Overriding a chapter number
by Gerben Wierda 30 Jul '08

30 Jul '08

When I compile a chapter of a book separately, I want to override the automatic numbering because otherwise every separate pdf will have chapter 1. So I tried: \doifmode{standalone}{\setuphead[chapter][2]} \chapter[h:foo]{Foo} But the chapter still gets number 1 when I compile with texexec --pdf --mode=standalone c_foo.tex what am I doing wrong here? Thanks, G

bib module and hypehnation
by Aditya Mahajan 28 Jul '08

28 Jul '08

Hi, I am using the bib module with ssa style. Quite often while citing articles with long author names, I find author names protruding into the margin. Does bib module not support hyphenating author names, or is something wrong in my setup? Aditya

End notes and compile per chapter question
by Gerben Wierda 28 Jul '08

28 Jul '08

I have a book project with a structure I copied a few years ago from some instructional page. The product file looks like this: > \startproduct prd_book > \project project_teoada > > \starttext > \start > \startstandardmakeup \ss > \hairline \start > \switchtobodyfont[20pt]\bf > \leftaligned{Test Project Title}% > \stop \hairline \blank[line]\rightaligned{Gerben Wierda}% > \blank[10cm]\start\leftskip=10cm\hairline\stop > \rightaligned{1995--2006}% > \stopstandardmakeup > \stop > > \startfrontmatter > \completecontent > \component c_foo > \stopfrontmatter > \startbodymatter > \component c_bar > \component c_foobar > \stopbodymatter > \startappendices > \component c_endnotes > \stopappendices > > \stoptext > > \stopproduct My book has per page notes as well as more lengthy end notes which end up in a chapter at the end of the book. c_endnotes.tex looks like this: > \startcomponent c_endnotes > \product prd_book > \project project_teoada > > \starttext > \startbuffer [chapter:quote] > ToDo > \stopbuffer > \chapter[h:endnotes]{Notes} > > \placenotes[endnote] > > \stoptext > > \stopcomponent But I would at this stage like to compile the chapters per chapter. This works, but if I compile c_chapter1.tex, I do not get the endnotes of the chapter. How do I go about it that when compiling per chapter, I get the endnotes for that chapter at the end of that file, while when compiling the entire book they go at the end of the book as they should? Thanks, G

Hi everyone, Is it possible to pass a character to another in MKIV, I mean, like XeTeX in which one can pass one unicode character to another one (this is done in some mapping files with some lines in it of the form U+0030 <> U+06F0 )

Fontfeatures and latin script
by Wolfgang Schuster 28 Jul '08

28 Jul '08

Hi Hans, why was 'script=latn' removed from the three predefined fontfeatures default, oldstyle and smallcaps. A lot of fonts (free and commercial) need these features to enable kerning, ligatures and other features. Regards, Wolfgang
