by R. Bastian 06 Oct '09

06 Oct '09

Hello, i like the sansserif, 10 pt font. My texts are from time to time scattered (? parsemées) with maths expressions (A_i etc). How is it possible to get the sansserif font ? (now i write A$_i$ but it is not at the best ...) Thanks -- René Bastian www.pythoneon.org www.musiques-rb.org

Creating documents in a batch file
by Wolfgang Miurth 05 Oct '09

05 Oct '09

Hi, I tried to find out how to create pdf files from multiple sources in a batch file, but I could not find a solution. Always after the first document the batch files ends and no further documents are created. My Windows batch file looked like this (Every student has his own pdf file): >setlocal enabledelayedexpansion >call C:\Programme\context\tex\setuptex.bat C:\Programme\context >mtxrun.cmd --autogenerate --script context --batch --pdf student_1.tex >mtxrun.cmd --autogenerate --script context --batch --pdf student_2.tex >mtxrun.cmd --autogenerate --script context --batch --pdf student_3.tex >mtxrun.cmd --autogenerate --script context --batch --pdf student_4.tex I also tried texexec but without success. What am I doing wrong and how can I fix this? Thanks for your help. Wolfgang Murth

tex to txt/doc
by Ciro Soto 05 Oct '09

05 Oct '09

Is there any quick way to print the output of context in txt format? I could do: context-> pdf->txt, but may there is a direct way to do that...? I don't care about the formatting, it is just the text that I am interested in. The reason is that my editor does not understand context (or tex) so I send her txt (or doc) file for the editing. thank you Ciro

by Xan 04 Oct '09

04 Oct '09

Hi, Perhaps a simple question but how to put the symbol of the period in repeating numbers; for example 3,494949.... = 3,\what{49}. The symbol I refer is similar to \frown but in top of the numbers (like \hat) Thanks in advance, Xan.
