Hi! I unintentionally moved the mouse which sent the message, again with the wrong sender! So Which documentation should I use to start? Thanks, Alain

Dear Hans, I downloaded a new beta and test your sample and mine. It works perfectly. Thank you for the prompt fix. Best regards, Dalyoung

oldstyle numbers
by Arno Trautmann 16 Sep '09

16 Sep '09

Hi, I’m new to ConTeXt and try to compile a document using XeTeX. Loading an otf font works fine, but I don’t get it to use oldstyle numbers. google and contextgarden did give me some hints, but I didn’t get it working. I tried: \starttext \definetypeface[normalfont][rm][Xserif][Arno Pro] \stoptext and several versions of things like [features=oldstyle], [onum=true], \definefontfeature[mine] with oldstyle etc. but nothing worked. So what am I doing wrong? Is there a simple way for oldstyle numbers? (I want them in the whole document, so I prefer a simple, global solution.) cheers, Arno

First report on use
by Alain Delmotte 16 Sep '09

16 Sep '09

Hi! After discovering some details of ConTeXt during EuroTeX2009 I decided to try it. First problem, already encountered during EuroTeX: installation. On both of my machines the installation of the minimals failed. See attached file. For example: lines 13-14 rsync error, but at lines 26-30 it looks like it works, just a moment: after 30-35 I get 36-37 = error again. On lines 77-80 there is another type of error. But I installed ConTeXt from a copy of what Mari had on her portable (this brings other questions, later); so it works for now. But still in the error file, looking at lines 97-98 and 99-100, for example, what is the installation program changing in my mikTeX installation? ------- Now for the working installation. 1) As it was taken from Mari machine, isn't there possible problems with parameters from her machine which are not the same on mine? 2) How can update and/or create new formats? I am using ConTeXt with TeXworks; I did install a full copy of TeXworks (programs and dlls) in C:\Programmes\ConTeXt\texmf-context\context\data\texworks and I issue the setuptex.bat command before to start the ConTeXt TeXworks. (You can see that I installed ConTeXt in a folder without spaces in the name: C:\Programmes\ConTeXt\.) I am only using Mark IV, following the suggestion of Hans (for French,...) So I didn't install Ruby. OK the next questions will be about documentation, in another message. Thanks very much for ConTeXt (and again for EuroTeX2009 - it was very good).

Re: [NTG-context] about \sym{} and n*broad
by Dalyoung 16 Sep '09

16 Sep '09

Dear Hans, Thank you for the correction. After swapping first and second as you told, I got the good result. I have another question. If I use 4*broad in the first level itemization, it seems to me that it inherently applied to the second and third level too. Even though I set just serried or broad instead of 4*broad in the second or the third level, it seems to be ignored. Is it normal? Thank you again. Best regards, Dalyoung

bibmod: forcing a key for alphabetical sorting
by Sanjoy Mahajan 15 Sep '09

15 Sep '09

I'm arranging the bibliography of my math textbook alphabetial by author and it mostly works, but a couple entries are tricky. For example: @Book{Census:1992, author = {US Bureau of the Census}, title = {Statistical Abstracts of the United States: 1992}, publisher = {Government Printing Office}, year = 1992, address = {Washington, DC}, edition = {112th}} Using the settings \setupbibtex[database=../project, sort=author] \setuppublications[alternative=num, sorttype=bbl] it turns into this entry in the .bbl file: \startpublication[k=Census:1992,t=book, a={{of~the Census}},y=1992, n=7,s=otC92] \author[]{US~Bureau}[U.~B.]{of~the}{Census} \pubyear{1992} \title{Statistical Abstracts of the United States: 1992} \city{Washington, DC} \pubname{Government Printing Office} \edition{112th} \stoppublication I tried inserting a key={US Census} line in the bibtex entry, but the key seems to be ignored if there's already an author key (based on a moderately long stare at the cont-au.bst file). How could I trick bibtex into believing that the author's last name is "US", so that the entry would be placed with the "U" entries? -Sanjoy

Dear Jan-Erik, I tested your suggestion. Your method produce new line after Type 1, but I want to write "Type 1" and "This is a test." in the same line. And I have seen 4*broad in an example in the manual. In the example, it is used to set the distance, I think. Thank you. Best regards, Dalyoung

subformulas end theorems in Mark IV
by Yury G. Kudryashov 15 Sep '09

15 Sep '09

Hello! I've tried the following example (from wiki): \starttext \startsubformulas[eq:1] \placeformula[eq:first] \startformula c^2 = a^2 + b^2 \stopformula \placeformula[eq:second] \startformula c^2 = a^2 + b^2 \stopformula \stopsubformulas Formula (\in[eq:1]) states the Pythagora's Theorem twice, once in (\in[eq:first]) and again in (\in[eq:second]). \stoptext I get "Formula (??) states the Pythagora's Theorem twice, once in (1) and again in (2)." In log I see 'unknown reference [][eq:1]'. I also have label/ref problem with theorems. I define \defineenumeration[theorem][text=Theorem,location=serried,right=.] Later I use \starttheorem[thm:bony:random:open] ... \stoptheorem, \in{theorem} [thm:bony:random:open], and get just 'theorem' instead of 'theorem 1'. -- Yury G.

about \sym{} and n*broad
by dalyoung 15 Sep '09

15 Sep '09

Dear all, I try next code to get the following form of text. \startitemize[4*broad] \sym{Type 1} This is a test. bla bla ...bla bla bla ...bla bla bla \sym{Type 2} This is the second item. bla bla bla ... bla bla bla \stopitemize Type 1 This is a test. bla bla bla ... bla bla bla Type 2 This is the second item bla bla bla ... bla bla bla however, I got the overlapped output such as "This is a test" started from the position of p in Type. Chaing number 4 in 4*broad to another number doesn't work. Is there a good way to do that? Thank you. Best regards, Dalyoung
