Re: [NTG-context] is it useful to use the option "--fonts=all" when running first-setup-sh?
Tank you very much Pablo. I'll try that. They are proper latex fonts, tho, so I'm no sure that will do. I also have a background i humanities and book design, but I'm now making math books, go figure. It's very interesting from a typographic point of view. Now I'm more interested in seeing what happens with the last code I sent here, in another message... "Strange behavior in somewhat complex layout" Maybe nobody noticed it. I hope I can figure that out. ___ 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://context.aanhet.net archive : https://bitbucket.org/phg/context-mirror/commits/ wiki : http://contextgarden.net ___

[NTG-context] issue with italic correction (again)
Dear list,
[sorry for insisting, but I have the impression that the previous
version of this message went unnoticed.]
I have the following sample:
\def\DesiredFont{TeX Gyre Termes}
\definefontfeature[italic][itlc=yes,textitalics=yes]
\setupitaliccorrection[global, always]
\definefontfamily
[mainface]
[rm]
[\DesiredFont]
\definefontfamily
[mainface_corrected]
[rm]
[\DesiredFont]
[features={italic}]
\setupbodyfont[mainface]
\setupitaliccorrection[global,always]
\starttext
\startbuffer[chars]
\startTEXpage[offset=1em]
\dorecurse{26}
{\setupbodyfont[mainface]%
[{\em \recurselevel}]
[{\em \characters{\recurselevel}}]
[{\em \Characters{\recurselevel}}]
({\em \characters{\recurselevel}})
({\em \Characters{\recurselevel}})
\hfill
\setupbodyfont[mainface_corrected]
[{\em \recurselevel}]
[{\em \characters{\recurselevel}}]
[{\em \Characters{\recurselevel}}]
({\em \characters{\recurselevel}})
({\em \Characters{\recurselevel}})
\par}
\stopTEXpage
\stopbuffer
\getbuffer[chars]
\def\DesiredFont{TeX Gyre Pagella}
\getbuffer[chars]
\stoptext
This shows that sequences such as ({\em f}) are corrected with the
closing parenthesis, but not with the opening one.
Wouldn’t it be possible that italic correction could be enabled also
before the italic glyph(s)?
BTW, I wonder why the second definition of \DesiredFont doesn’t change
the font for the buffer used after it.
Many thanks for your help,
Pablo

Hi Andrés, I’m afraid that the consistency of message threads suffers with reply to digest messages (https://mailman.ntg.nl/pipermail/ntg-context/2019/thread.html). At least, consider editing the subject and removing the irrelevant parts from other messages, as suggested in: > When replying, please edit your Subject line so it is more specific > than "Re: Contents of ntg-context digest..." Don’t get me wrong, a message may get no reply because it goes unnoticed. Regarding Math Times Pro 2, I wonder whether "\definefontfamily[mainface][mm][Math Times Pro 2]" would allow partial usage. But my background is in humanities and math is all Greek to me .

"tolerant") [1] (2) then, there is a nearly related "cousin" who admittedly has a free "driver" but this one is only a cover which delegates the real work to a propriatary program in user space (3) eventually it is so that Broadcom BCM28xx (or BCM27xx) [2] isn't "only an ARM CPU" but contains a bunch of many different subsystems (in jargon a SoC, a "system on a Chip"). Everyone of these subsystems has possibly one, possibly several processors. Presumably the most prominent with the Raspi is the grafic-coprocessor (Videocore IV) which is responsible for booting the whole system too. Also these have code which might become evident as blobs which the linux kernel simply hands through. Consequently: without (3) Raspi wount boot ;-) As far as I know (Tomas, tuxteam.de) with concern to (1) and (2) Raspi to a large extend is "clean" (corrections are welcome!), though (3) is much more difficult (there are, as I think, people who are working on reverse engineering of it). Broadcom, after hesitating initially, seems to be friendly against those efforts. This all is with a bit of error margin, because I didn't look into it for a rather long time.

To this I asked my linux group in Freiburg and got following answer in German from Tomas (tuxteam.de): -- Die Antwort darauf ist komplizierter, als es einem lieb sein kann :-) "Blob" hat da nämlich unterschiedliche Bedeutungen (vermutlich lässt sich die Liste verlängern): (1) zum einen, nicht-freie Treiber, die direkt im Adressraum des Linux kernels ausgeführt werden (strenggenommen verletzen sie die GPL, aber die Linux-community ist da... "tolerant" [1] (2) dann ist die eng verwandte "Cousine", die im Kernel zwar einen freien "Treiber" hat, der aber nur eine Hülle ist, die die eigentliche Arbeit an ein Programm in user space delegiert, das proprietär ist (3) schliesslich ist es so, dass der Broadcom BCM28xx (oder BCM27xx) [2] nicht "nur eine ARM CPU" ist, sondern ganz viele verschiedene Subsysteme umfasst (im Jargon ist das ein SoC, ein "System on a Chip"). Jedes dieser Subsysteme hat vielleicht einen, vielleicht mehrere Prozessoren, am prominentesten beim Raspi ist wohl der Grafik-Coprozessor (VideoCore IV), der auch zum Booten des ganzen Systems zuständig ist. Auch die wollen Code, der auch als Blobs in Erscheinung treten kann, die der Linux-Kernel einfach nur durchreicht. Also: ohne (3) gibt es beim Raspi nicht mal Booten ;-) Meines Wissens ist Raspi in (1) und (2) weitgehend "sauber" (Korrekturen erwünscht!), (3) ist allerdings weitaus schwieriger (es gibt m.W. aber auch Leute, die an dessen reverse engineering dran sind).
