Lucida again on mac osx
by Eric DÉTREZ 15 Sep '08

15 Sep '08

I sent this message last week. ********************************************************************* Hello I know that I disturb a lot this list, please forgive me. I tried to install a new mac. I donwloaded mactex (2008) I installed lucida fons in ~/Library/texmf/ then I typed "sudo mktexlsr" and "sudo updmap-sys --enable Map lucida.map" in terminal All is fine with plain TeX, I can use my lucida fonts. I copied all my afm and pfb files in a directory then I typed "texfont --fontroot=/Users/Ericd/library/texmf --ve=bh -- co=lucida --ma --in --expert" from this directory in terminal. (don't understand the --ma --in -- expert things) It made a lot of job, map files, tfm files. The texnansi-bh-lucida test file seems to work (it's a long task, I only asked to show LucidaBright). BUT \usetypescript[lucida][texnansi] \setupbodyfont[lucida,10pt] doesn' show me Lucida in my pdf. What did I do wrong ? ********************************************************************* Since I installed mactex 2006 and it went right (but cmr is uggly, there are not any ligature, first is written rst) The same happens to my main computer : I use mactex 2007, everything goes well ; I tried to install mactex 2008 and, again, the lucida fonts are replaced by computer modern (or latin modern ?) All my fonts afm, tfm and so on are local, in the ~/Library/texmf folder. I wish to install mactex 2007 : where can I find it ?

Font problem and font question
by Eric DÉTREZ 15 Sep '08

Hello again In Context Manual it is said that we can define new fonts. There is an example : \definebodyfont[10pt,11pt,12pt][rm][tfe = Regular at 48pt] I tried the text : *************************************** \definebodyfont[10pt,11pt,12pt][rm][tfe = Regular at 48pt] \starttext \tfe gros texte \stoptext *************************************** and the compiler answers *************************************** ! Undefined control sequence I.5 \tfe gros texte *************************************** I don't understand . Now a font question : is it a way to define casual (or cs) as italic, boldface or handwriting ? I wish to type {\cs casual} to get the world "casual" written with my LucideCasual font. Thank's for any enlightment

A silly question: how to pronounce "ConTeXt"
by Marcin Borkowski 15 Sep '08

15 Sep '08

As in the subject. What is the "official" way? I'm doing heavy advertising of ConTeXt* among my friends, so I need to know;). * even though I still find ConTeXt difficult to use in some areas (fonts, itemize) Greets -- Marcin Borkowski (http://mbork.faculty.fmcs.amu.edu.pl)

'See also' entries in register
by Duncan Hothersall 13 Sep '08

13 Sep '08

I know everyone is preparing for fun in Bohinj (and I am gutted that I am missing it this year) but it would be really great if someone had the chance to work out how to fix this problem: \starttext I wish I was going to the ConTeXt\index{ConTeXt} meeting this year to enjoy all the fun\seeindex{ConTeXt}{also fun}. \placeindex \stoptext I get output like this: -- I wish I was going to the ConTeXt meeting this year to enjoy all the fun. c ConTeXt see also fun 1 -- But I want this: --I wish I was going to the ConTeXt meeting this year to enjoy all the fun. c ConTeXt 1 see also fun -- Why is the page number of the first index entry attaching itself to the "see" subentry instead of the top level entry? Is it my syntax, or is it a bug? Thank you... Duncan

XY-arranging
by Willi Egger 13 Sep '08

13 Sep '08

Hi Guru's In the pdftex environment the enclosed file will result in an address- label on position 8 from the top on a sheet with 14 labels. When compiling this file with LuaTeX, then the label is placed somewhere down left and the dimensions are messed up. I am stummied... Currently I am using : ConTeXt ver: 2008.08.11 11:45 MKIV fmt: 2008.8.11 int: english/english Kind regards Willi

Mkiv Colour issue and more
by Mohamed Bana 13 Sep '08

13 Sep '08

> luatex --version This is LuaTeX, Version snapshot-0.29.0-2008072009 > texexec --version TeXExec | version 6.2.0 - 1997-2006 - PRAGMA ADE/POD The file source; http://pastebin.com/f4923f52c. > \placecontent[criterium=chapter, > level=section, > color=headingcolour, > interaction=all, > alternative=c, > aligntitle=yes, > before={\startnarrower[0*left,8*right]}, > after={\stopnarrower}, > margin=2em] >\blank[2*big] 1. The first line "1.1 section1 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1" is red! This is only the case with mkiv. mkii; http://filebin.ca/vfqedy/test.pdf or http://filebin.ca/vfqedy mkiv; http://filebin.ca/xmupe/test.pdf or http://filebin.ca/xmupe 2. Is it possible to have the \blank[2*big] generated by the placecontent command? The default space generated after chapter seems fine, but I'd really like to have a listing of the sections after the chapter. 3. Am I missing something? I'd like the same effect or better without the explicit call to \startnarrower or \stopnarrower >\definecolor[ucolour] [c=0,m=0.83,y=1,k=0.7] >\definecolor[urlcolour] [c=0,m=0.51,y=1,k=0] > ... > ... > \setupinteraction[ > state=start, > color=ucolour, > option=bookmark] 4. Doesn't work, but strangely enough "color=urlcolour" does. If I do use "ucolour", the links are shown in black; http://filebin.ca/dnoqva/test.pdf or http://filebin.ca/dnoqva 5. \useURL[key][http://wiki.contextgarden.net/][][http://wiki.contextgarden.net/] fails, but \useURL[key][http://httpd.apache.org/download.cgi] works. The former fails with; http://pastebin.com/f3cc75b10. I'm actually quiet baffled by this. Also now the dots are green; http://filebin.ca/cezdzr/test.pdf, http://filebin.ca/cezdzr or http://www.4shared.com/file/62409267/2d29710c/test.html. 6. Why aren't the paragraphs that have a picture to the right or left indented on the first line? Compare the paragraphs on page1-section1 with those on page2-section3. 7. Why aren't the the urls broken across lines, page2-3. I'm pretty sure the hyperref package in latex supported this. 8. What must I do to the 3rd paragraph on the first page to get it to space properly? It's far too close to the previous one. 9. the d in "praised" protrudes to the margin, how do I stop this. I should point out that this happens often. 10. And the last question :). Is it possible to get a table of contents similar to that on page 36 of 'the elements of typographic style'? I.e., chapter-namex - page x chapter-namey - page y chapter-namez - page z and it's centered aligned according to the -. % engine=luatex \showframe \mainlanguage[uk] \language[uk] \enableregime[utf] \setuppapersize[A4] \setuppagenumbering[alternative=doublesided] % PARAGRAPH \setupindenting[big,yes] % COLOURS \setupcolor[hex] \setupcolors[state=start] \definecolor[urlcolour][c=0,m=0.83,y=1,k=0.70] \definecolor[headingcolour][c=1,m=0.56,y=0,k=0] \setuphead[section,chapter,subject][color=headingcolour] \setuphead [chapter] [style=\ss\bfd,color=headingcolour] \setuphead [section] [style=\ss\bfc,color=headingcolour] \setuphead [subsection] [style=\ss\bfb,color=headingcolour] \setuphead [subsubsection][style=\ss\bfa,color=headingcolour] \setupinteraction[ state=start, color=urlcolour, option=bookmark] \useURL[authoremail][mailto:longemail@longemail.com][][longemail@longemail.com] \starttext \chapter{flower Flower} \placecontent[criterium=chapter, level=section, color=headingcolour, interaction=all, alternative=c, aligntitle=yes, before={\startnarrower[0*left,8*right]}, after={\stopnarrower}, margin=2em] \blank[2*big] \dorecurse{1}{ \section{section1} \input zapf \placefigure [left] [fig:project2] {Project2 - With Ali's cam} {\externalfigure[images/Project.jpg]} \input zapf \placefigure [right] [fig:project2] {Project2 - With Ali's cam} {\externalfigure[images/Project.jpg]} \input zapf } \section{section2} \dorecurse{2}{\input zapf } \section{section3} \dorecurse{2}{\input zapf } \stoptext

test files for Xindy (was Re: [Context] Xindy)
by Gour 13 Sep '08

>>>>> "Arthur" == Arthur Reutenauer <arthur.reutenauer(a)normalesup.org> writes: Hello Arthur! Arthur> At for the original question, it certainly sounds like a good Arthur> idea to me, but it needs investigation. Gour, can you make a Arthur> small test file with usage instruction? I've found some old post from Xindy list (Jan 2003) with some interesting info: "I have completed my project to demonstrate the use of Xindy in conjunction with Context. The results are available in the following (identical) collections of files: http://wexfordpress.com/tex/culleton.zip http://wexfordpress.com/tex/culleton.tar.gz I look forward to a more elegant implementation by a more elegant programmer. But mine works for now. :-) Anyone who needs to index a non-English document in Context (or pdfetex or whatever) need only create an alphabet file and proceed onward." So, if some ConTeXt expert can take a look and improve it, maybe we are not far from having full Xindy support in ConTeXt.
