Maybe I can try with an older version, but I don't have it. I tried with 3.31 which resides in CTAN, but this is not compliant any more with the new version of gs.

I can get no older version to test. Although it crashes, the resulting PDF file after 2 runs seems to be OK. Mojca

(monotonic) Greek
by Adam Lindsay 28 Jun '05

28 Jun '05

Hey all. Hans and I are working on sorting out the greek Antykwa Torunska font support, and I noticed in the existing files that there is a fairly minimal iso-8859-7 greek encoding already implemented (enco-grk). Here's the question: does anyone encode their fonts using this? Is anyone so dependent on it that it would be a bad thing if it went away and was replaced with a (mostly) compatible new greek encoding (sort of iso-8859-7 married with TeXnANSI)? Speak up now, because Hans is in a cut-out-the-legacy-crap mood... ;) -- =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Adam T.

deviant bodyfont size query
by Alan Bowen 28 Jun '05

28 Jun '05

Until the last three updates to ConTeXt, I was getting output without error messages inspite of the fact that I was calling for bodyfont sizes of 10.5 pt and 9.5 pt. Now, when I process the same documents I get error messages and the output has 10pt and 9pt text where I had originally asked for the deviant sizes. Unfortunately, this output is smaller than I was getting before. Moreover, when I call for bodyfont sizes of 11pt and 10pt now, the output is larger. The problem is that i ned to maintain the appearance of the documents that I have been typesetting. So what was I getting before—how were these deviant bodysizes rendered—and, more important, does anyone know how can I get the same result now? Cheers, Alan

columnset balancing
by Vit Zyka 27 Jun '05

27 Jun '05

Hello Hans, appologize my boring again with the same question about columnset balancing. But I would like to know what is the current stage of this feature. Seeing the code it seems to me some work in this direction was done but due to very complex and tricky stuff I am not able to recognize, how far from the goal it is. Actually, what is my goal design? + two column layout + float spanning one or two columns (both perfectly fullfilled by columnsets) - each chapter head spans two columns (it assumes stop columns, balancing, continuing on the same page without pagebreak, put chapter head, start columnset on the rest of the page) It is feasible or I will have to abjured this idea? Thank you for your responce in advance.

avoiding unfortunate line breaking
by Stuart Jansen 27 Jun '05

27 Jun '05

Below is an exaggerated case I haven't been able to solve. Assuming the frame can't be enlarged, the URL can't be manually broken, and extending outside the frame a tiny bit is okay, how can I prevent the line break inserted between the bullet and the url in the example below? \starttext \framed[height=2in,width=3in,align={right,broad},frame=on]{ \startitemize[1,serried,packed,joinedup] \item{}foo \item{}bar \item\bgroup\tt{}http://areallyreallylongdomainname.org/index.html \egroup \item{}baz \item{}qux \stopitemize} \stoptext -- Stuart Jansen <sjansen(a)gurulabs.com> Guru Labs, L.C.
