Yes they are the same problem. I replaced luatex.dll with of the latest version (.51) with the previous one (.50) and the problem disappeared, though the problem still exists for pdftex.dll. It seems that something is wrong with compilation of luatex and pdftex on windows.

[NTG-context] Including lua files
Dear Lua Gurus, what's the preferred way of including files in Lua? When trying my module on a different machine I noticed that it fails because Lua's dofile() does not extend to files in the texmf tree. Thus I attempted to include the file with context.ctxlualoadfile() but it doesn't work either.

[NTG-context] simplefonts
Aditya Mahajan:
Have you read the chapter on typography in the new manual
http://context.aanhet.net/svn/contextman/context-reference/en/co-typography.pdf
Yes. Several times. And I took notes.

Hans Hagen:
1. What the first two arguments do.
the mode=base|node determines if we use traditional tex mechanisms
(base) or let mkiv do all work itself (node)
2. What keys and values are available for the third, and what they mean.
Thank you, but by the first two arguments, I mean 1 and 2 of:
\definefontfeature [1][2][3]. For example, in
\definefontfeature[smallcaps][smallcaps][script=latn]
I don't know what [smallcaps][smallcaps] is doing.
3. Once I have composed a \definefontfeature command, how do I use it
in the text.
not in the text, only when defining fonts; although you can enable and
disable features in the running text (dynamicly) .. from the source:
% \startbuffer
% \definefontfeature[smallcaps][smallcaps][script=latn]
% \definefontfeature[oldstyle] [oldstyle] [script=latn]
%
% \definedfont[name:cambria at 15pt]
%
% Hello there {\setff{smallcaps}capped 123 \setff{oldstyle}123!}\blank
% Hello there {\addff{smallcaps}capped 123 \addff{oldstyle}123!}\blank
% Hello there {\addff{smallcaps}capped \subff{smallcaps}normal} \blank
% \stopbuffer
%
% \typebuffer \getbuffer
Naturally, I don't know what any of this code means (which is why I seek
a human language explanation), but I'm guessing that in
\definefontfeature[oldstyle] [oldstyle] [script=latn]
the first [oldstyle] creates a command or variable called oldstyle,
the second [oldstyle] relates this to something else (another command or
variable, maybe a font file) which is also called oldstyle, and
the key-value pair [script=latn]qualifies this, selecting the only the Latin
part of the second [oldstyle]. (And, by the way, my font has Greek and
Cyrillic as well---why disable oldstyle in them?) I think that leaves me with
a command or variable or something called oldstyle, which I could include
in the text. My first guess would have been that it's \oldstyle, but, later
in your code snippet, I see \setff{smallcaps} and \addff{smallcaps}.
There's no telling what the difference is. So, I'm left guessing that
\definefontfeature[oldstyle] [oldstyle] [script=latn]
creates a possible argument for \setff{} and \addff{}, whatever they are.
They might be the commands for font switching in the text.
Since the code snippet isn't a human explanation, however, I can't tell---
I can only make wild guesses.
4. For example, I gathered that I needed a [default] [default]
[...onum=yes...] to get oldstyle numerals by default, but what if I
want to use some lining numerals here and there?
\definefontfeature [lining] [lining] [...onum=no...]
{\lining 123}
doesn't do it.
lnum=yes
I tried this, and
\definefontfeature [lining] [lining] [lnum=yes]
{\lining 123}
still gives me undefined control sequence on \lining.
I also tried {\switchtobodyfont [lining] 123},
which had no effect.
5. How I could use the superior and inferior shapes in my font---like
for the footnotemarks, for example?
hm, with sups=yes,subs=yes i guess but better use \high{..} and \low{..}
as often such font features are rather limited and depend on the font
I'll have to try that out (since I know which fonts have them), but:
\definefontfeature [?] [?] [sups=yes,subs=yes] ?

Thomas A. Schmitz:
This is not to disparage Wolfgang's great simplefonts module, but I learnt
setting up fonts the old-fashioned way (with typescripts),
so I will give a few explanations about this approach. Most of what you want
can be achieved easily. I have Garamond Premier myself, and this is how I set
it up:
Thank you, this is very encouraging. I used to do this with otftotfm and .fd
files, so it's not totally alien to me. I just need to grasp the syntax of the
Context commands. I've been pouring over your example. There are a
few points I still don't understand.
...
Next step: we set up the normal and smallcaps font:
\starttypescript [serif] [garamondprem]
\definefontsynonym [Garamond-Roman] [name:garamondpremierpro]
[features=myroman]
\definefontsynonym [Garamond-Bold] [name:garamondpremierprobold]
[features=myroman]
\definefontsynonym [Garamond-Italic] [name:garamondpremierproitalic]
[features=myroman]
\definefontsynonym [Garamond-Bold-Italic]
[name:garamondpremierprobolditalicc] [features=myroman]
\definefontsynonym [Garamond-SmallCaps] [name:garamondpremierpro]
[features=mysmcp]
\stoptypescript
\starttypescript [serif] [garamondprem]
\definefontsynonym [Serif] [Garamond-Roman] [features=myroman]
\definefontsynonym [SerifItalic] [Garamond-Italic] [features=myroman]
\definefontsynonym [SerifBold] [Garamond-Bold] [features=myroman]
\definefontsynonym [SerifBoldItalic]

I don't know what [smallcaps][smallcaps] is doing.
Let's start with the normal version
\definefontfeature[default][liga=yes,kern=yes,tlig=yes,trep=yes]
creates a list with the name 'default' (predefined by context and used
by default
for all fonts if not specified otherwise) with the opentype features
liga (ligature),
kern (kerning) and the pseudo tex features tlig (-- - –, --- - —) and
trep (' - ’).
This feature is now applied to font in a typescript (ConTeXt system map
font files
to commands, e.g. when you write \bf in your document your get Times New
Roman Bold).
In the extended version with three arguments you copy the list from the
second
argument to the new list which name is given in the first argument and
you can
add new opentype features to the list, e.g.
\definefontfeature[mine][default][onum=yes]
creates the new list mine which inherits all features from default and
adds onum
to the list, when the name in the first and second arguments are equal
you extend
a already created list with additional features.

Values are passed from to to Lua as string and the size is a number,
what i do is to ask for the font only and loop where i check the size of
the font.
\dorecurse
{\dolookupnoffound}
{\dolookupgetkeyofindex{designsize}{\recurselevel}} % minsize, maxsize
Fonts use a different system for the size a value of 100 stands for
10pt, 120 for 12pt etc.
You should be also know that fonts are not perfect and in *many* cases
fonts without optical size use '0' as value for the size.

Yes but a few fonts in snow leopard have problems.

[NTG-context] colored column
Hallo,
can someone explain how to write a table column in color, please?
The following example worked in 2006 but is not working anymore:
\starttext
\starttable[o1|\{C{red}|]
\VL red \VL\SR
\stoptable
\stoptext
Wolfgang Schuster posted last year the following example:
\NewFormatKey W#1%
{\ReadFormatKeys b{\localstartcolor[#1]\{} a{\}\localstopcolor}}
\starttable[o1|W{red}c|]
\VL red \VL\SR
\stoptable
But this results in printing '{red}' in red, not 'red'!
And this variant paints the following vertical line in red too:
\NewFormatKey W#1%
{\ReadFormatKeys b{\localstartcolor[#1]} a{\localstopcolor}}
\starttable[o1|W{red}c|]
\VL red \VL\SR
\stoptable
So, how can I do the job?

Re: [NTG-context] simplefonts
On Mar 13, 2010, at 5:09 PM, Michael Saunders wrote: I don't understand the syntax of \starttypescript. It doesn't appear in the manual. It occurs twice in the typography document. In both cases the first argument appears to be the name of the typescript. In one example, there is only one argument, and in the other example, the second argument appears to be a list of encodings. Since everything is now utf-8, I guess that could be forgotten. So, in your example here, I take serif to be the name of both typsecripts, but I don't know what [garamondprem] is doing. We're talking about mkiv here, so we don't need to worry about encodings (which is a confusing topic - utf8 is not a font encoding, but an input encoding; these two are not identical). A typescript file can contain a series of typeface definitions, e.g., one for serif, one for sans, one for mono, one for math, etc. hence the syntax \starttypescript [typeface] [identifier] It's never spelled out, but from looking at examples of \definefontsynonym [1][2] in the docs, I think it means something like what we used to call 2 we can now call 1, i.e., telling the machine to replace instances of 1 with 2. If this is the case, your third arguments above just seem to apply your features to the fonts referred to, which makes sense. I don't see, though, why this has to be done twice, and with an extra layer of misdirection. E.g., instead of: \definefontsynonym [Garamond-Roman] [name:garamondpremierpro] [features=myroman] \definefontsynonym [Serif] [Garamond-Roman] [features=myroman] why not just: \definefontsynonym [Serif] [name:garamondpremierpro] [features=myroman]? I think the purpose of the above step is to connect identifiers like Serif to a qualified font file. You could indeed write typescripts without the extra layer of abstraction. It just may make it easier if you want to mix different fonts etc. Finally, define your first typeface: \starttypescript [GaramondPrem] \definetypeface [GaramondPrem] [rm] [serif] [garamondprem] [default] \stoptypescript I think this is a typescript called GaramondPrem that contains a typeface called GaramondPrem. It seems a little redundant that they have the same name. You can use two different names, if you prefer. I know that the typescripts are referred to by \usetypescript, but I don't know where typefaces are referred to, so maybe it's just a dummy argument. In the \usebodyfont or \switchtobodyfont commands. The [rm] seems to be what links this to the font switching command, and the [garamondprem] obviously refers to both the typescripts you defined above. I don't understand what the [serif] is doing. In the typography manual, Hans says, The third and fourth arguments to \definetypeface are pointers to already declared font sets; these are defined elsewhere. I think by font set he must mean a typescript like garamondprem, but I don't know where the font set (typescript?) serif As I said: there's at least serif, sans, mono, math is or why two font sets need to be pointed to. ??? The same typography document goes on to explain the fifth argument: The fifth argument to \definetypeface specifies specific font size setups (if any), these will be covered in section ?? in the next chapter. This is getting scary, but I'm hoping putting [optical] there will solve everything. I don't follow. Next step: defining a typeface with superior numbers for footnote references etc.: \starttypescript [serif] [garamondpremupper] \definefontsynonym [GaramondPremUpper-Roman] [name:agaramondproregular] [features=mysup] \stoptypescript \starttypescript [serif] [garamondpremupper] \definefontsynonym [Serif] [GaramondPremUpper-Roman] [features=mysup] \definefontsynonym [SerifItalic] [Serif] \definefontsynonym [SerifBold] [Serif] \definefontsynonym [SerifBoldItalic] [Serif] \definefontsynonym [SerifCaps] [Serif] \stoptypescript I think I follow you, up to the line: \definefontsynonym [SerifItalic] [Serif]. These last lines seem to say that if you're in bold or italic, that you should still use regular superior figures, but the font has its own bold and italic superiors. I think that's true of all the weight/shape/design size variations in the set. It depends what you want to achieve. I map everything onto Serif because I do not want the superior numbers to be bold or italic, even in an italic environment. Of course, you can define something for all these variants. \starttypescript [GaramondPremUpper] \definetypeface [GaramondPremUpper] [rm] [serif] [garamondpremupper] [default] \stoptypescript I'm confused about how [GaramondPremUpper] and [garamondpremupper] seem to be getting associated with [rm] and [serif] after they were already associated with [GaramondPrem] and [garamondprem]. I don't see how, when I now use \rm, the
