Bibliography issue (using \cite) and endnote typesetting
by Rob Heusdens 14 Jul '14

14 Jul '14

Hello all, I am working on a document (source=HTML) which has as an appendix a complete Bibliography (which I did with BibTex, and works fine), but it also has endnotes (after every \part) which (most often) reference the Bibliography. I did this now as simple endnotes and using the literal text of the notes, since sometimes they do not refer to anything in the Bibliography, therefore I would need to keep them as endnotes and not as cite reference. But for entries that do, my question is: - How to setup \cite so that it displays the fields I want (author, title, address) in the style I want (title=italics). - How to give extra information (like the page reference). And how are notes with "Ibid." (referring to a same cite as a previous footnote) dealt with, is there any mechanism that does that (probably not)? Related to this I have also the following problem with endnotes. I managed to get the notes in the text and where the endnotes are places converted to diplay: [1] (instead of a superscript without the brackets). But how can I configure it to have the same amount of identation for every endnote text. The indentation is now different for notes starting with [10], etc., and the footnote text lines are only indented the first line, following lines starting non-indented. The overall effect I want is that the endnote + endnote text look like being typeset as a tabulation. How can one do that? Many thanks. Rob.

Whitespace within framedtexts
by Idris Samawi Hamid ادريس سماوي حامد 13 Jul '14

Dear gang, How do we activate/control whitespace (and indenting) within framed texts? The following seems to fail: ============== \setupframedtexts [frame=off, location=middle, before={\blank[medium]\setupwhitespace[medium]}, after={\blank[medium]}] \setupwhitespace[medium] \setupindenting[yes,medium,first] \starttext \input knuth \startframedtext \input knuth \stopframedtext \input knuth \stoptext ============== See attached. Thanks in advance and Best wishes Idris -- Idris Samawi Hamid, Professor Department of Philosophy Colorado State University Fort Collins, CO 80523

\head: broken?
by Rob Heusdens 12 Jul '14

12 Jul '14

Hello to all, I don't know if it is due to -the weather- or -the Worldchampionships- or other but in my Context release [ConTeXt ver: 2014.07.11 12:20 MKIV beta fmt: 2014.7.12 int: english/english] \head is broken. Is that a feature or a bug? greetings, Rob ------- \head: broken? When the \head command is used without a following line of normal text, it will result in a context-error. MNWE: \startitemize[n] \head x \stopitemize MWE: \startitemize[n] \head x anything \stopitemize

example of better linebreak with 2014.05.17 compared to 2014.07.07
by Sanjoy Mahajan 10 Jul '14

10 Jul '14

Out of curiosity and as a ConTeXt stress test, I installed 2014.07.07 MkIV and recompiled my book with it, and looked at the pixel-by-pixel comparison between it and the version compiled with 2014.05.17. There were many changes. I am going through them one at a time in case any could be bugs in luatex or context. (I noticed several good changes where pages fit more precisely into their height.) Here is a change that might be a bug. It uses the following minimal example: \setupbodyfont[palatino] \showframe \setuplayout[width=5.4286in] \starttext Let's see whether this estimate is reasonable. According to the plane's technical documentation, the 747-400's four engines together can provide roughly 1~meganewton of thrust. \stoptext With 2014.05.17, the linebreaks are as follows, with no overfull boxes: Let's see whether this estimate is reasonable. According to the plane's technical documentation, the 747-400's four engines together can provide roughly 1 meganewton of thrust. With 2014.07.07, the linebreaks are as follows, but with an overfull box: Let's see whether this estimate is reasonable. According to the plane's tech- nical documentation, the 747-400's four engines together can provide roughly 1 meganewton of thrust. The "roughly" on the second line protrudes a good way into the margin. >From the log file: Overfull \hbox (8.80678pt too wide) in paragraph at lines 7--10 \3>palatino-12pt-rm-tf-0--0 ni-cal doc-u-men-ta-tion, the 747-400’s four en-gines to-gether can pro-vide roughly Both runs use luatex 0.79.1 (svn rev 5033), which I compiled by hand and then did 'context --make' to regenerate the formats. Is this change in linebreaking intended, or could it be an unintended consequence of another change (and therefore maybe problematic)? Perhaps related, the PDF files behave differently with copying and pasting. Copying the paragraph from the 2014.05.17 file, I get spaces between the words. Copying from the 2014.07.07 file, I get no spaces between the words (using mupdf). (The difference may be due to the smaller interword spaces, whose size may have fallen below a threshold that mupdf uses.) I've attached the uncompressed PDFs (each about 14K). -Sanjoy

I already use this own setting for clubs and widows, but was not aware that all penaltys must be set in this. Works fine, thanks! Huseyin
