Installing an arabic font

Hoping to annoy not everybody here with my arabic-font-questions. I have found I nice free arabic ttf-font, you can download it here: http://fonts.qurancomplex.gov.sa/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/UthmanTN1-Ver10…. One of its types is: "kfgqpcuthmantahanaskhregular" If I type in the cmd C:\Users\Hussein>mtxrun --script font --list --all --pattern=*kf* I get (together with some other lines/fonts): kfgqpcuthmantahanaskhregular kfgqpcuthmantahanaskh c:/windows/fonts/UthmanTN1 Ver10.otf So everything should be ok. But now the following failes: \definefont[amiri][name:kfgqpcuthmantahanaskhregular*arabic at 17 pt] \define[1]\Arab{\setupalign[r2l]\amiri#1} \starttext \Arab{ بِسْمِ ‏للهِ الرَّحْمَـٰنِ الرَّحِيمِ } \stoptext It compiles, but the output is destroyed, the letters have distances between them. See attached pdf. (In other programms, e.g. MS Word that does not happen, and the font is set correctly.) Apart from this mistake, the font is perfect set by context, even the "Allah" and its "Kassra" has a nice distance (see the other thread). Indeed, if this distace-between-letters problem could be solved, I am happy with arabic in context, this font would be enough, and all other threads of mine could be closed (as far as I am concerned :)) Thanks for your help!

TEXpage filename
by Alan BRASLAU 08 May '13

08 May '13

Hello, In the production of (scientific) articles for journal submissions, one is often expected to supply the figures as separate files. One workflow can be through the use of \startTEXpage\stopTEXpage followed by an external extraction of single pdf pages to separate files. However, is it possible or would it be possible to directly output to a named file, as in: \startTEXpage{figure1.pdf} \stopTEXpage or perhaps \startTEXpage [file=figure1.pdf] \stopTEXpage ? (I could not find an answer looking at the source.) One could then (optionally) reinclude the figure in a review copy of the full text through the use of \externalfigure [figure1] Alan

Small bug in the result filename extension in log
by Romain Diss 08 May '13

08 May '13

Hi, I just noticed a small bug in the log of a context job. It has no incidence but maybe this can cause a side effect somewhere. When a file contain several dot in its name, context remove the last part in the result filename in the log: $ context test.foo.bar ... system > files > jobname 'test.foo.bar', input './test.foo.bar', result 'test.foo' ... However, the output is correct and one obtain 'test.foo.bar.pdf' and not 'test.foo.pdf'. All the best. -- Romain Diss <romain.diss(a)yahoo.fr>

> works ok here (in latest beta) Sorry, my fault. Of course it works, but it was not r2l (and so not readably), this one is the not working: \definefont[amiri][file:amiri-regular.ttf*arabic at 17pt] \define[1]\Arab{\setuplayout[r2l] \amiri#1} \starttext \Arab{بِسْمِ اللَّـهِ الرَّ‌حْمَـٰنِ الرَّ‌حِيمِ} \stoptext Maybe the command \setuplayout[r2l] should be replaced by some other command?

Problems with arabic font "Amiri"
by "H. Özoguz" 08 May '13

08 May '13

Hello, I tried to type with the arabic font "Amiri" by K. Hosny. You can download it here: http://sourceforge.net/projects/amiri/ In this download-page you find a nice example of the font, setting the sura "Al-Fatiha" (first section of the Holy Qur'an). I tried to regain this example with ConTeXt, but failed. Here is my try: \definefont[amiri][file:amiri-regular.ttf*arabic at 17pt] \define[1]\Arab{\amiri#1} \starttext \Arab{بِسْمِ اللَّـهِ الرَّ‌حْمَـٰنِ الرَّ‌حِيمِ} \stoptext But that doesn't compile here. I get this error: !
