Arranging bullets within tabulate and itemize
by context＠vivaldi.net 19 Jun '24

19 Jun '24

Hello, here is a simple code: ---- \definedescription[Mat] [headstyle=bi, text={Foo},alternative=serried,width_=fit,indenting_={yes,medium},indenting_=no,align_=left,indentnext_=no,hang_=none, ] \starttext \startMat \startitemize[packed,][] \starttabulate[|l|l|l|] \NI Aaa \NC Aa \NC\AR \NI Bbb \NC Bb \NC\AR \stoptabulate \stopitemize \stopMat \startMat \startitemize[packed_,joinedup_][afterhead=,] \head Ttt \par Tt \head Uuu \par Uu \stopitemize \stopMat \stoptext ---- which produces something like: Foo • Aaa Aa • Bbb Bb Foo • Ttt Tt • Uuu Uu I cannot find out how to arrange the tabulate bullets straight above those of itemize, so how to supress the left indeting, to get: Foo • Aaa Aa • Bbb Bb Foo • Ttt Tt • Uuu Uu How do I achieve this? TIA. Best regards, Lukas

digital signing in ConTeXt
by Pablo Rodriguez 19 Jun '24

19 Jun '24

Dear list, the latest version of LMTX can digitally sign PDF documents. It requires OpenSSL installed (since it does the crypto part). I have two issues that I would like to be tested by others. A sample certificate may be found at https://mailman.ntg.nl/archives/list/ntg-context@ntg.nl/message/ECSXLVMT3TM… (I sent it myself). Here is a sample document (actually provided by Hans): \setupinteraction[state=start] \definefield[signature][signed] \defineoverlay[signature][my signature] \starttext \startTEXpage[offset=1ts,frame=on,framecolor=darkblue] sign: \inframed[background=signature,framecolor=darkred] {\fieldbody[signature][width=3cm,option=hidden]} \stopTEXpage \stoptext After compiling the sample, you need to run: mtxrun --script pdf --sign --certificate=c.pfx --password=ABCabc doc.pdf Password will be prompted again ("ABCabc"), since it is an encrypted certificate (also for the public part). Could anyone confirm the following issues? 1. The signature I get is wrong, unless I apply this patch (https://mailman.ntg.nl/archives/list/dev-context@ntg.nl/message/T3OCKVZWTUT… [sent by myself to the devel list]). 2. I cannot get any signature display in Acrobat. Does any PDF viewer (I have tested this with pdfsig from poppler and MuPDF-GL) display the digital signature at all? Many thanks for your help, Pablo

extensibles not rendered
by Jacob Kauffmann 19 Jun '24

19 Jun '24

Dear list, thank you for the excellent Math in ConTeXt documentation! Some extensibles are not properly rendered in some viewers after the most recent update. The code below produces a pdf with only a few visible artifacts in Acrobat Reader. E.g. Safari or Preview render them correctly. If I remember correctly extensibles were properly rendered in Acrobat Reader before the update. Best wishes, Jacob \setupbodyfont[8pt] \startTEXpage[offset=none] $\overbracket{\hbox to 1cm{}}$ \blank $\fenced[brace]{\vbox to 1cm{}}$ \stopTEXpage

context / auctex problem?
by hanneder＠staff.uni-marburg.de 19 Jun '24

19 Jun '24

Apologies for this question, which is probably an auctex problem. I have a new install of everything (LinuX, emacs, texlive) and the latest (?) context (ConTeXt ver: 2024.05.27 18:16 LMTX) installed in a separate directory. Running context from the commandline works fine, so I guess I did not misspell the path, but when running "Context All" from emacs, the error is: ----- Running `ConTeXt' on `context-test' with ``context --once --nonstop context-test.tex'' /bin/sh: Zeile 1: context: Kommando nicht gefunden. TeX Output exited abnormally with code 127 at Mon Jun 17 14:03:03 ------ I don't think the .emacs is at fault, it worked before the reinstall and contains, for instance: (setq-default TeX-master t) (setq TeX-parse-self t) (setq TeX-auto-save t) (setq ConTeXt-Mark-version "IV") Any ideas welcome, Jürgen --- Prof. Dr. Juergen Hanneder Philipps-Universitaet Marburg FG Indologie u.

Combine \setupdelimitedtext with an author (define custom variable?)
by Gerion Entrup 18 Jun '24

18 Jun '24

Hi, I like to achieve something that looks like this: ``` \definedelimitedtext[extract][blockquote] \setupdelimitedtext [extract] [leftmargin=1.5pc, style={\italic}, before={\setupindenting[next]}, after={\blank[1ex] \hrule \blank[1ex] \startalignment[flushright] \tfx\italic{René Descartes} \stopalignment}] \starttext \startextract Cogito ergo sum. \stopextract \stoptext ``` So it should setup a quotation and mentions the author. However, here the author is hardcoded within the blockquote. I would like it to use like this: ``` \definedelimitedtext[extract][blockquote] \setupdelimitedtext [extract] [leftmargin=1.5pc, style={\italic}, before={\setupindenting[next]}, after={\blank[1ex] \hrule \blank[1ex] \startalignment[flushright] \tfx\italic{\getcustomvariable{author}} \stopalignment}] \starttext \startextract[author=René Descartes] Cogito ergo sum. \stopextract \stoptext ``` Is there an easy way to achieve that? I tried with \structureuservariable (like possible in \startchapter) but it does not work. Best, Gerion

Upgrading from 2021.03.05.20230120 -> 2023.05.05.20230730 breaks BibTeX footnotes
by Kip Warner 17 Jun '24

17 Jun '24

Hello list, I recently upgraded my distro release to Ubuntu Noble on one of my machines. The ConTeXt packages that were previously for 2021.03.05.20230120 were upgraded to 2023.05.05.20230730. Since the upgrade I've noticed my BibTeX footnotes that previously looked like this: https://imgur.com/vg7Xjd3.png Now look like this: https://imgur.com/I3hq6bM.png I haven't changed anything in the source of my document. This is how I typeset in my Environment.tex: % Select References.bib and name it the main database... \usebtxdataset[main][./References.bib] % Citation style... \usebtxdefinitions[apa] % Use our main dataset for citations... \setupbtx[dataset=main] \definebtxrendering[main][apa][dataset=main] % When listing all references use APS style... \definebtxrendering [list_all_references] [aps] [dataset=main, group=examples] \setupbtxrendering[main][ pagestate=start, continue=yes, numbering=yes] % Macro to put the citations as footnotes... \unexpanded\def\footnotecite{\dodoubleempty\domycite} \def\domycite[#1][#2]% {\ifsecondargument \footnote{\cite[alternative=entry,#1][main::#2]}% \else \footnote{\cite[alternative=entry][main::#1]}% \fi} Any help appreciated! -- Kip Warner OpenPGP signed/encrypted mail preferred https://www.thevertigo.com

line numbering respecting original lines
by Henning Hraban Ramm 17 Jun '24

17 Jun '24

When discussing verses or other texts that have distinct line breaking, I need line numbering to adhere to that, even if some lines are too long and need breaking. Is that possible? In my example below the 3rd line is too long and gets line numbers 3 and 4. Same problem with source code examples, i.e. \starttyping with numbering. I thought numbering=file (or \setuplinenumbering[method=file]) would address that, but apparently not. Hraban \mainlanguage[de] \setuppapersize[A7,landscape] \setuplayout[topspace=0mm,bottom=0mm,width=90mm,height=70mm] \setuppagenumbering[location=none,state=stop] %\setuplinenumbering[method=file] \starttext \startlinenumbering \startlines Und doch, wie viel wahnsinniger, einen Freund, weil ers in einer Kleinigkeit versah, die nur ein Mensch, mit dem gar nicht zu leben ist, ihm nicht verzeihen konnte, gleich dafür zu hassen und zu fliehen, wie den Ruso … \stoplines \stoplinenumbering % aus: C. M. Wieland, Horazens Satiren. Weimar 1786 (2. Aufl. 1804) \stoptext
