Sure, but it doesn't have any effect on my file: \def\typescriptfiles{type-athenian.tex} \usetypescript[AthenianGreek] \setupencoding[default=8r] \mainlanguage[de] \setupbodyfont[AthenianGreek,20pt] \enableregime[utf8] \starttext ± [greek text in UTF-8 characters] \stoptext Maybe Hans can help? Steffen P.S. The font used here is "athenian" from http://ist-socrates.berkeley.edu/~pinax/greekkeys/Atheniandownload.html

Re: [NTG-context] How to use PostScript font

None of the commands that I was told worked. I donT think its my installation. To my surprise, the following does not work at live.contextgarden.net. If you see the log file, it says that the TFM file not found. Even the server at contextgarden is missing the package that I am missing from my system \usetypescript[berry][ec] % or [8r] \setupbodyfont[pos] \starttext The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog. \stoptext

Typing in Polytonic Greek
by Steffen Wolfrum 19 Aug '04

19 Aug '04

Hi, I have a font for Polytonic Greek ("athenian") installed in my ConTeXt-set and save my tex-files with utf-8 encoding (in TeXShop). Now I want to typeset a text (latin characters) with quotes in Polytonic Greek. Work is much easier for me if I will type these qoutes directly in Polytonic Greek (therefore I have a special keyboard layout from "GreekKeys"). What should I write in my tex document so that ConTeXt understands the UTF-8 glyphs that I am typing with Polytonic Greek? Steffen Wolfrum

Is there a bug during pagination of external figures?

It seems that Context tries to output the filename of the external figure somewhere during pagination. Yet, the filename is not ment to appear inside the document! Does someone know how to work around this problem? Thanks for your attention, --Stefan

et~al. in m-bib
by Peter Münster 19 Aug '04

Dear Taco, a kind of feature request for the next release: "et al." is not language dependant, but nevertheless it would be nice (at least for the thesis of my brother), if this string wouldn't be hard-coded (just a macro as \bibetalname or similar).

Context in Portuguese
by Miguel Queiros 19 Aug '04

19 Aug '04

Hi ! I've been a Latex user for some time and I'm now trying to use Context to typeset some documents in portuguese using portuguese accentuated characters but I can't seem to get it working. Every time I use an accentuated character it simply doesn't shows up in the document. I'v read the docs but haven't found a solution to the problem. Can someone provide me a simple example on how to do it, or the problem I'm facing has to do with some kind of configuration that has to be done in Context ? I'v been trying to use Context using the tex iso available at pragma's website. Thank you, Miguel Queirós

\startenvironment \currentfile
by Peter Münster 19 Aug '04

Hello, isn't it redundant: \startenvironment filename \startproject filename \startproduct filename \startcomponent filename ?? Is this argument really needed? "\startenvironment xxx" seems to works too. Peter -- http://pmrb.free.fr/contact/ _____________________________________ FilmSearch engine: http://f-s.sf.net/
