XeTeX and lmtypewriter10-regular
by Bart C. Wise 20 Nov '08

20 Nov '08

I'm running TeXLive 2008. When I compile for XeTeX (texexec --xtx) I get the following output that appears to be generating the lmtypewriter10-regular font. The bad part is that this is very slow. The part that's even worse, it does this probably 20...30...40 times? A compilation takes 145 seconds, and about 130+ seconds of time seem to be dealing with lmtypewriter10-regular. This doesn't happen on small test files, so I know I'm doing something wrong. Any ideas? Thanks, Bart kpathsea: Running mktextfm lmtypewriter10-regular mktextfm: Running mf-nowin -progname=mf \mode:=ljfour; mag:=1; nonstopmode; input lmtypewriter10-regular This is METAFONT, Version 2.718281 (Web2C 7.5.7) kpathsea: Running mktexmf lmtypewriter10-regular !

Hi all, I'm using the bib module. How can I adjust the space between publication items? Is it just an itemization? Thankx, -- Yi

New bibligraphy style
by richard.stephens＠converteam.com 20 Nov '08

20 Nov '08

Hello, I am using the bib module and I want to redefine the display style for the references. I have therefore created a new file "bibl-ris.tex" which I have put in the same folder as bibl-apa.tex and the other existing ones. In my environment file I have \setuppublications[alternative=ris]. Unfortunately, I get the error file bibl-ris not found, unknown style ignored Where should I put my bibl-ris file, or is there something else I need to do before it can find my file? Thanks. Richard

Re: [NTG-context] syntax highlighting problem with vim module
by Shiv Shankar Dayal 19 Nov '08

Hi, I updated context and grepped mtxrun for noquotes and the output is same as yours. I have a query. Line 270 of t-vim says \runvimsyntax{#2} Line275: \input #2-vimsyntax.tmp\relax where #2 is product_name-vimsyntax.tmp. This means that if the product name is xyz then \runvimsyntax{#2} which is basically a run of vim over #2 and it generates the #2-vimsyntax.tmp. -- Best regards, Shiv Shankar Dayal

Re: [NTG-context] syntax highlighting problem with vim module

Hi, I am running MarkIV and "luatools t-vim.tex" shows me the path of t-vim.tex. The version does say version=2008.07.15. I tried to execute the same command which t-vim.tex executes for vim but it says that command line is not correct. I switched on the logging and then I read the log and it says tabstop=8 is a new file. I doubt that something may be wrong with the command line for vim. -- Best regards, Shiv Shankar Dayal

Re: [NTG-context] bold small caps with latin modern

What a pity... With MKII and texlive, I could do this: \definebodyfont[15pt,14pt,13pt,12pt,11pt,10pt,9pt,8pt,7pt,6pt,5pt] [sc] [bf=cmbcsc10 sa 1, tf=cmcsc10 sa 1] \pdfpkresolution=1200 \starttext \sc Normal and \bf bold Small Caps. \stoptext But there seems to be no possibility to use bitmap fonts in the minimals. Once, I've heard about workarounds, for example getting bold by double printing with some displacement. Would this be possible? Cheers, Peter -- http://pmrb.free.fr/contact/

For long letters, I use a narrower textarea, but I don't think that's what you're asking me. Thanks again. Michael
