Bib bug
by Nigel King 18 Dec '02

18 Dec '02

The citations in my latest document show [56] for the number of the reference. This happens to be the number of documents in my bib file. The relevant commands in my various sources are:- \usemodule[bib] \setupbibtex[database=/Users/nigelk/Library/texmf/tex/context/Nigel] \setuppublications [alternative=apa] \def\refwithbrackets#1{[#1]\quad} \setuppublications [numbering=yes,% refcommand=num,% numbercommand=\refwithbrackets,% sorttype=cite,% criterium=used,% autohang=yes,% align=right] \setuppublicationlist [after={\blank[medium]},% strut=yes,% offset=0pt] And in the document \cite[abc:01] And \placepublications The bib file is a standard old style bib file generated by bibdesk Is there something that I have done wrong? TIA -- Nigel

Reference + footnote = bug
by Giuseppe Bilotta 17 Dec '02

17 Dec '02

... and a rather odd bug, too! \setupinteraction[state=start] \starttext Some text \goto{text with footnote\footnote{here it is} showing the bug}[hook] \page[yes] Some text \reference[hook] referenced from before. \stoptext See how the word "footnote" is superscripted ... it's an odd bug indeed, and it almost seems the footnote can detect the previous word ... -- Giuseppe "Oblomov" Bilotta

\placecontent
by Willi Egger 17 Dec '02

17 Dec '02

Hi everybody, I am struggling.... Previously it was possible to place a toc with the command \placecontent within a block. Currently I am using: ConTeXt ver: 2002.12.2 fmt: 2002.12.9 int: english mes: english With the above mentioned version there is only a toc if placed outside the block. - Is there something changed or broken? Please see attachment. Kind regards Willi

chinese font setup
by Matthew Huggett 16 Dec '02

16 Dec '02

A few weeks back, there was a short exchange on this list regarding utilities for preparing chinese fonts for ConTeXt. One of the postings provided a link to some new utilities. I've since downloaded the file there (gbkfonts-linux-0.2.tar.gz) but am unsure as to how to proceed. If anyone with experience in this area could provide some advice, I'd appreciate it. Thanks, Matt -- ------------------------------------ Matthew Huggett Hiratsuka-shi, Kanagawa-ken Japan mhuggett(a)zam.att.ne.jp

context on solaris
by Tomasz Kosinski 16 Dec '02

16 Dec '02

Hope this is the right place to ask...I have used, very gratefully, ConTeXt for the past few years on my Debian GNU/Linux system, and sometimes, when possible, I have installed it on client's/employer's Windows computers, using MikTeX. Maybe I have to change my OS from Debian to Solaris, on an Intelx86 machine, and so I would like to know if anyone has been using ConTeXt in that environment, or, if there is any reason to expect that it might or might not work. I noticed in the teTeX download page: http://theory.uwinnipeg.ca/search/tetex.html that pre-compiled binaries are available for Solaris running on Sparc computers, but it doesn't say anything about x86 machines. Any thoughts would be very much appreciated - non-programmer, end-user writing. By the way, my occupation is architect (buildings) and I use ConTeXt for all kinds of document preparation - office work, correspondence, presentations, etc. I recently received a reply to a proposal which I submitted, which included the following: > Thanks, I'll be back in touch. > Robin > PS most beautiful proposal ever! ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Maybe the enthusiasm is a bit exaggerated, but, to the extent that there is truth in the sentiment, credit is largely due to ConTeXt, ConTeXt's author, and to the many on this list who have helped out over the years.

Chinese font files
by Matthew Huggett 16 Dec '02

16 Dec '02

Hi, I've installed the simplified chinese fonts from ftp.ctex.org (ttf,tfm,enc and map file), and TeX seems to be able to find the .enc files but pdftex complains about not being able to open the ttf files. What's the correct location in the texmf-local tree for the ttf files?
