I am exploring the feasibility of presenting two interacting PDF files side by side. Thus far my experiments with \usereferences have managed only to produce a lua error: .../ConTeXt/tex/texmf-context/tex/context/base/strc-ref.lua:1394: attempt to call field 'reference' (a nil value) stack traceback: .../ConTeXt/tex/texmf-context/tex/context/base/strc-ref.lua:1394: in function 'identify_outer' .../ConTeXt/tex/texmf-context/tex/context/base/strc-ref.lua:1620: in function 'identify' .../ConTeXt/tex/texmf-context/tex/context/base/strc-ref.lua:1645: in function 'valid' .../ConTeXt/tex/texmf-context/tex/context/base/strc-ref.lua:1667: in function 'doifelsereference' [\directlua]:1: in main chunk The setup-- %testA.tex \starttext text text.\reference[firstpage]{} text text.\footnote[fnote]{A note.} \stoptext %LinkTest.tex \setupinteraction[state=start] \useexternaldocument[testA.tex] \usereferences[testA.tex] \starttext \at{page}[testA.tex::firstpage] \in{note}[testA.tex::fnote] \stoptext

Hi, Hans-- The new beta now processes without interruption but does not actually collect and display the reference. All I get right now is: page note rather than page 1 note 1 The setup (revised)-- %testA.tex \starttext text text.\reference[firstpage]{} text text.\footnote[fnote]{A note.} \stoptext %LinkTest.tex \setupinteraction[state=start] \useexternaldocument[testA.tex] \usereferences[testA.tex] \starttext \at{page}[testA::firstpage] \in{note}[testA::fnote] \stoptext Alan On Thu, Apr 3, 2014 at 6:25 AM, Alan Bowen wrote:

Hi, Hans-- The LinkTest file does not work with either ConTeXt ver: 2014.04.04 or my backup installation, ConTeXt ver: 2014.02.14. Do I things properly encoded? Alan On Thu, Apr 3, 2014 at 10:49 AM, Alan Bowen wrote:

Hi, Hans--

The new beta now processes without interruption but does not actually collect and display the reference.

All I get right now is:

page note

rather than

page 1 note 1

The setup (revised)--

%testA.tex

\starttext

text text.\reference[firstpage]{}

text text.\footnote[fnote]{A note.}

\stoptext

%LinkTest.tex

\setupinteraction[state=start]

\useexternaldocument[testA.tex]

\usereferences[testA.tex]

\starttext

\at{page}[testA::firstpage]

\in{note}[testA::fnote]

\stoptext
