ddirectory search
by Meer, Hans van der 14 Jan '16

With for example \setupexternalfigures ConTeXt will search figure files in the directories specified on this command. Is there a corresponding \setup-macro for searching files one wants to input? So that after \setup....[direcory={..,..,..}] an "\input xyz" command (or anything alike) will find xyz.tex. Hans van der Meer

No single platform (other than Akira's binaries) provides 0.87.1 or later. The latest LuaTeX release was 0.87.0, see: https://foundry.supelec.fr/scm/viewvc.php/tags/?root=luatex and the garden ships binaries for 0.87.0 only. If you need a newer LuaTeX, we need a new LuaTeX release. Mojca (I initially missed this question as I often limit my reading based on subject.)

simplefonts question

How to set the calligraphic font in the simplefonts module? With the instructions in the Wiki: \usemodule[simplefonts] \definefontfamily[fallbackfont][serif][lucidaot] \definefontfamily[fallbackfont][sans][lucidaot] \definefontfamily[fallbackfont][mono][lucidaot] \definefontfamily[fallbackfont][math][lucidaot] \setupbodyfont[fallbackfont] \setcalligraphicfont[fallbackfont] and got the following errors: (1) unknow font and (2) unknown definition. open source > 6 > 12 > /Users/hansm/Applications/TeX-sources/context-29/tex/texmf-context/tex/context/base/type-imp-lucida-opentype.mkiv close source > 6 > 12 > /Users/hansm/Applications/TeX-sources/context-29/tex/texmf-context/tex/context/base/type-imp-lucida-opentype.mkiv fonts > defining > font with asked name 'unknown' is not found using lookup 'file' fonts > defining > unknown font 'unknown', loading aborted fonts > defining > unable to define 'unknown' as 'fallbackfont-12pt-rm-tf-0--0' hvdm-fig.tex: ! Undefined control sequence l.11 \setcalligraphicfont [fallbackfont] Why is ConTeXt able to use my Lucida font with simply \setupbodyfont[lucidaot] but does simplefont not? Why is \setcalligraphicfont undefined? Hans van der Meer

font style query
by dr. Hans van der Meer 14 Jan '16

14 Jan '16

Some fonts as for example Lucida have a calligraphic style called up with \cg. If it is not present a default is taken. However, I would like to take other action in that case, for example switching to another font. Thus, how to test on the presence of that calligraphic style in the current font? Hans van der Meer

\startalignment
by Alan BRASLAU 12 Jan '16

12 Jan '16

Hello, Jean-Michel pointed out to me the following curiosity: \starttext \input tufte \startalignment[middle] \input ward \stopalignment \input tufte \stoptext The startalignment applies to the preceding text, too. Strange... I never noticed this before as I have the habit of coding \startalignment\stopalignment blocks set-off with leading and trailing blank lines for better readability. But such practice could lead to undesired results. Consider the following example: \setupwhitespace [big] \starttext \input tufte \startalignment[middle] \input ward \stopalignment \input dawkins \stoptext So \stopalignment implicitly imposes a \par. If I were to omit the blank line before \startalignment so that no big whitespace be included before the centered block, the tufte text will get middle aligned. Also, perhaps I might not wish for the dawkins text to be separated by a big whitespace, logically as in: \startparagraph \input tufte \startalignment [middle] \input ward \stopalignment \input dawkins \stopparagraph Indeed, curious behavior.
