\placefigure bug
by Taco Hoekwater 13 Dec '04

13 Dec '04

Hans, The following gives me and undefined reference: %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% \starttext A test of a figure, see \in {figure} [figa] \placefigure [figa] {The caption} {\externalfigure [02.jpg]} \stoptext %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% It only works correctly if both bracketed arguments to \placefigure are supplied (I tested versions 2004.11.06 and 2004.12.06, but it probably affects other versions as well). Greetings, Taco

using \startfiguretext ... \stopfiguretext
by Nikolai Weibull 13 Dec '04

How do I get a figure with text that is displayed like Figure Text Caption where we first have the figure, then a description of it below, and finally a caption? So far I've only managed to get the text to appear to the left or right of the figure. nikolai -- ::: name: Nikolai Weibull :: aliases: pcp / lone-star / aka ::: ::: born: Chicago, IL USA :: loc atm: Gothenburg, Sweden ::: ::: page: www.pcppopper.org :: fun atm: gf,lps,ruby,lisp,war3 ::: main(){printf(&linux["\021%six\012\0"],(linux)["have"]+"fun"-97);}

Converters to XML
by David Arnold 12 Dec '04

12 Dec '04

All, I understand very little about MathML and XML. Is it possible to take a Context document and convert it into XML and MathML to be displayed in a XML and MathML aware browser? And what browsers are "aware" for this task? Is it possible to take a Context document and convert it into Braille for the seeing impaired? I'd love to hear about these issues. Pointers on the net would be welcome.

pdfetex can't find map files
by Matt Gushee 10 Dec '04

10 Dec '04

Aargh! Font problems again: after not using ConTeXt for a while, I installed the December 6 package today, generated formats, copied cont-sys.rme and texexec.rme, and so on. Since I recently upgraded my teTeX installation, I also edited pdftex.cfg, adding a bunch of map +foo lines--though I guess that's not strictly necessary, since I have \autoloadmapfilestrue in cont-sys.tex. All my fonts and typescripts are in the same places they were before, and it seems they are being found; however, pdfetex seems to be unable to use regular TeX fonts (e.g. Computer Modern) because it can't find the map files installed by ConTeXt. There are a number error messages that look like this (representing all the ConTeXt map files, I think): Warning: pdfetex (file original-public-vnr.map): \ cannot open font map file The files exist and are world-readable, so the above must mean that pdfetex just can't find them. Now, I did one important thing differently from before: I installed ConTeXt under $TEXMFLOCAL, which on my system is /usr/local/share/texmf. So the map files in question are in /usr/local/share/texmf/fonts/map/pdftex/context/ And I *think* my texmf.cnf is set up correctly: TEXMFLOCAL = /usr/local/share/texmf TEXMF = {$HOMETEXMF,!!$TEXMFLOCAL,!!$TEXMFMAIN} TEXFONTMAPS = .;$TEXMF/fontname;$TEXMF/fonts/map// % also TEXFONTMAPS.pdftex and TEXFONTMAPS.pdfetex w/ same values TEXINPUTS.pdftex = .;$TEXMF/{pdftex,tex}/{plain,generic,context,}// TEXINPUTS.pdfetex = \ .;$TEXMF/{pdfetex,pdftex,etex,tex}/{plain,generic,context,}// TEXINPUTS.context = \ .;$TEXMF/{pdftex,etex,tex}/{context,plain,generic,}// ... and so on. So, anyone have an idea what I might have missed? -- Matt Gushee Englewood, CO, USA

fonts installation
by r.ermers＠hccnet.nl 10 Dec '04

Dear friends, I ran the tests exactly as you suggested. There is something wrong with a tmf font but I don't understand the message. I also looked in the file cont-sys.tex and added the line \autoloadmapfilestrue. It does not make any difference. Attached the test file and the log file. Thanks again! Kind regards, Robert

Update ConTeXt 2004-12-06 for teTeX 2.99.4-beta: map files
by VnPenguin 09 Dec '04

09 Dec '04

Hi all, I have a running tetex-2.99.4-beta. Now I would like to update ConTeXt to version 2004-12-06. After comparing directory structures I see there is difference: 1. In ConTeXt all map files are in fonts/map/pdftex/context/*.map 2. In teTeX amm map files are in fonts/map/dvips/context/*.map So my question is how I could update ConTeXt safely ? Which directory structure I have to follow ? teTeX will continue to work if map files installed in ConTeXt's structure ? Thank you in advance, Regards, Quy NGUYEN-DAI
