Hi there, trying to avoid widow and orphan lines in my texts, Hans suggested about three weeks ago the following settings (http://www.ntg.nl/pipermail/ntg-context/2011/063746.html) But the following sample doesn't compile: \setuplayout[setups=*lessstrict] \startsetups[*lessstrict] \setup[*\s!reset] \widowpenalty=1000 \clubpenalty=1000 \brokenpenalty=1000 \stopsetups \starttext Hello. \stoptext The error I get is the following (it's Greek to me): context --purgeall "a.tex" && exit (in directory: /home/ousia) mtx-context | run 1: luatex --fmt="/home/ousia/.texlive2011/texmf-var/luatex-cache/context/210a96fef5fbab446fd11afa77acb026/formats/cont-en" --lua="/home/ousia/.texlive2011/texmf-var/luatex-cache/context/210a96fef5fbab446fd11afa77acb026/formats/cont-en.lui" --backend="pdf" "./a.tex" This is LuaTeX, Version beta-0.70.1-2011061416 (rev 4277) \write18 enabled.

xmlbeforedocumentsetup?
by Hans van der Meer 29 Dec '11

29 Dec '11

I would like to execute an xmlsetup each time before the start of the (root) node <problem>. Following --I think-- the code from the xml document: \startxmlsetups xml:xam:initial Starting the problem.\crlf \stopxmlsetups \xmlbeforedocumentsetup{\xmldocument}{xml:xam:initial}{xml:xam:problem} xml:xam:problem is the xmlsetup registered for the root <problem> node. Why do I get the next error? ! LuaTeX error <main ctx instance>:1: unexpected symbol near ')'. system > tex > error on line 290 in file xam-test.tex: LuaTeX error … \ctxlxml #1->\directlua \zerocount {lxml.#1} l.290 ...cument}{xml:xam:initial}{xml:xam:problem} Hans van der Meer

Huge PDFs
by Jan Heinen 29 Dec '11

29 Dec '11

Hello, lots of my images are huge 200x250mm. I reduce their size with: \externalfigure[cow][width=20mm, heigth=25mm] After generating the PDF, the pdf is very huge. 1. Can't Context put the reduced image into the PDF? 2. How can I generate one PDF version for printing (300dpi) and one for the screen (72dpi)? I am using Context mk-IV. Regards Jannis

problems with t-letter - reference line
by Thomas Engel 29 Dec '11

29 Dec '11

Hello, I have updated my context system (recent beta) and get some problems with the t-letter module. (also updated) I'm not able to get a reference line. See attached example. Are there some changes in the interface? The date is in English, but I have switched the mainlanguage to German. Thanks! Thomas
