Taco, thanks for the reply. I tried 'criterium=local' and it does not make a difference.

You can try you luck with \placepublications[criterium=local], see if that does something, but the behaviour is actually "as expected", yes. It is unlikely that I will ever truly fix this, because it wouls require a rather large rewrite.

placepublications in combination with ownnumber=yes
by M.J. Kallen 17 Jan '07

17 Jan '07

Hi Taco and everyone else, working with \placepublications[criterium=cite] inside sections, I noticed that the behavior is not the same when using a section with ownnumber=yes. The local list of publications does not appear in the latter case. I've made a sample test.tex and test.bib file to demonstrate this. It seems like this is the same behaviour as trying to use \placepublications[criterium=cite] inside a \subject, i.e. nothing appears. Is this behavior as expected?

texexec --mode=xxx --mode=yyy
by Peter Münster 16 Jan '07

16 Jan '07

Hello, is it possible to make "texexec --mode=xxx --mode=yyy" behave the same as "texexec --mode=xxx,yyy" ? I need it, because I have a server that automatically generates pdf-files via "texexec --mode=xxx ..." and the rest of the command-line can be anything found in the tex-fileheader (for example another --mode=yyy). Cheers, Peter -- http://pmrb.free.fr/contact/

Columns page-break problem
by Michal Kvasnicka 16 Jan '07

16 Jan '07

Good morning. I've just installed new ConTeXt (ver. 2006.08.08 21:51), and use perl TeXExec (ver. 5.4.3). Now my old macros using the columns environment have stopped working properly. Even when I type (n being a number) \startcolumns \dorcurse{n}{\input tufte} \stopcolumns a the page is broken after the \stopcolumns sometimes even when only 50-80 % of the page is filled ("a" is in the next page). In my previous installations (I haven't upgraded for a long time) it worked perfect. What's wrong? Was something changed? Haven't I installed the ConTeXt properly? What should I do? Your sincerely Michal Kvasnicka

How should I config the ConTeXt in order to use utf-8 encoding chinese characters?
by Hongyi Zhao 16 Jan '07

16 Jan '07

Dear all Now I can use the GBK encoding chinese characters in my ConTeXt, but if I want to use the utf-8 encoding chinese characters in my tex files, this is, I want the tex source file encoded by UTF-8, how should I config the ConTeXt. BYW, all the chinese fonts needed have been installed correctly by me, including the TTFs and the corresponding Type1 fonts.

multiple bibliographies
by Charles Doherty 16 Jan '07

16 Jan '07

Dear Thomas, Aditya, Taco, I am trying to produce a book-list for class using Taco's bib module. I would like to produce a separate list for each lecture / topic: Title of Lecture paragraph giving a synopsis of topic list of books/articles and this repeated for x number of lectures. I discovered a thread in the ConTeXt users mailing list for September last for something like this. Has there been a solution? If it would do what I want I would be grateful for a sample or instructions. I am using the latest bib module. Thanks, Charlie Doherty

Overfull \hbox query
by Alan Bowen 15 Jan '07

15 Jan '07

I have been processing a number of files using the same environment file. Each time, early in the log file I get the very same message: ... (/usr/local/teTeX/share/texmf.local/tex/context/base/pdfr-ec.tex) Overfull \hbox (13.2pt too wide) detected at line 63 [] system : module ancientgreek loaded (/Users/acbowen/Library/texmf/tex/context/third/greek/t-ancientgreek.tex loading : module ancientgreek ... The problem is that I can see no evidence in the document of an overfull \hbox. Moreover, if I change the font from SIL-Gentium to Latin Modern, the message goes away, though it returns once more if I use GFSDidot say (only the line number differs). Can anyone explain what is happening or suggest how I may proceed to determine what is happening and why? Alan
