pb inserting multipage documents
by olivier Turlier 27 Dec '06

27 Dec '06

Hi everybody, I'm experiencing pb with the latest stable version : insertion of multipage external document leads to the rendering of only the first page, with this command : \getfiguredimensions[doc-guidecstb-sol-tecnic-rt2000-gobck.pdf] \dorecurse{\noffigurepages}{\externalfigure[doc-guidecstb-sol-tecnic-rt2000-gobck.pdf] [width=\textwidth,height=\textheight][page=\recurselevel]} If you are interested, you can test source and see differences at this url : http://tebcado.free.fr/context-quest/01/ TIA for the answers. -- olivier Turlier

The problems is that you didn't specify the proper encoding of your font, so TeX doesn't know that your font is cyrillic. \font\myfirstfont=t2a-n021003l \myfirstfont is a plain TeX command, you have to use a ConTeXt command for that. This is a way to go then: \starttypescript [map] [timescyr] [t2a] \loadmapfile [\typescriptthree-urw-timescyr.map] \stoptypescript \starttypescript [serif] [timescyr] [name] \definefontsynonym [Serif] [...] \stoptypescript \starttypescript [serif] [timescyr] [t2a] \definefontsynonym [...] [\typescriptthree-progbot] [encoding=\typescriptthree] \stoptypescript \starttypescript [serif] [t2a] \definetypeface [...] [rm] [serif] [timescyr] [default] [encoding=\typescripttwo] \stoptypescript That's only a rought sketch. If you don't get any further using the existing documentation and wiki, and if nobody else is willing to help, I can try to complete the definitions if you ask again, but someone is willing to do that instead ... I won't object. (Although I suspect that there is a shorter way to tell to TeX which encoding is being used for a specific font.) Mojca

When I put \enableregime[cp1251] (I use that very encoding) at the top of my script, the output represents transliterated text (all Cyrillic glyphs are replaced with corresponding Latin letters).

Hi Vyatcheslav, (I intercepted your message because it was a bit too big for the list) From Vyatcheslav Yatskovsky <yatskovsky(a)gmail.com>: > > This is the INF file for my Times-Roman: > > FontName (Times-Roman) > FullName (Times Roman) > AppleName (Times) > AppleFONDID 20 > FamilyName (Times) > version (001.007) > isFixedPitch false > CharacterSet (isoadobe) > Encoding (StandardEncoding) > ItalicAngle 0 > CapHeight 662 > UnderlinePosition -100 > UnderlineThickness 50 > StemWidth 84 > Serif true > Pi false > SuperiorBaseline 270 > MSMenuName (Times) > VPMenuName (Times Roman) > WORDMenuName (Times) > VPTypefaceID 14 > VPStyle (N) > PCFileNamePrefix (TIR__) > PCLTypefaceID 20485 > PCLStrokeWeight 0 > PCLStyle 0 I am sorry to say that this really looks like the INF of the standard Times-Roman font that does not have cyrillic glyphs (and the same was true of your log file). Can you explain to the people on the list how you could successfully use cyrillic, what operating system you are using, and in which previewer exactly? I myself am lost as to what is going wrong exactly, but I find it hard to believe that the previewer is using tir_____.pfb, from the information you have provided so far. Best, Taco

ConTeXt on Debian: The wiki entry
by Frank Küster 26 Dec '06

26 Dec '06

Hi everybody, this mail has a double purpose. At the end, there's a call for testers of a new (planned) Debian ConTeXt package that would be updated more frequently than now (at least in unstable and testing), where ConTeXt is tied to teTeX's or TeXlive's release cycles. But first, I'd like to talk about http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Debian_installation Are some of the people around who wrote this? I found some information in it misleading and in part just wrong (this has already been pointed out two weaks ago by "plink"), and have started to edit the page to change the parts that give us, the Debian TeX maintaines, most headache. But in the lower part, "Steps to finish a first context upgrade", I felt lost. If these steps are really needed, then there's something seriously wrong in Debian's (and probably upstream's) packaging of ConTeXt. Therefore I didn't just change the text to reflect how I think it should work. Instead, we should try to figure out together whether it in fact does not work as it should, and then fix the Debian packages (hopefully still possible for etch). So the specific question I have are: - Is it intended that context formats end up in $TEXMF/web2c/pdfetex/? If yes, why is that so? If not, we should rather find out why it happens and fix it. - Why does it make a difference if the formats are created by fmtutil instead of texexec (Except for the output directory)? Should the upstream packaging be changed so that fmtutil is never used, but texexec, or should fmtutil be fixed to produce the same as texexec? Finally, here comes Norbert Preining's Call for Testers: Dear all! We = Debian TeX maintainers searching for users of the Debian Operating Systems which are also using ConTeXt. Currently Debian etch (testing) and sid (unstable) contains packages for TeX live 2005. But this contains a bit old ConTeXt version, so users are asking us to update ConTeXt. We have prepared a updated ConTeXt package for Debian, based on the latest released version (2006.08.08), and would ask you to help use testing, as we are not experienced in ConTeXt type settings. I checked some simple documents from the ConTeXt Garden, and they worked, but more detailed testing would be nice. If you have interest, please contact us at debian-tex-maint(a)lists.debian.org or, if you have a bit experience, you can straight away add deb http://www.tug.org/texlive/Debian/ context/ to your /etc/apt/sources.list file and install context. After this, please tell us our experiences/failures/suggestions. Thanks a lot and all the best Regards, Frank -- Dr. Frank Küster Single Molecule Spectroscopy, Protein Folding @ Inst. f.

Spacing after defined word: beginner's question
by cormullion＠mac.com 25 Dec '06

25 Dec '06

This must be a beginner's question, but I can't find the answer to it in the manuals... Take this ConTeXt source: -- \def\Acme{% {\ss\sc ACME}} Welcome from \Acme. \Acme make fine products. -- When this is made into a PDF, it looks like this: -- Welcome from ACME. ACMEmake fine products. -- - because I didn't have a space in the definition, I don't get a space in the second sentence, but the period didn't interfere with the execution of the first occurrence. But if I put a space in the definition after the 'E', I get this: -- Welcome from ACME . ACME make fine products. -- - and there's a space after the first 'E', which I don't want, even though there is now a space after the second... What am I doing wrong?

Installing Cyrillic font
by Vyatcheslav Yatskovsky 25 Dec '06

25 Dec '06

Hello I'm looking for help with installing the Adobe Times font with Cyrillic support. I have TIR_____.PFB and all other companion files. It surely contains Cyrillic glyphs because I can type Russian using a font viewer. I run the texfont utility as follows texfont -fontroot=e:/texmf --sourcepath=. --vendor=adobe --encoding=t2a --collection=timescyr --makepath --install and it performs good. But created t2a-adobe-timescyr.pdf test file shows no Cyrillic glyphs (it seems like there are vacant empty spaces from 192 to 255). Also I cannot make use of Russian in my context scripts. (Latin goes well) I'm ready to send any additional relevant info. Best regards, Vyatcheslav Yatskovsky

Dear Aditya Thank you for your tip. After adding the line "\setupbackgrounds[header][text] [bottomframe=on,topframe=on]", I got lines of whole length. However, [rule=on] option only draw vertical line as long as the paragraph not to the bottom. Please test once more using a short paragraph(3-4 lines) instead of \knuth. Thank you again.
