Suddenly, my font is not used any longer
by Nicola 21 Feb '17

21 Feb '17

Hello everyone, I am re-typesetting a mkiv document that uses system fonts for text and math (through \definefontfamily). Suddenly, it renders Latin Roman for the text. May it be a cache corruption problem? I recall that there's a command to clear the font cache, but I cannot remember which. Nicola

Hello I installed ConteXt standalone version. Here is the version details: === mtx-context | ConTeXt Process Management 1.00 mtx-context | mtx-context | main context file: C:/context/tex/texmf-context/ tex/context/base/mkiv/context.mkiv mtx-context | current version: 2017.02.19 17:14 === I am trying to use the following context document which used to work fine before.

تأليف الأربعين ليس عليه، بل على أحاديث أخرى، مثل قوله : (( ليبلِّغ الشاهد منكم الغائب ))، وقوله: (( نضَّر الله امرءاً سمع مقالتي فوعاها )) الحديث، وذكر ثلاثة عشر من العلماء ألَّفوا في الأربعين، أولهم عبد الله بن المبارك، وآخرهم أبو بكر البيهقي، وقال بعد ذكرهم: (( وخلائق لا يُحصون من المتقدِّمين والمتأخرين ))، وقال: (( ثم مِن العلماء مَن جمع الأربعين في أصول الدِّين، وبعضهم في الفروع، وبعضهم في الجهاد، وبعضهم في الزهد، وبعضهم في الآداب، وبعضهم في الخطب، وكلُّها مقاصد صالحة رضي الله تعالى عن قاصديها، وقد رأيتُ جمع أربعين أهم من هذا كلِّه، وهي أربعون حديثاً مشتملة على جميع ذلك، وكلُّ حديث منها قاعدة عظيمة من قواعد الدِّين، قد وصفه العلماء بأنَّ مدارَ الإسلام عليه، أو هو نصف الإسلام أو ثلثه أو نحو ذلك، ثم التزمتُ في هذه الأربعين أن تكون صحيحة، ومعظمها في صحيحي البخاري ومسلم، وأذكرها محذوفة

اشتهارهما والعناية بهما، وأوَّلُ كتاب ينقدح في الأذهان يُرشَد المبتدئون في الحديث إليه هذه الأربعون للإمام النووي رحمه الله، وقد زاد ابن رجب الحنبلي ـ رحمه الله ـ عليها ثمانية أحاديث من جوامع الكلم، فأكمل بها العدَّة خمسين، وشرحها بكتاب سَمَّاه: (( جامع العلوم والحكم في شرح خمسين حديثاً من جوامع الكلم ))، وقد كثرت شروح الأربعين للإمام النووي، وفيها المختصر والمطوَّل، وأوسع شروحها شرح ابن رجب الحنبلي رحمه الله، وقد رأيتُ شرح هذه الأربعين مع زيادة ابن رجب شرحاً متوسِّطاً قريباً من الاختصار، يشتمل شرح كلِّ حديث على فقرات، وفي ختامه ذكر شيء مِمَّا يُستفاد من الحديث، وقد استفدت في هذا الشرح من شروح النووي وابن دقيق العيد وابن رجب وابن عثيمين للأربعين، ومن فتح الباري لابن حجر العسقلاني، وسمَّيتُه: فتح القوي المتين في شرح الأربعين وتتمَّة الخمسين للنووي وابن رجب رحمهما الله، والمتين من أسماء

Specifying the cell column: are \TD[n] and \TD[m] broken?
by Vladimir Lomov 20 Feb '17

Hello, on wiki page [[http://wiki.contextgarden.net/TABLE#Specifying_the_cell_column]] there are two examples (also I found them in tabl-ntb.mkiv) to "skip" empty cells: ------------------------ 8< ------------------------- \bTABLE[width=3em] \bTR\bTD d1 \eTD\bTD[n=2] d2 \eTD\bTD[n=5] d5 \eTD\bTD[n=7] d7 \eTD\eTR \bTR\bTD f1 \eTD\bTD[n=4] f4 \eTD\bTD[n=5] f5 \eTD\bTD[n=7] f7 \eTD\eTR \eTABLE ------------------------ 8< ------------------------- and ------------------------ 8< ------------------------- \bTABLE[width=3em] \bTR\bTD d1 \eTD\bTD[m=2] d2 \eTD\bTD[m=5] d5 \eTD\bTD[m=7] d7 \eTD\eTR \bTR\bTD f1 \eTD\bTD[m=4] f4 \eTD\bTD[m=5] f5 \eTD\bTD[m=7] f7 \eTD\eTR \eTABLE ------------------------ 8< ------------------------- but in current context (Context Standalone, ver. 2017.01.27, ver. 2017.02.19) and in context from TeX Live 2016 (ver. 2016.05.17) these two examples give identical tables that differ from results on the wiki page. P.S. I don't use this feature but find it very interesting and sometimes useful. --- WBR, Vladimir Lomov -- Start every day off with a smile and get it over with. -- W.C. Fields

generate multiple files from one source
by Pablo Rodriguez 19 Feb '17

19 Feb '17

Dear list, I have the following sample: \setuppapersize[A8, landscape] \starttext \dorecurse{10}{ \startpagemakeup[align=center] This is invoice number \recurselevel. Customer name from CSV file. Other data from the same CSV file. \stoppagemakeup} \stoptext How can I get new PDF documents with a one invoice per document instead of new page breaks? I need PDF documents with only one invoice (but with the correct number) and also a single PDF document with all invoices. Of course, my real documents are more complex. What I need is a file breaking command. Appending -1, -2, -3... -n to the PDF file name would be fine for me. How could I achieve this in the ConTeXt compilation? Many thanks for your help, Pablo -- http://www.ousia.tk

LuaTeX 1.0.3 announcement
by Akira Kakuto 19 Feb '17

19 Feb '17

> Luigi has shown me a simple and useful application of ffi: In the case of lua(jit)tex in W32TeX, which are used in context, standard C libraries are linked statically. Thus it is necessary to load a necessary DLL for standard C functions, like the following meaningless example: \starttext $$ j0(1.765)= \startluacode ffi=require("ffi") ffi.cdef[[ double _j0(double x); ]] -- In the case of lua(jit)tex in W32TeX, C libraries are linked -- statically. Thus it is necessary to load a necessary DLL. local msvcrt=ffi.load("msvcrt") tex.print(msvcrt._j0(1.765)) \stopluacode $$ \stoptext It is expected that Windows APIs in the following libs can be used without loading DLL: WSOCK32.dll USER32.dll ADVAPI32.dll SHELL32.dll GDI32.dll KERNEL32.dll WS2_32.dll Best, Akira

a question on setuptex
by Pablo Rodriguez 18 Feb '17

18 Feb '17

Hans, would it be possible that a 32bit ConTeXt Suite can be used with a 64bit architecture in Linux? Sorry, but yesterday I was surprised to see that setuptex isn’t able to find any binaries in Linux if they are 32bit and the processor is 64bit. Of course, it makes sense in that case that a ConTeXt Suite with 64bit binaries is preferred. But as a fallback, 32bit binaries should be fine. Many thanks for your help, Pablo -- http://www.ousia.tk

\textfraction query
by Alan Bowen 18 Feb '17

18 Feb '17

Is there a way to get \textfraction to produce output in cases B or C (either one will do) as it does in case A? If I use \vfrac the output does not sit well beside \textfraction output—and I use the latter elsewhere throughout the document. \definefontfeature[fraction][frac=yes] \definehighlight[textfraction][style={\feature[+][fraction]}] \starttext A. \textfraction{1/2} B. \textfraction{1.5/2} C. \textfraction{{2\textfraction{1/2}}/7} \stoptext Alan

LuaTeX 1.0.3 announcement
by luigi scarso 18 Feb '17

18 Feb '17

============================================================== LuaTeX Release 1.0.3 was released 2017021514 ============================================================== This is a minor upgrade and probably this version will go on texlive. There are a couple of fixes and additions. - We added a few a few more helpers in the pdf namespace (like set|get]gentounicode, [set|get]omitcidset and set|get]decimaldigits. Some helpers were moved from the tex to the pdf namespace. - We added a build_page_insert callback for inserts so that one can for instance adapt spacing on demand. - On the agenda has been some more control over word start and end in hyphenation and this is now possible via hyphenationbounds. We also updated the manual with some more details. - An old tracker item with respect to control over spacing around math was revived and has resulted in mathsurroundmode (one can wonder how useful this is). - We improved the resolution detection in included jpeg images. - An ffi library has been added to luatex so that it is more in sync with luajittex. This permits easy and flexible loading of libraries. Our policy is to make luatex as lean as possible with no dependencies and this is a step towards that. Eventually we hope to support all relevant platforms. - The glue and skip register accessors have been improved as a step in freeing the user from glue spec management. - We added a few more getters and setters for nodes in order to get a more consistent set. - Irrelevant fields have been removed from the status table and an engine identifier has been added. - Of course there are numerous fixes and improvements but none of these have consequences for the interfaces. - The manual has been updated but will be improved over time. Have fun, Hans, Luigi, Taco
