Strange problem with EBGaramond st ligature and 20150901 beta
by Rik Kabel 04 Sep '15

04 Sep '15

Please help with the strangest problem I have come across. The following document fails (does not complete, hangs) when the following conditions hold: * ConTeXt ver: 2015.09.01 11:10 MKIV beta fmt: 2015.9.3 int: english/english * \mainlanguage[en] or fr * Font EBGaramond otf from EBGaramond-0.016.zip https://bitbucket.org/georgd/eb-garamond/downloads * Font features clig and hlig * Font style \it or \sl * Text string (among others) astro istar istra ister istor istro istur The problem is the same with \usemodule[newotf] and without. The problem does not occur with: * ConTeXt ver: 2015.08.30 17:07 MKIV beta fmt: 2015.8.30 int: english/english. * \mainlanguage la or de. * \tf or \sc or \bd (there is no bold in the font). The issue appears to be related to the st ligature, but only in conjunction with some other letters. Can somebody else reproduce the problem. For the record, this is running on Windows 10 Pro 64-bit. The problem document: \definefontfeature [ff:ebg][default][ clig=yes,hlig=yes, %% 1 %% ] \definefontfamily [mainface][serif][ebgaramond] [features=ff:ebg] \setupbodyfont [mainface] % \mainlanguage[la] %% 2 %% \mainlanguage[fr] %% 3 %% \starttext \it %% 4 %% % \tf %% 5 %% astro %% 6 %% % aStro %% 7 %% % asTor %% 8 %% \stoptext -- Rik

Table setups interfering with another table?
by Mari Voipio 03 Sep '15

03 Sep '15

Hello! I have a bit of a table mystery. It seems that the setups of an earlier table interfere with the table coming after it (in the real thing there's text between the tables, but the behaviour is the same). Each table looks fine by itself, but if I compile a file with both, the second one looks weird. What is it that I don't see or understand? And yes, the tables really need to look like that. I'm recreating from a pdf a document that is probably made with Word and this is how they've done their tables in the original. I admit that my ConTeXt version isn't exactly the newest available, it is dated 2015.02.03. If the combination of tables works in newer versions, I'll update, otherwise I'm not keen to fiddle with a working combo. As always, I'll be grateful for any help I can get, Mari

Hi, If you compile the following file with new beta, the placement of the table and the figure is incorrect.

How do I express this with the "th" in a smaller font and elevated? It is a character in the font. -- John Culleton Wexford Press Book layout, typesetting and Indexing Free list of books for self-publishers: http://wexfordpress.net/shortlist.html

float in columns
by Meer, H. van der 01 Sep '15

01 Sep '15

I seem to remember that it was possible to place a figure over the whole width of the page inside columns as for example \startsimplecolumns[n=2] text in 2 columns placefigure-over-fullwidth further text in 2 columns \stopsimplecolumns However, I cannot find with what command this was accomplished. Can someone enlighten me? Hans van der Meer

Title of parts

"By default \part generates no title because most of the times these require special attention and a specific design." I can't find how to write such a specific design. -- Eric Détrez Informatique Lycée Faidherbe, Lille http://eric-detrez.fr
