buggy cropbox and trimbox?
by Pablo Rodriguez 03 Oct '20

03 Oct '20

Dear list, I have the following sample: \setupinteractionscreen [width=fit] \starttext \null \stoptext The first command adds cropbox and trimbox different from the media box. See PDF code: 5 0 obj [ 0 0 595.2756 841.8898 ] endobj 6 0 obj << /CropBox 7 0 R /MediaBox 5 0 R /TrimBox 7 0 R >> endobj 7 0 obj [ 0 0 595.2756 841.8898 ] endobj As far as I understand, the width option from \setupinteractionscreen refers to the display of the document in the PDF viewer. Is this really so and there is an issue with this, or am I missing something? Many thanks for your help, Pablo -- http://www.ousia.tk

Protusion and spurios empty line
by Denis Maier 03 Oct '20

03 Oct '20

Hi, I'm getting emtpy lines after paragraph breaks, where the last character is just squeezed in. Looks like it has to do with the bidi mechanism. Commenting out this line removes the effect. (Somewhat long) Example below. Is there a fix for that?

color problem
by Susanne G. Loeber 02 Oct '20

02 Oct '20

Dear Reader, I have a colored section, text in another color and a TikZ picture with a differently colored node, following each other. However, either the node gets the wrong color or the following paragraph, see example below. Is there something wrong with the section settings? How do I get all the colors right without using a paragraph in between? \setuphead[chapter] [ style={\tfd}, color={A2plus}, ] \setuphead[section] [ style={\tfc}, color={A3plus}, ] \definecolor[A1plus][h=5CAF00] \definecolor[A2plus][h=B6437E] \definecolor[A3plus][h=606ABD] \definecolor[A4plus][h=FFC700] \definecolor[A5plus][h=D0202B] \definecolor[A6plus][h=EF8600] \definecolor[A7plus][h=0082AA] \setupcolors[textcolor=A1plus] \usemodule[tikz] \starttext \startchapter[title={Colour test}, ref=colourtest] \startsection[title={Section}] \starttikzpicture \draw[text=A6plus] (0,0) rectangle (2,1) node[right] {node text should be orange}; \stoptikzpicture \par This a paragraph which gets the colour of the section for no reason. \stopsection \stopchapter \startchapter[title={Colour test 2}, ref=colourtest] \startsection[title={Another section }] \par This a paragraph in the appropriate text color (green). \starttikzpicture \draw[text=A6plus] (0,0) rectangle (2,1) node[right] {node text is orange}; \stoptikzpicture \stopsection \stopchapter \stoptext

Best way to store text for later use
by Denis Maier 02 Oct '20

02 Oct '20

Hi, For typesetting XML I'm wondering how to best store text for later use: I've tried using buffers, but this here doesn't work: ================== \startxmlsetups xml:article-meta \setupdocument [ pub-year=\xmlfilter{#1}{/pub-date/year/command(xml:article-meta:pubdate:year)}, volume=\xmlfilter{#1}{/volume/command(xml:article-meta:volume)}, doi=\xmlfilter{#1}{/article-id[@pub-id-type='doi']/command(xml:article-meta:doi)}, elocation-id=\xmlfilter{#1}{/elocation-id/command(xml:article-meta:elocation-id)}, title=\xmlfilter{#1}{/title-group/article-title/command(xml:article-meta:title-group:article-title)}, author={\AuthorList}, ] \startbuffer[abstract] \xmlfilter{#1}{/abstract/command(xml:article-meta:abstract)} \stopbuffer \xmlflush{#1} \stopxmlsetups \startxmlsetups xml:article-meta:abstract \xmlflush{#1} \stopxmlsetups =================== This here works: ================== \startxmlsetups xml:article-meta \setupdocument [ pub-year=\xmlfilter{#1}{/pub-date/year/command(xml:article-meta:pubdate:year)}, volume=\xmlfilter{#1}{/volume/command(xml:article-meta:volume)}, doi=\xmlfilter{#1}{/article-id[@pub-id-type='doi']/command(xml:article-meta:doi)}, elocation-id=\xmlfilter{#1}{/elocation-id/command(xml:article-meta:elocation-id)}, title=\xmlfilter{#1}{/title-group/article-title/command(xml:article-meta:title-group:article-title)}, author={\AuthorList}, abstract=\xmlfilter{#1}{/abstract/command(xml:article-meta:abstract)}, ] \xmlflush{#1} \stopxmlsetups \startxmlsetups xml:article-meta:abstract \xmlflush{#1} \stopxmlsetups =================== But has using a variable for the abstract any drawbacks? (The abstract might contain multiple paragraphs.) Best, Denis

library 'uni' is unknown
by Susanne G. Loeber 01 Oct '20

01 Oct '20

Dear Reader, https://wiki.contextgarden.net/Symbols shows predefined symbol sets. The uni and wasysym are unknown. Hereby my example: \usesymbols[mvs] \usesymbols[uni] \usesymbols[wasysym] %% \usesymbols[ifsym] \starttext \par Show entire set martinvogel 1 \showsymbolset[martinvogel 1] \par Show YinYang symbol from martinvogel 2. \crlf \symbol[martinvogel 2][YinYang] %% \symbol[Alpine Symbol][Flag] \stoptext Console output fonts > symbols > library 'mvs' loaded fonts > symbols > library 'uni' is unknown fonts > symbols > library 'wasysym' is unknown The ultimate goal is to show a flag from the alpine symbol set from ifsym. However, I will settle with a flag from uni if it means I don't have to install files. Kind regards, Susanne

no frontmatter head on recto page
by jbf 01 Oct '20

01 Oct '20

For some reason that I cannot work out, the recto page header is not appearing in frontmatter sections like Foreword. It is important to note that for this item I am using: \definehead [foreword] [chapter]... \setuphead [foreword] [frontpartlabel=foreword, conversion=empty] Then starting this section in the main body with \startforeword...\stopforeword. As 'foreword' is based on chapter, I thought it would all work correctly given that I already have: [{\hfill\getmarking[chapter]\hfill}][] [{\hfill\documentvariable{metadata:title}\hfill}][] And I also have: \setupsectionblock[frontpart][page=yes] in case that is important as well. I am getting the verso page header (the book's title, obviously coming from the \documentvariable{metadata:title}), but not the recto header (in this case 'Foreword'). What am I doing wrong? I tried two solutions to solve the problem, neither worked: 1. In \setuphead I thought perhaps I might need to add placehead=yes, but that did nothing. 2. I also tried [{\hfill\getmarking[chapter, foreword]\hfill}][] in case I needed to add in 'foreword', having defined it as a head. That did nothing either. Any clues as to what I am missing? Julian

Tagged export breaks r2l alignment in tabulate

Hi, this example produces correctly aligned right-to-left text: ============ \setupalign[verytolerant,stretch] \setupdirections[bidi=global,method=unicode] \starttext \starttabulate[|p|p|] \NC Text \NC Translation \NC\NR \NC\setupalign[r2l]\input ward \NC\input ward \NC\NR \stoptabulate \stoptext ============== But, this here fails: ============ \setupalign[verytolerant,stretch] \setupdirections[bidi=global,method=unicode] \setupbackend[export=yes] \setupstructure[state=start,method=auto] \starttext \starttabulate[|p|p|] \NC Text \NC Translation \NC\NR \NC\setupalign[r2l]\input ward \NC\input ward \NC\NR \stoptabulate \stoptext ============== Why is that? And what can I do about it? (I need tagged pdf for PDF/A compliance.) Best, Denis

Unwanted whitespace at beginning of document
by Denis Maier 30 Sep '20

30 Sep '20

Hi, I have ended up with unwanted whitespace at the beginning of my document. The environment definition is already quite complex, so I cannot easily tell where the whitespace is coming from. Any advice how I could track that down? Are there some tricks for this? Best, Denis

page counter problem

he page counter does not increase in the first iteration an PDf inclusion but seems to work properly after that. Have attached a sample file (69K) that will serve to show the problem—at least, on my machine. \starttext \setupexternalfigures[location=default] \setuplayer[preset=middlebottom, method=overlay]{} \setcounter[userpage][101] \noheaderandfooterlines \getfiguredimensions[HannahBW.pdf] \dorecurse{\noffigurepages} {\vbox to \paperheight {\vskip-\dimexpr\headerheight+\headerdistance+\topspace\relax \hbox to \hsize {\hskip-\backspace \layeredtext[] [boffset=3pc] {\red\userpagenumber} {\externalfigure[HannahBW.pdf][page=#1]}% \hss}% \vss} } \dorecurse{\noffigurepages} {\vbox to \paperheight {\vskip-\dimexpr\headerheight+\headerdistance+\topspace\relax \hbox to \hsize {\hskip-\backspace \layeredtext[] [boffset=3pc] {\red\userpagenumber} {\externalfigure[HannahBW.pdf][page=#1]}% \hss}% \vss} } \stoptext
