That refers to the "booktabs" LaTeX package and the accomanying docs that setup/describe conservative table settings. It shows some interesting considerations, but I find most settings not only oldfashioned but a matter of taste (indents, different line widths etc.) Grüßlis vom Hraban! --- http://www.fiee.net/texnique/ http://contextgarden.net

Ah really? It is not intended to be used as it is, just an idea how you can get lines with different widths. -- Eckhart

Hi all,

I've tried to typeset in Russian with utf-8 fonts, like explained at contextgarden.net/Russian. cm-super-fonts are installed, included tfm-, enc- and map-files. Running the example

\enableregime[utf] \useencoding[cyr]

\definetypeface [russian] [rm] [serif] [computer-modern] [default] [encoding=t2a]

\setupbodyfont[russian] \starttext ???? ? ???? % Some Russian characters \stoptext

I got error messages (see the attached logfile): the font larm1000 was not found.

Have I to edit some lines in type-map.tex? Or what could be wrong?

If I add to type-map.tex: \starttypescript [map] [computer-modern] [t2a] \loadmapfile[cm-super-t2a.map] \stoptypescript I get russian fonts, but these are not the right ones. I would be very glad, if anyone could help me to solve the problem. Thanks Albrecht

With many thanks for any hint Albrecht

Dear Mikael, thank you very much for your interest. tfm-files I have generated, and the tex-file is really saved in utf-8-encoding (I proved this with yudit). After editing the lines \starttypescript [map] [computer-modern] [t2a] \loadmapfile[cm-super-t2a.map] \stoptypescript in type-map.tex, the interpreter finds the font sfrm1000; but the characters are wrong. I send you the log- and pdf-file attached. Thanks again Albrecht On Wed, 13 Apr 2005, Mikael Persson wrote:

Hello Albrecht, Are you sure that you have saved your file in the utf-8 encoding and not in koi8r or something? The problem of getting the wrong characters can come from that. Moreover, the example: %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% \enableregime[utf] \useencoding[cyr] \definetypeface [russian] [rm] [serif] [computer-modern] [default] [encoding=t2a] \setupbodyfont[russian] \starttext ???? ? ???? % Some Russian characters \stoptext %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% from the wiki page works here. (Ok, since I wrote the page it would be kind of weird if it did not). Have you generated the tmf files? Have anyone else tried if it works for them? Regards, Micke P

Hi Hans, Hi all, i try to use mswintex.zip (16.03.05). Sometimes there are funny Characters in the pdf i did not typed.

Hello Lutz, is your text editor set to utf-16? If yes, set it to utf8 or something else. Patrick -- ConTeXt wiki and more: http://contextgarden.net

Hi Lutz, I use exclusively scite 1.63 with the properties files delivered with the Context distr. - I never had this problem. At least with TeXExec 5.2.4 - ConTeXt / PRAGMA ADE 1997-2005 This is pdfeTeXk, Version 3.141592-1.20a-2.2 (Web2c 7.5.3) \starttext\stoptext does create the expected empty doc with the pagenumber centered in the header.

I think, my SciTe 1.63 editor puts these characters into every new file. Is this a known problem? Has anybody the same effect? I use SciTe 1.63 for Windows + ConTeXt .properties files.

scite indeed does this (kind of annoying) context can handle that for xml files i can consider handling it automatically (i.e. when BOM before first start-stop, then assume utf-8) Hans ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | fax: 038 477 53 74 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl -----------------------------------------------------------------
