Hi all, Am trying to define a synonym of my font at 24pt where am not sure at which size my font is installed -should be 12pt- (The ttf includes all the following sizes 12, 18, 24,36, 48, 60, .. but as i've done the install from the pfb + afm that comes with it, i don't really know what size i have now). Anyway i have tryed the following which turns to an error: \usetypescriptfile[Karat.tex] \usetypescript[karat] \definefont[TitleFont][karat at 24pt] \starttext \TitleFont Hello \stoptext I have tryed to change the 24 to 12 and it does not work too. This is the error message: fonts : [karat] [] [] (c:/TeXLive/texmf/tex/context/base/type-syn.tex) (c:/TeXLive/texmf/tex/context/base/type-enc.tex) (c:/TeXLive/texmf/tex/context/base/type-siz.tex) (c:/TeXLive/texmf/tex/context/base/type-map.tex) (c:/TeXLive/texmf/tex/context/base/type-spe.tex) (c:/TeXLive/texmf/tex/context/base/type-exa.tex) (c:/TeXLive/texmf/tex/context/base/type-akb.tex) (c:/TeXLive/texmf/tex/context/user/Karat.tex fonts : [karat] [ss] [sans] [karat] / texnansi fonts : [map] [texnansi] [] (c:/TeXLive/texmf/tex/context/base/type-syn.tex) (c:/TeXLive/texmf/tex/context/base/type-enc.tex) (c:/TeXLive/texmf/tex/context/base/type-siz.tex) (c:/TeXLive/texmf/tex/context/base/type-map.tex) (c:/TeXLive/texmf/tex/context/base/type-spe.tex) (c:/TeXLive/texmf/tex/context/base/type-exa.tex) (c:/TeXLive/texmf/tex/context/base/type-akb.tex) (c:/TeXLive/texmf/tex/context/user/Karat.tex) (c:/TeXLive/texmf/tex/context/base/type-buy.tex) fonts : [sans,map] [karat] [name,default,texnansi,special] (c:/TeXLive/texmf/tex/context/base/type-syn.tex) (c:/TeXLive/texmf/tex/context/base/type-enc.tex) (c:/TeXLive/texmf/tex/context/base/type-siz.tex) (c:/TeXLive/texmf/tex/context/base/type-map.tex) (c:/TeXLive/texmf/tex/context/base/type-spe.tex) (c:/TeXLive/texmf/tex/context/base/type-exa.tex) (c:/TeXLive/texmf/tex/context/base/type-akb.tex) (c:/TeXLive/texmf/tex/context/user/Karat.tex fonts : [sans] [fallback] [] (c:/TeXLive/texmf/tex/context/base/type-syn.tex) (c:/TeXLive/texmf/tex/context/base/type-enc.tex) (c:/TeXLive/texmf/tex/context/base/type-siz.tex) (c:/TeXLive/texmf/tex/context/base/type-map.tex) (c:/TeXLive/texmf/tex/context/base/type-spe.tex) (c:/TeXLive/texmf/tex/context/base/type-exa.tex) (c:/TeXLive/texmf/tex/context/base/type-akb.tex) (c:/TeXLive/texmf/tex/context/user/Karat.tex) (c:/TeXLive/texmf/tex/context/base/type-buy.tex)) (c:/TeXLive/texmf/tex/context/base/type-buy.tex) fonts : [sans] [default] [size] (c:/TeXLive/texmf/tex/context/base/type-syn.tex) (c:/TeXLive/texmf/tex/context/base/type-enc.tex) (c:/TeXLive/texmf/tex/context/base/type-siz.tex) (c:/TeXLive/texmf/tex/context/base/type-map.tex) (c:/TeXLive/texmf/tex/context/base/type-spe.tex) (c:/TeXLive/texmf/tex/context/base/type-exa.tex) (c:/TeXLive/texmf/tex/context/base/type-akb.tex) (c:/TeXLive/texmf/tex/context/user/Karat.tex) (c:/TeXLive/texmf/tex/context/base/type-buy.tex)) (./Typescript2.tuo systems : possible problem with 8 bit output ) (./Typescript2.tuo) (./Typescript2.tuo) (./Typescript2.tuo) (./Typescript2.tuo) (./Typescript2.tuo) (./Typescript2.tuo) (./Typescript2.tuo) (./Typescript2.tuo) (./Typescript2.tuo) (./Typescript2.tuo) (./Typescript2.tuo) (./Typescript2.tuo) fonts : using map file: texnansi-base.map fonts : using map file: texnansi-rubicon-karatmedium.map fonts : using map file: ec-public-lm.map fonts : using map file: original-base.map systems : begin file Typescript2 at line 7 kpathsea: Running mktextfm karat mktextfm: Could not map typeface abbreviation ar for karat. mktextfm: Need to update c:/TeXLive/texmf/fontname/special.map? mktextfm: Running mf "\mode:=ljfour; mag:=1; nonstopmode; input karat" This is METAFONT, Version 2.71828 (Web2c 7.5.2) (c:/TeXLive/texmf/web2c/cp8bit.tcx) kpathsea: Running mktexmf karat mktexmf: empty or non-existent rootfile! !

Getting linuxtex.zip working
by Nikolai Weibull 02 Nov '04

02 Nov '04

Exactly what do I need to do after running setuptex, mktexlsr, and texexec --make --alone? PATH needs permanent updating for sure, but what else? texexec won't work (kpsewhich won't work) unless setuptex is sourced before I try running it in a fresh shell. What am I missing in my setup? 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);}

Hi out there, has anybody got a (unix) script for installing the base fonts with texfont? I need the metrices so you can use these fonts without the adobekb typescript (no, I don't want to switch, its for garden) Patrick PS: don't send me complete trees, I don't have a good internet connection) -- ConTeXt wiki: http://contextgarden.net

textools --fixtexmftrees : parse error !

Hi, being a dumb Mac-user I ran into problems using "textools --fixtexmftrees": [powerbook:scripts/context/ruby] himmelblau% ruby /usr/local/teTeX/share/texmf.local/scripts/context/ruby/textools.rb --fixtexmftrees ~/Library/texmf -:1: parse error /usr/local/teTeX/share/texmf.local/scripts/context/ruby/textools.rb --fixtexmftrees ~/Library/texmf ^ I also tried: [powerbook:scripts/context/ruby] himmelblau% ruby textools --fixtexmftrees ~/Library/texmf --force -:1: parse error textools --fixtexmftrees ~/Library/texmf --force ^ I have know idea what that means... What is wrong with the command I used? Steffen

precompiling inline mp to pdf?
by Christopher Creutzig 02 Nov '04

02 Nov '04

Salvete, for my latest project (almost done, so I don't need the answer for this one, but possibly in the future) I have compilation times which were dominated by Metapost until I switched to using --nomp most of the time and --automp --runs=2 whenever I changed something that results in changes to the Metapost stuff. (I needed the --automp anyway, since to work around size limits in MetaPost I had to split the background into separate images, yet they had to influence one another via global variables -- increasing the memory limit to 80 MB made Metapost predictably freeze at unpredictable places in the run.) Now, my compile times are dominated by the mp to pdf conversion. Since pdf inclusion is fast (as expected), I'd like to use mptopdf once on each generated file and have ConTeXt include that. Should I redefine \insertMPfile to first look for the pdf or is there a more clever way? (Note that I do want the automatic inclusion, since I'm passing the dimensions of external figures etc. to metapost and use the result in a background layer and/or as frame backgrounds.) regards, Christopher Creutzig PS: I didn't have time to analyze this when I came across it, but it seems that "texexec --automp file" consistently performs one TeX run too little. In any case, the last thing it does is a metapost run, which doesn't seem sensible to me.

Hi, I updated my tetex installation from G. Wierda's i-Installer (to the latest version) and ever since my context files refuse to compile. The earliest error indication I get is: ConTeXt ver: 2004.10.07 fmt: 2004.11.1 int: english mes: english systems : pdfTeX version 111 -> please update systems : eTeX version 201 -> too old (bugs) But I do seem to have the latest pdfTeX and eTeX versions: gimli:~ shiv$ pdftex -v pdfTeX (Web2C 7.5.2) 3.141592-1.11a kpathsea version 3.5.2 gimli:~ shiv$ etex -v e-TeX (Web2C 7.5.2) 3.141592-2.1 kpathsea version 3.5.2 Any idea where my problem could be? Thanks, --shiv--

I'd like to split it onto two lines. Any suggestions?
