Hello, Thank you all. I will try in a moment. A stupid question: should I update both context/current/cont-tmf.zip and context/current/cont-win.zip every time or only the first? -- Best regards, Vyatcheslav Yatskovsky

by zs 21 Aug '07

21 Aug '07

Hi, I would like to have font bigger than 12pt. When I try following, commented line causes error message "Math formula deleted: Insufficient symbol fonts." while compiled with luatex. Could you tell me why and how to fix it? Thanks ZS \starttext \setupbodyfont[rm,13pt] Some reaction O\low{2} $\rightarrow$ O\low{3}. %Some reaction\footnote{ O\low{2} $\rightarrow$ O\low{3} }. \stoptext

MetaFun and different body font size
by Oliver Buerschaper 20 Aug '07

20 Aug '07

Dear folks, I'm wondering how to communicate a different default bodyfont size to MetaFun ... consider this: --- \setupbodyfont[32pt] \starttext \input ward \startuseMPgraphic{test} draw unitsquare scaled BodyFontSize; draw textext.rt("Test"); draw btex \TeX etex xshifted 2*BodyFontSize; \stopuseMPgraphic \useMPgraphic{test} \stoptext --- Somehow MetaFun doesn't recognize the larger body font size :-( What can I do?

Greetings all, Has anyone had any luck getting the lilypond module to work with mkiv/ luatex engine? It fails for me (works fine with mkii/pdftex). I can send along some log info if others have found it to work. Regards, David

Mysterious clipping for shaded MetaFun page background

Dear folks, can anyone reproduce this? (Live ConTeXt on the garden seems to run into this \faststartcolor thing ... with pdfTeX.)

Learning ConTeXt
by Istvan Hollerbach 20 Aug '07

20 Aug '07

Hi Everybody, I want to learn ConTeXt, but 'cont-enp.pdf' and 'mp-cb-en.pdf' do not explain many things in detail, for example the parameters of command \setuplayout on the page 24 of cont-enp.pdf. Or am I careless? How shall I start to learn? And how shall I go on learning? Best regards, Istvan Hollerbach

TEXapplication

Hallo, while playing with m-pstric I realized that there is an other problem. m-pstric uses the TEXapplication start/stop mechanism, but the resulting box has no extend. The commented version which does not make use of TEXapplication works ok. Wolfgang

Uppercase Greek in large fontsize
by Shen Chen 20 Aug '07

20 Aug '07

Hi all, I had a problem with typesetting uppercase Greek in large fontsize. I am doing a screen presentation so I want to work with 18pt body font size. But uppercase greek letters all disappear whenever I use anything bigger than 12pt. All small case greek letter are fine, though. Wondering if there is a simple fix to it. Thanks a lot! \setupbodyfont[roman,18pt] \starttext Hello world! $$\delta \Delta \alpha \Alpha \gamma \Gamma $$ \stoptext Best regards, Shen Chen

ConTeXt possibilities
by Istvan Hollerbach 20 Aug '07

20 Aug '07

Dear Everybody, My name is Istvan Hollerbach. I am still looking at ConTeXt. Are usable with ConTeXt only modules found at http://modules.contextgarden.net/, or which usable are with plain TeX as well? I think of xypic for example. Can I write a document for example in Sanskrit? Being a beginner, of course I will neither use xypic for a some length of time, nor I will write a document in Sanskrit. I am only interested in possibilities compared to LaTeX. I write this mail again, because I have changed the reply-to. Best regards, Istvan Hollerbach
