If you want to use this font with mkii, you'll need much more than just a typescript, at the least tfms + encodings + mapfiles. That's the reason why luatex so much more convenient. Also depends on how you want to use the font: which parts are you interested in, Greek, Latin, ? Hi Thomas, thanks for the reply. I was just a bit afraid to compile my document with --luatex. But I tried and it seems my nasty code and tricks are just showing fine :) So, lets go for mkiv. I just need the latin part, in fact. And I've seen that there is a good example on the wiki of a typescript for luatex.

Re: [NTG-context] Questions about tables
2009/1/22 Cecil Westerhof cldwester...@gmail.com: There are two problems with it: - The horizontal line at the top disappears because of the color. Is there a way to get it back? That is only on screen. When printed, it is there. - The table is on the right side of the paper. How can I get it centered on the page? With a lot of experimenting, I am a lot further further. See the atached file. Also is it possible to let the rows fill the complete page? I mean: if there is room for 40 rows, that there are automatically 40 rows. There is even room for 43 rows. I do need to place them all by hand? I tried \dorecurse, but that did not work. Especially when the highlight is changed (now every five rows) this would be a lot of work. It is a little strange. The second page is reasonably placed. But the first page not. Why is the layout of the first page different? Tips to get the tables better in the middle and use more of the available space are welcome. I have a strange problem. When printing the first page, or the second page, there is no problem. Put when I try to print the complete document. The printer is busy a long time. At a certain point the printer is 'ready', but does not have printed the document. Anybody knows what could be happening? I am working with openSUSE and a HP Color LaserJet 1600. I also tried to make the document singlesided. But when I then placed two tables, they got on different pages instead of beside eachother.

Re: [NTG-context] Merging background
2009/1/22 Peter Münster pmli...@free.fr:
But I was wondering if it could be generalized. I was thinking about
the following. A variable backgroundList is defined and in every
template where layers are defined, those layers are added to
backgroundList. And then the following statement is used:
\setupbackgrounds[page][backgroun...@backgroundlist]
Is something like this possible?
Perhaps you're looking for something like this:
http://archive.contextgarden.net/message/20060115.080349.8efe83be.en.html
That means: a template adds a background.
Works like a charm. In t-defaults.tex I have:
\setupbackgrounds[page][state=start]
In t-watermark.tex I have:
\expandparameters
\setupbackgrounds[page][background={\currentvalue,WatermarkOverlay}]
In t-privebrief.tex I have:
\expandparameters
\setupbackgrounds[page][background={\currentvalue,myAddr}]
And in my document I have:
\usemodule[defaults]
\usemodule[watermark]
\usemodule[privebrief]
And both backgrounds are displayed.

I assume that (a) TeX Live 2008 with its tlmgr utility, or (b) ConTeXt minimals, are the two realistic possibilities - is this correct? What I'd like: - A clear way of keeping ConTeXt mkiv usable and up to date with Hans's latest version - An installation method that will continue to be maintained, and that is expected to be used by the majority of ordinary users of ConTeXt in the future ...So should I go for TeX Live, or the minimals, or something else I don't know about yet? I would suggest MacTeX 2008 + minimals. I have both, with manually slightly updated ConTeXt in MacTeX 2008. MacTeX is nice since it always works (includes LaTeX and dozens of fonts and other packages that might be missing in minimals) and you have a backup system in case that the latest alpha in minimals gets broken. I have this in ~/.bash_profile: #. context/tex/setuptex context/tex and I keep commenting/uncommenting it as needed (or just execute that line in bash). The nice thing about minimals is that it doesn't interfere with other TeX distributions, so you can have it installed in parallel and it doesn't take too much space when compared with TeX Live. You need some additional hacks to get the minimals working in gui applications. Oliver started writing an installer that could simplify matters a bit, but got stuck with some external bugs at some point and didn't publically release anything yet.

Hi Cecil, You could use \showframe before starttext, then you will see the relations of the areas. Here I do not see that the placement of the table is incorrect. I tried to use \doerecurse with the table-environment and I also did not get a result. A possibility is to use another table environment: \bTABLE \bTR \bTD ... \eTD \eTR \eTABLE This environment has more possibilities than \starttable. Herein \dorecurse does work. Moreover support for colouring is more advanced. Look for details in the enattab.pdf I suggest you to use buffers for the content that the loops typeset.

At a certain point the printer is 'ready', but does not have printed the document. Anybody knows what could be happening? I am working with openSUSE and a HP Color LaserJet 1600. I also tried to make the document singlesided. But when I then placed two tables, they got on different pages instead of beside eachother. How would I place two tables beside eachother on singlesided paper? -- Cecil Westerhoffuel.tex___ If your question is of interest to others as well, please add an entry to the Wiki! maillist : ntg-context@ntg.nl / http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ ntg-context webpage : http://www.pragma-ade.nl / http://tex.aanhet.net archive : https://foundry.supelec.fr/projects/contextrev/ wiki : http://contextgarden.net __ _ ___ If your question is of interest to others as well, please add an entry to the Wiki! maillist : ntg-context@ntg.nl / http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context webpage : http://www.pragma-ade.nl / http://tex.aanhet.net archive : https://foundry.supelec.fr/projects/contextrev/ wiki : http://contextgarden.net ___

I have the following table:

There are two problems with it:
- The horizontal line at the top disappears because of the color. Is
there a way to get it back?
- The table is on the right side of the paper. How can I get it
centered on the page?
Also is it possible to let the rows fill the complete page? I mean: if
there is room for 40 rows, that there are automatically 40 rows.
Cecil,
Here's a stab. It uses a macro that Wolfgang wrote on getting the line count
to automatically populate the page. However, there's one caveat, I could not
start the table at the beginning of the page, I had to put a .\par in first.
Other than that, it works.

Thanks.
How do you substract/add a number from/to \noflines ?
I tried
\thinrules[n=\advance\the\noflines by -2]
\thinrules[n=\advance\noflines by -2]
\thinrules[n={\advance\the\noflines by -2}]
\thinrules[n={\advance\noflines by -2}]
\thinrules[n=\number\numexpr\noflines-2\relax]
And how do you make a division of \number\numexpr\noflines-2, for ex. by 2 ?

[NTG-context] lua questions
Hi all, this is a bit OT and should probably go to a lua list, but since some people here are very proficient in lua and I feel less embarrassed about noob questions here... I have a half-functioning python script to convert entries from a classics database into the bibtex format. I want to rewrite it in lua and make it more functional. Three little problems/questions: 1. I found a script to convert Roman numerals via lpeg here: http://lua-users.org/wiki/LpegRecipes but it uses the syntax lpeg.Ca which my lpeg doesn't recognize and which I can't find in the lpeg manual. According to a talk by Roberto Ierusalimschy, lpeg.Ca(patt) - accumulates the nested captures. (http://www.inf.puc-rio.br/~roberto/lpeg/slides-lpeg-workshop2008.pdf ) Is this obsolete, has it been replaced by anything? 2. How can I check if a string begins with a class of words (Der |Die |Das |The |An ) etc. and strip these words from the string? I do it with a compiled regexp in python, but Programming in lua has this to say: Unlike some other systems, in Lua a modifier can only be applied to a character class; there is no way to group patterns under a modifier. For instance, there is no pattern that matches an optional word (unless the word has only one letter). Usually you can circumvent this limitation using some of the advanced techniques that we will see later. I haven't found these techniques yet. 3. How can I compare strings with utf8 characters? My naive approach if string.find(record, Résumé) doesn't appear to work (while the same method does work if the string has only ASCII characters). Sorry if this is OT, and I'll be grateful for any pointers.
