ePub from project?
by Henning Hraban Ramm 22 Dec '11

22 Dec '11

I thought I could try ePub with a current book project. export.xml from my product looks good and contains "everything" from the components, but the xhtml file contains only a ToC - and thus, ePub is empty. Further, it seems like arguments of \settaggedmetadata like name, title, author are just ignored in ePub. ePubReader in Firefox says (translated) """ XML processing error: "Junk" after document element Address: file:.../epub/4/OPS/example.xhtml Line Nr. 173, Column 1:<section detail="chapter" location='aut:2'> """ Adobe Digital Editions shows no error, just an empty book. With the following small example, I get at least an unstyled body text: """ \setupbackend[export=example.xml,xhtml=example.xhtml] \settaggedmetadata[name=Hraban,title=Example,author=Hraban,version=0.1] \setupinteraction[state=start,color=,contrastcolor=, title=Test,subtitle={}, author={Henning Hraban Ramm}] \setupexport[bodyfont=12pt,hyphen=yes] \starttext \startchapter[title=Test] \input tufte \stopchapter \stoptext """ Hm, the xhtml file doesn’t look like HTML at all, and even styling the existing tags in CSS doesn’t affect the output. If I change <sectiontitle> to <xhtml:h2>, it’s reckognized. In short: - xhtml is just an xml without html tags - xhtml doesn’t contain content of components Hraban --- http://www.fiee.net/texnique/ http://wiki.contextgarden.net https://www.cacert.org (I'm an assurer)

new beta
by Hans Hagen 22 Dec '11

22 Dec '11

Hi, I uploaded a new beta. The most prominent changes are that the frames macro, mp graphics, and scaling code has been cleaned up, sped up and namespaced. of course some bug can have crept in. Don't expect wonders with respect to speedup although it can make some difference when multiple backgrounds, of large natural/extreme tables are used. Of course raw output of pages (as with \dorecurse{1000}{test\page}) is not really a good measure but at last the overhead gets more and more minimized which is also good for tracing. This version might also solve some of the reported problems with page imposition (as the page-* modules are being cleaned up buglets cna be introduced .. nothing really changes there apart from speedup and namespacing).

Header bottomframe on first page of document
by Peter Park Nelson 22 Dec '11

22 Dec '11

Hello, If I have a bottom frame under my page headers, is it possible to have NO bottom frame under the header on ONLY the first page of a document? I am using: \setupbackgrounds[header][text][bottomframe=on] to put a border line underneath all my page headers. I want to have a header on the first page of my document but no line under it (the first page header will be unique). I want to keep the vertical space for the header, so \setupheader[text][state=high] is not what I need. The reason for this is to have the option of placing a "banner" over the document title using the header. Some documents will need this, and some will not. So, if the extra banner is needed, I will put it in the first page header, and if not I will leave that header blank. The unique header will be set using: \definetext[firsthead][header][First Page Header Banner Text] % or leave it blank... \setuphead[title][header=firsthead,...] Thanks, PPN -- Peter Park Nelson peter.park.nelson(a)gmail.com

Thank you, Luigi. I see that Context runs from the command line. The problem is that it does not run from emacs context-mode. How can I fix this?

Hello Marek, > Hi Mr. Gundlach > .Just want to say Im very dissapointed that no installing package of ConText exist. I mean like you install things in Win – two cliks and Done! > I was studying ConText whole afternoon and i liked it – But – im very very sick of this kind of installing. It just makes people like me to hate the whole thing about trying something else then MS Word. I was eager to learn this ConText ant than BIIIIIIG! Frustration cause i could not run it. All those versions of packages - i wanted to shoot myself. > > Yea, i know you dont get paid for this, BUT - come on Mr. Gundla. Is it that hard to make one ABSOLUTE DUMMY PACKAGE (you geeks can call it how you want i know you like to use word dummies for people who are lesser geeks than you :) ) two cliks and lalala! Hello Word! You save afternoon to many other people :D Just think about it, ok? Well, ConTeXt _is_ hard to install. First you have to sacrifice one of your family members. Afterwards, you need to hum the magic chant in order to open your spirit. After you have done that, please draw a circle around your computer and put candles on it, making the shape of a pentagram. Now, and this is important, go six times clockwise around that circle, six times counter clockwise and then six times clockwise again. After that, turn on your computer and start your webbrowser and go to http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Simple_Windows_Installation and downlaod the installer. Sincerely your Mr. Gundla

Problem with \insertpages
by Mari Voipio 22 Dec '11

22 Dec '11

Hello! After I got my layers (i.e. covers) organize, I ran into some postprocessing problems. This used to work, I've last used it just a month ago. \setuppapersize[A5][A4] %individual page A5 size, print size A4 \setuparranging[2UP,rotated] %makes a single booklet when folded (duplex printing!) \setupoutput[pdf] \setuplayout [backspace=0pt, topspace=0pt, width=middle, height=middle, location=middle, header=0pt, footer=0pt] \setuppagenumbering[alternative=doublesided] \starttext \insertpages [pr-33-gp.pdf][width=0pt] \stoptext [see also http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Including_pages_from_PDF_document] It no longer works, I just get a pdf with blank pages, even though the input pdf is fine. If I remember to tell my SciTe to "Process and Arrange", it definitely tries to arrange the pages, but something just goes wrong (the whole log is attached). First it goes "<pr-33-gp.pdf> pages > flushing realpage 51, userpage 51 <pr-33-gp.pdf> pages > flushing realpage 52, userpage 52 <pr-33-gp.pdf> pages > flushing realpage 53, userpage 53 <pr-33-gp.pdf> pages > flushing realpage 54, userpage 54 )" Then it does "system > 48.48 arranged at 48 system > 49.49 arranged at 49 system > 50.50 arranged at 50 system > 51.51 arranged at 51 system > 52.52 arranged at 52 system > 53.53 arranged at 53 system > 54.54 arranged at 54 system > 55.55 arranged at 55 system > 56.56 arranged at 56" And then: just blank pdf, 28 A4 portrait pages of nothing. It's quite possible it's my code that sucks and it shouldn't have worked in the first place, but I'd love to find out how to fix it. :-) It is not critical per se as I can do some stuff in Acrobat, but in the long run I'd better get this to work. Thanks, Mari

keep tabulate lines together

Since my imposition problem is hopefully solved for this year, let’s tackle the next one: My address book consists of a multipage tabulation, entries look like: \ML \NC\Name{Green, Martin}\NC\Email{greenhorn(a)gmx.de}\NC \Geburt{1979-01-01}\NC\NR \NC\Name{Green-Span, Martina}\NC\Email{greenspan(a)gmx.de}\NC \Geburt{1978-12-01}\NC\NR \NC\Strasse{Grünstraße 4}\NC\Ort{D-00321 Mainz}\NC\NC\NR \NC\Strasse{Heimatstraße 3}\NC\Ort{D-12345 Oberhofen}\NC\Telefon{+49 +1111-3456}\NC\NR \ML \NC\Name{Hagen, Hans}\NC(Pragma ADE)\NC\Email{info(a)pragma-ade.com}\NC\NR \NC\Strasse{Ridderstraat 27}\NC\Ort{NL-8061GH Hasselt}\NC\Telefon{+31 +38-4775369}\NC\NR \ML \NC\Name{Zappa, Frank}\NC\NC\Geburt{1940-12-21}\NC\NR \ML I’d like to allow page breaks only at the horizontal lines to keep whole address blocks together.
