base64 encoded inline images
by Henning Hraban Ramm 28 Oct '16

28 Oct '16

Hi, can ConTeXt handle base64 encoded inline images, and how? I'm trying to process some HTML files that contain those. Makes not a lot of sense, but if ConTeXt can handle them, I don’t need to extract them as files.

texexec in ConTeXt Standalone does not work
by Asim ConTeXt 27 Oct '16

27 Oct '16

Dear list members, I am new to ConTeXt world. I have installed ConTeXt Standalone according to the instructions given in ConTeXt Standalone with TexWorks <http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Windows_Installation#ConTeXt_Standalone_with_…> and instructions given in Windows Installation <http://wiki.contextgarden.net/ConTeXt_Standalone#Windows>. I added the address of context.exe into the Processing Tools of TeXworks, according to instruction # 6 in ConTeXt Standalone with TexWorks <http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Windows_Installation#ConTeXt_Standalone_with_…> and compiled a simple ConTeXt document, it works fine. But I want to use texexec (MkII), I had installed Ruby according to the instruction 1. I added address of texexec.exe to the Processing Tools of TeXworks; but when I try to compile the simple document, it does not work and gives the following warning and stops without giving any output pdf file: > warning: c:/Users/bsee1206/Desktop/ConTeXt/tex/texmf/web2c/texmf.cnf:49: > (kpathsea) No cnf value on line: OSFONTDIR =. > Any suggestions?

Algorithmic, Floats and line numbers.
by Javier M Mora 27 Oct '16

27 Oct '16

Hi, I'm trying to use Algorithmic module with floating and line numbering. In the first attempt, I get the "code" with lines numbered. But isn't floating. In the second one, line numbers disappear inside the floating block. Two questions: * How can I get line numbers inside floating block? * In algorithms, I think it has more sense to number only "logical" lines. The second state is so long that wraps into another line. Is it possible to number only logical lines? This is my little test file: \starttext \usemodule[algorithmic] %% First Attempt \startalgorithmic[numbering=yes] \STATE a = 2 \STATE this line is really very large. Very very very very very very very very very very very large \STATE this is the real third state. \stopalgorithmic \definefloat[algorithm][algorithms] \setupfloat[algorithm][ background=color, backgroundcolor=gray, ] %% Second Attempt \startplacealgorithm[title={Floating algorithm}] \startalgorithmic[numbering=yes] \STATE a = 2 \STATE this line is really very large. Very very very very very very very very very very very large \STATE this is the real third state. \stopalgorithmic \stopplacealgorithm \stoptext Thanks. jmmora.

mathsf / mathversions in context
by Csikos Bela 27 Oct '16

27 Oct '16

Dear list members: I would like to set up Tex Gyre Adventor sans serif font as my math font (even if it doesn't have math symbols). I have two questions related to this problem. 1. In latex I can specify math font versions, define a specific font as math serif / normal, another as math sans serif etc. (http://milde.users.sourceforge.net/LUCR/Math/math-font-selection.xhtml) Is this possible in context, and if yes, how? 2. If I specify Tex Gyre Adventor as default math font in context, I get compile error. Here is a MWE, file name is mathfont.tex: -------- \definefontfamily [mathfont] [sf] [Tex Gyre Bonum] \definefontfamily [mathfont] [mm] [Tex Gyre Adventor] \setupbodyfont[mathfont,10pt] \starttext Normal text. \math{Inline math expression.} Normal text. \stoptext -------- Running context mathfont.tex gives: This is LuaTeX, Version 0.98.3 (TeX Live 2017/dev) system commands enabled. .... tex error > tex error on line 9 in file ..../mathfont.tex: ! Math error: parameter \Umathquad\textstyle is not set \m_syst_action_nop ...artimath #1\normalstopimath \fi l.9 \math{Inline math expression.} 1 \definefontfamily [mathfont] [sf] [Tex Gyre Bonum] 2 \definefontfamily [mathfont] [mm] [Tex Gyre Adventor] 3 \setupbodyfont[mathfont,10pt] 4 5 \starttext 6 7 Normal text. 8 9 >> \math{Inline math expression.} 10 11 Normal text. 12 13 \stoptext ? I would appreciate any help or explanations on the topic, or naming a document that explains it. Thanks in advance, bcsikos

Dear maintainers, in the Greek language definitions the definitions for the quotation marks are missing (originally reported in https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/336205) The following examples illustrates the problem and also provides an immediate fix: \startmode[fix] % these were forgotten \def\greekleftquot {\leftguillemot } \def\greekrightquot{\rightguillemot} \stopmode \mainlanguage[gr] \setupbodyfont[computer-modern-unicode]% font with greek script \starttext \quotation{Νέα Ελληνικά} \stoptext Please fix.

marginal heads as standard option?
by Pablo Rodriguez 26 Oct '16

26 Oct '16

Hans, I have the following sample: \setuphead[section][alternative=margin] \starttext \section{afeasdf} \input knuth \section{afeasfdf} \input zapf \stoptext Would it be possible to have value to the "alternative" key that automatically places the head on the margin? I mean, not only the number, but the whole title. Probably this option should allow the user to set head in the inner, outer, left and right margins. I know that it should be possible with an extra command, but consider that "reverse" is also a value for the "alternative", Many thanks for your help, Pablo -- http://www.ousia.tk

Re: [NTG-context] Example of Equivalent of Beamer with \onslide

<alpine.OSX.2.02.1610221224480.49105@nqv-znpobbx> Thanks for sharing your personal module, Aditya. Do you have a way to get a paper version of the same thing without the printer giving multiple pages showing the step progression? I was hoping ConTeXt would provide a more integrated approach to producing different outputs while still maintaining the functionalities of the presentation output. Perhaps the technology will catch up or perhaps the need for paper output will become obsolete. But some things move rather slowly in the high school education line. Thanks for all the prompt responses so far. @-->------ May you be happy and well! B.A. ------<--@

Multiple Choice Quiz with self marking funciton
by B.A.Lee 25 Oct '16

25 Oct '16

Hi, I am new to ConTeXt but have been using LaTeX for years. Just before I came across ConTeXt, I ran across Acrotex eDucation Bundle. One of its packages allows us to create multiple choice quizzes which has some self-harming features when done on screen. It also has a paper equivalent. I am wondering if anyone is willing to share his/her setups for multiple choice, with or without the self-harming feature. I am also wondering if ConTeXt has that self-harming feature too. If it can, I hope too see an example of how it can be done. Many thanks in advance. May you be well and happy!B.A.
