Math setup with Times (Termes)
by Vyatcheslav Yatskovsky 28 Nov '09

28 Nov '09

Hello Gurus, Please, please, please! I need your help badly. The problem is with math font setup. If I use default math font, two problems arise: 1) Greek letters are slanted, while they supposed by our standards to be straight. 2) Cyrillic does not work in math, while some indexes are in Ukrainian. I also try to setup Times New Roman (from Windows) to replace default math font. This would be perfect solution for me, but I've lost completely. For my current point, I found that my TimesNR typescript behaves just like Gyre-Termes, so you can experiment on the latter (without need of Windows). This is my minimal example (see attachment also): \usetypescript[termes]\setupbodyfont[termes, 14pt] \starttext Така система рівнянь має вигляд: $это мат. текст this this math text$ \startformula\left\{ \matrix{ 2 = a \cdot {2^2} + b \cdot 2 + c; \hfill \cr 1 = a \cdot {3^2} + b \cdot 3 + c; \hfill \cr 2a \cdot 2 + b = 0. \hfill \cr} \right.\stopformula Вирішуючи цю систему рівнянь, можна отримати всі три коефіцієнти: $c = - 2$; $a = - 1$; $b = 4$. \stoptext The main problem is that Latin letters in math are not slanted at all! I only found that some tricky conversion is done by original-youngryu-tx.map , but it's far beyond my understanding to fix something in it. Best regards, Vyatcheslav

are typescripts really working in mkiv?
by Bernhard Rosensteiner 28 Nov '09

Hello all, after writing a typescript i get never the results in my document as expected. Please have a look in the attachment. When i do \showbodyfont[12pt] there is my rm typeface (MinionPro) in the row \tt visible (column \tfx), in \showbodyfont[13pt] this is not the case. Strangely enough, the rm typeface is apart from that never visible in my document but should be. Instead there is the ss typeface. I´ve no clue whats going on here. Please help. best regards Bernhard

Hi Taco, I see that Wolfgang's fix for itemize indentation is not included in the new version. Was it forgotten or treated a 'hack'? (attached) > Hans released a new current context yesterday.

Hi @all, i´m new to context and so far i like it a lot more than messy latex. i try to write some mathematical proofs and have a layout in mind which i can´t implement in a nice way: i want to write the proofs in a tree-like structure, where a 'subproof' for a statement is indented below the statement. it should be possible to do this on more than five levels, for more complex proofs, and across pages would be nice. Example:{ The mapping f is continous, because: f is a linear functional: it maps a vectorspace into its field and it is linear: f(a*x+b*y)=.. =a*f(x)+b*f(y). and its null space is closed: . . so by theorem xy, f is continous } i have tried vtop, which works ok, but looks ugly, and splitting proofs across multiple pages is a pain. is there a better way to do this? tobias
