TOC colors and in-page anchors
by Sylvain Hubert 11 Oct '22

Dear list, \usemodule[ipsum] \setupinteraction[state=start] \starttext \completecontent \section{s1}\ipsum \section{s2}\ipsum \section{s3}\ipsum \section{s4}\ipsum \section{s5}\ipsum \section{s6}\ipsum \stoptext In the table of contents, s1 and s2 (at page 1) are rendered in red, while others in green. Moreover, when I click s4, it jumps to page 2 without locating the section precisely within the page. This is not the case when using the latex hyperref package. Does anyone know how to make the colors uniform and the links precise? Any help is appreciated. Sylvain

ConTeXt Standalone does not works on macOS Monterey with Apple M2 chip
by Tommaso Gordini 10 Oct '22

10 Oct '22

Hello list, I'm trying to install ConTeXt Standalone on my Mac (macOS 12.6 Monterey and Apple M2 chip) but at the end of the installation the ConTeXt-MkIV folder (where I install Standalone) on the disk weighs only 7MB (the tex tree is created, but its folders are empty). I've never had a problem installing it on my old computer (Intel processor). Do you know if it is a known problem? These are the commands I used (taken from the wiki): rsync -av rsync: //contextgarden.net/minimals/setup/first-setup.sh . sh ./first-setup.sh --modules = all --fonts = all --goodies = all --context = latest --engine = luatex Where am I wrong? LMTX installation, on the other hand, should be successful (the folder weighs 297.8 MB, as much as the Standalone one should weigh). Thanks in advance. Tommaso

How to get line numbering to match block quote position?
by Joel 10 Oct '22

10 Oct '22

I have some text that is a block quote, but also has line numbering: \setuplinenumbering[step=3] \starttext \startblockquote \startlinenumbering \input knuth \stoplinenumbering \stopblockquote \stoptext The line numbering is appearing in the left margin as if the text were not a block quote. How can I tell it to move the numbering closer to the text, since the text is not up against the margin, being block quote text? --Joel

startTEXpage on A4
by Leah Neukirchen 10 Oct '22

10 Oct '22

Hi, is there a way to have something like \setuppapersize[A5][A4] but have the "inner paper size" be a computed fit like in \startTEXpage? Or, alternatively, is there is a way to print crop marks around an environment like \startTEXpage? Thanks, -- Leah Neukirchen <leah(a)vuxu.org> https://leahneukirchen.org/

\setuparranging values for perfect bound A5 on A3?
by Bruce Horrocks 09 Oct '22

09 Oct '22

I have a book to be perfect bound[1] and I'm trying to work out what imposition to use. The printer would like 4 A5 pages laid out on A3 e.g. +---+---+ | | | | a | b | | | | +---+---+ | | | | c | d | | | | +---+---+ so that he can cut the paper and simply stack a, b, c, & d on top of each other and then put them in the binding machine[2]. If the book is 40 pages long, say, then stack 'a' has page 1 on the top, page 2 on the reverse, then the next sheet has page 3 and 4, and so on down to the last sheet which has page 9 on the front and page 10 on the back. Stack 'b' would have page 11 on the front, 12 on the back and so on, so that each stack has a quarter of the book. Is this something LMTX can do and if so what combination of \setuplayout and \setuppaper do I need to use? If they can be printed in reverse order then great but I assume the printer can do that fairly easily. If not, is there a recommended external program that can do it? I've tried \setuplayout[4*2] and XY with 2x2 but neither output is what I need. Thanks in advance. [1] glued spine (if that term isn't used outside the UK) [2] I'm sure it's actually harder than that. :-) — Bruce Horrocks Hampshire, UK

Apostrophe entity using \xmltexentity is ignored
by Thangalin 08 Oct '22

08 Oct '22

Has the handling for the apostrophe character entity changed recently? In the following example, the \xmltexentity for apostrophe is ignored, resulting in a straight apostrophe instead of a curled one: % SOT \xmltexentity{apos}{’} \xmltexentity{lsquo}{‘} \xmltexentity{rsquo}{’} \xmltexentity{laquo}{«} \xmltexentity{raquo}{»} \startbuffer[document] <body> ‘Sylvia's spilled «wine».’ </body> \stopbuffer \startxmlsetups xml:xhtml \xmlsetsetup{\xmldocument}{body}{xml:*} \stopxmlsetups \startxmlsetups xml:body \xmlflush{#1} \stopxmlsetups \xmlregistersetup{xml:xhtml} \starttext \xmlprocessbuffer{xhtml}{document}{} \stoptext % EOT Any ideas on how to fix it? Thank you. mtx-context | current version: 2022.09.11 20:44

Example from Practex Journal
by Jeroen 08 Oct '22

08 Oct '22

Hello, Could anybody help me out with the setup and a MWE to get a document exactly as the one from Steve Peter in the Practex Journal in 2005 as in https://tug.org/pracjourn/2005-1/peter/peter.pdf I find this one hard to replicate. What is the font type that was used for this document ? Thanks Jeroen

Spacing issue with \digits in math mode
by Gavin 04 Oct '22

04 Oct '22

Hi list, I have been trying to understand the workings of the \unit command, which is producing strange spacing in math mode. In an effort to be more systematic, I began by investigating the related \digit command. \digit works well in text, but in math mode the comma separators produce unwanted space. \digits {12,345.67} vs.\ $\digits {12,345.67}$ Below is a one page test document, derived from the code in phys-dim.mkxl. I think a simple fix would be to treat the comma as “ord” inside a number, but I don’t know if that is easy or not. I’d also like the space removed from around the “x" in scientific notation, which might be accomplished the same way. Thanks for all the work on spacing in math! Gavin \setuppapersize[A4] \showmakeup[mathglue] %\mathspacingmode=1 \starttext Digits in math mode have problems with comma separators. \startbuffer 10 \setdigitmode {1} \setdigitorder{0} $\digits {12,345.67e89}$ 20 \setdigitmode {2} \setdigitorder{0} $\digits {12,345.67e89}$ 30 \setdigitmode {3} \setdigitorder{0} $\digits {12,345.67e89}$ 40 \setdigitmode {4} \setdigitorder{0} $\digits {12,345.67e89}$ 50 \setdigitmode {5} \setdigitorder{0} $\digits {12,345.67e89}$ 60 \setdigitmode {6} \setdigitorder{0} $\digits {12,345.67e89}$ 11 \setdigitmode {1} \setdigitorder{1} $\digits {12,345.67e89}$ 21 \setdigitmode {2} \setdigitorder{1} $\digits {12,345.67e89}$ 31 \setdigitmode {3} \setdigitorder{1} $\digits {12,345.67e89}$ 41 \setdigitmode {4} \setdigitorder{1} $\digits {12,345.67e89}$ 51 \setdigitmode {5} \setdigitorder{1} $\digits {12,345.67e89}$ 61 \setdigitmode {6} \setdigitorder{1} $\digits {12,345.67e89}$ \stopbuffer \typebuffer This is typeset as: \startlines \getbuffer \stoplines In text, the \type{\digits} command works fine: \setdigitmode {2}\setdigitorder{0}\digits{12,345.67e89}. \blank Suggestion: Within \type{\digits} (and probably \type{\units}) the comma could be an \quotation{ord} rather than a \quotation{pun}. This appears to be how the period is handled. \blank I personally think the space around the \quotation{$\times$} is excessive, especially when the number is in a formula. \startformula \digits {12,345.67e89} + \digits {12,345.67e89} \stopformula I would like the \quotation{$\times$} to also be an \quotation{ord} when used for scientific notation. \stoptext

remote images
by Henning Hraban Ramm 04 Oct '22

04 Oct '22

Hi, fetching images per URI was supported (and is also documented in the wiki), but with LMTX 2022.09.11 and one of \externalfigure[http://tug.org/images/logobw.jpg] or \externalfigure[https://picsum.photos/300/200] I only get the usual grey box. No error message. Do I need any setup, was this discarded in LMTX, or what’s wrong? Hraban
