TeX capacity exceeded, sorry [save size=40000] error
by Samuel Pelletier 02 Sep '04

02 Sep '04

Hi, I have a long (4333 lines) natural table document that refuse to compose. Initialy, I had an "TeX capacity exceeded" message for "hash size" but it seems that I figured how to bypass it by changing the texmf.cnf file. Now I have a "! TeX capacity exceeded, sorry [save size=40000]." error and I have not figured out how to increase this parameter. The only place with a similar name is inside the texmf.cnf file but changing it does not : save_size = 150000 % was 50000 % for saving values outside current group I issue a texexec --make --all but the message is still there. Is there any way to get rid of this one? > !

And now again I can also use the much faster \def\typescriptfiles{type-agaramondmini.tex} instead of \usetypescriptfile[type-agaramondmini.tex] Great. Thanks for your patience! Steffen P.S. Could you - please (!) - also have a look at the "Footnotes in margin" thread?

I can't find anything wrong (for without greek it works fine).

Sure, THIS one works. But what I was asking for was how to change the font for all the english text (all the non-greek)? My attempt was to start the document with: \usetypescriptfile[type-agaramond.tex] \usetypescript[AGaramondOldStyle] \setupencoding[default=ec] \setupbodyfont[AGaramondOldStyle,10.2pt] (... and then continue as you have pasted below) But this gives the error I had sent. I hope the problem is clearer now. Can you help to find a solution?

... actually it's the last line causing the problem: \usetypescriptfile[type-agaramond.tex] \usetypescript[AGaramondOldStyle] \setupencoding[default=ec] \setupbodyfont[AGaramondOldStyle,10.2pt] % <- Is there an other way to define a normal bodyfont plus using the greek module? Steffen

Ancient Greek (bodyfont conflict?)
by Steffen Wolfrum 02 Sep '04

Hi, In "s-grk-00.tex" is defined "\switchtobodyfont[cbgreek]". So why doesn't it work to define a body font for the normal AND use this module for switching to greek? Steffen P.S. Please have a look at this wellknown example. With the first four lines added the greek parts get empty: \def\typescriptfiles{type-agaramond.tex} \usetypescript[AGaramondOldStyle] \setupencoding[default=ec] \setupbodyfont[AGaramondOldStyle,10.2pt] % The following sample file was submitted to the \CONTEXT\ % mailing list by Giuseppe Bilotta, along with the right % typescripts. \usemodule[greek] \mainlanguage[english] \starttext We can easily use plain English for normal text, and then switch to greek when we want; as a first try we type the lower and upper case 26 letters of the latin alphabet and see how they come out in greek: \startgreek a b c d e f g h i j k l m n o p q r s t u v w x y z \par A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z \stopgreek As it can be observed, some uppercase letters have strange outcomes; also, j gives \greek{j} and c gives the end-of-word sigma \greek{c}; interestingly, s gives either the normal sigma or the end-of-word one, depending on whether it's at the end of the word or not: \greek{satrapws}. Of course we can use the various diacritical signs: accents (\greek{`a, 'a, ~a}), breathings (\greek{<r, >w, a"}) and subscribed iotas (\greek{a|, h|, w|}) (these last are pretty ugly in my opinion); observe how they automatically get the correct position with uppercase letters: (\greek{`A, 'A, ~A, <A, >A, A|}). Can the thing be used for serious work? \startgreek >>'Andra moi >'ennepe, Mo~usa, pol'utropon, >'os m'ala poll`a\hfill\break pl'agqjh, >epe`i Tro'ihs <er`on ptol'iejron >'eperse;\hfill\break poll~wn d" >anjr'wpwn >'iden >'astea ka`i n'oon >'egnw,\hfill\break poll`a d" <'o g" >en p'ontw| p'ajen >'algea <`on kat`a jum'on,\hfill\break >>arn'umenos <'hn te yuq`hn ka`i n'oston <eta'irwn. \stopgreek \stoptext
