Server upgrade planned for Nov 26.
by Taco Hoekwater 14 Nov '18

14 Nov '18

Hi all, We plan to update the software installation on the zapf.ntg.nl server on Monday Nov 26. As a consequence, various tex-related sites including www.ntg.nl, wiki.contextgarden.net and www.luatex.org, as well as the mailman lists @ntg.nl, will be down for some as-of-yet undetermined amount of time. We’ll try to be fast, but one never knows with these things... Best wishes, Taco

Dear list, I have the following sample: \showframe \setuppapersize[A6] \setuptyping[TEX][align={right, broad}] \starttext \startTEX \showframe \setuppapersize[A5] \setuptyping[TEX][align={right,broad}] \starttext \startTEX \stopTEX \stoptext \stopTEX \stoptext The broad value for align doesn’t seem to work in typing.

Tabulate & repeating header

Hello, the following code: ---- \starttext \bgroup \setuptabulate[split=yes,header=repeat] \starttabulatehead \FL \NC {\bf format char} \NC {\bf meaning} \NC \AR \LL \stoptabulatehead \starttabulate[|r|l|] \NC c \NC centered \NC \AR \NC l \NC left aligned \NC \AR \NC r \NC right aligned \NC \AR \stoptabulate \egroup \stoptext ---- has been copied from wiki - https://wiki.contextgarden.net/Tabulate#Headers and it should generate (repeating) header, but no header appears. Has anything changed? Best regards, Lukas -- Ing.

Two questions on bibliography
by Joshua Moerman 13 Nov '18

13 Nov '18

Dear mailing list, My questions are related to one by Rik a few weeks back (but he did not get an answer yet). I am using the APA style (context version 2018.10.03 16:02). Q1: Shouldn't the order of multiple citations (using a single \cite command) be the same as the order in the publications list? In the example below, the orders are different. Q2: Is there a way to capitalise the first letter of a last name in \cite[...]? For example, this may be necessary when starting a new sentence. But it is also generally preferred in Dutch when the last name starts with 'van' (or something similar). \startbuffer[biblio] @article{PAPER1, author = {First Author}, title = {A paper}, year = {2016} } @article{PAPER2, author = {First Writer}, title = {Another paper}, year = {2017} } @article{PAPER3, author = {Jan van Amsterdam}, title = {Yet another paper}, year = {2018} } \stopbuffer \usebtxdataset[biblio.buffer] \usebtxdefinitions[apa] \starttext % Order is 3, 1, 2 We refer to \cite[authoryears][PAPER1, PAPER2, PAPER3]. \cite[authoryears][PAPER3] provides background. \blank % Order is 1, 3, 2 (unlike before) \placelistofpublications \stoptext \showbtxdatasetcompleteness Thanks in advance, All the best, Joshua Moerman

Unifraktur Maguntia features
by Willi Egger 12 Nov '18

12 Nov '18

Hi all, is there somebody among the ConTeXt users, who has experience with the font UnifrakturMaguntja (http://unifraktur.sourceforge.net/maguntia.html#)? I tried all kind of approaches to get the font switching between lnum, tnum pnum and onum. — I come to the conclusion that I am unable to subtract and add features. I appreciate any help. Please refer to the appended tex file. Kind regards willi

Problem installing a new font

Hello, probably one of the basic questions and skills in ConTeXt, but the first case for me: how to install a (downloaded third-party) font into ConTeXt: I downloaded font source files from https://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/fonts/aurical/ and I unpacked the .zip content, so I have now (see FileList.txt for full info): ---- d:\Lukas\ConTeXt\Fonts\Aurical\fonts\afm d:\Lukas\ConTeXt\Fonts\Aurical\fonts\FileList.txt d:\Lukas\ConTeXt\Fonts\Aurical\fonts\map d:\Lukas\ConTeXt\Fonts\Aurical\fonts\tfm d:\Lukas\ConTeXt\Fonts\Aurical\fonts\type1 d:\Lukas\ConTeXt\Fonts\Aurical\fonts\afm\public d:\Lukas\ConTeXt\Fonts\Aurical\fonts\afm\public\aurical d:\Lukas\ConTeXt\Fonts\Aurical\fonts\afm\public\aurical\AmiciLogo.afm d:\Lukas\ConTeXt\Fonts\Aurical\fonts\afm\public\aurical\AmiciLogoBold.afm d:\Lukas\ConTeXt\Fonts\Aurical\fonts\afm\public\aurical\AmiciLogoBoldRslant.afm ... d:\Lukas\ConTeXt\Fonts\Aurical\fonts\type1\public\aurical\LukasSvatbaSlant.pfb ---- Trying to install the font the easiest way, I also copied files into my ConTeXt dir, so I have also (see FileList2.txt): ---- d:\Ctx-Beta\tex\texmf\fonts\afm\public\aurical\AmiciLogo.afm d:\Ctx-Beta\tex\texmf\fonts\afm\public\aurical\AmiciLogoBold.afm d:\Ctx-Beta\tex\texmf\fonts\afm\public\aurical\AmiciLogoBoldRslant.afm d:\Ctx-Beta\tex\texmf\fonts\afm\public\aurical\AmiciLogoBoldSlant.afm ... d:\Ctx-Beta\tex\texmf\fonts\type1\public\aurical\AmiciLogo.pfb d:\Ctx-Beta\tex\texmf\fonts\type1\public\aurical\AmiciLogoBold.pfb d:\Ctx-Beta\tex\texmf\fonts\type1\public\aurical\AmiciLogoBoldRslant.pfb d:\Ctx-Beta\tex\texmf\fonts\type1\public\aurical\AmiciLogoBoldSlant.pfb ... ---- I tried to follow instructions in 'mfonts.pdf' mentioned at https://wiki.contextgarden.net/Fonts, but early I failed with (unknown) "texfont" command cited here frequently.

\framed regression
by Henning Hraban Ramm 11 Nov '18

11 Nov '18

Ahoi, there were a few strange changes in ConTeXt rendering since about since mid-August, probably all related to box handling. I recognized \framed inserts some additional space when I re-typeset some sheets of labels that suddenly didn’t fit the labels any more. Today my editor in chief asked me where the pagination of our magazine went to – I guess its footer box became too small, couldn’t investigate yet. He didn’t see that the type on the back is askew, probably also from the additional space around a \framed Such sudden changes are really frustrating and might cost me a lot of money (the magazine is already printed and distributed). I’ll try to come up with a MWE. Greetlings, Hraban --- https://www.fiee.net http://wiki.contextgarden.net https://www.dreiviertelhaus.de GPG Key ID 1C9B22FD
