If not, then do you really want use Latin Modern oldstyle figures? Also, why no \usetypescriptfile line?

oldstyle figures
by Eckhart Guthöhrlein 18 Apr '05

18 Apr '05

Hi all, is there a way to set up oldstyle figures as the default? I have found some stuff searching the archive, but it doesn't really help me to get along. And does it work with the \digits command? Greetings, -- Eckhart

justification
by Jörg Hagmann 18 Apr '05

18 Apr '05

Dear list members, After months of trying to figure out what TeX, ConTeXt etc is and how to install everything needed I finally produced my first document. I was thrilled when I saw real pdf pages with footnotes and all! However, I noticed the following problem (no doubt the first of many to come): justification on the right is far from perfect - there are lines sticking out. After going through the manual, I decided that "\setuptolerance[horizontal,verystrict]" in the setup area should do the trick, but it didn't. Any suggestions? (I set up ConTeXt on two Macs, once with teTeX and once with TeXLive, and on a Mac running Mandrakelinux and teTeX - the result was the same (same lines sticking out) on all of them). I am currently writing a textbook and I am looking forward to using ConTeXt. PD Dr.med.

bug with \setupsynonyms
by Eckhart Guthöhrlein 18 Apr '05

18 Apr '05

Hi, formatting synonyms with \setupsynonyms does not work when these are part of e.g. section headers. Example: \abbreviation{XYZ}{whatever} \setupabbreviations[textstyle=bold,synonymstyle=slanted] \starttext This should be bold/slanted: \XYZ/\infull{XYZ}. And it is. \section{This ist not: \XYZ/\infull{XYZ}} \stoptext I think this is not as it should be. Greetings, -- Eckhart

Western transliteration of Sanskrit
by Steffen Wolfrum 18 Apr '05

18 Apr '05

Hi, I'd like to have a table with all available commands (like \d{..} for macron) that support diacritic signs needed for western transliteration of Sanskrit. Especially the dot above an n or m: In an old TUGboat article (Volume 20 (1999), No. 2) that I found by Google I read that the dot above an n should be "n (Vulthius). But here it stays the " (like the German Umlaut). Anybody knows more? Steffen

custom verbatim inside tabulate
by Hartmut Henkel 17 Apr '05

17 Apr '05

Hi, is there a way to use a custom verbatim inside a tabulate environment? See the problem: \starttext \definetype [esctype] \setuptype [esctype] [option=commands,escape=@] \def\currenttex{3.141592} \def\currentpdftex{1.21b} It works here: \esctype {This is pdfeTeX, Version @currenttex-@currentpdftex} \starttabulate[|p|] \esctype {This is pdfeTeX, Version @currenttex-@currentpdftex} \NC \NR \stoptabulate \stoptext Regards, Hartmut
