by luigi scarso 26 Jan '15

26 Jan '15

A quick updated due a bug found by Hans while testing mplib with wrong input. The difference is only in rev: current is This is LuaTeX, Version beta-0.79.3 (TeX Live 2015/dev) (rev 5140) while previously was This is LuaTeX, Version beta-0.79.3 (TeX Live 2015/dev) (rev 5130) (in the future we will try to avoid a <minor>.<minor> number ). -- luigi

New mkiv bibliographic engine: bug with “Editor”/“Editors” differentiation (?)
by Jörg Weger 26 Jan '15

new bibliographic engine: bug with “Editor”/“Editors” differentiation (?) There seems to be a bug in the new MkIV bibliographic engine regarding the differentiation of the “editor” variable into “Editor” (singular) and “Editors” (plural) from BibTeX. I have attached a BibTeX file with only two books, one is a “book” naming one “editor” instead of an “author”, the other is of the “incollection” type and issued by several editors. In the BibTeX file I have used the uninverted names combined with “and”. The same bug applies if you delete all but one editors from the “incollection” example. In the following MWE I have changed the language to English and the style to the pure default APA. In English there should be the differentiation between “(Ed.)” and “(Eds.)” after the name(s) but only the latter applies. % =============== start of MWE ===================================== \setuplanguage [en] \mainlanguage [en] \setupbtx[specification=apa] \definebtxdataset[apa] \usebtxdataset[apa][150126_testbib_short.bib] \setbtxdataset[apa] \definebtxrendering[apa][dataset=apa] \setupbtxrendering[sorttype=authoryear,numbering=no] \starttext \cite[hoffmann:2000] \cite[sereno:1994] \\ \blank \placebtxrendering[criterium=text] \stoptext % =============== end of MWE ======================================= (My ConTeXt version is “2015.01.13 15:54”.)

Simple tocs
by John Culleton 26 Jan '15

26 Jan '15

In this country, and perhaps elsewhere, the front matter in a technical book will have two tables of contents, one listing just major titles (e.g., just chapters and titles or just parts, chapters and titles) followed by another one that lists sections also. Using mkiv I came up with this: \startmakeup \setupcombinedlist[content][list={chapter}] \placelist[content] \stopmakeup \startmakeup \setupcombinedlist[content][list={chapter,section}] \completecontent[content] \stopmakeup \startmakeup \null \stopmakeup I get no results at all, just blank pages.

letter booklet
by John Kitzmiller 25 Jan '15

25 Jan '15

Desired outcome: a multipage booklet on letter size paper with margins lined up when duplex printed and folded. Using imposition with [letter][letter,landscape] did not work, so to start I used: \definepapersize[booklet][width=140mm,height=216mm] \setuppapersize[booklet][letter,landscape] \setuparranging[2UP,doublesided] \setuplayout[width=115mm, leftedge=0mm, leftmargin=0mm, backspace=15mm, rightmargin=0mm, rigthedge=0mm] \showframe \starttext \dorecurse{8}{\input Ward \page} \stoptext but the inside and outside margins do not line up. Where is the elegant path? Thanks, John

contextual alternates
by Pablo Rodriguez 25 Jan '15

Dear list, I have the following sample: \definefontfeature[default][default][script=latn, calt=yes] \definefontfamily[mainface][serif][Pecita] \setupbodyfont[mainface] \starttext \input zapf \stoptext The Pecita font is licensed under the Open Font License and it can be downloaded at http://pecita.eu/b/Pecita.otf. For some strange reason, the contextual alternates feature isn’t working. What am I missing here? Many thanks for your help, Pablo -- http://www.ousia.tk

In regular Context font usage I have this statement that works: \def\Fontsize{13} \font \rm = "file:MinionPro-Regular.otf:+liga;expansion=default;protrusion=quality" at \Fontsize bp How would I use this font in simplefonts? it is the trailing parameters that I don't know how to use in simplefonts, like: :+liga;expansion=default;protrusion=quality -- John Culleton Wexford Press Free list of books for self-publishers: http://wexfordpress.net/shortlist.html Updated PDF e-book: "Create Book Covers with Scribus 1.4.5" coming soon at http://www.booklocker.com/!

linking to html etc. documents from pdf.
by John Culleton 22 Jan '15

DTP programs like Inkscape and Scribus have facilities for linking to urls. Pdftex does also. If this facility exists in Context can some kind soul point me to the documentation?

bug when dealing with XML classes?
by Pablo Rodriguez 22 Jan '15

22 Jan '15

Hans, I have the following sample: \setupbodyfont[30pt] \startbuffer[demo] <doc> <h1>This is my title</h1> <div class="section" class="level1" class="hidden"> <h1>This title is hidden</h1> </div> <div class="section level1 hidden"> <h1>This title is not hidden</h1> <p>Text</p> </div> </doc> \stopbuffer \starttext \startxmlsetups xml:initialize \xmlsetsetup{#1}{div}{xml:div} \xmlsetsetup{#1}{h1}{xml:h1} \xmlsetsetup{\xmldocument}{[@id='epigraph']}{xml:epigraph} \xmlsetsetup{#1}{[@class='hidden']/h1}{} \stopxmlsetups \xmlregistersetup{xml:initialize} \startxmlsetups xml:div \xmlflush{#1} \stopxmlsetups \startxmlsetups xml:h1 \section{\xmlflush{#1}} \stopxmlsetups \xmlprocessbuffer{main}{demo}{} \stoptext ConTeXt MkIV is not able to understand class="section level1 hidden" as class="section" class="level1" class="hidden" and the second attribution is invalid XML (according to the W3C Validator [http://validator.w3.org/] and xmlvalidation.com) class should be only specified once. I think this might be a bug in ConTeXt. Many thanks for your help, Pablo -- http://www.ousia.tk
