for each script a different font
by Peter Schorsch 07 Dec '10

07 Dec '10

Hi all, is it possible to mix severel fonts (for each script one font)? Regarding to some fragments of the wiki I tried: \setupdirections[bidi=global] \definefontfeature[cyrl][script=cyrl] \definefontfeature[brai][script=brai] \definefontfeature[arab][script=arab] \starttypescript [serif] [vollkorn] \definefontsynonym [Serif][name:vollkornregular] \definefontsynonym [Serif][name:doulossil][feature=cyrl] \definefontsynonym [Serif][name:scheherazade][feature=arab] \defomefpmtsynonym [Serif][name:sechspunktbraille][feature=brai] \stoptypescript \definetypeface[fliesstext][rm][serif][vollkorn] \setupbodyfont[fliesstext,rm,11pt] \starttext Regular Еупгдфк цшкв уы more test text a ُءشةحمث and continue latin script ⠇⠤⠧⠬⠀⠟⠢⠭. \stoptext But the last \definefontsynonym overrides the entire unicode space and not only the part regarding to the related script. Is the mechanism I tried in ConTeXt possible?

Widgets color option not working with Mark IV
by Reviczky, Adam 07 Dec '10

07 Dec '10

Hi The color option in setupfield for widgets is ignored and always gives me black text with Mark IV (see: MarkIV.pdf compiled with a recent ConTeXt minimals). The attached example (widgets.tex) with Mark II however makes the correct color, in this case red, as you can see in (MarkII.pdf) compiled on live.contextgarden.net (aka with Mark II). The macro in question is: --- \setupfield [ShortLine] [label,frame,horizontal] [offset=4pt,height=fit,framecolor=green,background=screen,backgroundscreen=.80] [height=18pt,width=80pt,align=middle,background=screen,backgroundscreen=.90,frame=off] % color=name does not work with MARK IV [height=18pt,width=80pt,color=red,align=right,style=type,background=screen,backgroundscreen=.90,frame=off] --- On the same subject, is it possible in any way to make a custom style for the entry form text? The style option of setupfield just allows: "normal bold slanted boldslanted type", but I would like to change the size of the text-entry to eg. tfb or tfc. (By giving size commands to the style option the first form entry changes to that size but it reverts on the subsequent entries to the normal size.) Regards Adam

Hello Hans, I've downloaded the newest beta, but \comments still don't work. Besides of that there is a curious indenting problem with delimited text definitions (and floats). I will attach some test files. Thank you in advance Andreas

Font sizes, vertical spacing, footnote symbols
by Nicola 06 Dec '10

06 Dec '10

Hi, I have a set of specifications for a document and I am having some problems implementing it. I am using MKIV from TeX Live 2010. I have some difficulty with these requirements in particular: 1) title: 17pt, boldface, capital letters; 12pt spacing before and 3pt spacing after the title; Now I use \setuphead[title][align=middle,style={\bfd\cap},before={},after={}] How can I ensure that the font size is exactly 17pt? How to I specify precise vertical spacing? 3) All § must be indented 1.25cm; \setupindenting[1.25cm,yes,first] But the first § of each Section is not indented. 4) footnote symbol: * I use \setupnote[footnote][numberconversion=set 3] but I get stars instead of asterisks. Can you please help me with these? Nicola
