Conflict between blackboard bold font and enumerations
by Ogam Géry 31 Dec '09

31 Dec '09

Hi, I've got a problem with "\blackboard". When I use it in the title of an enumeration (title=yes in setupenumerations), I get this error during compilation: ! Incomplete \iffalse; all text was ignored after line x. <inserted text> \fi For instance: \starttext \defineenumeration[hello] \setupenumerations[hello][title=yes] \starthello{$\blackboard{ABCD}$} \stophello \stoptext Yet if I replace "\blackboard{ABCD}" with \reals (or \naturalnumbers, or \integers etc.), it works fine. What's wrong? Thanks. Géry

Using Adobe Arno Pro in Mkiv
by Changlin Ai 31 Dec '09

31 Dec '09

Hello, all When I used Adobe ArnoPro font in Mkvi with default font features, I found the memory useage of LuaTeX was very big. These are some tests: \starttypescript [serif] [arno] \definefontsynonym [SerifBold] [ArnoPro-Bold.otf] [features=default] \definefontsynonym [SerifBoldItalic] [ArnoPro-BoldItalic.otf] [features=default] \definefontsynonym [SerifItalic] [ArnoPro-Italic.otf][features=default] \definefontsynonym [Serif] [ArnoPro-Regular.otf] [features=default] \stoptypescript \starttypescript [arno] \definetypeface [arno] [rm] [serif] [arno] [default] \stoptypescript \usetypescript[arno] \setupbodyfont[arno, 11pt] \starttext \rm test\par \it test\par \bf test\par \bi test\par \stoptext and this is the information in log: mkiv lua stats : fonts load time - 25.328 seconds mkiv lua stats : result saved in file - cont-en.pdf mkiv lua stats : luatex banner - this is luatex, version beta-0.50.0-2009122521 mkiv lua stats : control sequences - 29946 of 165536 mkiv lua stats : current memory usage - 479 MB (ctx: 491 MB) mkiv lua stats : runtime - 27.828 seconds, 0 processed pages, 1 shipped pages, 0.036 pages/second SyncTeX written on lua.synctex.gzMTXrun | total runtime: 28.063 When I used these fonts without font feature, I got these: mkiv lua stats : fonts load time - 3.016 seconds mkiv lua stats : result saved in file - cont-en.pdf mkiv lua stats : luatex banner - this is luatex, version beta-0.50.0-2009122521 mkiv lua stats : control sequences - 29946 of 165536 mkiv lua stats : current memory usage - 84 MB (ctx: 86 MB) mkiv lua stats : runtime - 5.344 seconds, 0 processed pages, 1 shipped pages, 0.187 pages/second SyncTeX written on lua.synctex.gzMTXrun | total runtime: 5.484 How can I reduce the memory useage in such situation?

new beta
by Hans Hagen 30 Dec '09

30 Dec '09

Hi, I uploaded a new beta. The problematic fonts (reported a while ago) now are dealt with more efficiently. The problem is with the (way too) many kerns. First time loading is also somewhat faster as is the memory footprint for base mode fonts. (for those huge ArnoPro fonts using node mode is much more efficient than base mode). I hope that I didn't break anything else.

smaller inter line space for headings (on a grid)
by Andreas Harder 30 Dec '09

30 Dec '09

Hi all, I have three questions: 1) Is there a convenient way to reduce the inter line space for an head on a grid? First I tried \setuphead[section][style={\ssb\setupinterlinespace[line=1ex]}]—no effect. Finally I defined three commands to get it work. Perhaps someone knows a better way. 2) In a manual I found an example \setuphead[section][grid={line,-5pt}], but it doesn’t seem to work. Is it outdated? Is there an MkIV alternative? 3) Is there a MkIV pendant for \showgridboxes? Thank you in advance Andreas

30 Dec '09

Hi, i have a problem when i use font which contain non ascii letters in the file name, e.g. the filename of the Hirganino fonts on Mac OS X are a mixture or japanese and latin letters but only the latin part is used to cache the font information. In the following example \definefontsynonym[Mincho][file:ヒラギノ明朝 Pro W3][features=default] % /Library/Fonts/ヒラギノ明朝 Pro W3.otf \definefontsynonym[Gothic][file:ヒラギノ角ゴ Pro W3][features=default] % /Library/Fonts/ヒラギノ角ゴ Pro W3.otf \starttext \startlines \definedfont[Mincho]Hiragino Mincho Pro \definedfont[Gothic]Hiragino Kaku Gothic Pro \stoplines \stoptext the font information is saved at each run in the font cache under the name '-pro-w3'. fonts : preloading latin modern fonts bodyfont : 12pt rm is loaded language : language en is active systems : begin file selectfont-13 at line 3 !load otf : loading: /Library/Fonts/ヒラギノ明朝 Pro W3.otf (hash: -pro-w3) !load otf : file size: 11580728 !load otf : enhancing ... !load otf : saving in cache: /Library/Fonts/ヒラギノ明朝 Pro W3.otf !load otf : loading: /Library/Fonts/ヒラギノ角ゴ Pro W3.otf (hash: -pro-w3) !load otf : file size: 9362284 !load otf : enhancing ... !load otf : saving in cache: /Library/Fonts/ヒラギノ角ゴ Pro W3.otf fonts : resetting map file list {/Users/wolf/ctx/tex/texmf-context/fonts/map/pdftex/context/original-empty.map} fonts : using map file: original-base {/Users/wolf/ctx/tex/texmf-context/fonts/map/pdftex/context/original-base.map} fonts : using map file: original-ams-base {/Users/wolf/ctx/tex/texmf-context/fonts/map/pdftex/context/original-ams-base.map} fonts : using map file: original-ams-euler {/Users/wolf/ctx/tex/texmf-context/fonts/map/pdftex/context/original-ams-euler.map} fonts : using map file: original-public-lm {/Users/wolf/ctx/tex/texmf-context/fonts/map/pdftex/context/original-public-lm.map} fonts : using map file: lm-math {/Users/wolf/ctx/tex/texmf/fonts/map/dvips/lm/lm-math.map} fonts : using map file: lm-rm {/Users/wolf/ctx/tex/texmf/fonts/map/dvips/lm/lm-rm.map} !pages : flushing realpage 1, userpage 1, subpage 1 systems : end file selectfont-13 at line 8 system : cont-err loaded (/Users/wolf/ctx/tex/texmf-context/tex/context/base/cont-err.tex systems : no file 'cont-sys.tex', using 'cont-sys.rme' instead ) )</Library/Fonts/ヒラギノ角ゴ Pro W3.otf></Library/Fonts/ヒラギノ明朝 Pro W3.otf></Users/wolf/ctx/tex/texmf/fonts/opentype/public/lm/lmroman12-regular.otf> Wolfgang
