two questions about \definefontfamily
by Thomas A. Schmitz 06 Jun '16

06 Jun '16

Hi all (especially Wolfgang), I have two questions about the font selection mechanism. 1. Three weeks ago you replied to a question from Pablo Rodriguez and wrote (https://mailman.ntg.nl/pipermail/ntg-context/2016/085508.html) "You have to use scale instead of rscale for the \definefontfamily and \definefallbackfamily commands for the moment but I will change it to rscale." In the meantime, you have changed this keyword. I have lots of styles that use "scale." Would it be very inconvenient to leave "scale" as a legacy synonym / alternative to rscale? That would be my feature request... 2. The following example: \definefallbackfamily [Test] [serif] [GentiumAlt] [range={greekandcoptic,greekextended},force=yes,rscale=3] \definefontfamily [Test] [serif] [TeX Gyre Termes] \setupbodyfont [Test,10pt] \starttext Test Μῆνιν ἄειδε \stoptext does not produce any output. It I replace "Test" with the lowercase "test," I get the expected output. Do you have an explanation for this? Thanks, and all best Thomas

A rather special case of a chapter-start
by Willi Egger 05 Jun '16

05 Jun '16

Dear list! I have a book, in which I should repeat the title of the book on top of the first chapter title. - I thought that should be solvable with playing with the headertexts. However it seems, that it is not possible to force ConTeXt to place the headertexts-contents for a chapter, yes it displays the header space (header=empty} or removes the header space (header=high) in \setuphead[chapter]. MWE: \setuppagenumbering[location=] \setuplayout [header=40pt, headerdistance=10pt] \setupheader [state=normal] \setupheadertexts [Why not visible?][][][] \setuphead [chapter] [header=empty] \setupbackgrounds [header] [frame=on] \starttext \input ward \page \startchapter[title=test] \input knuth \page \input ward \stopchapter \stoptext Hints would be welcome! Kind regards Willi

Bug with setuplanguage
by Aditya Mahajan 05 Jun '16

05 Jun '16

Hi, I discovered this bug while answering a question on TeX.SX. Consider: \define\cyrdash{\dontleavehmode\scale[sx=0.80]{---}} \unprotect \setuplanguage [\s!ru] [ \c!midsentence=\cyrdash, \c!leftsentence=\cyrdash, \c!rightsentence=\cyrdash, ] \protect \setupbodyfont[dejavu] \starttext Normal text|<|English \mainlanguage[ru] Normal text|<|Russian \stoptext The pdf shows: Normal text—English Normal text„Russian Why the quote instead of the emdash. The output is okay is if \mainlanguage is set before |<| is used for the first time. Aditya

Space between the main items

Hello everyone, How to insert more vertical space between the main items in the following code ? \def\point#1#2{$\bigl(#1\,;#2\bigr)$} \def\vector#1{\vec{#1}} \definemathmatrix [pmatrix] [left={\left(\,},right={\,\right)}] \starttext \startitemize[n][stopper={.},style=bold,color=darkred] \item Les coordonnées du vecteur \math{\vector{AB}} sont : \blank[formula] \startitemize[a,columns,joinedup,pack,1*broad,four] [stopper={.},style=bold,color=darkred] \item \math{\startpmatrix 2 \NR 1\NR \stoppmatrix} \item \math{\startpmatrix -2 \NR 2\NR \stoppmatrix} \item \math{\startpmatrix 3 \NR -3 \NR \stoppmatrix} \item \math{\startpmatrix -3 \NR 3 \NR \stoppmatrix} \stopitemize \blank[formula] \item Les coordonnées du vecteur \math{\vector{CD}} sont : \blank[formula] \startitemize[a,columns,joinedup,pack,1*broad,four] [stopper={.},style=bold,color=darkred] \item \math{\startpmatrix -2 \NR 3 \NR \stoppmatrix} \item \math{\startpmatrix 1 \NR 5 \NR \stoppmatrix} \item \math{\startpmatrix 0 \NR 5 \NR \stoppmatrix} \item \math{\startpmatrix 5 \NR 0 \NR \stoppmatrix} \stopitemize \blank[formula] \item Les coordonnées du vecteur \math{\vector{p}=\vector{AC}+\vector{FE}} sont : \blank[formula] \startitemize[a,columns,joinedup,pack,1*broad,four] [stopper={.},style=bold,color=darkred] \item \math{\startpmatrix 3 \NR 3 \NR \stoppmatrix} \item \math{\startpmatrix -3 \NR 3 \NR \stoppmatrix} \item \math{\startpmatrix 3 \NR -3 \NR \stoppmatrix} \item \math{\startpmatrix -3 \NR -3 \NR \stoppmatrix} \stopitemize \blank[formula] \item Les coordonnées du point \math{G} tel que \math{\vector{BG}=\vector{FA}} sont : \blank[formula] \startitemize[a,columns,joinedup,pack,1*broad,four] [stopper={.},style=bold,color=darkred] \item \point{1}{3} \item \point{3}{2} \item \point{2}{3} \item \point{1}{-4} \stopitemize \stopitemize \stoptext

How can I create a table from a CSV file?
by cryo shock 02 Jun '16

02 Jun '16

Hello together, I am fighting with creating a table from a CSV file. I found the "MyWay" doc by Mojca. But the doc is 10 years old and for example the command \defineseperatedlist gives me an error: unkown command. Is there a newer doc that I missed somewhere? I have a CSV file with values seperated by tabs. What code should I use to let CTX read the values and print them in the document? Let's say the values are 11 tab 12 tab 13 21 tab 22 tab 23 31 tab 32 tab 33 and the file is called values.csv Greetings, Seba

Colon as non-operator
by Hans Åberg 31 May '16

31 May '16

It is possible to get the symbol : COLON U+003A to expand to \colon, instead of the ratio operator, as it is now? The latter is rather rare in pure math, and in addition, it seems to have been reversed in the implementation with ∶ RATIO U+2236, cf. example below. \setupbodyfont[xits,10pt] \startformula \startalign \NC f\NC\colon A→B \NR % Produces ∶ RATIO U+2236 \NC f\NC: A→B \NR % : COLON U+003A \NC f\NC ∶ A→B \NR % ∶ RATIO U+2236 \stopalign \stopformula

question about an lpath
by Pablo Rodriguez 31 May '16

31 May '16

Dear list, I have the following sample: \startbuffer[demo] <div class="super"> <h1>Chapter</h1> <p>This is the only paragraph in red.</p> <p>This is another paragraph.</p> <p>This is another paragraph.</p> <p>This is another paragraph.</p> <p>This is another paragraph.</p> </div> \stopbuffer \startxmlsetups xml:initialize \xmlsetsetup{#1}{*}{xml:*} \xmlsetsetup{#1} {div[contains(@class,'super')]/p[position()==1]} {xml:p:super} \stopxmlsetups \xmlregistersetup{xml:initialize} \startxmlsetups xml:div \xmlflush{#1} \stopxmlsetups \startxmlsetups xml:h1 \title{\xmlflush{#1}} \stopxmlsetups \startxmlsetups xml:p \xmlflush{#1}\par \stopxmlsetups \startxmlsetups xml:p:super \bgroup\red\xmlflush{#1}\egroup\par \stopxmlsetups \starttext \xmlprocessbuffer{main}{demo}{} \stoptext Would it be possible to have another lpath for xml:p:super similar to the following CSS selector? (Sorry, this is much easier for me.) div.super > h1 + p {} After searching in xml-mkiv.pdf, I’m afraid I haven’t been able to find which might be the lpath replacement for "+". Many thanks for your help, Pablo -- http://www.ousia.tk

LuaTeX finds font, mtxrun --fonts does not list it?
by Sandra Snan 30 May '16

30 May '16

I'm trying to add a ttf font (Futura) so I can use it in ConTeXt. I've ran mtxrun --script fonts --list --all |less looked at a ttf font that was there, copied my Futura ttfs to the same directory it was in, and ran mtxrun --script fonts --reload --force But I still can't find it in mtxrun --script fonts --list --all |less nor can I use it in ConTeXt. (The filenames don't have spaces.) The curious thing is that the luatex cache has it. It's listed in /home/sandra/.texmf-var/luatex-cache/generic/names/luaotfload-names.luc under various names, all starting with "futuralt". Curiously, /home/sandra/.texmf-var/luatex-cache/context/[number]/fonts/otf/futuralt-book.tm[ac] exist. But the only "book-" related name in luaotfload-names.luc is futuraltbook, not futuralt-book. Neither worked in ConTeXt, though. How do I move forward with this, how do I add ttfs so that ConTeXt understand them? Sandra

Avoiding \startformulas starting new paragraph
by Hans Åberg 30 May '16

30 May '16

In the example below, \startformulas starts a new paragraph with indenting, whereas \startformula does not. Is there any way to avoid that? \setupbodyfont[xits,10pt] \setupindenting[yes, medium, next] \starttext Some text. Some more text \startformulas \startformula 2 + 2 = 4 \stopformula \startformula 2 + 2 = 1 \mod 3 \stopformula \stopformulas ending here. Some more text \startformula 2 + 2 = 1 \mod 3 \stopformula ending here. No more text. \stoptext
