Killing the space after a section.
by John R. Culleton 13 Apr '07

13 Apr '07

I have the file set up with no parindent and one blank line between paragraphs. but I want to kill the extra space after \section headers. The current definition is: \setuphead[section][number=no,style=\SectSans,page=no,after={\vskip 2sp}] ...but the blank line remains. Do I need to use a negative \vskip? \SectSans is a font I set up (bold, sans serif and slightly larger. ) If there is a way to specify both bold and sans serif at a larger (e.g. \tfb) size I would be happy to use that instead. -- John Culleton Able Indexing and Typesetting Precision typesetting (tm) at reasonable cost.

macro for api-documentation
by Janko Hauser 13 Apr '07

13 Apr '07

Hello everyone, good morning europe, I want to generate an API- documentation. For this I use a table (bTABLE) for every function definition. That's a lot of code, which is in part dynamic (number of rows for example depends on number of arguments). Here is a simple example, but I will need colors and different fonts, different lines between in/out and so on. \startalignment[middle] \midaligned{\ss \bTABLE \bTR \bTD[nc=3] validateRegistration \eTD \eTR \bTR \bTD[nr=3] \rotate[rotation=90]{Input} \eTD \bTD parameter1 \eTD \bTD Beschreibung zu Parameter 1 \eTD \eTR \bTR \bTD parameter2 \eTD \bTD Beschreibung zu Parameter 2 \eTD \eTR \bTR \bTD parameter2 \eTD \bTD Beschreibung zu Parameter 2 \eTD \eTR \bTR \bTD[nr=3] \rotate[rotation=90]{Output} \eTD \bTD parameter1 \eTD \bTD Beschreibung zu Parameter 1 \eTD \eTR \bTR \bTD parameter2 \eTD \bTD Beschreibung zu Parameter 2 \eTD \eTR \bTR \bTD parameter3 \eTD \bTD Beschreibung zu Parameter 3 \eTD \eTR \eTABLE} \stopalignment Are there any examples to do this more generally or better approaches to set this up?

broken section number
by Wolfgang Werners-Lucchini 13 Apr '07

13 Apr '07

Hallo! I need help with referencing a subsubsection-number and the following setup: --------------------------------------- \setuphead[chapter][number=no] \setuphead[subsection][resetnumber=no] \setuphead[subsubsection][ numbercommand={\determineheadnumber[section]\currentheadnumber .}] \setupsection[section][previousnumber=no,conversion=Romannumerals] \setupsection[subsection][previousnumber=no,conversion=Characters] \setupsection[subsubsection][previousnumber=no] \starttext \section{Eins} \subsection{Zuerst} \subsubsection{Test} \subsubsection[LAB]{Test} \subsubsection{Test} \subsection{Danach} \subsubsection{Test} \subsubsection{Test} \section{Zwei} \subsection{Und dann} \subsubsection{Test} In \in[LAB] % <---- problem \stoptext --------------------------------------- The numbering of the subsub's is prefixed (arabic, not roman) and reset by the section-number (not the subsection-number). This works. The problem is, that section-number-prefix is not used for the reference. What is the solution? Btw. I have not found any explanations for the 'prefix' and the 'ownnumber' options. Where can I read and learn about these options? Wolfgang

An easy way to test OpenType fonts with Context/Xetex from scratch under Windows (XP): 1. Get Texlive 2007 2. Install the Context collection with the Texlive Manager (Xetex is included) 3. Create a little test file: \enableregime[utf] \definetypeface[myface][ss][Xsans][Arial]%or any else font in your /windows/fonts folder; run "fc-list >namelist.txt" to get them all \setupbodyfont[myface, 12pt] \starttext Hello World! \stoptext 4. Run "texexec --xtx test.tex" Sources: http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Fonts_in_XeTeX http://www.fsci.fuk.kindai.ac.jp/kakuto/win32-ptex/web2c75-e.html _______________________________________________________________ SMS schreiben mit WEB.DE FreeMail - einfach, schnell und kostenguenstig.

Hello, Thanks a lot for people who replied to my "OpenType in Windows" topic. I have learned a lot about perspectives, but... can someone make it clear -- CAN I use OpenType fonts with ConTeXt on Windows right NOW (without conversion to other formats), and, if possible, what I have to do to achieve it? Thanks. -- Best regards, Vyatcheslav Yatskovsky

xetext-pdftex differences
by Steffen Wolfrum 12 Apr '07

12 Apr '07

Hi, as there are some on this list working/playing with xetex/context: Where do I go when I experience differences between context/pdftext and context/xetex? For example with context/xetex I get ... ! Undefined control sequence. \stopframedtext ->\dostopframedtext ... and I do get "SS" instead of eszett ("ß") with the following: \usetypescriptfile[type-gyr] \usetypescript[times][ec] \mainlanguage[de] \enableregime[utf] \setupbodyfont[times,9pt] Hello Thermes! 1234567890 üööäß Whom to tell this? Steffen P.S. Besides these details it is amazing how smooth ConTeXt files run with XeTeX!!

default pdf version in the current ConTeXt release
by Zhichu Chen 12 Apr '07

12 Apr '07

Hi, I don't know if it occurs to you ever, but once I update ConTeXt to the current release, my pdf file could be opened by Acrobat reader and shows several blank pages. But Foxit reader seems take it pretty well and everything is showed like I imaged. I'm using Windows by the way. Before I gave up Acrobat reader and turned to Foxit reader, I made my last try: I put \pdfoptionpdfminorversion=3 in my source file and the pdf file shows correctly in Acrobat reader now. When I changed the number to 4, it shows with some problems. When I changed it to 5 and higher, it shows only blank pages. So, just FYI, I suppose the default pdf minor version is 5, and if you have a display problem with your pdf files, try to make it lower. -- Sincerely yours, Chen ---------------------------------------------------------------- Zhi-chu Chen | Shanghai Synchrotron Radiation Facility No. 2019 | Jialuo Rd. | Jiading | Shanghai | P.R.
