Hardcoded file extensions in typescript
by Henri Menke 24 Oct '18

24 Oct '18

Dear devs, Motivated by https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/456435 I found that the type-imp-source.mkiv typescript hardcodes the .ttf extension for the font files. However, TeX Live distributes those files with the .otf extensions, hence they are not found. Please fix! Cheers, Henri

\setuphead for a section block
by Pablo Rodriguez 23 Oct '18

23 Oct '18

Dear list, imagine that I need a different setup for chapter in the bodymatter than in the frontmatter and appendices. The way to do it seems to be: \setuphead[chapter][style=\bf] \startsectionblockenvironment[bodypart] \setuphead[chapter][style=\em] \stopsectionblockenvironment \starttext \startfrontmatter \chapter{Introduction} \stopfrontmatter \startbodymatter \chapter{Chapter} \stopbodymatter \stoptext But wasn’t there a command similar to the following one for such purposes? \setuphead[bodypart:chapter][style=\em] I remember that there was something similar to that command to setup headings in a section block. Am I creating my memories or did a similar option exist? Many thanks for your help, Pablo -- http://www.ousia.tk

ConTeXt source from XML
by Pablo Rodriguez 23 Oct '18

23 Oct '18

Dear list, when dealing with XML, sometimes I find errors that I don’t know where they might come from. Is it possible to get the full ConTeXt source from a XML document instead of typesetting it? Many thanks for your help, Pablo -- http://www.ousia.tk

devanagari is missing an accent in newest beta
by Ulrike Fischer 23 Oct '18

23 Oct '18

Disclaimer: I know nothing about devanagari, I can only describe changes visually ... I installed yesterday the newest context, and one of my examples of devanagari is now missing an "accent". I'm rather confident that the output was different before the update as I made screenshots when testing this with luaotfload. The affected font siddhanta can be found here http://svayambhava.blogspot.com/p/siddhanta-devanagariunicode-open-type.html Screenshots and code that show the difference and the missing accent in the xelatex and context output are in this comment https://github.com/u-fischer/luaotfload/issues/9#issuecomment-431288932 the older (perfect) output is in a comment above https://github.com/u-fischer/luaotfload/issues/9#issuecomment-426978522 -- Ulrike Fischer https://www.troubleshooting-tex.de/

what defines the font size?
by Pablo Rodriguez 22 Oct '18

22 Oct '18

Dear list, sorry for this basic question, but what defines the size in a font? I mean, we can take TeX Gyre Bonum and TeX Gyre Adventor at twelve points. x-height is different, M-width is slightly different. I thought it was the same A-height, but it isn’t. If two fonts have the same size, I think there may be a dimension which has the same length in both. Which one is this? Sorry for the basic question and many thanks for your help, Pablo -- http://www.ousia.tk

Questions to font family Pagella
by Tomas Hala 22 Oct '18

22 Oct '18

Hi all, I am doing some first tests with fonts (related with our font testing intentions) and I found out that since 2015 there are two sets of files for pagella with the same metadata by otfinfo -i. Eg.: 152192 /usr/local/texlive/2018/texmf-dist/fonts/opentype/public/newpx/TeXGyrePagellaX-Regular.otf 144472 /usr/local/texlive/2018/texmf-dist/fonts/opentype/public/tex-gyre/texgyrepagella-regular.otf The only one difference is in the license note: "Copyright 2013--2015 Michael Sharpe for added superior figures, letters and symbols." at files from newx directory. 1. Why the distribution (TL 2018) contains two versions of the same font family? 2. How can I recognise which one was used for the document after \setupbodyfont[pagella]? 3. On my disk I have got also one older version (1.011) of pagella (I do not where I took it from) which contains more(!) characters than the current one (2.004) where eg. the subset of cyrillic characters is missing... Why the newer version contains less?

mtxrun --script fonts --reload: Question to behaviour
by Tomas Hala 22 Oct '18

22 Oct '18

Hi all, doing some test with fonts I discovered that mtxrun--script fonts --reload crashed (line 479, TL 2018) on existing directory if this directory has incorrect permissions (in tested case I set 000 for making the directory and its subtree completely invisible). Is this the expected behaviour? Best wishes, Tomáš

Use \framedtext to write an algorithm (again)
by Fabrice Couvreur 18 Oct '18

18 Oct '18

Hi Wolfgang, You offered me the following code to write algorithms. It seems that this does not function very well because the withdrawal of the text no longer exists. Thank you Fabrice \defineframedtext [algorithmframe] [width=fit, background=color, backgroundcolor=lightgray, framecolor=darkred, corner=round] \definelines [algorithm] [space=on, before=\startalgorithmframe, after=\stopalgorithmframe] \starttext \startalgorithm Variables \math{I} et \math{J} entiers T tableau d'entiers Début Pour \math{I} allant de \math{1} à \math{3} Pour \math{J} allant de \math{1} à \math{3} Si \math{J>I} Alors \math{T[I, J]=J-I} Sinon \math{T[I, J]=0} Fin Si Fin Pour Fin \stopalgorithm \stoptext
