Math setup with TimesNR
by Vyatcheslav Yatskovsky 11 Nov '09

11 Nov '09

Hello, I still need help with math. I created the following setup file which utilizes Windows standard Times New Roman font. In general, math symbols are displayed correctly (!), but Latin letters in formulas are not italic but regular. Where should I start tuning up to get italic Latin letters? \starttypescript [serif] [TimesNR] \definefontsynonym [Serif] [times.ttf] [features=default] \definefontsynonym [SerifBold] [timesbd.ttf] [features=default] \definefontsynonym [SerifBoldItalic] [timesbi.ttf] [features=default] \definefontsynonym [SerifItalic] [timesi.ttf] [features=default] \stoptypescript \starttypescript [math][TimesNR][all] \definefontsynonym[MathRoman][txmath@tx-math] \loadmapfile[original-youngryu-tx.map] \stoptypescript \starttypescript [TimesNR] \definetypeface [TimesNR] [rm] [serif] [TimesNR] [default] \definetypeface [TimesNR] [mm] [math] [TimesNR] [default] \stoptypescript Regards, Vyatcheslav

Re: [NTG-context] \setupmathematics[lcgreek=normal] problem with default font
by Vyatcheslav Yatskovsky 11 Nov '09

11 Nov '09

Hello friends, I look at the conversations on the list and begin feeling scared. I have a serious project with very tough deadline and heavy use of math. Our publishing department reject everything that does not meet their standards. Initially, I relied upon to possibilities: a) use standard LM fonts, but with upright greek b) use Times (Termes) letters for math, but with italized Latin Never thought that either could ever be a serious problem. Does anybody control the situation? Or my hopes are delusive and my project doomed? P.S. This is really sad, no whimpering :( Regards, Vyatcheslav

All, I've recently been playing with a fascinating package tkz-2d (http://www.texample.net/tikz/examples/tkz-2d/ and http://altermundus.fr/pages/download.html) I've been using: \usemodule[tikz] But I am wondering how I would use tkz-2d in Context.

Imposition plus indenting causes pages to be offset
by John Deeny 10 Nov '09

10 Nov '09

I am trying to set up the environment for a booklet, but I am having trouble using indenting with imposition. The pages are shifted to the right on the larger sheet by the indenting amount. Increasing the amount of the indent will make cause the pages to shift farther to the right. A test case is shown below. If I remove the line marked as "Error" in the code below, the pages are imposed correctly. I am new to ConTeXt, so I may be doing something silly here. Any suggestions? Thanks, John \showframe \setuppapersize[A5][A4,landscape] \setuparranging[2UP] \setuplayout[location=middle,width=fit] \setuppagenumbering[alternative=doublesided] \setupindenting[yes,medium] %%%%% Error, shifts A5 pages right \starttext \dorecurse{6}{\input knuth} \stoptext

mkiv: missing \colon, \colonequals is just an equality sign
by Jesse Alama 09 Nov '09

09 Nov '09

It seems that \colon is missing and \colonequals is mapped to the wrong symbol in the latest mkiv (I'm using the minimals). A minimal example: \starttext \startitemize \item $\colon$ \item $\colonequals$ \stopitemize \stoptext No colon is generated from the first command (in fact, nothing at all appears), and the $\colonequals$ produces an equality sign, not a ":=".

Hello, > > Vyatcheslav, if you want upright greek letters, you should really > consider using an opentype math font (cambria, asana, irianis ADF math). Aditya, I'm trying to use math provided with Termes (don't know what math fonts are used). But the first thing I stuck is just the opposite -- I cannot get Latin letters italized. How I can setup this? Vyatcheslav
