luatex hangs at 100% cpu
by Steffen Wolfrum 17 Nov '10

Hi, the current MkIV (ConTeXt ver: 2010.11.12) seems to have problems with start/stopitemize and start/stopcolumns: mostly it hangs at 100% cpu, sometimes it gives this error massage: !

Problem interacting \definehead and \placecontent
by Lukas Prochazka 17 Nov '10

17 Nov '10

Hello, I need to duplicate the \subsection command. The code is: --- \definehead[SSEC][subsection] \setuphead [SSEC] [after={ --- }] \starttext \placecontent \hairline \section{A} aaa \SSEC{B} bbb \subsection{C} ccc \stoptext --- It's OK that use of \subsection and/or \SSEC command increases the subsection counter (i.e. I get 1.1 and 1.2). But there is a problem - the "1.1 B" item doesn't appear in the TOC. Why? And how to get it in there? Thank you in advance. Best regards, Lukas

How to center a table horizontally?
by Lukas Prochazka 17 Nov '10

17 Nov '10

Hello all, this must be a really basic question, but I cannot find out the answer. I'm creating a table, but I cannot center it horizontally: --- \starttext \startalignment[center] \dontleavehmode \starttable[|c|] \NC CCC \NC\NR \stoptable \stopalignment \stoptext --- The code I used above works e.g. with pictures, so even if I'm using the \dontleavehmode "trick", the table is still flushed left (see the attachments). So is there a way how to center tables created by \starttable and \starttabulate horizontally? Thank you in advance. Best regards, Lukas

cjk texts in the pdf file which MkIV output sometimes can not be copy rightly
by Li Yanrui (李延瑞) 17 Nov '10

17 Nov '10

Hi all, For the pdf file which is generated frome the following example, two Chinese characters can not be copied rightly when I use simsun.ttc font and use *Adobe Reader* to view it. The copy text is displayed as the wrong unicode text such as "􁨀". However these glyphs can be copied rightly if I use AdobeSongStd.otf font or I use other pdf reader such as evince. \definefont[song][file:simsun] \starttext \song 描 $\overline{q}$ 提 \stoptext The attachment for this mail is that pdf file with simsun.ttc font which can be downloaded from http://code.google.com/p/way2ctx/downloads/list This situation is not general. For example, if I change one Chinese character the text can be copied normally even using simsun.ttc font. -- Best regards, Li Yanrui (李延瑞)

Placing boxes anywhere on the page
by Peter Davis 17 Nov '10

17 Nov '10

Is there a way to place a box at some specified x and y position on the page, and then typeset one or more paragraphs of text into the box? I guess I'm thinking of something like LaTeX's minipage, but with the ability to specify absolute coordinates, rather than just position relative to the current baseline. Thank you, -pd

outdated tiptrick.pdf in TL
by Mojca Miklavec 17 Nov '10

17 Nov '10

Hans, after reading "Updating to Beta Builds of ConTeXt / LuaTeX from tlcontrib breaks MacTeX" and http://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/5405/switching-to-context-minimals-m… I have realized that there is almost a sigle file under ConTeXt documentation in TeX Live: /usr/local/texlive/2010/texmf-dist/doc/context/document/general/manuals/tiptrick.pdf And that single file contains outdated information about how to update and how to generate formats. It might make sense to change at least that single file with completely misleading information to something that would make at least some sense. Mojca

definition and separation of colors
by Henning Hraban Ramm 17 Nov '10

17 Nov '10

I stumpled upon a ambiguous color definition in my automatically generated documents: \definecolor[Custom][c=0,m=1,y=0,k=0,r=0,g=0,b=0,] I.e. the color is defined in CMYK mode as 100% magenta and in RGB as 0/0/0 black. In the PDF the color is shown as black, according to Acrobat's preflight defined as RGB 0/0/0; CMYK separation depends on the profile, e.g.: Generic CMYK: 76/71/65/81 ISO Coated FOGRA27: 86/85/79/100 Euroscale Coated: 95/83/82/90 (I didn't expect the Euroscale Coated profiles to differ that much!) If I say \setupcolors[rgb=no], I get CMYK 100/100/100/0. This is not a good separation algorithm - GCR or UCR would be nice, but at least RGB 0/0/0 should render as CMYK 0/0/0/100. (Perhaps you could include something like littleCMS in LuaTeX and even deal with images?) It doesn't change if I define in different order, like \definecolor[Custom][r=0,g=0,b=0,c=0,m=1,y=0,k=0,] I get magenta only if I leave out the RGB values. It seems that in ConTeXt the RGB definition always takes precedence? Is this intended? Greetlings from Lake Constance!
