Hyphenmark and composed words
by Olivier Guéry 11 Jul '08

11 Jul '08

Hello, I tried to force hyphen in composed word with this : « composed||word » as explain in the manual. (Strange that context can't know that he can cut composed words after the dash, maybe it's only a french rule). In french, the hyphenmark is « - », not « – » (endash). So I tried \setuphyphenmark [sign = -] but no effect, I still get a « – ». This syntax : « composed|-|word » works. Cheers, Olivier. -- [Message tapé sur un clavier Bépo : http://www.clavier-dvorak.org ] http://nemolivier.blogspot.com

texlive2008
by Manuel Pacheco 10 Jul '08

10 Jul '08

Manuel Pacheco Guerrero Pregunto en castellano por si alguien me puede ayudar: Normalmente uso la distribución texlive que instala por defecto ubuntu 8.4. con la cual no puedo ejecutar texexec --luatex (Luatools | using format name ~/luatex-cache/context/formats/cont-en.fmt Luatools | no luc/lua with name ~/luatex-cache/context/formats/cont-en) He bajado y descomprimido texlive2008 en un directorio temporal y he ejecutado el instalador install-tl, lo cual me ha creado el arbol de directorios y los ejecutables. Puedo ejecutar texexec desde el directorio ~/texlive2008/bin/ pero no texexec --luatex, que me da el mismo mensaje anterior de Luatools. ¿Me he saltado algún paso en la instalación?, ¿interfiere la instalación previa de texlive? Si alguien puede ayudarme lo agradezco. ______________________________________________ Enviado desde Correo Yahoo! La bandeja de entrada más inteligente.

XeTeX and precise font sizes
by Neiaglov Dmitry 10 Jul '08

10 Jul '08

Hello there! I was googling around, but couldn't really figure out how to use OpenType fonts with ConTeXt and XeTeX with precise sizes in points. I am trying to create a subsection style with Gentium 24pt. I am creating a typeface like it's recommended in the documentation: \definetypeface [Gentium][rm][Xserif][Gentium] Then I create my own subsection style: \setuphead [subsection] [alternative=inmargin, numbercolor=orange, style=\Gentium] So far so good, but it actually types the subsection out with some pre- determined font size. What I'm trying to do is get my subsections at the size of, say, precisely 24 pt. Stuff like \definetypeface [Gentium][rm][Xserif][Gentium] \definefont [Subs][Gentium at 24pt] apparently invokes non-XeTeX font routines (pardon my ignorance): kpathsea: Running mktextfm subsections mktextfm: Running mf-nowin -progname=mf \mode:=ljfour; mag:=1; nonstopmode; input subsections This is METAFONT, Version 2.71828 (Web2C 7.5.6) kpathsea: Running mktexmf subsections ! I can't find file `subsections'. The best I was able to get was adding rscale \definetypeface [Gentium][rm][Xserif][Gentium][rscale=1.4] which is bad for two reasons: first, it's not logically correct, since I am planning to use my typeface for different sizes throughout the document, and second, I really want to control my sizes in points. Thanks in advance, Dima

\placebookmarks: opening with only topmost levels visible
by Sanjoy Mahajan 10 Jul '08

10 Jul '08

>From this minimal example, the resulting PDF file opens with chapter and section bookmarks. But it should open with just chapter bookmarks due to the second argument in this line: \placebookmarks [chapter,section] [chapter] The problem is mentioned on the wiki <http://wiki.contextgarden.net/PDF_Bookmarks_and_Headers> and I wasn't able to solve it by looking over the bookmark code in core-int.tex. I tried the example, with the same results, using Mk II 2008.05.21 (on my Debian i386 laptop), Mk II 2008.07.07 (live.contextgarden.net) and live Luatex. Any ideas? Should I post an issue on the tracker, just for reference? \setupinteraction[state=start] \setupinteractionscreen[option=bookmark] \placebookmarks [chapter,section] [chapter] \starttext \chapter{One} \section{One A} \input tufte \section{One B} \input knuth \stoptext

fonts with luatex
by Alan Stone 10 Jul '08

10 Jul '08

Hi, I have a former ubuntu tex/context installation with fonts in /usr/share/texmf/fonts/truetype (opentype, etc... ) [1] as well as a tex/context minimals installation with fonts in /opt/context/tex/texmf/fonts/truetype (opentype, etc... ) [2] the latter using for development under luatex/context (previously xetex/context). Can both font locations be used or is it better to copy the fonts present in [1] and missing in [2] ( for ex, truetype fonts ) from [1] to [2] ? Alan

Automatic sorting of german umlauts in registers
by Holzminister 10 Jul '08

10 Jul '08

Hi! Is there a way to sort german umlauts in registers automatically like the DUDEN does? For instance the DUDEN treats the ü like an u rather then ue. A little example: Huefte Huf Hüfte Hut The workaround with xindy is no good idea, because it removes the references in the pdf. Regards, Eyke

Filling frames with rounded corners
by 302302 10 Jul '08

10 Jul '08

Is there any possibility to fill frames with rounded corners by defined color but not as a rectangle? I mean if I define \defineframed [frm][framecorner=round, frameoffset=20pt, background=color, backgroundcolor=color2] it ignores the rounded corners and offset and fills it like a regular rectangle.

Using free Lucida, MinionPro and MyriadPro

Hi, Anyone tried using the MinionPro or MyriadPro thats ships with Adobe Reader 8? $ tree /opt/Adobe/Reader8/Resource/Font/ /opt/Adobe/Reader8/Resource/Font/ |-- AdobePiStd.otf |-- CourierStd-Bold.otf |-- CourierStd-BoldOblique.otf |-- CourierStd-Oblique.otf |-- CourierStd.otf |-- MinionPro-Bold.otf |-- MinionPro-BoldIt.otf |-- MinionPro-It.otf |-- MinionPro-Regular.otf |-- MyriadPro-Bold.otf |-- MyriadPro-BoldIt.otf |-- MyriadPro-It.otf |-- MyriadPro-Regular.otf |-- PFM | |-- SY______.PFM | |-- zx______.pfm | `-- zy______.pfm |-- SY______.PFB |-- ZX______.PFB `-- ZY______.PFB 1 directory, 19 files If you happen to use Java you might have noticed that it comes with Lucida aswell $ tree /opt/jdk1.6.0_06/jre/lib/fonts/ /opt/jdk1.6.0_06/jre/lib/fonts/ |-- LucidaBrightDemiBold.ttf |-- LucidaBrightDemiItalic.ttf |-- LucidaBrightItalic.ttf |-- LucidaBrightRegular.ttf |-- LucidaSansDemiBold.ttf |-- LucidaSansRegular.ttf |-- LucidaTypewriterBold.ttf |-- LucidaTypewriterRegular.ttf `-- fonts.dir 0 directories, 9 files and $ tree /opt/jdk1.6.0_06/jre/lib/oblique-fonts/ /opt/jdk1.6.0_06/jre/lib/oblique-fonts/ |-- LucidaSansDemiOblique.ttf |-- LucidaSansOblique.ttf |-- LucidaTypewriterBoldOblique.ttf |-- LucidaTypewriterOblique.ttf `-- fonts.dir 0 directories, 5 files Can someone enlighten me with the legal issues surrounding the use of these fonts i.e., whether I can use them to typeset a thesis etc. If it's perfectly ok, I'd assume someone has written an article describing how I'd configure ConTeXt to use them. If you so happen to have the link, please post it. And a question directed to the developers, why didn't you chose 'ConTeX', google doesn't like 'ConTeXt' it gets confused. I'm pretty sure users have noticed this. -- Thanks Mohamed Bana
