Hi I am using context to run a metapost graph. I am however unable to insert a label with \frac, since this is not pure Tex but Latex. This seems to be a known problem for metapost: -Seems for metapost only, one should add %&latex (http://ryanmlayer.wordpress.com/tag/metapost/). -I saw also one post where it was mentione done should add //\setupMPpage[offset=1pt] //(http://www.tug.org/pipermail/pdftex/2001-March/000429.html). I tried, but did not work however... Any idea how I should do? Find below minimal example, that does not work on my computer when compiling with context... Thanks!! Matthieu \starttext \setupMPpage[offset=1pt] \switchtobodyfont[10pt] % Beginning MetaPost graphic \startMPpage label.top(btex 1.4 etex scaled 1.00, (10, 10)); label.top(btex $\sigma_t$ etex scaled 1.00, (0, 10)); label.top(btex $\displaystyle \frac{\sigma_t}{a}$ etex scaled 1.00, (1, 1)); \stopMPpage \stoptext

Dear Hans Thanks for your quick answer! I was however not able to produce the graph with the textext code... Should I actually then use another compiler? I tried with context and texexec (I thought texexec is the compiler for mkiv, right? I'm on linux ubuntu). I saw also that, as you mention, context has a \frac: http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Math_with_newmat I tried then to simply add \usemodule[newmat] and compile with context, but did not work... Code below, error message below below... Thanks a lot!!!!

label.top(textext("1.4") scaled 1.00, (10, 10)); label.top(textext("$\sigma_t$") scaled 1.00, (0, 10)); label.top(textext("$\displaystyle \frac{\sigma_t}{a}$") scaled 1.00, (1, 1));
works ok (only tested mkiv); also \frac is available in context

no, use the 'context' command as texexec is for mkii
I saw also that, as you mention, context has a \frac: http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Math_with_newmat
indeed, \frac is already there for a long time (ams compatible command) btw, in mkiv there is no m-newmath

make sure that a font is loaded that has math before \starttext is seen (try with \setupbodyfont[palatino] at the top of your file) Hans ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | voip: 087 875 68 74 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl -----------------------------------------------------------------

ok, so I was using the right compiler.... I get a mystake while trying to compile a file with the code you sent... you didn't? Would you be so nice and send complete file, so I can check what is wrong?

Andreas Thanks for answer! Is this code you wrote supposed to be the whole doc to compile? And compiled with context? If yes, I got an error again... I have version context --version MTXrun | main context file: /usr/share/texmf/tex/context/base/context.tex MTXrun | current version: 2009.11.26 16:2 Is it likel;y then that the problem is solved in more recent versions? I would try to update then... I am on Ubuntu 10.10 64b, is there a simple way to update from other repos, or should I compile? Thanks for your help!!! Matthieu

that's rather old for a luatex/context combination on the wiki you can find how to install minimals (takes a few minutes only, no compilation needed) Hans ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | voip: 087 875 68 74 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl -----------------------------------------------------------------
