XML expression to read HTML classes
by massifr＠fastwebnet.it 27 Aug '15

27 Aug '15

Hello list, I'm working on HTML typesetting with ConTeXt. I wrote a custom expression to test whether an element has a class: function xml.functions.classes(classAttr) local classes = {} if classAttr then for c in string.gmatch(classAttr, "%S+") do if (string.len(c) > 0) then classes[c] = true end end end return classes end function xml.expressions.hasClass(classAttr, className) if classAttr and className then return xml.functions.classes(classAttr)[className] ~= nil end return false end This way I can write this in my xmlsetup: \xmlsetsetup{#1}{p[hasClass(@class,'myclass1')]}{html:p:myclass1} That is better than - p[@class='myclass1'] (it fails when you have more classes) - p[contains(@class, 'myclass1')] (it gives you false positives when you have class="myclass12") That works, but I would like to write: \xmlsetsetup{#1}{p[hasClass('myclass1')]}{html:p:myclass1} omitting the @class argument, because it's obvious. To omit it I need to access the current collected element. At page 25 of "Dealing with XML in ConTeXt MkIV" it is said that the predefined variables "list","l","ll" (I think I need that one) and "order" are available, but I did not manage to access them. How can I get the current element in Lua to write local classAttr = xml.attribute(currentElement, "", "class") ? Thanks in advance, Massi

Set PDF TrimBox
by Henning Hraban Ramm 27 Aug '15

27 Aug '15

Hi Hans, in May Harald König asked about setting the TrimBox value in PDFs and provided even a patch for lpdf-mis.lua; you promised to look into that, see http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.tex.context/91544/ If there’s only one paper size (from \setuppapersize), TrimBox is the same as CropBox. If there’s a second paper size (like from \setuppapersize[A4][B4]), TrimBox is the first. At least if there’s "marking=on|color|..." in \setuplayout, please also set BleedBox, even if we can’t influence the bleed value. Would be nice if there would be an option to let CropBox be the same as TrimBox or BleedBox. We don’t need ArtBox (in PDF/X it must not differ from TrimBox, if defined). Could you please implement this? Should be really easy… I’m tired of fixing the boxes in Acrobat every time. Thank you very much!

How to prevent sentence-case arttitle in the bibliography?
by Andreas Becker 25 Aug '15

25 Aug '15

I seek to prevent any modification of the capitalization of article titles in the bibliography. What do I need to change in the ConTeXt code to achieve this? The other citation styles I tried besides APA also feature lowercasing. I am aware of a workaround: Enclosing the capital letters in the .bib file with curly brackets. However, I would prefer a method that does not involve editing the .bib database. I use Mark IV. My approach was to edit /usr/share/texmf-dist/tex/context/bib/bibl-apa.tex, however, I could not find a way to locate or modify the macro \insertarttitle. Regards, Andreas Becker
