extra page in presentation styles
by Hans van der Meer 09 Nov '05

09 Nov '05

Context presentation style problem: I didn't use the (green-)presentation style for quite some time. Now I suddenly get an EXTRA PAGE before the first \TitlePage. See below for a minimal example and the output produced. Does somebody happen to what is wrong or where I am wrong? By the way, the upgrade of 27-10-2005 context did not change this. I do not include the pdf-output, because it makes this posting too big to post without special moderator approval. But in my system it gives a blank first page and then the TitlePage as sheet numbered 2. Thanks.

Hello, I have problems with hyphenation when german öäü are in these words. I'm processing xml files which are in unicode. The font encoding for the pdf is EC (as I was told there are problems with OT1 encoded fonts). Any suggestions? Wolfgang

RE: [NTG-context] placing headings (solution on wiki)
by Idris Samawi Hamid 09 Nov '05

09 Nov '05

Hi gang, Ok, I figured out a solution and have posted it here (bottom of page): http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Headers_and_Footers I have never edited the wiki before so I hope the maintainer will check to make sure I did not do something wrong-) If there is a way to improve my solution please let me know! I think this is a nice sample file... Best Idris ================================================ Dear gang, I am having difficulties with heading placement. Consider the following sample file: =================headings.tex================== % output=pdf interface=en \setuppapersize [A5][A4] \setuplayout[width=middle, height=middle, footer=3\bodyfontsize, header=0pt, headerdistance=\bodyfontsize, bottom=3\bodyfontsize, location={middle,doublesided}, marking=on] \setuppagenumbering[alternative=doublesided, location={footer,middle}] \setupbottomtexts[pagenumber] \setupbottom[style=\tf,state=high] \setupfootertexts% [][section][chapter][] \setupfooter[style=\tf, state=high] \setuptexttexts% [margin][][section][chapter][] \setuptext[style=\tf, state=high] \setupinmargin[align=inner, style=\tfx\setupinterlinespace] \showframe \starttext \chapter{Ch. Knuth Knuth} \section{Sec. Knuth Knuth} \dorecurse{20}{\input knuth\par\ } \stoptext =============================================== This file should compile fine. Problem 1: I would like the headings in the footer to be flush with the top of the footer space instead of at the bottom; Problem 2: After making the footer headings flush with the top of the footer space, I would now like to mid-align the headings so each is just above the page number in the footer space (I thought this would be trivial but it's apparently not); Problem 3: I would like to have marginal headings: how do I i) keep the headings boxed within the margin width; ii) raise (or lower) the box containing the margin headings?

conTeXt distros on MACOSX
by andrea valle 09 Nov '05

09 Nov '05

(This derives form the thread about metafun.mem) As I have used till now only texshop, I was going to try the distro form pragma-ade. I downloaded it but I do not know what to do. As they are binaries I supposed I have not to compile anything. Should I simply put the folder in the right place? The Readme is quite vague. I put it in usr/local, tried to run from terminal the texexec bin but obtained: apples-Computer:/ apple$ /usr/local/tex/texmf-macosx/bin/texexec --h /usr/local/tex/texmf-macosx/bin/texexec: line 2: texmfstart: command not found What have I to do to use the most recent distro from pragma? More, I really cannot understand what's going on when I invoke "typeset context" form inside TeXShop. Luckily, something happens and I have my nice pdfs. This is default engine as stated by TeXShop. /usr/local/teTeX/bin/powerpc-apple-darwin-current If I go there, I find many binaries, and there's a texexec. If I invoke it directly form terminal I obtain: apples-Computer:/ apple$ /usr/local/teTeX/bin/powerpc-apple-darwin6.8/texexec -h `texexec.pl' not found. If I invoke texexec from terminal, default is located in sw/bin. It's 3.1 version: apples-Computer:/ apple$ which texexec /sw/bin/texexec apples-Computer:/ apple$ texexec -h TeXExec 3.1 - ConTeXt / PRAGMA ADE 1997-2002 (I know virtually nothing of bash, I grabbed some commands here and there) I'm getting a bit depressed... -a-

Trying to use Avant Garde - output font in very low resolution
by Kári Hreinsson 08 Nov '05

08 Nov '05

Hello, I was trying to use a new font (not Computer Modern) in my tex file and all I get is the font in a very low resolution (see http://www.nfmh.is/~kari/pub/context/flipp4.pdf) This output was the result of the following files: type-garde.tex: http://www.nfmh.is/~kari/pub/context/type-garde.tex flipp4.tex: http://www.nfmh.is/~kari/pub/context/flipp4.tex I created the typescript file according to the information in "ConTeXt and pdfTeX Beginners help file" (http://home.salamander.com/~wmcclain/context-help.html#selectfont) The interesting thing is that I can get the fonts with good quality if I only use TeX. The output of running the file flipp3.tex: http://www.nfmh.is/~kari/pub/context/flipp3.tex * with pdftex: http://www.nfmh.is/~kari/pub/context/flipp3.pdf * with texexec --pdf: http://www.nfmh.is/~kari/pub/context/flipp5.pdf So it seems that texexec is doing things a bit differently then pdftex but I can't figure out where or how to fix it. I also tried having the font inclusion in the same tex file and not in a typescript file with the same results: * http://www.nfmh.is/~kari/pub/context/flipp6.tex * http://www.nfmh.is/~kari/pub/context/flipp6.pdf Then there came one strange thing. When I tried the same thing with the Bitstream Charter Bold font as he did in the beginners help file I got a low resolution font when the inclusion was inside the same but that worked fine with the online texexec program (live.contextgarden.net) However, when I used the typescript file as he did in the help file I got good quality on the bistream font. I am quite lost now so any help is very appreciated! Output of texexec --version: TeXExec 5.4.3 - ConTeXt / PRAGMA ADE 1997-2005 texexec : TeXExec 5.4.3 - ConTeXt / PRAGMA ADE 1997-2005 texutil : TeXUtil 9.0.0 - ConTeXt / PRAGMA ADE 1992-2004 tex : pdfeTeX, 3.141592-1.30.3-2.2 (Web2C 7.5.5) context : ver: 2005.08.31 cont-en : ver: 2005.08.31 fmt: 2005.10.16 mes: english Thanks in advance, Kári Hreinsson

[Fwd: [dev-context] custom page number format]
by Taco Hoekwater 07 Nov '05

07 Nov '05

-------- Original Message -------- Subject: [dev-context] custom page number format Date: Tue, 11 Oct 2005 16:50:15 -0600 From: Stuart Jansen <sjansen(a)gurulabs.com> Organization: Guru Labs, L.C. To: ConTeXt Development Mailing List <dev-context(a)ntg.nl> I've scoured the list archive and the wiki trying to figure out how to create an interactive table of contents that includes the chapter number as part of the page number. I'm looking for a solution that given something like: ===== \starttext Table of Contents \placelist[...] % full TOC \chapter{One} \placelist[...] % local TOC \section{a} \section{b} \section{c} \chapter{Two} \placelist[...] % local TOC \section{c} \section{d} \starttext ===== produces something like: ===== Table of Contents One 1-1 Two 2-1 a 1-2 d 2-2 b 1-3 e 2-4 c 1-7 One % page 1-1 a 1-2 b 1-3 c 1-7 a % page 1-2 b % page 1-3 c % page 1-7 Two % page 2-1 d 2-2 e 2-4 d % page 2-2 e % page 2-4 ===== I've found solutions to print the page number on individual pages using the chapter-pagenumber format. I can get \placelist to produce the format I want. It's easy to produce interactive lists using the pre-defined formats. But I haven't been able to produce an interactive custom formatted list. And at any rate, my solutions are kind of ugly leading me to believe there's probably an easier way I've missed. How should I be doing this? -- Stuart Jansen <sjansen(a)gurulabs.com> Guru Labs, L.C. _______________________________________________ dev-context mailing list dev-context(a)ntg.nl http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/dev-context
