On Mon, 2 Aug 2010, Grant W. Petty wrote: On Mon, Aug 2, 2010 at 10:10 AM, Grant W. Petty wrote: I am trying out ConTeXt for the very first time, hoping to assess whether it's worth re-tooling from LaTeX for authoring scientific textbooks. To elaborate on this comment which I made in another thread, I have written and self-published two university-level atmospheric science textbooks in LaTeX which are doing quite well by the standards of my small field. I am now also contracting to publish textbooks for other authors. I am very interested in eventually reformatting my own existing books, as well as future books, as documents that can be both printed as professional-quality bound textbooks as well as distributed as e-books -- for example ePub format and/or XHTML. The principle technical hurdle seems to be posed by the heavy use of mathematical equations. I want the math in the electronic versions to be very clean and scalable (e.g., SVG; eventually MathML as e-readers do a better job of supporting it). While there are programs like TeX4HT and LaTeXML that convert LaTeX source to XML/MathML, they seem to have trouble with unfamiliar packages and macros, and the math rendering seems quite imperfect as well (though I can't yet tell whether that's a problem with the conversion to MathML or rather with current e-readers imperfect support for MathML). I think that it is better to test mathml on a recent web browser rather than ereaders. My question is whether anyone has insight into the relative strengths of LaTeX vs. ConTeXt as an authoring environment in the specific case that the author wants high-quality multi-format outputs for print and electronic distribution. An example workflow I could imagine would be ConTeXT or LaTeX source -> XML/MathML (DocBook?) -> PDF or XHTML with math encoded as MathML and/or SVG and/or PNG -> ePub with high-quality math readable on various commercial readers I'm quite new to this subject matter, having only begun to learn about e-publishing formats a couple of weeks ago, so I'll welcome any advice, however basic. Context/latex to xml will never work unless you are willing to restrict yourself to a subset of supported input syntax. If you are willing to do that, then a cleaner alternative to is to *input* all your text as XML. For plain text XML is not too verbose, but MathML is a pain to type by hand. There are various libraries that convert tex math markup to mathml that may ease the task. If the math is not too complicated, one option is to use asciimath. ConTeXt has some basic support for asciimath, and I believe that it is possible to convert asciimath to mathml. Another option is to explore Microsoft's linear math format. It has a well defined grammer, so in principle it will be much easier to convert it to latex/context/mathml input. The big advantage of using such a setup is that you can use the same source to display the document on web (or epub, which is essentially zipped xml files) and to generate pdf (context handles xml input very well).

I am now also contracting to publish textbooks for other authors. I am very interested in eventually reformatting my own existing books, as well as future books, as documents that can be both printed as professional-quality bound textbooks as well as distributed as e-books -- for example ePub format and/or XHTML. The principle technical hurdle seems to be posed by the heavy use of mathematical equations. I want the math in the electronic versions to be very clean and scalable (e.g., SVG; eventually MathML as e-readers do a better job of supporting it). While there are programs like TeX4HT and LaTeXML that convert LaTeX source to XML/MathML, they seem to have trouble with unfamiliar packages and macros, and the math rendering seems quite imperfect as well (though I can't yet tell whether that's a problem with the conversion to MathML or rather with current e-readers imperfect support for MathML). My question is whether anyone has insight into the relative strengths of LaTeX vs. ConTeXt as an authoring environment in the specific case that the author wants high-quality multi-format outputs for print and electronic distribution. An example workflow I could imagine would be ConTeXT or LaTeX source -> XML/MathML (DocBook?) -> PDF or XHTML with math encoded as MathML and/or SVG and/or PNG -> ePub with high-quality math readable on various commercial readers I'm quite new to this subject matter, having only begun to learn about e-publishing formats a couple of weeks ago, so I'll welcome any advice, however basic.

Re: [NTG-context] Errors with MacTeX/TeXLive installation

The culprit is that, as you have read, the LuaTeX binary (the program that is actually being run) doesn't match the version of the ConTeXt files. You have the choice between, either: 1. Replacing the LuaTeX program with a more recent version which you can download from http://www.luatex.org/download.html or 2. Installing the “Minimals” distribution (http://wiki.contextgarden.net/ConTeXt_Minimals). Option 1 may seem simpler, but you will need a few steps to get started, and it can have side effects on the rest of your TeX Live installation, which is why I'd recommend you install the Minimals.

[NTG-context] Errors with MacTeX/TeXLive installation
I am trying out ConTeXt for the very first time, hoping to assess whether it's worth re-tooling from LaTeX for authoring scientific textbooks. I am using a fresh installation of TeX Live 2009 (installed via MacTex on a MacBook running Mac OS X 10.6), and I'm trying to process a sample file I downloaded from one of the ConTeXt web pages. Unfortunately, the process generates a couple of cryptic warnings ("Lua binary way out of date") and a fatal error ("can't find ...dcc/formats/cont-en.luc"). I wonder if someone can examine the input file and the log file (both attached) to help me understand what I have to do to clean things up and, if possible, why the TeX Live ConTeXt configuration doesn't work correctly "right out of the box" to begin with.

Like \LaTeX\, \ConTeXt\ is applicable to most typesetting needs. Unlike \LaTeX\, \ConTeXt\ is monolithic, by which I mean it is designed, implemented, and distributed as a whole. Its completeness is evident in the breath of its concepts and consistency of its syntax. Forged in the crucible of the educational publishing world, \ConTeXt\ has grown to accommodate the most advanced and demanding typesetting needs. The practical upshot of this is that if you need a particular feature, it probably is already implemented. A few of its most noteworthy features include: \startitemize[packed,n] \item multiple language interfaces including: English, German, and Dutch \item a font naming scheme that allows you mix and match different typefaces \item a native XML parser \item a native XML-FO support \item native MathML support \item integrated graphics with \MetaPost \item full color support in both {\sc rgb} or {\sc cmyk} \item direct access to and control over the interactive capabilities of PDF \stopitemize I would not say that \ConTeXt\ has a steep learning curve but rather a long one. Thankfully, there is sufficient documentation, and a vibrant development community to offer support. Visit the Pragma website at \from[pragma] to learn more about \ConTeXt. There you will find both examples to whet your appetite and manuals to answer your questions. I recommend you start by reading the introductory `\ConTeXt\ an Excursion' and then move onto the full \ConTeXt\ manual. You will find additional examples of, discussions about, and documentation for \ConTeXt\ on the community wiki at: \from[contextgarden]. Finally, you can subscribe to the \ConTeXt\ mailing list at: \from[ntg-context]. Michael Guravage is a consultant who specializes in content management and document engineering.

[NTG-context] Pagebreak without background
I'm working on a document with page backgrounds. I got them working now, using ... ... \defineoverlay[left page] [\useMPgraphic{left page}] \defineoverlay[right page][\useMPgraphic{right page}] \setupbackgrounds[leftpage] [background=left page] \setupbackgrounds[rightpage][background=right page] But now I have them on every page. I don't want those to appear on certain pages. E.g. I want to start chapters on the right page and want the left page to be completely empty. For my chapters I currently have \definepagebreak[chapterpagebreak][yes,header,right] \setuphead[chapter][page=chapterpagebreak] Which still gives me the background on the blank left page before each new chapter. So I tried blank in definepagebreak, but it doesn't seem to give me the desired result, since it only removes the background on the page to follow (that is the right page on which my chapter starts). Anybody know how to do this? regards, Julian -- Julian Becker Institut für Angewandte Physik, R.123 Westfälische Wilhelms-Universität Münster Corrensstr. 2/4 48149 Münster / Westfalen Tel. 0251 83-3 61 53 Mob. 0151 599 848 29 e-mail: j_bec...@uni-muenster.de "Keep thy heart with all diligence; for it is the wellspring of life." ___ 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 : http://foundry.supelec.fr/projects/contextrev/ wiki : http://contextgarden.net ___
