aligning of tables and tabulate
by Radhelorn 13 Jul '05

13 Jul '05

Hello! Maybe this is a stupid question, but according to manual this should align tables right: \starttext \setuptabulate[align=right] some text before \starttabulate[|l|l|] \HL \NC test \NC test \NR \NC test \NC test \NR \HL \stoptabulate in the middle \setuptables[align=right] \starttable[|l|l|] \HL \NC test \NC test \NC\AR \NC test \NC test \NC\AR \HL \stoptable after after \stoptext I've tried left, right, middle, center... to no effect. Both tables remain left aligned. Thanks for your patience. -- Radhelorn <radhelorn(a)mail.ru>

Re: [NTG-context] Re: re-using ConTeXt typescripts ?

Hi Adam, sure, you've mentioned AGaramondPro. But I have the AGaramond+Expert fonts (Type1) installed in my texmf tree with Walther Schmidts TFM and VF files (see the padxxxx-files in the typescript I've sent). http://www.dante.de/CTAN/fonts/metrics/w-a-schmidt/pad.zip (or in general but German http://home.vr-web.de/was/fonts.html) And this is the crucial point: for theses files provide e.g. optimized (German) kerning information (and more) I really don't want to miss them! And I have absolutely no idea how to access theses files. Isn't is possible when processing with XeTeX to continue using those precious hand-made virtual fonts?

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
