How to override the print resolution
by Cecil Westerhof 05 Jul '11

05 Jul '11

When using \externalfigure it uses the print resolution for putting the graphic into the document. Until now all my graphics had a resolution of 300x300, but I just got one with a much lower one, which blew up in my document. I just set the print resolution to 300x300 and everything is fine again, but is there a way to override the printer resolution? -- Cecil Westerhof

Changing the colors of a button
by Cecil Westerhof 05 Jul '11

05 Jul '11

I am trying the following: \button[backgroundcolor=darkgray,framecolor=black,framecorner=round]{Go Back}[PreviousJump] The parameter framecolor works (I tried it with green). Framecorner works also, but backgroundcolor not. How can I change the background and text color of the button? Also would it not be better when clicking on this button, the highlighting also works with rounded corners? -- Cecil Westerhof

I have read it, but there is no answer of my question. I know, that I can use "columns" instead of "columnset". It is not in my interest to find other solutions for this Problem, rather I wish to know: is it possible to use different numbers of columns on the same page if I use columnset! > It?s either \startcolumns[n=2] or \startcolumnset[your_name_of_setup] > > > bla bla bla > > \column > > \column works only within columnsets > > > bla bla bla > > \stopcolumn > > \startcolumns ... \stopcolumns > XOR > \startcolumnset ... \stopcolumnset > > > > > b) text text text text > > > > The mixing of a) and columnset is o.k. > > > > The mixing of columnset and b) wil produce a new page with b) on the > > second page, where b) can be normal text or another columnset. > > > That doesn?t answer your question, though...

Would Multiple Processes Cause: luatex: execution interrupted
by Raymond LeClair 05 Jul '11

05 Jul '11

I run context in a task queue with four worker processes. It is possible that context is invoked simultaneously to process distinct input files by tasks running in separate worker processes. I see periodic fatal errors, as follows: mtx-context | fatal error: no return code, message: luatex: execution interrupted However, the same input files can be processed by context directly without errors. Is it possible that context running in simultaneous but separate processes conflict? This is LuaTeX, Version beta-0.70.1-2011051923 (rev 4277) ConTeXt ver: 2011.05.18 18:04 MKIV fmt: 2011.7.2 int: english/english

Fifth ConTeXt meeting, September 2011, France
by Arthur Reutenauer 05 Jul '11

05 Jul '11

Hello everyone, This must be the second thread I initiate this year on the list, but unlike my previous post (http://www.ntg.nl/pipermail/ntg-context/2010/048296.html) this is actually serious. I hereby announce the next ConTeXt meeting, that will take place on the island of Porquerolles off the coast of the French Riviera, from Monday, September 19th, 2011, to Saturday, September 24th. The conference venue has been pre-booked for these dates, so this is firm. Of course, there is yet nothing like a set program at this moment, so we're expecting your proposals (there will be a formal call for papers later). Watch this page: http://meeting.contextgarden.net/2011/ Registration is not yet open, but will be in a few weeks. The fee is notably higher than it was for the previous ConTeXt meetings (see http://meeting.contextgarden.net/2011/fee.shtml) I'm sorry about that, but that is the best I can do in this place, short of feeding on black roots and camping in the woods or on the beach (which is forbidden anyway on the island, it's a protected area apart for the village). But food will instead be excellent, obviously, and wine is included in the price of the meals (that was actually one of the first things I was told by the people at the conference venue). See you in Porquerolles! Arthur

[NTG-context]Make a larger trademark?
by seasoul 05 Jul '11

05 Jul '11

I konw the registered trademark can get from \registered, or simply add ® in MKIV. But it seems the symbol is very small, appreaing in the superscript. How to make it in a normal text size, just as \copryright or ©.

two statements or one?
by Hans van der Meer 05 Jul '11

05 Jul '11

In lxml-tab.lua I find near the beginning the line: local trace_entities = false trackers.register("xml.entities", function(v) trace_entities = v end) Shouldn't there be a ; or newline between the two statments? Hans van der Meer

context.labeltext(...)
by Willi Egger 05 Jul '11

05 Jul '11

Hi all, experimenting with context.labeltext... My question is how can I tweak the context.labeltext(text) command at the lua-side to make ConTeXt to typeset the labeltext starting with an uppercase letter? e.g. if "text" contains "january" to display "January"? KR Willi

' not working anymore
by Hans van der Meer 04 Jul '11

04 Jul '11

Could it be that in xml-processing ' and friends are dead? Where formerly these were treated correctly, now from "'" there results "apos". I seem to remember that this was an earlier problem, solved in the meantime and now popping up again. Hans van der Meer
