Synchronization (.tex <-> .pdf)
by Steffen Wolfrum 22 Dec '03

22 Dec '03

Hi, I don't now how many ConTeXt user are aware of the idea of synchronization. In the LaTeX area of TeX it has a kind of tradition (Textures, srcltx, ...) for dvi output. For PDF output Jérôme Laurens has now written a package (for use with iTeXMac and TeXShop) that makes the advantages from source-output synchronization also available for the todays standard PDF. But as so many things in the TeX world it is written as a "plug-in" for LaTeX. Does anybody has an idea how to use this great achievement also with ConTeXt? For those who would like to have a look at Jérôme's great work, I insert his code at the end of this email. Thank you very much, Steffen Wolfrum %%%% This is pdfsync.sty %%%% 2003-12-08: %%%% There is a bug in using everyvbox... novbox is now the default %%%% bug fixed: $0$ was no visible %%%% 2003-11-28: %%%% comment characters added to fix an error.

\hyphenatedurl problem
by Tobias Burnus 22 Dec '03

22 Dec '03

Hi, I'm sure I miss something obvious but I have no clue what it is. I have: \def\gotoDOI#1{\hyphenatedurl#1} \gotoDOI{10.1016/S0009-2614(01)01361-6} \hyphenatedurl{10.1016/S0009-2614(01)01361-6} and I redefined supp-lan.tex's \scanurl to hyphenate at '(' and ')'. The strange thing is: Using gotoDOI the linebreak comes after the last '-' ('...01361-' // '6') while using hyphenatedurl it's '...(01)' // '01361-6' (the latter is desired). See attached test case. The real definition of gotoDOI will be: \def\gotoDOI#1{\useURL[doi][#1]\useURL[doiurl][http://dx.doi.org/#1]% \goto{\url[doi]}[url(doiurl)]} MERRY CHRISTMAS (or happy holidays) AND A HAPPY NEW YEAR! Tobias PS: Hans, can you include ( and ) as places where a hyphenation may happen?

texexec changes drives
by David Arnold 21 Dec '03

21 Dec '03

All, I have Miktex and context installed on my F: drive (partition). My path: C:\Temp>path PATH=F:\MIKTEX\CONTEXT\PERLTK;F:\MIKTEX\MIKTEX\BIN;C:\GS\GS7.04\BIN;C:\GS\GS 7.04 \LIB;C:\PERL\BIN;C:\WINDOWS;C:\WINDOWS;C:\WINDOWS\COMMAND;C:\YANDY\YANDYTEX\ ;E:\ MATLAB6P1\BIN\WIN32;C:\EMACS\BIN;;C:\GHOSTGUM\GSVIEW\;;F:\MSYS\1.0\MINGW\BIN ;F:\ IMAGINE\BIN;;E:\J2SDK1.4.0_02\BIN;E:\MATLAB6P5\BIN\WIN32 Look what happens every time I run texexec. C:\temp>texexec --version TeXExec 4.0 - ConTeXt / PRAGMA ADE 1997-2003 total run time : 1 seconds F:\Temp> The drive changes! I am using Miktex, have deleted texexec from /Miktex/bin, and have pointed my path at /Miktex/context/perltk as you can see above. Has anyone else experienced this strange behavior of changing drives?

vertical spacing in tabulate
by Patrick Gundlach 20 Dec '03

20 Dec '03

Dear ConTeXt users, I'd like to reduce the vertical spacing in the following tabulation. How do I do this? I couldn't find an answer in the up-to-date (4). \starttext \tfxx \starttabulate[|r|l|r|] \NC 1\NC Testbild (Mittagspause)\NC 2:42\NC \NR \NC 2\NC Innenstadtfront (Mittagspause)\NC 1:11\NC \NR \NC 3\NC Risikofaktor 1:X (Male)\NC 1:31\NC \NR \stoptabulate \stoptext Patrick -- mon transistor j'adore

bookmarks, accented caracters, breaking URLs
by Tobias Burnus 19 Dec '03

19 Dec '03

Hello, (first: Thanks, Hans for the answer, I added some space in \unknownreference and a $\blacktriangleright$, but otherwise I won't miss any reference anymore; fingers crossed.) (a) I fail somehow to produce bookmarks (or 'outlines') for the Acrobat Reader. I tried \placebookmarks[chapter,section,subsection] \starttext \chapter{foo} \stoptext but the outline is completely empty. This is with pdfeTeX (Web2C 7.4.5) 3.14159-1.10b-2.1, ConTeXt ver:2003.11.27 and acroread 5.0.5 for Linux. I don't insist on bookmarks, but I think they are nice if you get them for free. (b) Accented characters in bookmarks (I think) or the 'general info' dialog An {\"a} is shown as 'dobuildtextaccent char 127 a'. Having a 'ä' would be nice since then the indexer would find this. Since it is only 'Universität' (a proper name) this is not an important search term, though. (c) With some URLs in my literature reference list, I run into the problem that they are not (properly) hyphenized. I use \def\gotoURL#1{\useURL[foo][#1]\goto{\url[foo]}[url(foo)]} for this purpose. I would like to see a linebreak at '/' and in long words (with out printing a '-'). I get ('|' denotes the column width and the page width): | | DOI: 10.1016/S0009-2614(01)01361-6 | | | | http://mathworld.wolfram.com/CylindricalCoordinates. html. Tobias

\loadfontfileoncetrue?

Hmmm,... I haven't tried included graphics for a while, so I downloaded the new beta into my Miktex system, regenerated formats, and attempted to compile the code below. I got the following error: !
