> Is it on windows? It seems -- unless your tests too are on linux Yes, it is on windows (Acrobat Reader 7.0.8 and 7.0.9) I tried with ghostscript 8.53, and all is ok. Don't know what with AcroRead 8. Wolfgang

That's what I see with (Adobe Reader 7.0.8; ConTeXt 2007.01.02 13:44). It depends on rulethickness and gets printed!!! Wolfgang

ConTeXt equivalent of plain tex method of loading fonts
by Aditya Mahajan 13 Jan '07

13 Jan '07

Hi, I was using rsfs (RalfSmithFormalScript) using the definition \def\mathrsfs#1{\text{\definedfont[RalfSmithFormalScript]#1\/}} rsfs comes in three design sizes, 10, 7, and 5. However $\max_{x \in \mathrsfs{X}}$ uses rsfs10 rather than 7. This is because RalfSmithFormalScript is a synonyn for rsfs10. If I use the plain tex method of loading rsfs \font\tenscr = rsfs10 at 12pt %bodyfontsize \font\sevenscr = rsfs7 at 9pt %scriptfontsize \font\fivescr = rsfs5 at 7pt %scriptscriptfontsize \skewchar\tenscr = '177 \skewchar\sevenscr = '177 \skewchar\fivescr = '177 \newfam\scrfam \textfont\scrfam = \tenscr \scriptfont\scrfam = \sevenscr \scriptscriptfont\scrfam = \fivescr \def\scr{\fam\scrfam} then I get rsfs7 in the subscripts. So, what is the ConTeXt equivalent of the above plain tex method of loading rsfs? Aditya

exit codes of texexec and texsync
by Peter Münster 12 Jan '07

12 Jan '07

Hello, the exit code of texsync is now 1 in all cases: success or failure of rsync. It should be 0 on success. The exit code of texexec is now 1 on success and 0 on failure. It should be the other way round. Cheers, Peter -- http://pmrb.free.fr/contact/

Footnote lost
by Mike Bird 12 Jan '07

12 Jan '07

In this example, the first footnote number appears correctly in the body of the page but the first footnote is never placed in the footer. The second footnote is handled correctly. Therefore the first footnote is not merely deferred but lost. \starttext \setupquotation[right={''\footnote{First}}] \startquotation Loses footnote. \stopquotation \setupquotation[right={''}] \quotation{OK}\footnote{Second} \stoptext --Mike Bird
