OCProperties (mkiv)
by Peter Rolf 01 May '11

01 May '11

Hi Hans, using the 'Report PDF syntax issues'-preflight in Acrobat9 gives a warning about an 'Unexpected value for this key'. I used 'pdf-x4p.mkiv' from /texmf-context/tex/context/test/ as test file. Probably just a warning about a redundancy (see 'PDF Reference, version 1.7.pdf', p376), setting 'BaseState /ON' in combination with '/ON [ whatever] /OFF [whatever]'. Removing 'BaseState /ON' results in a flawless PDF. Regards, Peter

quotation marks for language latin
by Thomas A. Schmitz 01 May '11

01 May '11

Hi all, Hans, in lang-def.mkiv (line 623) and and lang-ita.mkii (line 101), we have \installlanguage % the same as italian [\s!la] [\c!rightquote=\lowerrightsingleninequote, \c!rightquotation=\lowerrightdoubleninequote, ... This can't possibly be right (is there a language which has “quote„ ?). I think the usual thing would be \installlanguage [\s!la] [\c!rightquotation=\upperrightdoubleninequote, \c!rightquote=\upperrightsingleninequote, ... Thomas

problem with printing pdf files (MKIV on Mac)
by Mojca Miklavec 01 May '11

01 May '11

Hello, I'm not sure if anyone will be able to help, but it doesn't hurt to ask. I'm using ConTeXt MKIV 2011.03.11 11:45 (I will try to upgrade first). When I try to print the document from Mac (Skim.app) to two different printers, I get pure junk on both of them (bold and italic fonts come out semi-ok, but regular doesn't). If I print an older document or if I compile the same document with MKII, the document prints out fine on the same printer. The document also prints out fine when printing from Linux. I'm using one network PostScript printer and one network printer that is most probably using PCL drivers and both generate junk. I'm using "palatino" typescript. Mac is well known for displaying Word-generated documents as almost-pure-junk (one gets a different font and screwed up kerning instead of the original font that one would see in Word or in generated PDF when opened with Adobe Acrobat; but I'm not sure if it is Apple or Microsoft that have buggy software in that case) and for crashing on documents using smooth shading patterns. Does anyone have any suggestion how I could figure out what is wrong with the document? I would like to figure out if it is LuaTeX's or Apple's fault that it behaves so weird. (Can I send a document to PostScript printer on specific IP from a Mac without having to use Apple's libraries for handling PDF?) Mojca

modules with no author
by Patrick Gundlach 01 May '11

01 May '11

Hi, the modules "Transliterator" and "Gantt (TikZ)" don't have an author or files. I think they can be removed from modules.contextgarden.net. Any opinion? Patrick http://modules.contextgarden.net/gantt-tikz http://modules.contextgarden.net/Transliterator

MathJax and ConTeXt?
by Otared Kavian 30 Apr '11

30 Apr '11

Hi all, As some of the gurus here may know, MathJax, http://www.mathjax.org allows one to display maths formulas typed in TeX (or LaTeX) and MathML to be correctly displayed on web pages. Many institutions are using MathJax on their site. Does anyone on the list have an idea about the possibility of including ConTeXt support in MathJax? Best regards: OK

mtxrun list?
by Hans van der Meer 30 Apr '11

30 Apr '11

Executing 'mtxrun' without arguments shows the list of commands. There one finds: mtxrun | ConTeXt TDS Runner Tool 1.30 mtxrun | mtxrun | --script run an mtx script (lua prefered method) (--noquotes), no script gives list Doing 'mtxrun --script' I expected to see a list of the available scripts. But this command prints nothing. Is this something to be repaired? Hans van der Meer
