[luatex-fonts] fontloader/plain format broken in beta
by Philipp Gesang 01 Nov '13

01 Nov '13

Hi Hans, the fontloader (font-otn.lua, line 191) accesses the table nodes.disccodes which is not defined in luatex-basics-nod.lua. If I add that table (as in font-ini.lua), I get a different error, basically stating that various LM-fonts can’t be found (even if I put them in the current working directory). Regards, Philipp

Dear Hans, Thank you for your concern on Korean fonts. I run the given code without the problem. But the output are all black. I just modify the buffer because all the characters are appeared as '?' in the mail. I am running the ConTeXt whose version is 2013. 10.15. Is there anything I have to check? Thank you so much.

\startmathcases ... \stopmathcases
by Rudolf Bahr 31 Oct '13

31 Oct '13

Hello All! I order to design a genealogical table I found "\startmathcases ... \stopmathcases" in [1]. It is, what I need, at least partially, with a single left brace adjusting itself in height to the corresponding right text. I know that I'm misusing "mathcases" as my data are pure text and no formulae. But even worse, "mathcases" seem to have a centering environment which makes it difficult to adjust the data of father, mother, grandfather, grandmother and so on in there placement relativ to each other on the page. In the following simple code example there is to be seen, that I had to use \hskip and \vskip by trial and error to dock the second vbox with the first one. That's rather discouraging when thinking of all the rest of genealogical people in 6 generations. Is there a way to make "mathcases" more tame (i.e. without there behaviour to be centered) or do you suggest a complete other method?

About "natural tables"
by MANUEL GONZALEZ SUAREZ 30 Oct '13

30 Oct '13

Hello everyone. I like to compose tables using the method "Natural Tables" recommended "Contextgarden" but do not know how I have to configure to display only horizontal lines (not vertical). I send a minimal example: \starttext \starttable[|c|c|] \HL \NC Letters \NC Numbers \SR % or \NC\AR \HL \NC A \NC 1 \AR \NC B \NC 2 \AR \NC C \NC 3 \AR \HL \stoptable \stoptext How I could "translate" to a "natural table " this code? Thanks to all

nested linenotes
by Pablo Rodriguez 29 Oct '13

29 Oct '13

Dear list, I have the following sample: \newcounter\MyCounter \def\CritApp#1#2{\increment\MyCounter% \startlinenote[Varia:\MyCounter]{#1] #2}#1% \prewordbreak\stoplinenote[Varia:\MyCounter]} \starttext \startlinenumbering \CritApp{this is a first \CritApp{legibility}{how about a nested linenote?}}{variant} \stoplinenumbering \stoptext The first \CritApp works fine, but if a new one is introduced inside the main text from the nested linenote won’t be hyphenated and the line reference number is wrong (line 0). Is there a way to solve both issues? Many thanks for your help, Pablo -- http://www.ousia.tk

Testpage vs. indentation
by "H. Özoguz" 29 Oct '13

29 Oct '13

Hello together, normally I want intendation for new paragraphs, but not, if the paragraph is set on the next page by \testpage. See this minexample: \setupindenting[yes, 9pt,first] \starttext \input knuth \testpage[35] \input knuth \stoptext Or more general: No indentation of paragraphs, wich are the top-paragraphs of the page. Is that possible? Thanks, Huseyin

ConTeXt Group Journal 2012 Table of Contents
by Taco Hoekwater 29 Oct '13

29 Oct '13

Hi all, After a bit more of a delay even after the initial one-year delay, I am happy to report that the ConTeXt Group Journal for 2012 goes to the printer's today. This is the proceedings issue for the 6th ConTeXt meeting that took place in Breskens, The Netherlands on October 8-12, 2012. Contents ======== 5 Dayplan 7 CrafTeX — Mari Voipio 8 MetaPost: PNG Output — Taco Hoekwater The latest version of Metapost (1.80x) has a third output backend: it is now possible to generate PNG bitmaps directly from within Metapost. 10 Database publishing with the speedata Publisher — Patrick Gundlach 11 Minutes of the 2nd ConTeXt Group membership meeting — Willi Egger 13 MetaPost path resolution isolated — Taco Hoekwater A new interface in MPLib version 1.800 allows one to resolve path choices programmatically, without the need to go through the MetaPost input language. 19 Parsing PDF content streams with LuaTeX — Taco Hoekwater The new pdfparser library in LuaTeX allows parsing of external pdf content streams directly from within a LuaTeX document. This paper explains its origin and usage. 24 MFLua: Instrumentation of MF with Lua — Luigi Scarso We present MFLua, a MetaFont version which is capable of code instrumentation and has an embedded Lua interpreter that allows glyphs curves extraction and post-processing. We also show and discuss an example of a MetaFont source processed by MFLua to output an OpenType font. 36 Conference portfolio — Willi Egger In accordance to the conference's theme, a workshop for making a portfolio binder has been held. The portfolio was made so it could carry the papers for the conference, such as preprints of the proceedings, additional papers and the carpenter's pencil given to each participant. The construction is made from a single sheet of cardboard with folded flaps along three sides, so that it completely envelopes the content. The portfolio is held closed by a black elastic band. 41 Simple Spreadsheets — Hans Hagen Occasionally a question pops up on the ConTeXt mailing list where answering it becomes a nice distraction from a boring task at hand. The spreadsheet module is the result of such a diversion. As with more support code in ConTeXt, this is not a replacement for ‘the real thing’ but just a nice feature for simple cases. Of course some useful extensions might appear in the future. 52 Oriental TeX: optimizing paragraphs — Hans Hagen & Idris Samawi Hamid One of the objectives of the Oriental TeX project has always been to play with paragraph optimization. The original assumption was that we needed an advanced non-standard paragraph builder to Arabic done right but in the end we found out that a more straightforward approach is to use a sophisticated OpenType font in combination with a paragraph postprocessor that uses the advanced font capabilities. This solution is somewhat easier to imagine than a complex paragraph builder but still involves quite some juggling. 82 MlbibTeX and Its New Extensions — Jean-Michel Hufflen These last years, MlbibTeX's kernel functions have been reused and extended in order to put new programs about bibliographies into action. Examples are the hal program, allowing an open archive site to be populated, the mlbiblatex program, building bibliographies suitable for the biblatex package, the mlbibcontext program, doing the same task for ConTeXt documents. We show how all these programs are organised, and explain how some operations can be refined or extended. For a point of view related to efficiency, the programs mlbiblatex and mlbibcontext are written using Scheme only, so they are more efficient than analogous programs that would interpret a .bst bibliography style of bibTeX. 92 Demonstration of the ‘mlbibcontext’ Program — Jean-Michel Hufflen This short statement aims to sketch the broad outlines of the presentation performed at the 6th ConTeXt meeting. 94 Abstracts without papers 96 Participant list of the 6th ConTeXt meeting
