Math symbols "rigt floor" and "left floor"
by Thomas A. Schmitz 29 Oct '09

29 Oct '09

Hi all, quick question: does anyone know of a free font that contains the symbols "left floor" (uni230A) and "right floor" (uni120B)? I have a commercial font that does have them, but I need a portable and free version for the next release of my Greek module. Thanks, and all best Thomas

For the record, I used the simple method Wolfgang pointed to: restarting in "Safe Mode" then restarting again in normal mode. It's extremely easy with no software or mucking around in unusual directories. Specifically, I followed these instructions: http://www.ascendercorp.com/support/

\attachment not working in MkIV
by Matthijs Kooijman 29 Oct '09

29 Oct '09

Hi, I've been trying to get \attachment to work, but I get a Lua error. The following example, (taken from scrn-int.mkiv and stripped a bit) provides an error: \setupinteraction[state=start] \useattachment[whatever][test.tex] \starttext \attachment[whatever] \stoptext The tail of the output is: interaction : active ! LuaTeX error <main ctx instance>:1: attempt to index global 'interactions' (a nil value) stack traceback: <main ctx instance>:1: in main chunk. \douseattachment ...newname="#2", filename="#2" }} \else \ctxlua {interaction... <to be read again> \starttext l.4 \starttext \attachment[whatever] \stoptext What's up with this?

Hello Hans, > did you enable feature > > tlig=yes > Yes! It works! One question. If I have "[features=default]" in typescript, how can I add tlig feature to existing default ones? Is [features=default, tlig=yes] valid? Regards, Vyatcheslav

Lua error on unailable fonts
by Matthijs Kooijman 29 Oct '09

29 Oct '09

Hi, after upgrading to the latest context beta, I'm fased with the following lua error: define font | forced type otf of lmmono8-regular not found define font | font with name lmmono8-regular is not found [...] ! LuaTeX error /usr/share/texmf/tex/context/base/math-vfu.lua:366: table index is nil stack traceback: /usr/share/texmf/tex/context/base/math-vfu.lua:366: in function </usr/share/texmf/tex/context/base/math-vfu.lua:261> (tail call): ? (tail call): ? /usr/share/texmf/tex/context/base/font-def.lua:549: in function 'read' /usr/share/texmf/tex/context/base/font-ctx.lua:359: in function 'command_2' <main ctx instance>:1: in main chunk. Apparently there is still some font cache somewhere that's not updated, and context says it has a font that is not found. However, a bit further down, this crashes. The cause of this is that the "nullfont" is returned as defined in font-ini.lua, not just nil: fonts.ids[0] = { -- nullfont characters = { }, descriptions = { }, } This font has no name, but math-vfu.lua uses fs.name unconditionally. Either math-vfu.lua should be fixed to test for this, or a line should be added to the null font above: name = "", I've tested the latter, and it solves my immediate problem. Gr. Matthijs

Minimals
by Jörg Hagmann 29 Oct '09

29 Oct '09

Installing the minimals on ubuntu works with "first-setup.sh" without remaking the formats, in both mkII and mkiv. Installing them on my mac (10.5.8) (same procedure), mkii only works after remaking the formats, whereas remaking them for mkiv didn't help (Fatal Error : Your format does not match the base files!). Shouldn't first-setup.sh behave the same way on both computers? Cheers, Jörg
