Another small caps problem with some fonts (and old-style figures)
by Mika Ritola 24 Sep '09

24 Sep '09

Hello again, I just discovered another weird problem with small caps when using some fonts, e.g. Adobe Jenson Pro or Adobe Garamond Pro. When old-style figures are enabled, the code below generates "GEOff" instead of "GEOFF". Another ligature bug, it seems -- which is strange because I don't see why old-style figures should affect ligatures at all (not that I know anything about these things), and also because the second line should disable ligatures in small caps altogether. \usemodule[simplefonts] \definefontfeature[smallcaps][smallcaps][liga=no] \setfontfeature{oldstyle} \setmainfont[Adobe Jenson Pro] \starttext {\sc Geoff} \stoptext I'm using the latest beta from yesterday. Again, I'd appreciate a workaround for this, apart from disabling old-style figures. Thanks, Mika P.S. Thanks to everyone who's replied to my bibliography questions. I'll get back to it as soon as I've had time to try out the suggestions.

Hi Matthijs, Thank you for your two follow ups to my original question. Both of the techniques you suggested also work for me, so I'm able to continue now. Cheers, Matt

textcolor (mkii)
by Peter Rolf 24 Sep '09

24 Sep '09

Hi, while struggling with my colortest for overprinting I run into this curious test case. Mkiv is running fine, but mkii gives no color (block 1 is black instead of blue) or the color is 'shifted' one line into the next textcolor block (block 3 and 4: 'Blue text.' is black and 'Black text.' is blue). Example attached. Best wishes, Peter \setupcolors[state=start] \starttext \unprotect \ifnum\contextmarkmode=4 \def\@@currentcolorname{undefined} \fi \starttextcolor[blue] Blue text.\par \stoptextcolor \starttextcolor[black] Black text.\par \stoptextcolor \starttextcolor[blue] Blue text.\par \type{\currentcolorname: }\currentcolorname\par \type{\@@currentcolorname: }\@@currentcolorname\par \type{\@@themaintextcolor: }\@@themaintextcolor\par \stoptextcolor \starttextcolor[black] Black text.\par \type{\currentcolorname: }\currentcolorname\par \type{\@@currentcolorname: }\@@currentcolorname\par \type{\@@themaintextcolor: }\@@themaintextcolor\par \stoptextcolor \protect \stoptext

Using MetaPost to create fonts
by Alain Delmotte 24 Sep '09

24 Sep '09

Hi! I have the impression that I did see that MetaPost can be used to create full fonts and not only pictures. (In fact to keep the potential of METAFONT, but extending it to OpenType /PostScript/TrueType (??) fonts.) I even think there was mention about Perl in this respect. Did I dream or not (yes I start to dream about ConTeXt and MetaPost !!!). Could you point me to the right direction and provide links and/or email address of the persons who are involved? Thanks, -- Alain

buffer problem (mkii)
by Peter Rolf 24 Sep '09

24 Sep '09

Hi Hans, can you add an \unexpanded (as in mkiv) to the mkii definition of \getbuffer? [buff-ini.mkii] \unexpanded\def\getbuffer {\dodoubleempty\dogetbuffer} Without it compilation breaks here somehow (error with my nested buffers). No such problems with the \unexpanded definition. And before you ask: no minimal example yet and hopefully there is no need to generate one anymore ;) ------------------------------------------------ [..] fonts : using map file: texnansi-microsoft-tahoma {r:/tex/texmf-fonts/fonts/map/pdftex/context/texnansi-microsoft-tahoma.map}) (././flib/icons-shell32dll-32bit-48x48.xml) (././flib/icons-thunderbird.xml) <. ./include/icons/pdf-icon_24bpp-48x48.png> figures : dimensions of pdf-icon_24bpp-48x48.png loaded from figurefile itself color : themaintextcolor is not defined [MP to PDF] (./window-mpgraph.2) [MP to PDF] (./window-mpgraph.3) [MP to PDF] (./window-mpgraph.4)) [MP to PDF] (./window-mpgraph.5)) Runaway argument? ]\relax \global \advance \commalevel \minusone \setups [Window:box]\setups \ETC . !

MKIV on Mactex Texlive 2008
by David Arnold 24 Sep '09

24 Sep '09

All, I am using Mactex Texlive 2008 on a Macbook pro. I did this: sudo ctxtools --updatecontext After reading http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Running_Mark_IV, I tried: sudo rsync -av rsync://contextgarden.net/minimals/current/context/ current/ /usr/local/texlive/2008/texmf-dist/ sudo rsync -av rsync://contextgarden.net/minimals/current/bin/luatex/ osx-universal/bin/luatex /usr/local/texlive/2008/bin/ Then I try: david-arnolds-macbook-pro:~ darnold$ sudo luatools --generate And I get: sudo: luatools: command not found Then I tried: david-arnolds-macbook-pro:~ darnold$ luatools --generate The result was: -bash: /usr/texbin/luatools: Permission denied Trying the context command yields the same result: david-arnolds-macbook-pro:~ darnold$ context --make Result: -bash: /usr/texbin/context: Permission denied So, there is some sort of permissions problem. We looked at this: david-arnolds-macbook-pro:texbin darnold$ cd /usr/texbin david-arnolds-macbook-pro:texbin darnold$ ls -l lua* lrwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 6 May 13 17:46 lualatex -> luatex -rwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 8009384 Aug 13 2008 luatex lrwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 49 May 13 17:46 luatools -> ../../ texmf-dist/scripts/context/lua/luatools.lua And tried: david-arnolds-macbook-pro:texbin darnold$ ls -l ../../texmf-dist/ scripts/context/lua/luatools.lua -rw-r--r-- 1 33 33 222585 Aug 14 01:50 ../../texmf-dist/scripts/ context/lua/luatools.lua And see that this file is not executable, so we try: david-arnolds-macbook-pro:texbin darnold$ sudo chmod +x ../../texmf- dist/scripts/context/lua/luatools.lua Now the following works. david-arnolds-macbook-pro:texbin darnold$ luatools --generate But this piecemeal approach to making things executable might go on and on. Can someone give a more universal cure? Is there an entire directory of scripts that need to be executable? Thanks. David
