re-using ConTeXt typescripts ?
by Steffen Wolfrum 11 Jul '05

11 Jul '05

Hi Adam, the simplicity of XeTeX's font handling is amazing -- when starting from scratch. But I am wondering how can I continue to use the typescripts (and virtual files) that I used to use with ConTeXt?! texexec --xtx --example.file ends in an error log containing: This is METAFONT, Version 2.71828 (Web2C 7.5.4) kpathsea: Running mktexmf AGaramond-Regular ! I can't find file `AGaramond-Regular'. As I do not have *any* idea where to start searching for my mistake (resp. the place where changes have to be made) I dare to send you a complete minimal example (that worked with pure texexec --pdf --example.file) Any feedback might probably help me... Thank you, Steffen I have an example-file, a typescript-file and a map-file. The example-file goes like this: \def\typescriptfiles{type-GMTHKopie.tex} \usetypescript[AGaramondOldStyle] \setupbodyfont[normaltype,rm,10.2pt]%klein:10 - mittel:10.2 - gross:10.5pt \starttext Test WQ916 \stoptext The type-GMTHKopie.tex: \loadmapfile[padKopie.map] \starttypescript [serif] [agaramond] [ec] \definefontsynonym [AGaramond-Regular] [padr9e] [encoding=uc] % was encoding=ec before xetex \definefontsynonym [AGaramond-Italic] [padri9e] [encoding=uc] % =ec \definefontsynonym [AGaramond-Bold] [padb9e] [encoding=uc] % =ec \definefontsynonym [AGaramond-BoldItalic] [padbi9e] [encoding=uc] % =ec \definefontsynonym [AGaramond-Semibold] [pads9e] [encoding=uc] % =ec \definefontsynonym [AGaramond-SemiboldItalic] [padsi9e] [encoding=uc] % =ec \stoptypescript \starttypescript [serif] [agaramond] [name] \definefontsynonym [Serif] [AGaramond-Regular] \definefontsynonym [SerifBold] [AGaramond-Semibold]%[AGaramond-Bold-OSF] \definefontsynonym [SemiBold] [AGaramond-Semibold] \definefontsynonym [SerifItalic] [AGaramond-Italic] \definefontsynonym [SerifBoldItalic] [AGaramond-SemiboldItalic]%[AGaramond-BoldItalic-OSF] \definefontsynonym [SemiBoldItalic] [AGaramond-SemiboldItalic] \stoptypescript \starttypescript [serif][allbold][all] \definefontsynonym [Serif] [SerifBold] \definefontsynonym [SerifItalic] [SerifBoldItalic] \stoptypescript \starttypescript [AGaramondOldStyle] \definetypeface [normaltype] [rm] [serif] [agaramond] [default] [encoding=uc] % =ec \definetypeface [boldtype] [rm] [serif] [agaramond,allbold] [default] [encoding=uc] % =ec \stoptypescript The padKopie.map: % Adobe Garamond padr8r AGaramond-Regular "TeXBase1Encoding ReEncodeFont" <8r.enc <padr8a.pfb padri8r AGaramond-Italic "TeXBase1Encoding ReEncodeFont" <8r.enc <padri8a.pfb pads8r AGaramond-Semibold "TeXBase1Encoding ReEncodeFont" <8r.enc <pads8a.pfb padsi8r AGaramond-SemiboldItalic "TeXBase1Encoding ReEncodeFont" <8r.enc <padsi8a.pfb padb8r AGaramond-Bold "TeXBase1Encoding ReEncodeFont" <8r.enc <padb8a.pfb padbi8r AGaramond-BoldItalic "TeXBase1Encoding ReEncodeFont" <8r.enc <padbi8a.pfb

bug in \startlines (2005.06.27)

Hi there, I've spotted a bug: this will put TeX in a loop: \starttext \startlines A\ test \stoplines \stoptext because "\ " expands to "\ ". Greetings, Taco

A couple of questions on math customizing.
by Brooks Moses 11 Jul '05

11 Jul '05

I'm working on doing my own math alignment routines. After a lot of poking about in core-mat.tex, I came to the conclusion that \startinnermath and \stopinnermath were probably the things to modify, and the "most polite" way to do that was by defining my own alignment name. So, the following does what I want for a test case: (Note that \defineinnermathhandler is a shortcut to define versions of \startinnermath and \stopinnermath corresponding to the given alignment.) \starttext \defineinnermathhandler{test} {\let\doplaceformulanumber\empty} {} \setupformulas[align=test] \placeformula{a} \startformula c^2 = a^2 + b^2 \eqno{\formulanumber} \stopformula \stoptext First, if I want \stopinnermath to handle the formula number, I have to somehow turn off the \doplaceformulanumber that gets called at the beginning of \dostopformula. Redefining the macro to \empty in \startinnermath works, but it seems a bit inelegant. Is there a better way? Second, if I move that \eqno{\formulanumber} up into \stopinnermath, as in the following sample, I get an error about "\eqno not allowed in math mode", despite the fact that it seems to be doing the exact same thing as the previous example. \starttext \defineinnermathhandler{test} {\let\doplaceformulanumber\empty} {\eqno{\formulanumber}} \setupformulas[align=test] \placeformula{a} \startformula c^2 = a^2 + b^2 \stopformula \stoptext Then, if I enclose the \eqno in an if statement borrowed from the just-erased definition of \doplaceformulanumber, it works again: \starttext \unprotect \defineinnermathhandler{test} {\let\doplaceformulanumber\empty} {\eqno{\formulanumber}} {\doifelse \@@fmlocation \v!left% {\normalleqno {\formulanumber}}% {\normalreqno {\formulanumber}}} \protect \setupformulas[align=test] \placeformula{a} \startformula c^2 = a^2 + b^2 \stopformula \stoptext What's up with that, and what do I need to do to be able to put a bare \eqno in the \stopinnermath macro? Thanks! - Brooks

hi, I see many books typeset with LaTeX, but what about ConTeXt? I haven't seen any books typset using ConTeXt (excluding ConTeXt manuals, of courz :P).

top and bottom options of \framed
by Radhelorn 10 Jul '05

10 Jul '05

Hello All! I have problem with \framed command: top and bottom seems to do nothing. According to manual this must produce top aligned framed text: \framed [height=4cm,top=,bottom=\vss] {framed text} Anything I type after top= and bottom= is lost in oblivion. ConTeXt even not warn about unknown commands in these options. -- Radhelorn <radhelorn(a)mail.ru>

Math bug: \tracemathtrue doesn't work without alignment.
by Brooks Moses 10 Jul '05

10 Jul '05

I was recently going through the core-mat.tex file (the one from teTeX 3.0.whatever-it-is) and trying out some of the examples given in the comments, and came across an odd little bug. Consider the following: \tracemathtrue \setupformulas[align=middle] \placeformula \startformula \fakeformula \stopformula This works fine. However, if I take out the "align=" argument from \setupformulas, the tracing boxes disappear. Meanwhile, I'm trying to figure out exactly how the alignment works in formulas, from a programming viewpoint. What's a good place to start with this? - Brooks

Hiding the content (drawing empty boxes?)
by Mojca Miklavec 08 Jul '05

08 Jul '05

Hello, Some TeX challenge (probably not solvable?): for gurus only. Is there a way to somehow \starthidden ... \stophidden, which would leave exactly the same amount of blank space as if the content would be typeset? Adam suggested to use transparent font colour, but this doesn't solve the problem as this won't stop the images, frames and nested \color[red]{font color changing commands} being displayed. I tried to adapt the macro \demobox from the TeXBOOK which processes token by token and draws an empty box instead of that token. It works perfectly as long as there is only plain text between the braces, but as soon there is something more complex, it breaks. This behaviour is probably to be expected, but I have no idea how to let all the commands do what they are expected to do and only prohibit placing any boxes with some content. Thanks, Mojca
