formatting title pages and table of contents
by Paul Menzel 05 Feb '11

05 Feb '11

Dear ConTeXt folks, how do you set a title page? I took [1] as an example where `\title{}` is formatted using `\setuphead[title][…]`. But then if I want to use ` \completecontent` to insert the table of contents [2] – I need it with the title – then »Contents« is also formatted using the definition for ` \title{}`, i. e., in my case a second page is inserted. ;-) [1] does not have to deal with this problem using `\placecontent`. Could you advise me of a “best practice” method how to accomplish both in a reusable manner? Thanks, Paul [1] http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Law_Faculty_University_of_Ljubljana_Styling_a… [2] http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Table_of_Contents

Dear Andreas, Thank you for your code. I'll try it. The other day, Wolfgang suggested me the same page in wiki. But, It looks a little bit complicate, so I use another simple method. Now, it is the time to look at it once more. Thanks again. best regards, Dalyoung

Dear all, The otherday, I asked about three line chapter head and got a solution. \chapter{\tfd Title \\ \tfc subtitle} Then, in the table of contents, it also listed as a big fonts. How to make the contents with a normal fonts? I tried \setuplist[style=normal, textstyle=normal], but no differences. Best regards, Dalyoung

about alignment in itemize

04 Feb '11

Dear all, First, yesterday was the new year's day in Lunar calendar, and it is the biggest holiday in a year for us. So I'd like to say "Happy New Year!" again. I use the following code to list some items and avoid the overlapping (viii) and letters: \startitemize[r, broad][left={(},right={)},stopper=] \item it is a test lihe. \item it is a test lihe. \item it is a test lihe. \item it is a test lihe. \item it is a test lihe. \item it is a test lihe. \stopitemize In the output, the roman numerals left aligned. However, is it possible to make it right aligned as following? (iii) (iv) (v) (vI) (vii) Thank you for reading. Best regards, Dalyoung

Latest beta, simpleslides, and font loading
by Aditya Mahajan 03 Feb '11

03 Feb '11

In the latest beta if I use the simplefonts module, the font database is regenerated at each run! For example, this file For example with this file: \usemodule [simplefonts][size=10pt] \setmainfont[Cambria] \setmathfont[Cambria] \starttext \input knuth \stoptext the font database is regenerated at each run. If I replace the simplefonts setup with \setupbodyfont[cambria,10pt] the database is not regenerated. Any idea what is going wrong? (In my actual document, I am using system fonts, I would like to use simpleslides module rather than write my own typescript). Aditya

JS in widgets still not working with mkiv
by Reviczky, Adam 03 Feb '11

03 Feb '11

Dear Hans Everything I use around widgets works now, except JavaScript. Please find attached a minimal example (js.tex). I don't see any errors running mkiv and the PDF is generated, but when I enter for example "\'a" into the field I am expecting to get "á" (as you can see with mkii), but it just inserts the keys I pressed, eg. "\'a". I've attached two PDF's, one made with mkii and one with mkiv. The input with the mkii PDF works as expected, the mkiv PDF does not work like expected. Can you have a look at this?

embedding swfs in pdfs

Any experts out there - with access to code (or the ability to assemble such code) that can do what acropro ( advanced options) offers on embedding swfs? -load in swf at x,y location relative to a fixed 1026 by 768 px background -set size correctly (native size of swf) -set poster frame (provided at fixed location) -load in a folder or directory full of assets (several subfolders are involved) -set up the launch settings for the swf So needs more than InDesign CS5 currently offers. Not just loading in a freestanding swf movie clip. THX Ian

Differences for \Vert in mkii and mkiv
by Otared Kavian 02 Feb '11

02 Feb '11

Dear Aditya, dear Hans, I noticed a serious difference between what one gets for \left\Vert in mkii and in mkiv. Probably this is due to the fact that in mkiv the glyph for \Vert is constructed in a different manner, but as far as I know from what I see in the mathematical printed materials, the correct one, or the expected one, is the output from mkii. I join two small PDF files obtained with the typesetting of the following minimal example: %%% begin test-Vert.tex \let\|=\Vert \starttext Look at the differences between mkii output and that with mkiv: \startformula \left\Vert\int_0^1 G(\cdot,s)ds\right \|_{L^q} \lesssim \|G\|_{L^p}. \stopformula \stoptext %%% end test-Vert.tex Is there a way to redefine locally \Vert (or \|) so that in mkiv one gets the same output as with mkii? Thanks in advance: OK

Image libraries / figure libraries / resource libraries
by Willi Egger 01 Feb '11

01 Feb '11

Hello! Under MKII we had already the opportunity to create figure libraries. In the meantime Hans has added this functionality to MKIV. There are slight changes in the setup of the xml-databases and the command to create such a library is changed. I have added the new aspects to the Wiki under the existing page http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Image_Database. These libraries are great, you get a good overview over images present in a project, you can find images in the library with the index, you can find info over the contained images. Further you can load an image from the library with the label given into your tex-source. I created just for testing a library containing 250 images, scans and drawings in mixed format as png, jpg and pdf. Works like a charm. Kind regards Willi

beta
by Hans Hagen 01 Feb '11

01 Feb '11

Hi, I uploaded a beta. Tho most important change is that mkii and mkiv are now completely separated, only a couple of modules and styles are shared. Another change is that language related information is now organized differently. Labels and such are in lang-txt.lua and easier to maintain. For those writing pretty printers: pluggable code is now under xxxx-imp-* i.e. the imp subnamespace. I have considered -base, -user etc but that would lead to too much testing. Users can put their extensions (when part of third party modules) under for instance buff-imp-t-<somename> which is unique enough. Anyway, by using an additional -imp- we have less change of clashing with core modules. Some more will probably follow. Hopefully all files are in the zip.

showing and hiding layers
by Skip Collins 01 Feb '11

01 Feb '11

I am trying to create a layer to contain letterhead graphics. I would like the letterhead to appear by default when a pdf is opened and printed. But I would also like to be able to hide the letterhead layer in Acrobat when printing on pre-printed paper. My simplistic, always-displayed letterhead looks like: %%% start code %%% \definelayer[letterhead] [x=0in,y=0in,width=\paperwidth,height=\paperheight,state=start] \setlayer[letterhead] [hoffset=1in,voffset=0.5in] {LetterHeadMark} \setupbackgrounds[page][background={letterhead}] \starttext Hello, World! \stoptext %%% stop code %%% But there is no obvious way to turn this off when printing. Contextgarden suggests using \defineproperty to create a pdf layer. I can show and hide this layer in acrobat, but it always opens up hidden. I am also not sure how to place the letterhead exactly on the page using this method. Any suggestions?

Too many column gaps in TABLE

Hi list, please consider the appended example. I get a gap in the first row after the first column because of the \setupTABLE command. However, I also get a gap after the second column, because in the second row the first cell just ended. Can this be considered a bug? (Mk IV) If it's not a bug, how can I change this behavior? I only want to have one gap right after the first cell in the first row and no other gaps between the columns (so the second row shall have no gap at all). Do I have to insert a dummy column with "width=1em" after the first cell and change "nc=2" to "nc=3"? Thanks in advance!

Feature request: Title Case/Start Case
by Reviczky, Adam 31 Jan '11

31 Jan '11

Hi, May I ask for supporting Title Case or Start Case in core ConTeXt? Eg: The first letter of each word is capitalized, the rest are lower case. It would be nice to have something like these: \TitleCase{What to capitalize in title case} resulting in "What to Capitalize in Title Case" \StartCase{What to capitalize in start case} resulting in "What To Capitalize In Start Case" If something like this doesn't belong to the core, then can somebody tell me how to achieve that as a macro (I've just briefly looked at the typo-cap)? Thanks, Adam

>>it was not yet implemented (passing the info was, but not adding it to >>the pdf stream) >> >>i uploaded a new beta Thanks, color and fontsize works perfectly now! Could you also have a look at whats going on with the alignment to the first field? And since we're at it, I can't get the field+javascript working with mkiv, is that suppose to work? All I want to do is the accented glyphs in a text field, aka: \setupfield [TextSetup][...][...][...] [...., regionin=JS(Initialize_TeX_Key), afterkey=JS(Convert_TeX_Key), validate=JS(Convert_TeX_String)] Works with mkii, but has no effect with mkiv.

wrong page with \finishregisterentry

Hi, when \finishregisterentry is set within a paragraph then the "lastrealpage" gets the value from the page where this respective parapgraph starts. (In the example below it is 4 instead of 5.)

Header problem
by Keith McKay 30 Jan '11

30 Jan '11

Dear All I have a problem with a chapter title which I am using as a header. The title's length in the header is such that it extends into the page margin. I would have thought that the text would have stayed within the header area and gone on to a second line but this does not happen. I have been on the wiki looking at the command reference syntax for \setupheader and \setuphead and \setupheadertexts to try and solve this problem but I'm a bit stuck understanding the syntax. Reducing the amount of text in the chapter name isn't an option. Any other suggestions Keith McKay

strange interaction with footnote and section

Head: why different distances?
by Procházka Lukáš Ing. - Pontex s. r. o. 29 Jan '11

Hello, I created a simple file which derives head style 'subsectionX' from 'subsection'.

Comment on new "Page Design" Chapter for new manual.
by John Culleton 28 Jan '11

28 Jan '11

The question of page dimensions can be very confusing for the raw beginner. I suggest the something like the following as a lead in: ----------------------------------------------------------- For a printed page we really have to deal with three different sets of dimensions. The body of the text exclusive of headers, footers etc. is called the type block. In TeX the measurements of the type block are called \hsize and \vsize. When text is being laid out each paragraph is generally no wider than the \hsize and when \vsize is exceeded the page is ended and a new one is started. The actual page size of the finished document is measured with \pdfpagewidth and \pdfpageheight. For most documents this is the last set of dimensions needed. In a few cases "camera ready copy" is required which means that the final printed page image is centered on a larger piece of paper stock, often with trim marks indicating the boundaries of the page size. For example here are the dimensions for a book recently printed: hsize =4.25 in vsize =7 in pdfpagewidth = 6 in pdfpageheight = 9 in stockwidth = 8.5 in stockheight = 11 in. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The terminology may need some refinement but you get the idea. Think of the "Man from Mars" encountering Context and even TeX for the first time. -- John Culleton Create Book Covers with Scribus: http://www.booklocker.com/p/books/4055.html Typesetting and indexing http://wexfordpress.com book sales http://wexfordpress.net Free barcode: http://www.tux.org/~milgram/bookland/

reference tag for equations.
by Jeong Dalyoung 27 Jan '11

27 Jan '11

Dear all, 1. I have used \startalign many times before without tag and it worked well. Thanks Aditya. now, I tried to set a tag for an equation using \NR[+]: But there is no reference numbers in the output. Since there is no mention about this problem in the list, I think that it is my only problem, Should I do something special for this? \starttext \startformula\startalign[align={middle, left}] \NC x \NC = n\times r, \NR[+] \NC y \NC = {{n-1}\choose {r-1}}, \NR[+] \NC z \NC = (n-1)\times {r}, \NR[+] \stopalign\stopformula \stoptext 2. Is there a command to reduce the width of the space between letters? For some Korean fonts, the space between letters is a little bit wide. I think that it is not a simple command, it may be very difficult job for me. However, is there a way to do that? My system is Mac OSX 10.6, ConTeXt Minimal ver: 2010.11.12 18:22 MKIV.

new beta
by Hans Hagen 26 Jan '11

26 Jan '11

Hi, I uploaded a new beta. The most important changes are: - Environments and modules are no longer loaded under protection so this has to be done explicitly in the files themselves. So far we haven't encountered problems with that change. - Some more cont-*.tex files have been split in mkii and mkiv versions. In mkii a tex file is loaded when no mkii file is found, but in mkiv only files with suffix mkiv are loaded. That way we stay compatible. This also means that cont-sys.tex is no longer loaded in mkiv which is okay as normally nothing in there concerns mkiv. If you use that file for setting up for instance another default paperformat, you'd better create a cont-sys.mkiv file. (Maybe that file should go and we should use the configuration file instead.) - The multilingual interface and messages are now loaded at the \LUA\ end. If you observe problems, please let me know. - If you are adventurous you can add the following to cont-new.mkiv \enablemode[*nofonts] This will postpone font loading and will be default soon. This saves runtime when you use another font than latin modern. When no font is loaded before the first \starttext, modern will kick in. A side effect is that any text typeset before \starttext will not show up in the output. If you observe that, you need to setup a bodyfont explicitly beforehand. In practice there should be no problems. The delayed loading is somewhat tricky but has been tested for a while. - There have been some fixes to linebreaks in verbatim. Hopefully I didn't mess things up too much. - An upcoming version will also have \nonknuthmode as default. You can test this by putting this macro in cont-new.mkiv.

Here's the minimal example: % begin of example \starttext \setupfields [label,frame,horizontal] [offset=4pt,height=fit,framecolor=green,background=screen,backgroundscreen=.80] [height=40pt,width=100pt,align=middle,background=screen,backgroundscreen=.90,frame=off] [height=40pt,width=100pt,color=red,align=right,style=type,background=screen,backgroundscreen=.90,frame=off] \setupfield [sizea] [horizontal] [style={\switchtobodyfont[20pt]}] \setupfield [sizeb] [horizontal] [style={\switchtobodyfont[28pt]}] \setupfield [sizec] [horizontal] [style={\switchtobodyfont[20pt]}] \definefield [Emaila] [line] [sizea] [] [pragma(a)wxs.nl] \definefield [Emailb] [line] [sizeb] [] [pragma(a)wxs.nl] \definefield [Emailc] [line] [sizec] [] [pragma(a)wxs.nl] \field [Emaila] [your email] \par \field [Emailb] [your email] \par \field [Emailc] [your email] \stoptext % end of example (field of Emaila has fontsize 20pt as defined, field of Emailb has fontsize 28pt as defined, but field of Emailc defaults back to normal 12pt? size instead of the defined 20pt. See attached pdf.) As for the color option, I couldn't figure out why it's not working at all. Some hints appreciated. Best wishes, Adam

Minimals/MTXrun: 32-bit system with 64-bit kernel: `MTXrun | no 'texmf-linux-64'`

Dear ConTeXt folks, I am running a 32-bit system with a 64-bit kernel. So relying on uname -m to determine the architecture leads to problems [1]. So I do `cpu = "i686` manually in `first-setup.sh` but I still do get the the following error message. sent 1145 bytes received 8908331 bytes 774737.04 bytes/sec total size is 31230200 speedup is 3.51 MTXrun | mtx update: updating mtxrun for linux: rsync -tgo --chmod=a+x /opt/context/tex/texmf-context/scripts/context/lua/mtxrun.lua /opt/context/tex/texmf-linux/bin/mtxrun MTXrun | run: rsync -tgo --chmod=a+x /opt/context/tex/texmf-context/scripts/context/lua/mtxrun.lua /opt/context/tex/texmf-linux/bin/mtxrun → MTXrun | no 'texmf-linux-64' under tree /opt/context/tex When you want to use context, you need to initialize the tree by typing: . /opt/context/tex/setuptex `first-setup.sh` executes the following command # download or update the distribution # you may remove the --context=beta switch if you want to use "current" mtxrun --verbose --script ./bin/mtx-update.lua --update --make --force --engine=all --context=beta --platform=$platform --texroot=$PWD/tex $@ but `mtxrun` or `mtx-update.lua` does not seem to honor the option `--platform` all the way.

Using \pdfnames and friends.
by Paul Isambert 25 Jan '11

25 Jan '11

Hello, I'm trying to use \pdfnames with MkIV, but I can see from the sources that it's a no-op and should be replaced with \pdfbackendsetname. So I use \pdfbackendsetname{EmbeddedFiles}{22 0 R}, trying to achieve the same thing as \pdfnames{/EmbeddedFiles 22 0 R}, but "22 0 R" is surrounded by parentheses, as if it were a PDF string, so that I end up with the useless "/EmbeddedFiles (22 0 R)". Similarly, \pdfbackendsetcatalog{PageMode}{/UseOutlines} produces "/PageMode (/UseOutlines)". What am I doing wrong? Best, Paul

Layers by native code vs. by Lua
by Procházka Lukáš Ing. - Pontex s. r. o. 25 Jan '11

25 Jan '11

Hello, a weird thing happens when setting up layers - I'm getting different results depending on whether setup is performed by native Ctx code or by Lua: --- \setuppapersize[A4,landscape][A4,landscape] \setuplayout[page] \definelayer[T][x=10mm,y=0mm] \startuseMPgraphic{VerticalRule} draw (0,0)--(0,PaperHeight) withcolor red; \stopuseMPgraphic \startsetups S1 \setlayer[T]{\useMPgraphic{VerticalRule}} \stopsetups \startluasetups S2 \startluacode context.setlayer({"T"}, "\\useMPgraphic{VerticalRule}") \stopluacode \stopluasetups \starttext \setupbackgrounds[page][setups=S1,background={T}] \page[empty] \setupbackgrounds[page][setups=S2,background={T}] \page[empty] \stoptext --- Both setups (S1 and S2) should do the same - to draw a vertical line to the full height. The first case (S1) is OK - the line starts 10 mm from the top left corner of the page. The second case (S2) is somehow shifted - the line starts cca 13 mm from the top left corner of the page. What is the reason? And how to make Lua way give the same result? Best regards, Lukas -- Ing. Lukáš Procházka [mailto:LPr@pontex.cz] Pontex s. r. o.

Problem calling Lua during \startsetups
by Procházka Lukáš Ing. - Pontex s. r. o. 25 Jan '11

25 Jan '11

Hello, I encountered a bit weird thing when I used Lua in \startsetup: --- \definelayer[T][x=0mm,y=0mm,width=\paperwidth,height=\paperheight] \directlua{n, m = 1, 11} % Initialization \startsetups layer % In my real code (= not in this example) % the value of 'n' is used here to set the appropriate background, % = n-th page of a PDF, and also to draw a filled rectangle on % the left or right side (depending on whether n is even or odd) % The code bellow fails [1] \startluacode print("N=", n) if n == 2 then else end \stopluacode \stopsetups \setupbackgrounds[page][setups=layer,background={T}] \starttext % The code bellow works well [2] \startluacode print("M=", m) if m == 2 then else end \stopluacode \dorecurse{4}{\page[empty]} \stoptext --- The problem is that Lua code between \startsetups ... \stopsetups [1] seems to be "parsed" another way than when in [2]. The [1] gives the following error message: --- ! LuaTeX error <main ctx instance>:1: 'then' expected near 'thenelseend'. --- So it seems like <space>s and/or <\n>s were "ignored". If you commented [1], the section [2] would work well. So how to use make Lua work well even between \startsetups ... \stopsetups? Best regards, Lukas -- Ing.

template for protocol (record) of experiment
by Paul Menzel 25 Jan '11

25 Jan '11

Dear ConTeXt folks, does anyone of you use(d) ConTeXt for typesetting a protocol/record of an experiment (in my case physics, but it should not matter). I already found the sample documents in the Wiki [1] and probably will be able to come up with something, which would take me some time. So I thought I’d be clever and ask you professionals if you have some templates, especially for the title page, since you probably already found a good font and the right settings for this purpose. There are no real requirements. The name of the university [2], with the logo, the name of the supervisor, the student with the student number, date and the topic (Versuchsprotokoll). Thanks in advance, Paul [1] http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Sample_documents [2] http://www.physik.hu-berlin.de/

Hi, with the actual minimals and luatex on Mac OSX I get "pdfError: Couldn't open file <image file name> Too many open files" and then fatal error 70.

Labels in MetaPost (MetaObj)
by Stefan Müller 24 Jan '11

24 Jan '11

Hi list, I'm having some trouble with MetaPost in general and MetaObj in particular. I hope someone on this list can assist me here. I'm trying to run the appended ConTeXt file with a quite simple object "Segment" (from the manual [1], section 2.1). This script works fine as it is. I wanted to add a simple TeX label ("\tt \overbar{E}") to the drawing macro, but failed. When including the line marked with "% 1" the TeX run fails. I don't understand why. The line with "% 2" is taken frome the metaobj manual (section 5.8) [1], but including this doesn't work either. It would be great if someone could tell me what's wrong with the mp-code below and explain how to place a (TeX) label inside a metaobj object. Thanks in advance, Stefan. [1] http://tex.loria.fr/prod-graph/momanual.pdf PS: Both variants fail with mp error messages like this: "mplib > mp terminal: ! Inconsistent equation (off by 1). <to be read again> ; assignObj->(SUFFIX0)=incr(nObj_); iname_[(SUFFIX0)]=str(SUFFIX0);addclass_((S... newSegment->...roup.assignObj((SUFFIX2),"Segment") ;ObjPoint.a,b;ObjCode"@##b... <to be read again> ; <*> ...ar {E}") shifted n.a; enddef; newSegment.s; s.a=origin; drawObj(s); ; !

metafun- how to pass array as an argument
by dalyoung 24 Jan '11

24 Jan '11

Dear all, I draw a simple figure using the code as below. In the code, I use "for i = 3,5,0,2,1,7:" in def draw_balls. However, if I can pass the array "3,5,0,2,1,7" as an argument for def draw_balls (expr n) and call draw_balls (3,5,0,2,1,7), then it can be used for different number of balls and number of boxes. Is there a way to do that or any suggestions? Thank you for reading. Regards, Dalyoung \startbuffer[a] path p; numeric bwidth, u, lastpoint; u :=1cm; p := fullcircle scaled .3u; lastpoint := 0; def draw_balls = %(expr s) draw (0,0) -- (0, u); for i=3,5,0,2,1,7: for j = 1 upto i: draw p shifted (lastpoint+.32*j*u,.3u); endfor; bwidth := .32i*u+.5u; draw (lastpoint,0) -- (lastpoint +bwidth,0) -- (lastpoint +bwidth,u); lastpoint := lastpoint+bwidth; endfor; enddef; draw_balls; \stopbuffer \starttext \processMPbuffer[a] \stoptext

Layer(s)
by Ian Lawrence 24 Jan '11

24 Jan '11

Morning, I am completely defeated by layers...from a more or less complete beginner.. So please be gentle. I think you ought to be able to have multiple layers and so to switch them on and off, using modes. However I can only find examples and documentation for single layers in use at any one time. If this is true then I can also see that there ought to a parameter that sets the stacking order of the layer... So I think I need to know about \setuplayer (just guessing) But: http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Command_Syntax/Missing#layer_commands So if any one of you kind people can help with the missing syntax, or a **simple example** of a multiple layered document, I'd be grateful. Thanks Ian

Vertical rules in multiple column mode
by Procházka Lukáš Ing. - Pontex s. r. o. 24 Jan '11

24 Jan '11

Hello, the following code generates 3column pages: --- \starttext \startcolumns[n=3,rule=on] \dorecurse{5}{\section{\recurselevel}\input knuth} \stopcolumns \stoptext --- You can see that the vertical bars on the page 1 don't reach the "real" bottom of the "text height", whilst they do on the next page. It seems that the length (or "range") of the vertical bar is given by the height of the FIRST column. It seems to me that the rule height should rather be given as (or related to): 1) MAXIMUM of height of all columns 2) or height of i-th rule as maximum of height of i- and (i+1)-th column (each two ADJACENT columns). Is there a way how to effect this? Best regards, Lukas -- Ing. Lukáš Procházka [mailto:LPr@pontex.cz] Pontex s. r. o.
