named destinations with highlation
by shiva shankar shankar 26 Oct '04

26 Oct '04

Dear sir, suppose that i am having a target text and link to a target text in a pdf document(created either by using pdftex or by using a distiller) if i click the link it will take you to the target text. When you go to the target text if i want to highlate the text with some color temporarily( like when you use find ) what must be the postscript code or javascript code that i should embed in a tex file. shiva shankar.

new release
by Adam Lindsay 26 Oct '04

26 Oct '04

Hi Hans. I just noticed this morning in your enco-uc (also appears in the new release) that the following is outside the start/stopencoding, and therefore causes some Bad Things (looking for UnicodeRegular20) if people use language settings: \stopencoding \definecharacter endash {\uchar{32}{19}} \definecharacter emdash {\uchar{32}{20}} \definecharacter quoteleft {\uchar{32}{24}} \definecharacter quoteright {\uchar{32}{25}} \definecharacter quotesinglebase {\uchar{32}{26}} \definecharacter quotedblleft {\uchar{32}{28}} \definecharacter quotedblright {\uchar{32}{29}} \definecharacter quotedblbase {\uchar{32}{30}} \definecharacter leftguillemot {\uchar0{171}} \definecharacter rightguillemot {\uchar0{187}} \definecharacter guilsingleleft {\uchar{32}{57}} \definecharacter guilsingleright {\uchar{32}{58}} %D a temporary guess: \startencoding[default] \definecommand Greekleftquot {\leftguillemot} \definecommand Greekrightquot {\rightguillemot} \stopencoding -- =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Adam T.

stretched text
by kopszak＠mnw.art.pl 26 Oct '04

26 Oct '04

Hello, I know it's a bad habit to use stretched text, but apparently formerly people thought differently. I am typesetting old quotations and would not want to replace stretched text simply by emphasized. Is it absolutely discouraged in ConTeXt or is there any way to have it... (in spite of its ugliness). Piotr -- Piotr Kopszak, Ph.D. Polish Art Gallery, National Museum in Warsaw -----------------------------> http://kopszak.mnw.art.pl/

more nath patches
by Christopher Creutzig 26 Oct '04

26 Oct '04

Salvete, I finally managed to make t-nath work with \eqalign and \eqalignno. (I assume I was not the only one having trouble there?) As it appears, nath gets really confused when subformulas are enclosed in {} and contain some form of delimiters. Therefore, the original definitions just don't work, but these modifications do, at least in some sense of “work”: \def\eqalignno#1% {\displ@y \tabskip\centering \vcenter{% \openup\jot\m@th \halign to \displaywidth {\hfil{\startnathdmath\@lign ##\stopnathdmath}\tabskip\z@skip &{\startnathdmath\@lign {}##\stopnathdmath}\hfil\tabskip\centering &\llap{$\@lign##$}\tabskip\z@skip\crcr #1\crcr}}} \def\eqalign#1% {\null \,% \vcenter {\openup \jot\m@th \ialign {\strut\hfil{\startnathdmath ##\stopnathdmath}&% {\startnathdmath {}##\stopnathdmath}\hfil\crcr #1\crcr}}% \,} And I've got another snippet I'd like to share, which helps displaying continued fractions in a linear format, using the “best” way of doing so I've met so far: \def\contfrac#1#2{% % To get the lines at the top right and bottom left % at the correct lengths, we need to know the final heights % of both top and bottom.

Also note that the snippet uses \fracrulethickness@ from t-nath.tex, while I honestly consider using \fontdimen8\textfont3 or whichever font size is in use for the fraction. Well, work in progress. regards, Christopher Creutzig
