The rules of Chinese breaking lines don't work
by Yanrui Li 01 Dec '08

01 Dec '08

Hi, Today when I updated the newest beta, I found that Chinese breaking lines failed. This is a simple test file: %% \definefontfeature [zh][mode=node,script=hang,lang=zhs] \definefontsynonym [SongTi][AdobeSongStd-Light][features=zh] \definefont [song][SongTi at 12pt] \starttext \song 天下事有难易乎？为之，则难者易易也。不为，则易者易难也。蜀之鄙有二僧，其一贫，其一富。贫者语于富者曰：吾欲之南海何如？ \stoptext %% The attachment with this mail is the PDF file which I got by compiling the example as above. I noticed that the font-ini.mkiv was modified in newest beta (because I manage the beta with git in my machine). Maybe the problem is related to it. -- Best wishes, Li Yanrui

HI! Just as the tip showed up I did the build on my ubuntu-system and along the way I also installed TL2008 and LuaTeX according to wiki http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Running_Mark_IV On running typeset in texworks it typesets and a pdf file is created but following error-message at the bottom end occurs. I did the same on a command line but there it did not show up. The errormessage inside texworks log window: mkiv lua stats : runtime - 5.414 seconds, 7 processed pages, 7 shipped pages, 1.293 pages/second ! I can't find file `./'. <*> ./ Please type another input file name: Is there something missing in preferences window?

ConTeXt + BibTeX problem
by Guilherme P. de Freitas 01 Dec '08

01 Dec '08

Hi everybody. I have two files: "texfile.tex" and "references.bib". They are attached and also copied in the bottom of the email. There is one citation. The **problem** is: the citation appears correctly in the body of the text in the PDF, but the References list is empty. However, if one changes line 14 \subsection{Top trading procedures} to \subsubject{Top trading procedures} then everything works: the citation appears correctly *and* the reference appears in the References list. I don't know why. Any ideas? Here are the files: \\---------- texfile.tex ---------- \usemodule[bib] \setupbibtex[database={./references}] \setuppublications[ refcommand=authoryear, sort=auhor] \starttext Let $X = \{h_{1}, \ldots, h_{n} \}$ and $D$ be all the unitary subsets of $X$; $N = \{1, \ldots, n\}$ and preferences given by linear orders (complete and strict rankings) over $D$. This is the housing market introduced by \cite{shapley_cores_1974}. \section{Procedures} \subsection{Top trading procedures} % \subsubject{Top trading procedures} % If we use "subsection" instead of "subsubject", the References disappear. In the classic housing assignment problem, Gale's {\em top trade cycles} (TTC) algorithm yields an efficient allocation that is in the core. \completepublications \stoptext ---------------------------------// And the BibTeX file: \\---------- references.bib ---------- @article{shapley_cores_1974, title = {On cores and indivisibility}, volume = {1}, journal = {Journal of Mathematical Economics}, author = {Lloyd Shapley and Herbert Scarf}, month = mar, year = {1974}, pages = {23--37} } ------------------------------------// -- Guilherme P. de Freitas http://www.gpfreitas.com

Weighted colors in MkIV
by Wolfgang Schuster 30 Nov '08

30 Nov '08

Hi, in MkIV there is a problem when I set tints for a color. This is a complete minimal example of my setup: \setupcolors[state=start,rgb=no,cmyk=yes,spot=yes] % rgb= no needed in MkII \setupcolor [hex] \definecolor[PantoneOneEightSeven][h=C40F2F,e=Pantone 187 U] \definespotcolor[dtkred] [PantoneOneEightSeven][p=1.0] \definespotcolor[dtkredlight][PantoneOneEightSeven][p=0.7] \starttext \blackrule[width=4cm,height=4cm,color=dtkred,] \blackrule[width=4cm,height=4cm,color=dtkredlight] \stoptext I could also reproduce it with a short setup: \setupcolors[state=start,rgb=no] % rgb= no needed in MkII \definespotcolor[dtkred] [red][p=1.0] \definespotcolor[dtkredlight][red][p=0.7] \starttext \blackrule[width=4cm,height=4cm,color=dtkred,] \blackrule[width=4cm,height=4cm,color=dtkredlight] \stoptext With the setting rgb=yes the color dtkred is correct in the output but dtkredlight is darker than dtkred, with the setting rgb=no dtkred is black in my document.

MkIV gobbles text in xml files
by Wolfgang Schuster 30 Nov '08

30 Nov '08

Hi, I was able to reproduce Thomas problem with xml files. Part of his text was missing because he had a space after his <sln/> element in the file which caused ConTeXt to gobble the following text till the end of the paragraph. In the following text the second line in the second paragraph has a space at the end of the line and the two lines with b's did not appear in the output (test files are attached). <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <document> aaaa aaaa aaaa aaaa aaaa aaaa bbbb bbbb bbbb bbbb bbbb bbbb aaaa aaaa aaaa aaaa aaaa aaaa bbbb bbbb bbbb bbbb bbbb bbbb </document> Wolfgang

xml parsing
by Thomas A. Schmitz 28 Nov '08

28 Nov '08

Hi all, Hans, this is a terribly inaccurate bug report, and I apologize for its form, but it's something you and other people might want to look at. Or maybe I should change my files, I don't know. Here comes: SUMMARY The new mkiv xml parser sometimes "eats" parts of my xml files when they are typeset. It appears to skip parts of text between two tags. DESCRIPTION I have no minimal example, just a description: for my lectures, I have defined a counter to tell me when I want to show the next slide: \definelabel[SlideNumber][headstyle=normal,way=bytext] \define\sln{\color[red]{ [\nextSlideNumber]}} For my xml files, I have wrapped this into a xml command: \startxmlsetups xml:sln \sln \stopxmlsetups This works wonderfully in most cases. To make my source file more readable, I usually code foo <sln/> bar In this case, the xml parser SOMETIMES (not reproducibly, unfortunately) skips the "bar" part up to the next paragraph tag. When I take away the line break and write foo <sln/> bar the "bar" part appears normally. ANECDOTE I write my lectures in xml so I can put them on a website for my students, and I deliver them from typeset notes. This happened to me last Tuesday. I had typeset and printed my notes, and then while lecturing realized that an entire paragraph was missing. I could ad- lib it, but this is not something you want to happen at an important job-talk... ALl best Thomas

printing tab in lua: print('a\tb') fails

Hello, Here's a tiny question. The following command complains about undefined control sequence. \starttext \startluacode print('a\tb') \stopluacode hello \stoptext There is a workaround: print(string.format('a\t%s', 'b')) but I find it weird. Even if the line above gets commented out with two dashes it still complains. I understand approximately why this happens, but is that intended? Should I be using something else than \startluacode in the plethora of different lua triggering commands? Thanks, Mojca

columnset running into footer when using \setupheader[state=high]
by Jelle Huisman 26 Nov '08

26 Nov '08

Hi all, I have a fairly standard setup with the usual code to move the pagenumber to the footer on the first page of the chapter. This works fine, except when I place the text in a columnset, in which case the columnset on page 2 (and all following pages) runs into the footer area. I'm fairly certain that \setupheader[state=high] interferes with way columnset counts the number of lines it can fit into each column, resulting in columns that run into the footer area. This code shows the problem: % columnset running into footer area \definelayout[1][] \setupheader[state=high] \definetext[footerpagenumber][footer][pagenumber] \setuphead[chapter][page=yes,header=high,footer=footerpagenumber,number=no,align=middle] \definecolumnset[columnl][n=2] \showgrid \showframe \starttext \chapter{One} \startcolumnset[column] \dorecurse{10}{\input knuth} \stopcolumnset \stoptext Looking in the mail archive it looks like this is an old problem (see: http://archive.contextgarden.net/message/20060516.092742.d455b795.en.html ) but I'm wondering about a solution. Any thoughts? Thanks. Jelle

setup/switchtobodyfont question
by Alan STONE 26 Nov '08

26 Nov '08

The main manual mentions (ch 5 Typography, pg 92): "In most cases, the command \setupbodyfont is only used once: in the styledefinition. Fontswitching is done with \switchtobodyfont. Don't mix these two up because this may lead to some rather strange but legitimate effects." What's recommended when using a product meta-structure (standardmakeup-frontmatter- bodypart-appendices-backmatter) where the bodyfont (and in some cases also the top, header, footer, bottom fonts change) from one to the other ? Declare one (1) setupbodyfont and switchtobodyfont from one meta-structure element to the other or use a dedicated setupbodyfont for each ? -- Best, Alan * TeX engine = LuaTeX * ConTeXt minimal ver: 2008.11.10 21:40 MKIV fmt: 2008.11.25 int: english/english * Ubuntu 8.04 Hardy Heron

exported figures from DIA to Metapost including in document
by Jan-Erik Hägglöf 25 Nov '08

25 Nov '08

Hi All! I'm in beginning to write a thesis in physics(undergraduate level) and one of many things I wanna do is, cause I create much illustrations in DIA http://www.gnome.org/projects/dia/ and the program can export to figure.mp, to include these in my document. I've read the instructions on http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Mpgraphic I do not get this working. How is the best way to accomplish this? The reason is why I want to do in this way is to input tex code in the figure (especially math and symbol definitions) and optionally place them in specific places inside the figure. By this method I can even do better illustrations, hopefully. My workflow has been like this: 1. Create the desired figure in DIA and choose the export option. TeX metapost *.mp(see attached file ). 2. Tryed to do inclusion in a TeX-document like this \startstaticMPfigure{magflux} the code in the attached file \stopstaticMPfigure \starttext Here is my figure \usestaticMPfigure[magflux][width=0.8\textwidth] \stoptext But it fails with errormessage: !Paragraph ended before \startstaticMPfigure was complete ..... Should I place part of the code in some definitions? 3. To input textlabels in mathnotation optionally anywhere I want inside the figure. And also do something like \placefigure[][fig:metapostfigure]{Here is the figure I made in DIA converted to metapost}{\usestaticMPfigure[magflux][width=0.8\textwidth]} so it also can be referred to in the text.

Has anybody else on the list done this? If not, maybe the mkii implementation has never worked for that purpose... it's possible, since urls are breaking after hyphens when lang-url.mkii says to break before hyphens. If this is the case (\sethyphenatedbefore/after in mkii is broken), then rather than awaiting a fix for the soon-obsolete mkii implementation, maybe I can do a workaround. I need help with the tex details though, please, as I am still very much a tex newbie... We are generating our tex document, so verbosity is not a problem, but irregularity would be. Rather than inserting \break in various places manually, which would have to be redone often, I could automatically insert \discretionary or \allowbreak before/after the appropriate characters in the tex document. Would that work? How would I suppress hyphenation at other points -- \dontleavehmode or something like that? Thanks again, Lars

What does this mean exactly: - Is the tracker on foundry.supelec.fr now obsolete? - Should I move open items from foundry.supelec.fr to luatex.org? - Is tracker.luatex.org only a temporary solution, or will it be used for a not too short time in the future?

What is the command to define the behavior of \goto?
by Yue Wang 23 Nov '08

Hi: I don't want bold font for \goto, Where can I change it? BTW, some users here suggest that maybe we can define a hypperref-like linkcolor, citecolor, urlcolor in \setupinteraction, I think it will be a good idea. Yue Wang

font style, font case question
by Alan STONE 23 Nov '08

23 Nov '08

Hi, Re: http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Basic_Text_Formatting Although font style and font cases are mentioned separately in the table, from the few test I've done it doesn't seem font styles and font cases can be combined, for ex.: \bf \sc sometext. Is that so for all of them ? If not, is there a normal font case, aka \tf for the font style/size ? -- Best, Alan * TeX engine = LuaTeX *ConTeXt minimals ver: 2008.11.10 21:40 MKIV fmt: 2008.11.21 int: english/english * Ubuntu 8.04 Hardy Heron

startstandardmakeup and page numbering
by Bart C. Wise 22 Nov '08

22 Nov '08

I use a standardmakeup to define a "part" page. However, when I do so, the page counter does not get incremented. Therefore, after every part, the page numbers are inaccurate. Is there a way to keep the page counter incrementing on a standardmakeup? Thanks, Bart

XeTeX, Adobe Garmond & dash, quotes, etc.

The code below is used to load the Adobe Garmond fonts. The problem is that quotes (``) produces two single quotes.

modifying URL wrapping rules
by Lars Huttar 21 Nov '08

21 Nov '08

Hello, I would like to modify the rules for wrapping URLs (aka "hyphenating" URLs, but generally without inserting hyphens) to conform more closely to the Chicago Manual of Style, 15th ed. I've read on this list that the code for doing this is defined in the \hypthenatedurl There are several files with the same name, in contextminimal\texmf-context\tex\context\base\: lang-url.mkii lang-url.mkiv lang-url.lua lang-url.tex >From what I can tell, the .tex file loads one of the other three: \loadmarkfile{lang-url} I'm not sure which one it loads -- the lua, mkii, or mkiv. All three seem to have the rules for url hyphenation encoded in them. Is it a matter of which engine I'm using, e.g. luatex? Our project has a requirement of using Xetex, so I have to stick with that. Does that mean lang-url doesn't work at all? We also have users using ConTeXt Minimal as well as ConTeXt from the TeXLive 2008 distribution. I want to do things in a way that will work in both. I would be happy to put in some extra effort to make the result generally available to others who want to follow the Chicago style for wrapping long URLs. Thanks for any hints... Lars

letter module: no linebreak in signature
by Michael Green 21 Nov '08

21 Nov '08

Using Wolfgang Schuster's wonderful letter module, I enter my signature with my name and title like so: \setupletter[signature={Michael Green \\ Assistant Professor of Philosophy}] This used to produce a line break between "Green" and "Assistant" so the output would look like this: Michael Green Assistant Professor of Philosophy But it no longer does. Now it comes out like this: Michael Green Assistant Professor of Philosophy Is there a preferred way to accomplish the effect I want? Thanks!
