[fontloader] node injector / december 3 sync
by Philipp Gesang 15 Dec '14

15 Dec '14

Hi Hans, from the huge changeset two weeks ago: +texio.write_nl("The font code has been brought in sync with the context version of 2014.12.01 so") +texio.write_nl("if things don't work out as expected the interfacing needs to be checked. When") -- Message received ;) First off, thanks for bringing the fontloader into sync again. So far I haven’t noticed any obviously broken features. However, something is off with the node injector. We have a bug reported by Hironori Kitagawa that occurs with the ``palt`` feature in node mode: http://tug.org/pipermail/luatex/2014-November/004976.html Importing the shiny new font injector into the merged fontloader fixes the issue. FWIW here are test files https://bitbucket.org/phg/lua-la-tex-tests/src/tip/cnt-features-12-palt.tex https://bitbucket.org/phg/lua-la-tex-tests/src/tip/pln-features-12-palt.tex The Context version runs fine whereas the plain one does so only after my “fix”. The same is true for Context itself: replace font-inj.lua with node-inj.lua in the format to reproduce the issue. Is there a fix to the fontloader, perhaps only temporarily until the revised injector becomes ready? Best, Philipp

xtables in setups
by Andreas Schneider 15 Dec '14

15 Dec '14

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA256 Hi, I'm currently setting up a xml -> pdf template for some technical documentation and wanted to use xtables. However they don't seem to work when within a setup/xmlsetup. Small example (without XML, for the sake of simplicity): ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ \starttext \startsetups test \startxtable \startxrow \startxcell Foo \stopxcell \startxcell Bar \stopxcell \stopxrow \stopxtable \stopsetups \setups[test] \stoptext ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Causes: * tex error > error on line 0 in file : ! Emergency stop Is there anything I'm doing wrong here or did I stumble upon a bug? (If there is no easy fix here, I'm probably going to use LUA to parse the XML and write the TeX part from there which means I could circumvent the need for setups.) Best regards, Andreas -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1 iF4EAREIAAYFAlSPKQwACgkQIxziJkiYZxFTYAEAxsgkiYolYatIyoCPQNDlmp0f pmSdU5HtzfCw2V2ZKs4BAK5E6Qu/ZrE5mIRD2qupwAffokpkIefMlLhzLPYuCTx7 =QetB -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----

PSTricks in Context

> Anyway, the version in TeX Live now runs, but creates wrong results > (it prints out "(0,0)(3,3)" instead of drawing the line for example). In the case of mtx-context | current version: 2014.12.11 12:02 The following is OK. % % context test.tex % \usemodule[pstricks] \starttext \startmidaligned \startPSTRICKS \pspicture(0mm,0mm)(30mm,30mm) \psline(0,0)(3,3) \endpspicture \stopPSTRICKS \stopmidaligned \stoptext Of course there are examples that don't match ConTeXt.

help with command definition
by Pablo Rodriguez 14 Dec '14

14 Dec '14

Dear list, I have the following sample: \setuppapersize[A7,landscape] \def\slide#1{\startstandardmakeup#1\stopstandardmakeup} \def\codeslide#1{\startstandardmakeup \starttyping#1\stoptyping\stopstandardmakeup} \starttext \startstandardmakeup \ConTeXt \stopstandardmakeup \slide{\ConTeXt} \slide{\starttyping\ConTeXt\stoptyping} \codeslide{\ConTeXt} \startstandardmakeup \starttyping \ConTeXt \stoptyping \stopstandardmakeup \stoptext And two questions: Why the third makeup gives such verbose output? Why does \codeslide not work? I guess this may be related to expansion, but I must confess that I don’t know what expansion really is. Many thanks for your help, Pablo -- http://www.ousia.tk

mkii definition of \setupnotedefinition
by Gerben Wierda 13 Dec '14

13 Dec '14

While both mkii and mkiv are formally in operation, it seems ConTeXtgarden has moved to mkiv (more or less). So, as a mkii user, where do I find the documentation of \setupnotedefinition? G

bug in \setupitemize?
by Pablo Rodriguez 12 Dec '14

12 Dec '14

Dear list, I have the following sample: \showframe\showgrid \setuppapersize[A6] \setupitemize[inbetween={\blank[preference,big]}] \starttext \dorecurse{3}{\dorecurse{3}{Sometimes is really hard to place list items. Am I missing something? }\par} \startitemize \item \dorecurse{5}{First item that I try. } \item \dorecurse{15}{Second item that I write. } \item \dorecurse{5}{Third item that I forgot. } \stopitemize \stoptext Although I ask ConTeXt to try to insert a page break between list items (which for some strange reason is avoided), the whole first list item is moved to the next page, leaving a huge blank space in the previous page (where the first list item would completely). I have found this before and this is causing me problems when using lists. Isn’t this a bug? (If not moving a whole first item to the next page when it fits in the previous one, not obeying inbetween={\blank[preference,big]} should be a bug.) Or am I missing something? Many thanks for your help, Pablo -- http://www.ousia.tk

Parameters of a table that interfere on another table

Paragraph numbering
by MANUEL GONZALEZ SUAREZ 12 Dec '14

12 Dec '14

Hello everyone. I have a small question about paragraphs numbering. With LaTeX we have the possibility of numbering \paragraph and \subparagraph. With ConTeXt we have commands \subsubject, etc. What I like to do is number one paragraph in middle of the text, with the possibility of making a reference to it, with no spaces before or after. Something like this: [1] Text of the first paragraph. [2] Text of the second paragraph ... Should I use the \label or another command? Thanks.

[location=text] breaks setups in \setupnotes

Dear list, I have the following sample: \setuppapersize[A6] \startsetups[setups:footnote] \setupinterlinespace[line=5ex] \stopsetups \setupnote[footnote][way=bytext, location=text, setups=setups:footnote, style=\itxx] \starttext Hi\footnote{\input knuth}. \placefootnotes \stoptext For some strange reason, when location=text is set \setupnote, the setups option isn’t honored? Could anyone confirm the bug? Many thanks for your help, Pablo -- http://www.ousia.tk
