Again Cambria after updating to latest beta
by Willi Egger 09 Jun '11

09 Jun '11

Hi all, Yesterday evening I was quite happy that after deleting and regenerating the cache and the formats I had Cambria up and running. This morning I updated Context to the latest beta. - Eventhough I generated the formats manually with context --make, I get the problem referred to yesterday. What I get you can see in the by the list administrator released mail from yesterday. I am stymied. Willi

Getting arguments by Lua
by Procházka Lukáš Ing. - Pontex s. r. o. 09 Jun '11

09 Jun '11

Hello, when I run context by e.g.: context.exe Source.mkiv --result=Result.pdf --mode=Mode is it possible to access the command line arguments from Lua? I'm aware that modes are accessible by 'tex.modes' ('tex.modes.Mode' gives 'true' in this case); but I'd need to get also the source file name ("Source.mkiv") and the option ("--result" -> "Result.pdf"). Is it possible anyhow? Best regards, Lukas -- Ing. Lukáš Procházka [mailto:LPr@pontex.cz] Pontex s. r. o.

It has been suggested that Context can create this format, which is required by some printers for color work. Any info on X/1-a:2001? -- John Culleton "Create Book Covers with Scribus" www.lybrary.com/create-book-covers-with-scribus-p-74177.html

\fullexpandtwoargsafter in MkIV
by Aditya Mahajan 08 Jun '11

08 Jun '11

\fullexpandtwoargsafter is not defined in MkIV. As a result, \processpage does not work. Minimal example: \setuphead[section][before={\pagetype[section]}, page=yes] \processpage[section][yes] \starttext \dorecurse{10}{\section {Test \recurselevel} \dorecurse{10}{\input knuth \endgraf}} \stoptext This works in MkII but not in MkIV.

Random selection of a word in a set with lua and mkiv
by Otared Kavian 08 Jun '11

08 Jun '11

Hi all, Assuming that we have a set of words or expressions, say {Maths, Physics, Algebra, Analysis, Chemistry, Geometry, Wave equation, Schrödinger equation} is it possible to write a lua function, named for instance randomselectword which returns one of the words or expressions selected at random in the above set? Indeed this is intended to be used in a TeX file processed with mkiv. Thanks in advance for any idea and help. Best regards: OK

Context.exe and --result=...
by Procházka Lukáš Ing. - Pontex s. r. o. 08 Jun '11

08 Jun '11

Hello, I have the following situation. One source file is to be converted by Ctx normally and secondly with a special mode, e.g. "--mode=PageOneOnly". I'd like to get two result with: (1) Context.exe source.mkiv -> should give 'Source.pdf', (2) Context.exe source.mkiv --mode=PageOneOnly --result=Source-Pg1.pdf -> to give 'Source-Pg1.pdf'. The problem is that the option "--result=..." just renames the result; it means, if the 'Source.pdf' has been created by (1), it would be OVERWRITTEN by (2), as (2) normally processes 'source.mkiv' to 'source.pdf' in the first phase and renames it after. So the question is - is there a better way which would PRESERVE the <file>.pdf if <file>.mkiv is to be processed and '--result=<another-file>' is being used? Or (question for developers) - wouldn't be better to work directly with an output stream(s) name based on '--result=...' option, and to take the source file name for the output stream name ONLY in case that '--result=...' was not specified? (This would also mean to create other support file(s), like 'Source-Pg1.log', 'Source-Pg1.tuc' - IMHO this would be OK.) Best regards, Lukas -- Ing.

math in antp with MKIV
by Mojca Miklavec 08 Jun '11

08 Jun '11

Hello, I'm trying to use \usetypescript[antykwa-poltawskiego] \setupbodyfont[antykwa-poltawskiego,10pt] \starttext \eTeX \stoptext but it fails miserably. An easy workaround is to use greek letters, but also the whole math is somewhat broken. In MKII the font would fall back on Latin Modern in case that there are no math glyphs, but ConTeXt MKIV complains about ! Math error: parameter \Umathquad\displaystyle is not set. system > tex > error on line 6 in file a.tex: Math error: parameter \Umathquad\displaystyle is not set ... What would be the remedy for that? (Tested with TeX Live 2011.) Mojca
