spaces in xml index
by Thomas A. Schmitz 26 Jun '13

26 Jun '13

Hi all, back with a question on index entries in xml. I have the problem that my processing command inserts empty spaces. \removeunwantedspaces does not remove the unwanted spaces; \ignorespaces removes even wanted spaces. Can anybody help?

\centerline vs. \midaligned vs. \startalignment[middle]
by Procházka Lukáš Ing. - Pontex s. r. o. 26 Jun '13

26 Jun '13

Hello, there are several similar commands to produce text (or another object) to be centered on the line. What are differences (or intended usage) among \centerline, \midaligned, \startalignment[middle]? (NB: \centerline has no its-own page on wiki, but it is used at several places in wiki samples. \centerline was also mentioned here in the mailing list, when I was trying to center "tabulate" - and neither \midaligned nor \startalignment[middle] combined with \dontleavehmode worked.) TIA. Best regards, Lukas -- Ing. Lukáš Procházka [mailto:LPr@pontex.cz] Pontex s. r. o.

context command behaviour
by Meer, H. van der 26 Jun '13

26 Jun '13

The help (command "context") tells me: mtx-context | --noconsole disable logging to the console (logfile only) mtx-context | --batchmode run without stopping and do not show messages on the console However, neither lives up to its promise. See the two sample runs below. Because I would like to run context silently from within a Lua program, I would appreciate if this can be repaired.

wrong interlinespace or wrong font?
by Pablo Rodríguez 25 Jun '13

25 Jun '13

Dear list, with the following sample: \setupinterlinespace[line=3.2ex] \usemodule[simplefonts] \setmainfont[UnifrakturMaguntia] \starttext xAAbfas\\xAAbfas\\xAAbfas\\ \stoptext I have the impression that the interline space is too small. Has the font wrong defined metrics or is there something I'm missing? Many thanks for your help, Pablo -- http://www.ousia.tk

Bold Small Caps
by Malte Stien 25 Jun '13

25 Jun '13

Hello, I am trying for bold small caps, such like {\bf This is bold {\sc and bold small caps} and just bold again} However, out of the box, the inner {\sc ...} part is not typeset in bold. So after a bit of looking I found this: http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Bold_small_caps But it does not work for me. I noticed the module (http://pmrb.free.fr/work/OS/ConTeXt/) is from 2006, so the bit rot might have set in. Should it still work? Or is there a better way these days? Thank you, Malte. -- “The Electric Monk was a labour-saving device, like a dishwasher or a video recorder...

wrong page break if avoiding orphans and widows
by Pablo Rodríguez 25 Jun '13

25 Jun '13

Dear list, I have in a document in which I get a wrong page break (http://www.ousia.tk/wrongpb.png) when I enable this code to avoid widows and orphans: \setuplayout[setups=*lessstrict, cutspace=3cm,backspace=3cm] \startsetups[*lessstrict] \setup[reset] \widowpenalty=10000 \clubpenalty=10000 \brokenpenalty=10000 \stopsetups I'm afraid that this causes that the first line from the page on the right should be added to the page on the left. If I'm not wrong, there is space available for it. What am I doing wrong here? Many thanks for your help, Pablo -- http://www.ousia.tk

Portrait vs. landscape orientation for Tabloid paper
by Pavneet Arora 25 Jun '13

25 Jun '13

I believe that the definitions for portrait and landscape orientation for Tabloid/Ledger paper are flipped. In the following MWE using Hans' clue to using \scaling directive, I am having to specify landscape in order for the page to be set in portrait. This observation is confirmed when I retrieve the document properties using evince under Bodhi Linux and under Ubuntu 12.04 (<ALT><ENTER> brings up the document properties). With this MWE, the properties under both systems is shown as "Tabloid, Portrait (11.00 x 17.00 inches)" Have I got this right? MWE: \setuppapersize[tabloid,landscape][tabloid,landscape] \setuplayout[ backspace=0.5in, width=10in, topspace=1.0in, header=0in, footer=0in, height=16.5in] \setuppagenumbering[location=,state=stop] \usemodule[simplefonts] \setmainfont[schola] \setupbodyfont[rm,16pt] \setupinterlinespace[line=2.8ex] \starttext %\showlayout[in,pt] \setupMPinstance [metafun] [extensions=yes, initializations=yes] \startuseMPgraphic{Example} u:=1cm; pickup pencircle scaled 1pt; draw (5u,0u) {dir 90}..(0u,5u) {dir 180}; draw (0u,5u) ..

Re: [NTG-context] Using \setupinterlinespace with \setuparranging[XY], and more
by Pavneet Arora 25 Jun '13

25 Jun '13

By chance I found a possible, but not very satisfying, solution to the \setupinterlinspace issue when trying to print labels using \setuparranging[XY]. That is to explicitly set \setupbodyfont[rm,18pt]\setupinterlinespace once again outside the \framed directive for the specific label as in the following MWE. I haven't seen any answers on my other two questions from the original post (included down below), so if anyone has any ideas, I would be most grateful. MWE: \definepapersize [Label] [width=4in,height=3.33in] \setuppapersize[Label][letter,portrait] \setuppaper [topspace=0.4688in, backspace=0.1875in, dx=0.1875in, dy=0in, nx=2, ny=3] \setuplayout [topspace=0in, backspace=0in, margin=0in, width=4in, height=3.33in, header=0in, footer=0in] \setuparranging[XY] \setupframedtexts [width=\textwidth, height=\textheight, alignment=center, frame=off, location=lohi, alignment=center, offset=0pt] \setuplayout[location=middle] \definelayer [Label] [width=\paperwidth, height=\paperheight] \usemodule[simplefonts] \setmainfont[schola] \setupbodyfont[rm,48pt] \setupinterlinespace[line=2.8ex] \showframe \starttext \the\baselineskip\page \framed[frame=off,width=\textwidth,height=\textheight,aligment=center]{Label 1}\page \the\baselineskip\page \framed[frame=off,width=\textwidth,height=\textheight,aligment=center]{\definedfont[Serif at 18pt]\setupinterlinespace \the\baselineskip\crlf A long description label that needs to be have its interline spacing adjusted.}\page Label 2\page \setupbodyfont[rm,18pt] \setupinterlinespace \framed[frame=off,width=\textwidth,height=\textheight,aligment=center]{ \the\baselineskip\crlf Another long description label that needs to be have its interline spacing adjusted.}\page Label 3\page Label 4\page Label 5\page Label 6\page Label 7\page Label 8\page \stoptext On 22Jun13, ntg-context-request(a)ntg.nl wrote: > Hello, > > I am using Willi's MAPS 37 and the "Example" section from the \setuppaper command: > > http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Command/setuppaper > > to print a set of labels, 2x6 configuration on U.S. Letter waterproof > label paper. > > For the most part things are working well, but I have a number of questions: > > 1.
