[CustomBMarks]{Start of Teststack} \dorecurse{800}{TEST }NEEDLE\bookmark[CustomBMarks]{Needle in the Teststack} \dorecurse{400}{TEST }TEST.\bookmark[CustomBMarks]{End of Teststack} %%% %%% So far no problems. %%% The following combination does the job, but I see no possibility %%% to arrange the "CustomBMarks"-list in multi-levels. %%% \page \startstandardmakeup \filterpages[{test.pdf}][1]\bookmark[CustomBMarks]{Pagefigure} \stopstandardmakeup %%% %%% So the following method would be the best choice to work with %%% multi-level bookmarks.
