issues with greeknumerals
by Pablo Rodriguez 08 Apr '14

08 Apr '14

Dear list, I have the following sample: \definestructureconversionset[cs][0,Greeknumerals,greeknumerals][n] \setupheads[sectionconversionset=cs] \setupinteraction[state=start] \placebookmarks[chapter, section] \starttext \dorecurse{5}{\chapter{Chapter} \section{Section}} \stoptext I cannot get either Greeknumerals or greeknumerals working in PDF bookmarks. And greeknumerals don’t show numbering in text. Am I missing something or is this a bug? Many thanks for your help, Pablo -- http://www.ousia.tk

> it's not clear to me what the bug is > > Hans Ok, the bug is, that, if you try my code with the mentioned font (you can take it from the html source code to be sure to get the right unicode char, here: http://www.ntg.nl/pipermail/ntg-context/attachments/20140403/22b89844/attac… than you will see unconnected letters, and not the correct ligature (which you can see in the unicode). And this is not a font-issue, as other programms (like Word or CorelDraw) print it correctly with the same unicode char. Could I describe it? Huseyin

Now for some reason that I don't understand no list appears in a subsubject. However if you use instead SUBCVHEAD as an unnumbered section with \definehead[SUBCVHEAD][section] \setuphead[section][header=empty,number=no,style=\bf,after={\blank[small]},before={\blank[small]}] and if you add \page after \placepublications[criterium=cite], then you get separate lists with unnumbered titles. I hope this is what you want. If not, maybe someone les on this list can help you. Best regards, Robert

three long-standing issues
by Pablo Rodriguez 07 Apr '14

07 Apr '14

Hans, the following sample shows three long-standing issues with ConTeXt (I’m afraid they might be bugs): \definestructureconversionset[chapternumbers][0,I,a,n,g][n] \setupheads[sectionconversionset=chapternumbers] \setupsectionblock[bodypart][page=no] \setupheadertexts[chapter] \setupinteraction[state=start] \placebookmarks[chapter] \starttext \chapter{\TeX} \input knuth\par \startfrontmatter \dorecurse{5}{\chapter{Front matter} \input zapf\par} \stopfrontmatter \startbodymatter \dorecurse{5}{\chapter{Body matter} \input zapf\par} \stopbodymatter \stoptext 1. PDF bookmarks don’t contain Roman capital numerals (as I think they should). 2. \setupsectionblock[...][page=no] causes the last page in bodypart to have its header removed. 3. \chapter{\TeX} causes bookmarks from bodymatter to be located before bookmarks from frontmatter. I have tested this file against ConTeXt from TeX Live 2013 (2013.05.28 00:36), ConTeXt Suite stable (2014.01.03 00:40), and latest beta (2014.04.06 13:09). Except issue 3 and ConTeXt from TeX Live 2013, all three versions suffer from these issues. Could you fix these issues? Many thanks for your help, Pablo -- http://www.ousia.tk

The first step is tro to make for each of them a .bbl-file with, what I would call, a "bbl-generator.tex": ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ \setupbibtex[database=ps.bib,sort=author] %\setupbibtex[database=ss.bib,sort=author] \setuppublications[alternative=apa] %or any other style \starttext \stoptext ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ This can be processed with mkii or mkiv. It generates a lot of auxiliary files, including an empty pdf, but the only important one is "bbl-generator.bbl", which you rename to ps.bbl or ss.bbl according to which of the two bib-files you used.(= did not comment out) The other files you need are two .tex-files with the complete set of \nocite[]'s of the two databases. Personally I never used \nocite{*}. If you use a Mac with BibDesk it is quite easy to make such a file. It gives you some extra flexibility. You can then generate the sectioned bibliography with: ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ \input(Your setups, including those for your Bibliography setup) \starttext \startchapter[bookmark=,label=,list=,marking=,reference=Bibliography,title={Bibliography} \section{Primary sources} \input ps.bbl \input ps-nocite.tex \placepublications[criterium=cite] \section{Secundary sources} \input ss.bbl \input ss-nocite.tex \placepublications[criterium=cite] \stopchapter \stoptext +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ That's all. I hope it works for you. Best regards, Robert Blackstone

[luatex-plain] disappearing math-on node
by Dohyun Kim 06 Apr '14

06 Apr '14

Hi, This is a bug report based on the issue discussed at https://github.com/lualatex/luaotfload/issues/212 \font\tenrm{file:lmroman10-regular.otf:mode=node;script=latn}\tenrm \setbox0\vbox{% x\penalty-10000 $a$x$a$ } \unvbox0 \setbox0\lastbox \unhbox0 \end The plain tex code shown above fails with a lua error: luatex-fonts-merged.lua:9616: attempt to index local 'current' (a nil value) My guess is: as math-on (math-off too) is a "discardable" item after a linebreak, the first math-on node has gone away. So the math-on/math-off pair has become broken, by which the behavior of "node.end_of_math" is confused. Regards, -- Dohyun Kim Seoul, Republic of Korea

page reference to figure fails when figure location is "none"
by Sanjoy Mahajan 06 Apr '14

06 Apr '14

Using a recent MkIV beta (2014.03.27), it seems that a page reference to a figure fails if the figure location is "none." Here is a minimal example: \starttext \input knuth \placefigure[none][regularref]{}{\pagereference[workaroundref] \externalfigure[cow.pdf]} \input knuth See \at{page}[workaroundref] or \at{page}[regularref] \stoptext The log file has references > unknown reference '[][regularref]' and the .pdf file has See page 1 or page ?? That is, the "\at{page}[regularref]" doesn't work. (But the workaround reference does work.) If the figure's location key is changed from "none" to "nonumber" or just deleted, then the regularref page reference works. It also works with MkII (with or without "none"), so I am guessing that it is a bug in MkIV. -Sanjoy

Multiple bibliographies (bib-module, mkiv)

Dear all, I am searching for a solution where I can use two different sources of bib files separately. I found that the same question was asked before at this mail list. Since it was few years old, could I ask if there is any new work done towards it? Thanks! Peng http://www.ntg.nl/pipermail/ntg-context/2010/048290.html Hello, I need two bibliographies for my document, »Primary sources« and »Secondary sources«. Two bibliographies was created and loaded with \setupbibtex[database={prim,sec}]. But for the last step in my intention I’m looking for something to the effect that \placepublications[database=prim] or in a similar manner to \nocite{*} for every bib-database. Is there any solution or workaround? Thanks Markus

Line numbering in columns broken
by Jeremy Engel 05 Apr '14

05 Apr '14

In the latest beta (2014.04.03 16:20) there are updates to the line numbering system that break its function in columns. (In the past it didn't work at all in many situations, not it works but in a buggy way). In the example below, the line numbering passes over everything twice resulting in two overlapping numbers for each line. \starttext \startlinenumbering \startcolumns \input{knuth} \stopcolumns \stoplinenumbering \stoptext

[fontloader] does base mode support combining substitutions?
by Philipp Gesang 05 Apr '14

05 Apr '14

Hi Hans, when combining e.g. certain number substitutions like onum and pnum or tnum and lnum, node mode seems to work fine. However, those do have value in math mode as well which node mode does not currently support. For comparison, here is a test file: https://bitbucket.org/phg/lua-la-tex-tests/raw/93745dba31e23febb02191c039de… Is there a way to define a font with the combination of, say tnum and lnum that will work in math mode? If not, are there plans to implement it in the future? Best regards, Philipp

Metapost: I only need a little bit padding

I want to have a rectangle (box) with a word in it (i.g. "Headline). And all should be rotated 90°. Below I found a solution I am quite happy with. How can I get a little bit more padding around the text in the box? You can copy the example to http://live.contextgarden.net/ - it is running: \startuseMPgraphic{rotatedHeadline} % Text "Headline" in a box which is rotated draw btex {\strut\tfd Headline} etex; % rectangle with rounded corners path p; p := llcorner currentpicture+(0mm,3mm){down}..{right}llcorner currentpicture+(3mm,0mm)-- lrcorner currentpicture+(-3mm,0mm){right}..{up}lrcorner currentpicture+(0mm,3mm)-- urcorner currentpicture+(0mm,-3mm){up}..{left}urcorner currentpicture+(-3mm,0mm)-- ulcorner currentpicture+(3mm,0mm){left}..{down}ulcorner currentpicture+(0mm,-3mm)--cycle; pickup pencircle scaled 0.5pt; clip currentpicture to p; draw p; currentpicture := currentpicture rotated 90; \stopuseMPgraphic \starttext \useMPgraphic{rotatedHeadline} \stoptext

Bugs in linenumbering ?
by Stéphane Goujet 05 Apr '14

05 Apr '14

Hello, Here is an example that highlights a few problems I have with linenumbering. When the line numbers are located in the margin, everything is fine. But when the number is located in the text: 1) Text overflows in the right margin. 2) Paragraph indenting does not work. We can even see a kind of right indentation appear. 1+2 => First line of the paragraph is too short, netx ones are too long. 3) linenumbering does not work within footnotes (neither with line numbers in margin nor in text). Perhaps (3) is not implemented, but I suppose (1) and (2) are not the expected behaviour. ============================== \setuppapersize[A4] \setupindenting[yes,first,medium] \definelinenumbering[lnbasic] \definelinenumbering[lntext] \definelinenumbering[lntextandnullwidth] \definelinenumbering[lntextandwidth] \setuplinenumbering[lnbasic][] \setuplinenumbering[lntext][location=text] \setuplinenumbering[lntextandnullwidth][location=text,width=0pt] \setuplinenumbering[lntextandwidth][location=text,width=.75em] \starttext {\bf A normal paragraph for reference}. \input tufte \startlinenumbering[lnbasic] {\bf Numbers in margin : correct right margin, paragraph indentation.} \input tufte \stoplinenumbering \startlinenumbering[lntext] {\bf Numbers in text, default width : overflow, no indentation of the first line but some kind of right indentation!} \input tufte \stoplinenumbering \startlinenumbering[lntextandnullwidth] {\bf Numbers in text, 0 width : no overflow but overtype on numbers, same problem with indentation.} \input tufte \stoplinenumbering \startlinenumbering[lntextandwidth] {\bf Numbers in text, average width : average overflow, same problem with indentation.} \input tufte \stoplinenumbering It also affects the previous lines when {em line numbering} starts from the middle of the line and not on a new paragraph. \startlinenumbering[lntext] {\bf Numbers in text, default width : overflow, no indentation of the first line but some kind of right indentation!} \input tufte \stoplinenumbering Line numbering does not work in footnotes\footnote{ \startlinenumbering[lnbasic] {\bf Numbers in margins.} \input tufte \stoplinenumbering } \footnote{ \startlinenumbering[lntext] {\bf Numbers in text.} \input tufte \stoplinenumbering }. \stoptext ============================== Goodbye, Stéphane.
