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

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi All, (I've repeated this post, because I didn't see any answers. Sample file included, you can easily check if I'm wrong or right).

The program below > produces the attached PDF. Just something you missed in the manual. You need \completepublications[criterium=all] (because the module also supports per-sectionblock lists) Best, Taco

placing a tikz/pgf figure
by M.J. Kallen 10 Jan '07

10 Jan '07

Hi all, I'm trying to determine how to best insert a figure/graph created using the tikz/pgf module (I'm using v1.10). The attached sample file compares the result of just using \placefigure and \placefigure with \startcombination[1*1]. In the first case, the result is not centered (which should be default in ConTeXt, if I'm correct) but flushed left. Only if I place the figure inside a \startcombination by using \input, do I get the desired result. If I use \externalfigure inside the \startcombination, I again get an incorrect result. In theory, the first version should work but some special settings (using e.g. \useexternalfigure) may be required. I do not know why the second version does work. Does anyone have an idea? Thanks, Maarten-Jan __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo! Mail has the best spam protection around http://mail.yahoo.com

Dear all, Consider this minimal example: \defineframedtext[container][width=local, corner=round, frame=off, rightframe=on ] \starttext \startcontainer test \stopcontainer \stoptext Substantially I copied it from cont-eni. It seems that it doesn't work. On my system I have no frame at all. ?

bib module -- \maybeyear
by Robin.Kirkham＠csiro.au 10 Jan '07

10 Jan '07

Hi all, I'm using numerical citations and reference lists, and I have the bib module doing almost everything I want, except that the years in the reference list have a, b, c ... appended. On this mailing list, it was suggested that "maybeyear=off" as an argument to \setuppublicationslist should do it, but it does not seem to. The discussion on that topic seems unresolved. I've also tried \def\maybeyear#1{} in a few places, which does not help either. I'm using ConTeXt ver: 2007.01.02 13:44 MK II fmt: 2007.1.8 int: english/english. It's my first ConTeXt project. Am I doing something wrong? Program below. Robin \enableregime[utf] \setupoutput[pdf] \usemodule[bib] \setuppublications[ refcommand=num, sorttype=bbl, criterium=all, numbering=short ] \setupbibtex[database={../references},sort=author] \setuppublicationlist[ authoretallimit=100, artauthoretallimit=100, maybeyear=off ] \starttext \placepublications \stoptext
