Re: [NTG-context] Install mess (Type3 Fonts)
Your installation finds the latin modern fonts, but can't associate
them with the proper type1 fonts.

You probably should update pdfetex as well (current version is 1.30.6).

[NTG-context] Feature Request: mathmatrix enhancement
Hi,
Is it possible to have allow math matrix column alignments to be
configurable, on the lines of align={left,left} of \startalign.
I want to be albe to say
\startformula
\startmatrix[align={right,left}]
\NC x \NC = a + d \NR
\NC y \NC = d \NR
\stopmatrix
\stopformula
to give me
x = a + d
y = d
This is a contrived example. The actual equation that I want to type
is
\startformula
\text{Let }{\cal R} = \bigcup_{P_{X_1},P_{X_2}} \left\{
(R_1, R_2) :
\startmatrix[distance=0.1em]
\NC \hfill R_1 \NC < I(X_1 ; Y \mid X_2) \hfill \NR
\NC \hfill R_2 \NC < I(X_2 ; Y \mid X_1) \hfill \NR
\NC \hfill R_1 + R_2 \NC < I(X_1,X_2 ; Y) \hfill \NR
\stopmatrix\right\}
\stopformula
All these manual hfills look ugly.
Is matrix the wrong way to go about this? Should we rather have a
aligned environment like amsmath? Or is there a simple alternative
that I have overlooked?
Thanks
Aditya

[NTG-context] Install mess (Type3 Fonts)
I know, I shouldn't have updated the context distrib, but I did... Of
course, I add problems with missing fonts, and installed the lm fonts from
CTAN. Now texexec can compile again.
But the fonts used are now horrible, producing fuzzy letters. Can anyone
give me some hints to fix this buggy install?
If it can be of some help here is a log of a program I compiled.

That's not possible with \setuppagenumbering alone.
Try the Logo approach:
\setuppagenumbering[alternative=doublesided, location=]
\definelogo[Pagina][text][rightmargin][command={\framed
{\pagenumber}}, state=start]
or have a look at http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Letter_style and its
use of Layers and setups.

Indeed it is shorter and much more elegant. But in this case the test was automatically generated. Actually the code is different because the XML namespace does not seem correctly handled.

I have managed to make a local copy of SVN yesterday (strange I was not
successfull some week ago) and the answers are obvious now from both the
en and nl files.
* Manual ma-cb-en:
- print version is OK.
- screen version errors:
ma-cb-screen.tex, l.18: midle -> middle
ma-cb-style.tex, l.59,60: raster -> screen;
backroundraster -> backgroundscreen
There was some discussion about beginners manual (hopefully ConTeXt at
Excursion) translation into another languages in autumn. Does somebody
make some steps towards this goal?
How stable do you (Hans, ...) think is the English version of ConTeXt in
Excursion (ma-cb-en) now?

Add
way=bysection,sectionnumber=no
to \defineenumeration or to \setupenumeration.
(You can also reset the numbers manually with \resetquestion.)

you can also think of a mixture: content mathml for nicely structured
formulas and a simple tex mode for inline math:
\defineXMLargument[tm]{\XMLtexmath}
\def\XMLtexmath#1{\bgroup\setnormalcatcodes\scantokens{\mathematics{#1}\ignorespaces}\egroup}
\startbuffer[test]
Sometimes it makes sense to use simple math, as in: e=mc^2.
\stopbuffer
\processXMLbuffer[test]
(i will provide a 'calcmath' filter once luatex is there)

Hi Hans, Thank you for asking for the whole set of files. While looking for them I detected that the xml file was gone. Then a new set of files was prepared .

The implementation has changed, and apparently this definition has slipped our attention. You can use \resetnumber[question] instead. Btw, I think you were looking for \setupenumeration[question][way=bysection,sectionnumber=no] in that other message.

How do I activate my fonts via a typescript. you can use \setuptypescript[...], but best is to just use: \setupbodyfont[ifa] since the typescript mechanism is a layer on top of the more low level traditional-texie font mechanism so, you can have several typefaces alongside and switch between them; this is one of the reasons that typefaces exist: they enable you to construct combinations and use many of them in a document (mixed font families, math styles, etc) Hans 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 - ___ ntg-context mailing list ntg-context@ntg.nl http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context
