[NTG-context] Re: Setuphead issue!
Hi,
The example below works as expected, but within my product it doesn't.
% Subject example before and after!
\setuphead[subject][color=limegreen,before={\blank[none]},after={\blank[none]},align={flushleft,nothyphenated,tolerant}]
\starttext
A paragraph before calling the subject.
\subject{\sc The subject}
A paragrapf after the subject was called.
\stoptext
I use the \subject command within a columnset, could that be the problem?

[NTG-context] Setuphead issue!
Hi, I'm a bit puzzled by the mkiv /setuphead/ command of ConTeXt!

Now I'd like to have _no vertical space_ before and after the header. I've tried just that by setting either *before=* and *after=* and *before=\blank[none]* and *after=\blank[none]*.

Re: [NTG-context] Lettrine module not working?!
Hi,
Yes Hraban it works outside in normal text flow. When I do e.g.
*{\InitialCapFont test in normal text flow}* the text '/test in normal
text flow/' is rendered correctly in the Antykwa-Poltawskiego font.
Found out that the following does work with the *\placeinitial* command:
*\setupinitial[color=MyColor,distance=6pt,n=3,font=name:antpoltcondregular*default
sa 4]*
So something weird is happening I suppose!

[NTG-context] Bad page breaks!
Dear ConTeXt-users, I'm trying to typeset a small book using ConTeXt (TeXLive 2004), and use the following setup: \setupbodyfont[rm,12pt] \definepapersize[BOOK][width=140mm,height=210mm] \setuppapersize[BOOK][A4] \setuplayout[ [topspace=24mm, header=8mm, headerdistance=10mm, backspace=19.5mm, leftmargin=15.5mm, rightmargin=23mm, footerdistance=5mm, footer=4mm, height=fit, width=fit, marking=on, location=middle] Page breaks are usually calculated automatically by TeX, but I notice that in my case they turn out to be very bad. A lot of pages are involved, so I wonder how this can be improved? Sometimes even 3 lines could be added without any difficulty to a page by TeX before inserting a page break! I've tried to use \adaptlayout but it doesn't seem to work, no effect! Has it perhaps something to do with the setup I use? Regards, Geert -- Geert C.H.M.

(we now have pdftex 1.20) - remove the debian tex - install tetex (3 beta) - if needed update context or - fetch the minimal context linux tree from our website (run setuptex in the root of it to enable that tree) I'm afraid that I don't understand this! I'm not using Debian TeX, but installed TeXLive Ed.9 (2003) on my Debian (3.0r) based Linux box. Am I right in saying that an installation of ConTeXt from TeXLive is incomplete? Do I really have to fetch the latest ConTeXt from PRAGMA ADE to get those fonts working? Do I perhaps have to configure ConTeXt more before being able to use those fonts? Well fetching large files from Internet is very time consuming when using a simple modem, which I do, with an average speed of around 4Kbytes/sec! So this isn't really an option. Isn't it possible to create the missing tfm files, which ConTeXt uses, from the fonts already present in /usr/TeX/texmf/fonts? What if I install TeXLive 2004? Regards, Geert -- Geert C.H.M.

Hans,
I've decided to send you the complete file (test.log)! You'll find it
attached!
I used the command: texexec --pdf test to produce it. By the way I'm
running Debian 3.0r Linux!

[NTG-context] Fonts in ConTeXt!
Beste ConTeXt gebruikers, Ik worstel al enige tijd met fonts in ConTeXt, en moet tot de conclusie komen dat ik er niets van begrijp, sorry! Heb ook geprobeerd diverse handleidingen m.b.t. fonts, zoals `Fonts in ConTeXt' door te spitten, maar ben hierin eveneens hopeloos vast gelopen. Afm-, tfm- en mapfiles voor mij ondoorgrondelijk! Ben er nog nooit in geslaagd een ander font te gebruiken dan het standaard font! Ik pas momenteel TeXLive 2003 toe. Is er iemand die op een simpele manier kan aangeven hoe ik dat werkend kan krijgen, zonder direct in jargon te vervallen? Ik krijg het Palatino font zoals bijvoorbeeld beschreven op pag. 91 van MAPS (najaar 2004) domweg niet werkend. Het boekje met al die mooie font voorbeelden is erg fraai, maar mij is het nog nooit gelukt een letter hiervan te produceren! En dit alles moet toch met de standaard TeXLive distributie makkelijk kunnen, zo begrijp ik. Ik ben onder de indruk van de kwaliteit van TeX, en dat is precies de reden waarom ik het gebruik! Maar dat gedoe met fonts maakt mij radeloos! Mijn laatste hoop is gevestigd op dit discussie-medium, om er achter te komen of ik de enige ben die dit probleem niet onder de knie weet te krijgen! Kan iemand mij op weg helpen, om dit probleem te begrijpen, en uiteindelijk op te lossen? Bij voorbaat dank! M.vr.gr., Geert -- Geert C.H.M.
