I am working on making a letter head which will have two separate main components. 1.) A jpeg graphical component and a 2.) the companies address (probably created with tabulate, but I don't know yet. I wanted to ask what other people have done when using similar methods? Any advice will be greatly appreciated..

\placetable whitespace problem in columnset
by Bryor Snefjella 31 Oct '14

31 Oct '14

I have a document using columnsets to place tables near an entry in a long list of sorts. The problem is that wherever I issue a \placetable \placefigure etc command, I get unwanted extra whitespace between entries where the command is issued. I have tried changing the parameters in \setupfloats, but haven't found a setting that works. I'm using the context version distributed with the latest texlive. You can see the extra whitespace between entry Q and R in this example. \definecolumnset[TwoColumns][n=2,distance=0.04\makeupwidth] \setupindenting[yes, small] \setupfloats[before=,after=] \definedescription [MyEntry][alternative=serried,width=fit,before=\indentation,indenting=yes] \unexpanded\def\MyCommand#1#2#3% {\startMyEntry{\bi#2:}#3\stopMyEntry} \definesorting[My][Mys] \starttext \startcolumnset[TwoColumns] \definecolumnsethsize{TwoColumns}{1}{1}\One \startbuffer \placetable[lrtb][tab:mytable]{My Table}{ \bTABLE[option=stretch,textwidth=\One,align=middle] \bTR\bTH Foo \eTH\bTH Bar \eTH\eTR \bTR\bTD Bar \eTD\bTD Foo \eTD\eTR \bTR\bTD Foo \eTD\bTD Bar \eTD\eTR \eTABLE} \stopbuffer \My[Q]{\input knuth\getbuffer} \My[R]{\input knuth} \My[C]{\input knuth} \My[A]{\input knuth} \placelistofsorts[My][criterium=all,command=\MyCommand] \stopcolumnset \stoptext

Error Messages

Hi, After upgrading to version 2014.10.07, I recompiled a document that had gathered some dust and was greeted with: tex error > error on line 34 in file ...: ! Math error: parameter \Umathquad\displaystyle is not set The document compiled using a previous version, and no changes were made prior to upgrading. Having the line number and filename is a good start. The error message, however, is confounding. >From this error message I have no idea: - What triggered the error. - Why \Umathquad\displaystyle is relevant. - How to resolve the problem. >From superficial appearances, line 34 is fine (itemized list). In addition to the error message, would it be possible to provide a link to the wiki that offers more information? The information on the wiki page would include: - a unique identifier for the error number (e.g., err-tex-00001) - the error string ("Math error: parameter ... is not set") - a simple document that shows how to reproduce the problem - a document that shows one way to fix the issue - if relevant, note the ConTeXt version(s) that the simple document compiles without error - a brief description of why the error happens (i.e., explain why the error shows up in the subsequent ConTeXt versions) Thank you.

Any plans on documentation?
by MANUEL BLANCO IRIGARAY 27 Oct '14

27 Oct '14

Hi, I think I saw in the plan of the ConTeXt meeting something about documentation. Was anything cleared there? Is there a plan to document ConTeXt? At least the basics, updating old manuals and adding the most important “features” or changes. Cheers. Manuel

framed and placefigure
by DesdeChaves 27 Oct '14

27 Oct '14

why this happens: After a specification of the foregroundcolor the figures are behind a framed color. \setupframed[offset=2mm, corner=round, background=color, backgroundcolor=blue, foregroundcolor=yellow, frame=off, strut=no, align=normal, location=top, width=\textwidth] For example, is this case my \placefigure[right,nonumber,2*hang] {}{\externalfigure[ostrichhead][width=5cm]} is behind a yellow framed rectangle.

Resume source
by Kip Warner 26 Oct '14

26 Oct '14

Hey list, I've gone through the letter module manual below: <http://bitbucket.org/wolfs/correspondence/downloads/correspondence.pdf> On p.130 of 148, as indexed by my renderer, there is a great looking resume template that is blue and black on light grey. I've tried looking for the source of this everywhere, including in the book's, but I can't seem to find it. Can anyone help me? -- Kip Warner -- Senior Software Engineer OpenPGP encrypted/signed mail preferred http://www.thevertigo.com

bug sorting index?
by Pablo Rodriguez 25 Oct '14

25 Oct '14

Dear list, I have the following sample: \starttext \index{tipografía digital} \index{tipografías} \index{idioma+de un pasaje} \index{idioma+del documento} \completeindex \stoptext No matter what language I choose (en, de, nl, es, fr), sorting order is wrong: "tipografía" comes before "tipografías" and "de" comes before "del". I’m afraid this may be a bug introduced in latest beta from 2014.10.22 16:23. Many thanks for your help, Pablo -- http://www.ousia.tk

Re: [NTG-context] korean unfonts "globbing path" error
by Jeong Dal 24 Oct '14

24 Oct '14

Dear Hans, >> >> http://www.ktug.org/xe/index.php?_filter=search&mid=KTUG_QnA_board&search_t… >> >> I hope that you have the solution. > > not for latex … afaik it uses its own font database > Yes, the above solution is not for latex but for Lualatex. One of my colleague who try to run Lualatex(TeXlive 2013 in the window 7) first time had a similar problem. After removing Korean fonts like penhl.ttf, taenmr.ttf from the system font file directories, she can run Lualatex. Someone registered those files in the blacklist which LuaTeX referred to when it scans fonts, and succeed to make font db. Anyway, it is not the ConTeXt problem. It is because of the problematic fonts. Thank you for your concern. Best regards, Dalyoung
