[NTG-context] Arabic protrosion
The attached patch adds Arabic coma, semicolon, full stop (used in Urdu)
and question mark to font-ext.lua for protrusion.
Now, combined with glyph expansion, I don't get any overfull boxes.
Regards,
Khaked

[NTG-context] Setting the Non-Printable Area
Hi @all, i like to include a logo on the top-right-edge on every page in my Document. The pagesize is A4, but our printer could not print into the first 5mm from the borders. Now the Logo get's cut on the top and on the right side while printing. I defined my layout like this: -8schnipp- \setuppapersize[A4][A4] \setuplayout[backspace=20mm, width=160mm, topspace=20mm, top=0mm, header=0mm, footer=0mm, height=250mm, grid=yes] -8schnapp- ... and placed the logo like this: -8schnipp- \definelogo [imko logo] [top] [rightedge] [command=\IMKOLogo,state=start] -8schnapp- So how can I define the non-printable area of my A4 paper, so the logo doesn't get cut. - Markus -- ---it's like this-- even samurai have teddy bears and even teddy bears get drunk ___ 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 ___

Don't use logos, they're outdated (and removed from MkIV), layers are
better.

Re: [NTG-context] Setting the Non-Printable Area
Ahh! Works nice, but now I have this logo just on the first site of my document.
How can I set this to be repeated on every page ... I structured my document
with environment - project - product - component and I've put the layersetup
into my environment file.

Hi, I uploaded a new beta. Last week(ends) fixes are merged in. There is also an experimental plain version (luatex-plain.tex which you can rename to luatex.tex if needed). That gives you a plain tex with stripped down context mkiv font support (only the minimal amount of lua files are loaded). Some more info (also about generating the related font database) can be found in in luatex-fonts.tex. Of course it's no replacement or context but it seems to work ok (we occasionally need plain tex for testing). It's also not related to the upcoming layered context (aka metatex).

[NTG-context] BachoTeX 2009: the final invitation!
Dear GUST and BachoTeX Friends! BachoTeX 2009 is mercilessly coming (http://gust.org.pl/bachotex/2009) :-) We were able to negotiate an extension of the deadline to give the final numbers of the participants with the net effect to have the (well, not so) early-bird-registrations date to become now April 13th, Easter Monday, until midnight. From the conference page the following links are available: -- payments info (behind the Fees link), -- the registration form, -- the current list of presentations (there are some abstracts translations missing; work is under way), -- the schedule framework (behind Schedule). Please note the following interesting events: -- typography counseling (typographers present at the conference will look at your works and will give invaluable advice -- please use the chance!), -- the already traditional TeX Clinic (http://gust.org.pl/projects/klinika), -- the opportunity to present your small works or samples at poster session stands; time will be allocated to discuss them informally with other attendees, -- BoF sessions on topics which surely will emerge during the conference, -- a series of panel discussions: * TeX: Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, Threats (i.e., SWOT analysis), * TeX: at a turning point, or at the crossroads?, * TeX distributions, -- the 2009 TeX Pearls session (http://www.gust.org.pl/projects/pearls), -- and, of course, singing and having some merry time at the bonfires or inside the huts. I also remind GUST members of the 2009 GUST Annual General meeting (April 30th, Thursday, http://www.gust.org.pl/bachotex/2009/agm.html). Please come, bring your families with you, and enjoy the perhaps last chance to experience BachoTeX at Bachotek, as the Nicolas Copernicus University seems to be trying to sell the place, as today's (April 6th, 2009) local papers have it in their headlines :-( Waiting for you!

Now, combined with glyph expansion, I don't get any overfull boxes. Arabic-script microtypography is one of the cornerstones of the Oriental TeX project. We've been studying this matter for some time now: Because of a) the normal wide spacing around Arabic punctuation, and b) the large size of Arabic punctuation relative to Latin, I'm not sure that protrusion of Arabic-script punctuation is a good idea. It needs a lot of thought, and a lot of testing, before adding it to the system. Indeed, more testing is needed, but since neither protrusion nor expansion is on by default, I think it is safe to have them now so we can do more testing and tune it later, when someone enables hz features, he should no enough to judge himself about the quality of the result and he can always turn it back off and will lose nothing. As for glyph expansion, I don't see how that works at all with the current model, except perhaps with very horizontal fonts. But in that case all that's needed is smart tatweel, not glyph expansion. For hq fonts the current glyph expansion model will mess up the contextual connections. I think the minimal font expansion, that we have, is very unlikely to be noticed by the reader, but I completely agree that great care should be taken, I've been reading some Arabic book few months ago and I'm pretty sure they used the font expansion feature of InDesign because it was very visible and annoying. Although one can certainly do things with the current model of protrusion and hz, we need more, much more.

the \begingroup command while searching through the wiki, but I was
unable to determine what it does and it doesn't seem to do what I
need. I also tried to setup a buffer, but that didn't ensure that the
table and figure were displayed sequentially. Is there a way to do
this while keeping both references intact? Thanks.
\starttext
\input knuth
\placefigure

\startfloatcombination[2*1]
\placefigure{A dutch cow}{\externalfigure[cow]}
\placetable {Cow data}{\starttable[|l|l|]\NC Age \NC Weight \NC\AR 1 \NC
100 \NC\AR\stoptable}
\stopfloatcombination}

Some more info (also about generating the related font database) can be found in in luatex-fonts.tex. I wanted to try the font support together with latex but I have problems to run mtxrun to build the font database. I'm not using the minimals or texlive but miktex. To use luatex I have made a small texmf tree and a texmf.cnf which includes my miktex texmf-trees. This works fine with normal files like tfm, sty etc. But my system seems not to find lua-files: mtxrun loads mtx-fonts.lua (which is in the same folder) but stops then and claims file not found. Could you tell me which environment variable or texmf.cnf or whatever setting luatex/mtxrun use to track down lua-files? Does your texmf.cnf set LUAINPUTS? If not, setting it to $TEXMF/scripts/context/lua might help.

Re: [NTG-context] How to get the number of lines of a paragraph?
Wolfgang Schuster 写道:
Am 06.04.2009 um 17:17 schrieb Wei-Wei Guo:
Dear all,
I need to draw underlines under a paragraph. The number of underlines is
determined by the number of lines of the paragraph. For example:
\definetextbackground
[underline]
[location=text,
alternative=1,
background=,
frame=off]
\starttext
\startunderline
\input knuth
\stopunderline
\stoptext
It is not what I want. First, the underline is too close to the text. I need
to be able to manipulate the distance between the underline and the text.
Second, the underline of the last line has the same length with the last
line of the text. The underlines should be all the same length.
Another question: How can I set the header of the pages of contents?
\setupheadtext[language][content=...]
or
\title{...}
\placecontent
I don't mean the head of contents. I mean the header of the page, which is
the opposite concept to footer. It seems the head of the contents is not
treated as chapter. I tried \getmarking, but it doesn't work.
Best wishes,
Wei-Wei

Hi,
May be this can help you.

\iftracepositions show_multi_pars \else draw_multi_pars \fi ;

You can control the distances by setting up the params of
currentpicture shifted and linespace.

Re: [NTG-context] How to get the number of lines of a paragraph?
It works, thanks!
Can \startunderline be put into a table or a tabulate? I want to implement
thing like this:
\startbuffer[chinesetitle]
\startunderline
基于成本的钉耙强度与应用——东方视角分析
\stopunderline
\stopbuffer
\startbuffer[englishtitle]
\startunderline
Cost Based Rake Strength and Application: An Oriental View
\stopunderline
\stopbuffer
\starttabulate[|l|l|]
\NC 中文论文题目： \NC \getbuffer[chinesetitle] \NC \NR
\NC 英文论文题目： \NC \getbuffer[englishtitle] \NC \NR
\stoptabulate
Of cause, the codes do not work. Is there any alternative way?
Best wishes,
Wei-Wei
