[NTG-context] urgent bottom line problem (thin paper)
Hi,
before getting the train to Praha there is an urgent last problem to be solved:
The bottom line of body text and footnote text need to be absolutely at the
same height (due to a very thin paper used)!
I tried to fine-tune the height of layout by 1pt up-and-down, but the
difference stays: at least 1mm.
Is there a ...skip that's needs to be adjusted?
(using grid mode is a no-go!)
Help please!!

[NTG-context] install beta

Re: [NTG-context] (Xe)ConTeXt and CJK support
Thank you all for your detailed answers. Wolfgang's suggestion does
not produce any errors and seems like the perfect solution except that
I have trouble loading any of my installed CJK fonts. I have tried to
play with \definefontsynonym for ConTeXt to find the font files. I
have
- OpenType fonts IPAMincho and IPAGothic as ipam.ttf and ipag.ttf
- TrueType font KanjiStrokeOrders as KanjiStrokeOrders_v2.014.ttf
- a bunch of *.tfm, *.vf, and *.pfb files for a font family called
Wadalab, of which half of them seem to be only suited for JIS
encoding, whilst the other half is suited for Unicode.
I hope you don't find it too basic a question, but the font system is
not very transparent and I'd be most grateful if someone could outline
how I would write the preamble in order to set up the CJK in a way I
can use them for the \setcjkfont commands and (as an exercise)
redefine the Latin font to Palatino.
I envision something like
\usemodule[simplefonts]
\definefontsynonym[Palatino][uplr8t]
\setupbodyfont[Palatino,11pt] % See 1.
\definefontsynonym[WadalabMincho][???] % See 2.
\setcjkmainfont[WadalabMincho]
\setcjksansfont[IPAGothic] % See 3.
\setcjkmonofont[KanjiStrokeOrders] % See 4.
\starttext
Hello! 今日は!
\stoptext
1. Calling upon the name like this doesn't change anything.
2. How do I know which *.tfm/*.vf/*.pfb file to call here? I think the
*.pfb files are Type1 for JIS encoding and thus are not of interest,
but there are still about 30 *.tmf files for Unicode to choose from.
3. I have an OpenType font with this font name, but again, calling it
like this does not work. I have tried to
$ export OSFONTDIR=/path/to/font/directory
and then
$ mtxrun --script fonts --reload
$ context --generate
The files are recognized by mtxrun, but, again, the font names don't
enable simplefonts to load them correctly.
4. This somehow seems to work. This is the font name (at least it's
not the filename) and the font is TrueType. However, trying to load a
different font here, like Sazanami Mincho, does *not* work, although
it, too, should not go unnoticed during compilation. Could this be
because of the space in the font name?
I'm grateful for any sort of answer.
Again, many thanks.

Dear ConTeXt users,
I am trying to write a document (grammar notes) in English and Japanese
and so far have used XeTeX (for Unicode support) with tikZ (for
graphics) quite successfully. However, I wish to convert to (Xe)ConTeXt
in order to have more control over the page design.
At the moment I am stuck at trying to define English and Japanese fonts.
In XeTeX I used
\usepackage[BoldFont]{xeCJK}
\setCJKmainfont{IPAMincho}
\setCJKsansfont{IPAGothic}
\setCJKmonofont{KanjiStrokeOrders}
in order to set the three different Japanese fonts I am using.
I haven't found any documentation on how to implement something
equivalent in ConTeXt and would be most grateful if someone could
outline how I would best go about converting my XeTeX document to ConTeXt.
With MkIV you can set different fonts for Japanese with the fontfallback
mechanism, there is not documentation about it but you can on the net
a few examples how to use it:
-
http://liyanrui.is-programmer.com/2009/10/21/not-just-for-chinese.12264.html
- http://liyanrui.is-programmer.com/posts/5737.html
-
http://blogs.gnome.org/happyaron/2009/11/02/font-fallback-in-context-mininals/
The simplefonts modules provides a fontspec inspired interface to use
the mechanism in a simpler way:
\usemodule[simplefonts]
\setcjkmainfont[IPAMincho]
\setcjksansfont[IPAGothic]
\setcjkmonofont[KanjiStrokeOrders]
\starttext
...

Hello! 今日は!

For a Palantino font you can use “TeX Gyre Pagella”, to use it as roman
font you have to load it with \setmainfont.
\usemodule[simplefonts]
\setmainfont[TeX Gyre Pagella]
\setcjkmainfont[IPAMincho]
\setcjksansfont[IPAGothic]
\setcjkmonofont[KanjiStrokeOrders]
\starttext
text 本 {\ss text 本} {\tt text 本}
\stoptext
Loading the Sazanami fonts isn’t a problem for me, the following code
use them in the output instead of the IPA fonts.
\usemodule[simplefonts]
\setmainfont[TeX Gyre Pagella]
\setcjkmainfont[Sazanami Mincho]
\setcjksansfont[Sazanami Gothic]
\setcjkmonofont[KanjiStrokeOrders]
\starttext
text 本 {\ss text 本} {\tt text 本}
\stoptext
but you can try “Sazanami Mincho Regular” because this is the real name
of the fonts.
