debug.getinfo

Hello, the function 'debug.getinfo' was removed? The following code: ---- \startluacode print(debug.getinfo) \stopluacode \starttext A \cldcontext{tostring(debug.getinfo)} \stoptext ---- gives/prints 'nil'. IIRC, the function was non-nil some weeks ago... Best regards, Lukas -- Ing.

How to adjust the sistance between a letter and subscript
by Huseyin Özoguz 22 Nov '18

22 Nov '18

Hi Jeong, you can always adjust the space between characters like this: \startformula T_X \quad {\cal T}{\hskip-1mm}_X \quad T_Y \quad {\cal T}{\hskip-1mm}_Y \stopformula I am not sure about side effects, but seems to work fine at least in this example.

How to adjust the sistance between a letter and subscript
by Jeong Dal 22 Nov '18

22 Nov '18

Hi, In the following example, the distance between a letter ${\cal T}$ and its subscript is too big. It is not an error, but it looks a little bit strange. How to reduce it for a good looking? Thank you. Best regards, Dalyoung ***** \starttext Compare the distance between a letter and its subscript of the following example. \startformula T_X \quad {\cal T}_X \quad T_Y \quad {\cal T}_Y \stopformula \stoptext *****

A ConTeXt Guide in Italian
by Tommaso Gordini 21 Nov '18

21 Nov '18

Hello everyone! This is my first message here. I'm trying to write a ConTeXt guide in Italian. The LaTeX *tcolorbox* package defines an environment dedicated to LaTeX examples: above (or on the left) the source is written, and below (or on the right) the typeset result. Is there something similar for ConTeXt? Does it make sense, in your opinion, to showing examples of source code with the related outputs in this way? Thanks in advance for any advice on this aspect of the guide and for any suggestions. Tommy

Colormanagement
by Jan U. Hasecke 21 Nov '18

21 Nov '18

Hi all, I defined some colors with \definecolor like this: \definecolor [myblue] [r=0.000, g=0.314, b=0.580, c=0.98, m=0.67, y=0.03, k=0.12] \startnotmode[print] \setupcolors[cmyk=no,rgb=yes] \stopnotmode \startmode[print] \setupcolors[cmyk=yes,rgb=no] \setupbackend[ format=PDF/X-3:2003, intent={ISO Coated v2 300\letterpercent\space (ECI)}, ] \stopmode When I use "context" or "context --mode=print" everything works as expected. But! I have SVG icons I want to use in the document. They contain the above defined rgb colors. When I use --mode=print I get different colors for the SVG icons. So context converts the SVG files to PDFs but does not change the colors accordingly to CMYK. What are my options? Do I miss something? 1. Let the designer produce icons in pdf with the given cmyk colors. 2. Don't use cmyk colors at all. In fact on my home printer the printed rgb colors look brighter than the cmyk colors. This might change in the print shop when they print with the right color profile, but it makes me nervous. juh

issues with optical bounds
by Pablo Rodriguez 19 Nov '18

19 Nov '18

Hi Hans, many thanks for having released the new beta. I experience opposite results with opbd. The first sample is: \definefontfeature[default][default][protrusion=quality, opbd=yes] \definefontfamily[mainface][rm][Linux Libertine O] \setupbodyfont[mainface, 300pt] \setuppagenumbering[location=] \setupalign[hanging] \showframe \starttext W \stoptext Although the value for that lfbd is only -29, the W is moved too much from its original position. The second sample is (font attached at https://mailman.ntg.nl/pipermail/ntg-context/2018/092527.html) \showframe \definefontfeature[default][default][protrusion=quality, opbd=yes] \definefontfamily[mainface][rm][TestOPBD] \setupbodyfont[mainface, 60pt] \setupalign[hanging] \starttext Ἠ\\ Ἠ\hfill Ἠ\\ Ἦ\hfill ὩὩ\\ ἯἯ\hfill ὩὩ \stoptext Here the changes are tiny. The right values are used in the image at https://github.com/wspr/fontspec/issues/282#issuecomment-287155442. Could you check it? Many thanks for your help, Pablo -- http://www.ousia.tk

align=end not working
by Aditya Mahajan 18 Nov '18

18 Nov '18

Hi, According to an old thread (https://mailman.ntg.nl/pipermail/ntg-context/2016/085877.html) the option `align=end` should align the last line to be flush right. However, that is not working. The example from that thread: \starttext \showframe \showboxes \setupalign[end] \dostepwiserecurse{5}{8}{1}{ \hsize #1cm What does happen with a short paragraph?\par } \stoptext gives the attached pdf. Thanks, Aditya

Footnotes and endnotes
by Axel Kielhorn 18 Nov '18

18 Nov '18

Hello, I have some problems with footnotes and endnotes. I have two kinds of footnotes: Those by the original author and those by the translator. I want to show the translator notes in a different way. Right now I have the footnote in green, but the footnote marker in the text does change neither font nor color? Shouldn’t the marker be green and bold? Setting numberconversion works, but the other options seem to be without effect. I want to include longer note as endnotes. I can change the marker shown with the notes to (1) but he marker in the text does not change. Thus you can’t distinguish between a footnote and an endnote. I tried a footnote within a footnote, that didn’t work, should it? (I don’t actually need this, I was just curious.) When I define commentnote based on endnote I get the same numbering. How can I either - use different counters for both kind of notes or - print both notes with the same placenotes command, in the right order? Greetings Axel \starttext \definenote[authornote][footnote] \setupnotation[authornote] [style=bold] \definenote[translaternote][rule=off] \setupnotation[translaternote] [headstyle=bold, numberconversion=a, headcolor=green, style=bolditalic, color=green] % No color for the footnotemark? \definenote[translaterpnote][rule=off] \setupnotation[translaterpnote] [way=bypage, numberconversion=set 2,headstyle=bold] \definenote[commentnote][endnote] \setupnotation[commentnote] [color=red,left={(},right={)}] % How to style the footnotemark in the text? \setupnotation[endnote] [left={(},right={)}] \startsection[ reference=fußnoten, title={Fußnoten} ] \index{Fußnoten} \input ward\footnote{Eine normale Fußnote.

Overflowing text if placetable is set to split
by mailinglist.context＠christopher-bock.de 17 Nov '18

17 Nov '18

Hi all, I encountered weird behavior if \placetable[here, split] is set. The text after the table sometimes doesn't cause a pagebreak and flows into the footer and overlaps the footertext instead. See attached MWE. Is there a way to avoid this behavior? Manually entering a page break is no option. Thanks, Chris

TextMate ConTeXt bundle
by Manuel Blanco 16 Nov '18

16 Nov '18

Hi all, After some years with LaTeX and let's say three or four times trying to start with ConTeXt, I decided to try again. Difficult, there are many manuals and a lot of contradicting ideas (at least for those of us that do not know) in them, but still, I want to try to see if once and for all I can manage to dominate it. I have installed MacTeX 2018. I use TextMate, and the ConTeXt bundle is not working in Mac OS High Sierra. After installing it, when I tried to compile it said something along the lines "your PATH is ... you should have 'context' in your path", so I searched in my computer and changed TextMate PATH to: $PATH:/opt/local/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/texbin:/usr/local/texlive/2018/texmf-dist/scripts/context/stubs/unix And this last part is where I think the context binary seems to be /usr/local/texlive/2018/texmf-dist/scripts/context/stubs/unix But now when I run it it says env: texlua: No such file or directory What could be happening? What do I do? Also, the bundle was last updated in 2010, may be there are new things? Where could we learn what things to add? https://github.com/pgundlach/context.tmbundle Any updated documentation that takes you from beginner to intermediate would be apreciated too. Thanks, Manuel
