Hello again, Btw, why info for Windows TimesNewRoman is empty? Do ttf fonts have no features, or something is broken? F:\ConTeXt\~man>mtxrun --script fonts --list --info timesnewroman MTXrun | fontname: timesnewroman MTXrun | fullname: Times New Roman MTXrun | filename: C:/WINDOWS/Fonts/times.ttf MTXrun | (I found the features topic very interesting, and I'm going to make Win GUI tool for browsing ConTexT fonts and watching their info).

"Invalid field" in Mark IV
by Flavien Lambert 13 May '09

13 May '09

Dear all, I didn't use ConTeXt for some time and, so, have just re-installed the minimals tonight. When running on some of my files, Mark II does its job well but Mark IV tells me error: Invalid field id nucleus for node type choice (0) . l.133 ... M décrit l'axe $({\rm O};\vect{e_{x}})$ avec une vitesse $\dot{x}... I have absolutely no idea what it is trying to say to me... If related, the macro is defined by \def\vect#1{% \overrightarrow{#1} } Regards, -- Flavien. ---------------------------- "Quantum objects are completely crazy but, at least, they are all crazy in the same way."

Custom refcommand for bibtex
by Andreas Schneider 13 May '09

13 May '09

Hi, I've little problem concerning the bib module. My university demands a certain style for external references. It seems to be no problem to define a custom style for the publication list but I can't seem to find any way to define a custom citation style. To be more precise: they want a footnote with certain informations about the citation ... at least author(s), year(s), title and if specified the references page. Is there maybe some (easy) way to define a custom refcommand? Then the footnote could be inserted by doing the \cite within a \footnote. Thanks in advance! Andreas Schneider.

tables with notes
by Bowen Alan C. 13 May '09

13 May '09

I have a dim recollection that this question has been asked before, but I have not been able to find the answer. So please excuse me if this goes over old ground. I have prepared a fairly complex table (using \starttables) that has notes to various entries. What I should like is to • mark the notes with the letters, a, b, c,... • put the notes immediately beneath the table caption (in single column text) and to keep the notes with the table, and • maintain the proper sequence of numbered footnotes in the surrounding text. Any suggestions or pointers to previous discussions will be gratefully received. Alan

XeConTeXt bug report III: Wrong hyperlink
by Yue Wang 13 May '09

13 May '09

Hi, Hans and Jin-Hwan: When using ConTeXt to produce my documents, I found that all hyperlinks are wrong. And here is a simple test. The tex and pdf files are attached in the mail. The problem will happen when: 1) using pdftex to produce the dvi, and use dvipdfmx to convert the dvi to pdf. 2) using xetex to produce xdv, and xdvipdfmx that xdv to pdf. Open the file in Acrobat Reader, Go to page three, and you can see a hyperlink text "Equation 1", it links to page 2. however, the equation is in page1. The "section 1" or "page 4" should point to page 4, but it point to page 5 now. So my question: - As far as I know, dvipdfmx's ConTeXt support was written by Jin-Hwan. and the hyperlink code is written by Hans. Surely at least one of the two source code files has a cross-ref bug. But I don't know which. Can the bug be fixed? Thanks Yue Wang

XeConTeXt bug report I: strange benchmark
by Yue Wang 13 May '09

13 May '09

Hi, Hans and Jonathan: I made some testing samples in ConTeXt to test XeTeX. but the result is quite strange. All benchmark are get from the second run: Sample 1: \definefont[a][file:SimSun] \starttext \dorecurse{10000}{ hello {\a 你好}} \stoptext And here is the result: XeTeX: TeXExec | runtime: 7.25 LuaTeX: MTXrun | total runtime: 6.719 This is considerablly ok. So we can say that the font switching is pretty fast. Sample 2: \definefont[a][file:AdobeSongStd-Light.otf] \starttext \dorecurse{10000}{ hello {\a 你好}} \stoptext XeTeX: TeXExec | runtime: 63.65 LuaTeX: MTXrun | total runtime: 8.156 Here I only change the font from SimSun to Adobe Song (the two fonts are almost at the same sice [~10M]). But the xetex result is very differt from the previous run. it consumes one minute to compile the file. Sample 3: \starttypescript[serif] [myzhfont] \definefontsynonym [Serif] [file:SimSun] \definefontsynonym [SerifBold] [file:SimSun] \definefontsynonym [SerifItalic] [file:SimSun] \definefontsynonym [SerifBoldItalic] [file:SimSun] \stoptypescript \starttypescript[sans] [myzhfont] \definefontsynonym [Sans] [file:SimSun] \definefontsynonym [SansBold] [file:SimSun] \definefontsynonym [SansItalic] [file:SimSun] \definefontsynonym [SansBoldItalic] [file:SimSun] \stoptypescript \starttypescript[mono] [myzhfont] \definefontsynonym [Mono] [file:SimSun] \definefontsynonym [MonoBold] [file:SimSun] \definefontsynonym [MonoItalic] [file:SimSun] \definefontsynonym [MonoBoldItalic] [file:SimSun] \stoptypescript \definetypeface [myzhfont] [rm] [serif][myzhfont] [default] \definetypeface [myzhfont] [ss] [sans] [myzhfont] [default] \definetypeface [myzhfont] [tt] [mono] [myzhfont] [default] \def\a{\myzhfont} \starttext \dorecurse{10000}{ hello {\a 你好}} \stoptext XeTeX: TeXExec | runtime: 64.797 LuaTeX: MTXrun | total runtime: 10.797 Here we use SimSun since in the first sample xetex can load simsun quite fast. However, in this time we define a typescript, and make all the styles fall into SimSun. Now xetex behaves quite strangely: it uses one minutes to compile this single document... So my question is - why loading otf is so slow? - is this a bug in context or in xetex? can it be fixed? - how can we make sample 3 (using typescript) run faster? Thanks. Yue Wang
