[NTG-context] PDF output routine in lmtx
Hi in lmtx the pdf output routine has changed afaik. I just wanted to report, that in lmtx our printer/copier (Ricoh 8200S or Ricoh 8110S) doesn't print any character. A standard document as the MWE prints well under mkiv. Under lmtx, there is no output (blank sheet). In a document with a tikz-figure, the tikz-figure (without labels, as they are text) is printed. Something with text output must have changed, that makes it incompatible with the copier at our school. I tried to print with different drivers and also used the printers interface (direct print via usb-stick). No success. Are they some flags I can play with (like other pdf-version or so) to find a solution to this problem? This "bug" prevents me to use lmtx at out school. MWE: \starttext That is a test. \stoptext Of course there is no problem with the preview and the output works on a HP-Printer. Many thanks for all suggestions!

Perhaps. Or generated by older software. Though my GraphicsMagick (1.3.28): "gm identify input.png" doesn't tell me anything about a "CRC error": input.png PNG 334x168+0+0 DirectClass 8-bit 29.6Ki 0.000u 0m:0.03s Anyway, at the beginning of a new book there are 10 of such images with artefacts.

[NTG-context] Lua os.date() localization in context
Hi all,
I would like to print the day name of a date in french using my current
locale.
In lua I can do:
> os.setlocale('fr_FR.UTF-8',all)
> print(os.date("%A"))
But in a cld document it doesn't work. Context complains about using
"os.locale in a supposedly locale neutral enviroment" and it prints the
day name in english.
How can I translate the day names without hardcoding everything?
Thanks in advance.
Best.

[NTG-context] registers: setting pageleft parameter by index term
Hello list, please consider this MWE:
\definenumber[p]
\setnumber[p][1]
\def\PageLeft{ p.~}
\def\TextCommand#1{\getnumber[p]
#1\doif{\rawcountervalue[p]}{2}{\def\PageLeft{ P.~}}\incrementnumber[p]}
\setupindex[n=1,pageleft=\PageLeft,pageright=,textcommand=\TextCommand]
\starttext
Foo\index{foo}.
\page
Bar\index{bar}.
\page
Baz\index{baz}.
\page
\placeindex
\stoptext
The pageleft parameter of \setupindex (\setupregister) is normally set
to " p.~", but it gets redefined to " P.~" for the second term in the
index ("baz").
Here i'm using a counter and i check when it is 2, but i'd like to check
if the term is "baz" (and i don't know how to do that test).
If you use deeptextcommand instead of textcommand, the pageleft
parameter can't be redefined.
The following variation compiles, but it does not work, because pageleft
is always " p.~":
\definenumber[p]
\setnumber[p][1]
\def\PageLeft{ p.~}
\def\TextCommand#1{\getnumber[p]
#1\doif{\rawcountervalue[p]}{2}{\def\PageLeft{ P.~}}\incrementnumber[p]}
\setupindex[n=1,pageleft=\PageLeft,pageright=,deeptextcommand=\TextCommand]
\starttext
Foo\index{foo}.
\page
Bar\index{bar}.
\page
Baz\index{baz}.
\page
\placeindex
\stoptext
In my setup i must use deeptextcommand, and i want to set the pageleft
and pageright parameters to a different value for some particular terms
of the index.
Since the argument passed to deeptextcommand is not the text of the term
(it's actually an id used to retrieve a much longer text), i can
discriminate the terms by their id, but i can't setup pageleft and
pageright accordingly from the command specified by deeptextcommand.
On the other hand, textcommand would let me set pageleft and pageright,
but its argument is not pure text, and i don't know how to get the id
from it.
How can i solve this problem?
Thanks,
Massimiliano
