Does Context support bibtex together with harvard style citations? and Is it possible to include graphics (or even animations) in SVG format into the pdf documents ? Thank You in advance Michal Morawski

How to get default Dutch language Context in TeXShop on Macos X
by Robert Kroon 19 Dec '04

19 Dec '04

Hi, Recently I've installed Gerben Wierda's teTeX distributon incl. ConTeXt on my iMac (Macos X, 10.3.6). Now I'm trying to learn ConTeXt. I'm marking up my documents in TeXShop, version 1.34. I can typeset small ConTeXt documents and generate PDF-files as long as the type setting commands are in English. However, I would like to use Dutch type setting commands like: \starttekst Dit is een test \stoptekst When I typeset this file from within TexShop I get following output and errors <Begin screen message> TeXExec 5.2.3 - ConTeXt / PRAGMA ADE 1997-2004 executable : pdfetex format : cont-nl inputfile : Context-les1 output : pdftex interface : nl current mode : none TeX run : 1 This is pdfeTeX, Version 3.141592-1.20a-2.2 (Web2C 7.5.3) (/usr/local/teTeX/share/texmf.local/web2c/natural.tcx) kpathsea: Running mktexfmt cont-nl.fmt fmtutil: no info for format `cont-nl'.

TeXFont Problem
by Fergal Grimes 19 Dec '04

19 Dec '04

Hi, I'm a TeX/ConTeXt beginner and I'm having trouble installing a new font. I just purchased Sabon from Adobe and I'm following the installation instructions at http://home.salamander.com/~wmcclain/context-help.html. The problem is that when I run TeXFont it just copies the AFM and PFB files into the directory tree at C:\Program Files\TeXLive\texmf-local\fonts. (I'm using TeXLive distribution for Win32.) However, for some reason it does not generate the TFM and VF files. I searched the archives of this list and notice that this problem was raised by chabah5 at hotmail.com on Thu Aug 12 13:21:56 2004, but got no answer. Can anyone help me? I've got TeXFont version 2.2.1. and I run the folowing command from the directory where the downloaded font files reside: texfont --vendor=adobe --collection=sabon --makepath --install The output I get is appended below. I'd appreciate any help you can give (since I've invested $160 in Adobe Sabon!!!) Thanks, Fergal -------------------------------------------------------- C:\Temp>texfont --vendor=adobe --collection=sabon --makepath --install Kpathsea released!

Hi, Just wandering how to configure Context to display french quotes instead of english ones. French quotes look like this : << my text >>, where english ones look like this: "my text". Of course, am using the \mainlanguage[fr] option in my document. Many thanks.

Vertical justification of each slide
by Laurent Chéno 18 Dec '04

18 Dec '04

(* please excuse my poor english *) Hi, I use ConTeXt for presentations : I wish text on each slide to be vertically justified and vertically centered (between 2 occurrences of "\page"). There is surely a simple way to achieve that, but I don't found it. Do you can help me ? Thank you in advance. Laurent Chéno
