“Work in progress” is the title of one of my projects: life.
As a opinion, it might be easier to have a user module ("cg-journal")
that is more accurate.
This might help the writer to see the final output.
But this is just my personal opinion.

No crashes so far. If it asks for permission, it is working fine. It might be (a wild guess, since I don’t have access to macOS system) that the issue only happens with Windows computers.

[NTG-context] (any) link with document breaks Reader DC
Dear list,
investigating the issue of why Acrobat Reader DC doesn’t recognize
ConTeXt signatures, I related it to another issue.
I use Acrobat Reader DC for Windows at work. DC is regularly updated.
Since a year ago or so, if I open a PDF document (opening Acrobat with
the document) and double-click (sometimes, it may be triple-click) too
fast on a link or a signature field (either to be signed or already
signed), Acrobat Reader crashes.
I have tested sample documents on other computers and with other people
and everybody told me Reader crashed.
BTW, the document structure is perfectly fine (according to the
Arlington PDF model from the PDF specification).
I thought Acrobat Reader DC changed something and this was buggy. I have
been consistently experiencing this issue for about a year, so I took
for granted it was a common bug.
I experienced the crash only with the Spanish version (the one installed
on all tested computers). Although I sometimes I load the English
version by pressing Ctrl when starting Acrobat, right now I cannot say
whether I experienced the crash with the English version loaded.
But this seemed to be not enough, since I have just found out that
Acrobat Reader for Windows and macOS with the US English version may not
crash (I was told).
The sample document contains only a link. It has generated from the
following source:
\setupinteraction[state=start]
\starttext
\startTEXpage[offset=1dk]
\protected\define[1]\myurl%
{{\tt\goto{\hyphenatedurl{#1}}[url(#1)]}}
\myurl{https://contextgarden.net}
\stopTEXpage
\stoptext
Sorry for asking for this, but would you be so kind to compile (or
download the attachment) and open it with an updated Acrobat (opening
Acrobat with the document)?
I need that you double (or triple) click on the link (to the Garden) as
fast as you can.
Either if this crashes Acrobat or not, I would really appreciate if you
could tell me which is your OS and language version of Acrobat.
I’m affraid I cannot tell yet what may be triggering the crash, but I
view PDF in Windows with SumatraPDF.
When I open them with Acrobat and click on any kind of link too fast, I
get back to SumatraPDF (since Acrobat crashed and dissapeared).
Excuse for what it seems to be a tricky issue with Acrobat (the
signature being way more important than the crash ).
Many thanks for your help in advance,
Pablo

Hi Kirill,
this font feature may work too:
\startluacode

B = "B.sc",

M = "M.sc",

O = "O.sc",
P = "P.sc",
Q = "Q.sc",
R = "R.sc",
S = "S.sc",
T = "T.sc",
U = "U.sc",
V = "V.sc",
W = "W.sc",
X = "X.sc",
Y = "Y.sc",
Z = "Z.sc",
},
}
\stopluacode
\definefontfeature[allsc][c2sc=yes, smcp=yes,
addedsc=yes]
But in that case, you may have c2sc and addedsc as mutually exclusive.
Just in case it might help,

I have tested
https://mirrors.ctan.org/fonts/newcomputermodern/otf/NewCM10-Book.otf
(released less than 10 days ago) and there is no c2sc for the Latin script.
I have used FontForge and tested metrics (Metrics > New Metrics Window
[Ctrl+K on my computer]).

I’m afraid to say that the c2sc in the font seems to be a mess (to me at
least).
> What could be the reason to it? Is there anything I could do to

The following sample works for me (excluding Greek glyphs).
script=auto, if you need to set the script (automatically).
c2sc=always, if you need Greek c2sc.
lowercasing=yes, since the smcp feature works for Latin glyphs.
In a minimal sample:
\definefontfeature [default] [default] [script=auto]
\definefontfeature[allsc][c2sc=yes, smcp=yes,
lowercasing=yes]
\setupbodyfont[stix]
\starttext
\startbuffer

Sorry for the mess, Wolfang and Hraban.
I wasn’t aware of the mistake, since the PDF document was neither
deleted not showing the colorful error word.
I created the document with other commands and I rewrote them
(introducing this error).

[NTG-context] (off-topic) hovering over links in Acrobat Reader
Dear list,
I have the following source:
\setupbodyfont[dejavu, sans, 24pt]
\setupinteraction[state=start, style=, color=,
contrastcolor=, display=new]
\enabledirectives[references.border=darkgreen]
\def\myurl#1%

\goto{An embedded PDF document}[signed-a::]
\blank[.5st]
\myurl{https://contextgarden.net}
\blank[.5st]
\myhref{A link to the Garden}{https://contextgarden.net}
\stopTEXpage
\stoptext
I also attach my output, since the first link is a link to an embedded
document and not the expected link to an external document (I modified
ConTeXt to get that kind of link).
The issue I’m experiencing with Acrobat Reader DC on Windows
(automatically updated to latest version) is that when hovering over
links, I get different results.
The three links are (in order from top to bottom):
1. A link to the embedded document.
2. An external link with its address as text.
3. Another external link without its address as text.
Some days (as today [sorry, I don’t have access to Windows now]),
hovering over the three links displayed the word "link" (even with
Acrobat set to Spanish).
Other days, hovering over the first link displays nothing and hovering
over the two other links show their actual destination address.
This behavior seems so random to me that I‘m not sure I’m not missing
anything.
Would you be so kind to test the attached document (and the one you may
generate from the sample source) hovering over the link frames in
Acrobat (ideally DC updated to latest)?
At least, I would like to be sure what is going on here.
Hovering over links is basic precaution before clicking them.
To explain that to others, I’d rather know how Acrobat (Reader) behaves
in these cases.
Sorry the off-topic issue and many thanks for your help in advance,
Pablo

On MSYS2 (Win10), I have both libs even on the bin directory.

On Linux, I have both (from openssl-libs.x86_64 and openssl-libs.i686):
/usr/lib64/libcrypto.so.3
/usr/lib64/libcrypto.so.3.2.1

/usr/lib/libcrypto.so.3
/usr/lib/libcrypto.so.3.2.1
/usr/lib/libssl.so.3
/usr/lib/libssl.so.3.2.1
This might be causing the issue, but I’m afraid Wine needs 32bit libs.
I need to check this further.

Not at all. Sorry for my poor wording. From the PDF-1.7 spec itself (https://opensource.adobe.com/dc-acrobat-sdk-docs/pdfstandards/PDF32000_2008.pdf#search=ByteRange): This range should be the entire file, including the signature dictionary but excluding the signature value itself (the Contents entry). Other ranges may be used but since they do not check for all changes to the document, their use is not recommended. When a byte range digest is present, all values in the signature dictionary shall be direct objects. Signatures in PDF-2.0 loose their possibility of other ranges than the entire file. Their use is simply not allowed. >> Sorry for insisting, but please don’t require plaintext password in the >> command line (again, OpenSSL prompts for it). > not if we use the library Weird, on both Linux64 and Win64, the openssl runner requires the openssl binary to be installed.

I’m afraid that the patch is needed since /ByteRange excludes a blank space before the value of /Contents that is in the temporary file (tmpfile). I mean, here are the contens of the temporary file from the sample (tweaked to fit a single line]): << /ByteRange [ … 006421 010520 000384 ] /Contents / Byte 6421 is the s (before the underscore): << /ByteRange [ … 006421 010520 000384 ] /Contents_ / The blank space (marked above with the underscore) is included in the hashed file (tmpfile), but it is not included in the /ByteRange. This is the reason why we can only have digest mismatch. As for total document signing, it is better only to exclude from /ByteRange the value for /Contents (from < to >).

[NTG-context] digital signing in ConTeXt
Dear list,
the latest version of LMTX can digitally sign PDF documents. It requires
OpenSSL installed (since it does the crypto part).
I have two issues that I would like to be tested by others.
A sample certificate may be found at
https://mailman.ntg.nl/archives/list/ntg-context@ntg.nl/message/ECSXLVMT3TMQBIHA2UZJPWJN7OVV5334/attachment/2/mycert.pfx
(I sent it myself).
Here is a sample document (actually provided by Hans):
\setupinteraction[state=start]
\definefield[signature][signed]
\defineoverlay[signature][my signature]
\starttext
\startTEXpage[offset=1ts,frame=on,framecolor=darkblue]
sign: \inframed[background=signature,framecolor=darkred]
{\fieldbody[signature][width=3cm,option=hidden]}
\stopTEXpage
\stoptext
After compiling the sample, you need to run:
mtxrun --script pdf --sign --certificate=c.pfx --password=ABCabc doc.pdf
Password will be prompted again ("ABCabc"), since it is an encrypted
certificate (also for the public part).
Could anyone confirm the following issues?
1. The signature I get is wrong, unless I apply this patch
(https://mailman.ntg.nl/archives/list/dev-cont...@ntg.nl/message/T3OCKVZWTUTIXCSOKIFRVJ4X76MROZHE/attachment/3/byterange.diff
[sent by myself to the devel list]).
2. I cannot get any signature display in Acrobat. Does any PDF viewer (I
have tested this with pdfsig from poppler and MuPDF-GL) display the
digital signature at all?
Many thanks for your help,
Pablo

\xmldoifatt (with ifnot and ifelse variants) should cover that case

[NTG-context] suggestion: two templates for the wiki
Dear Taco and Hraban,
trying to improve the XML page from the wiki, I think it would be
extremely useful to have two templates for inline code:
{{xml|…}}: inline XML highlighted as for blocks.
{{tex|…}}: inline TeX code highlighted as for blocks.
As for the second, {{cmd|…}} includes a link (not always required) and
doesn‘t higlight more than the command itself.
Let me know whether I can contribute in any way to this.
Many thanks for your help,
Pablo

Not sure I’m getting your point.
But this should show a difference in font size:
\definenote[Mynote]

Could you show how the second paragraph above doesn‘t inherit both size
and color from the current font?
Sorry, otherwise I simply don’t get it.

I don’t think the text command value is right.
Besides, if you intend the second paragraph from the sample, this
approach looks unnecessarily complex for me.

First of all, lpaths are XPath implemented with Lua in ConTeXt. XPath seems to have as it primary purpose to address the nodes of XML trees. About your sources, the real issue here is to define whether you want TEI or TeX to be the format containing them. I mean, if you add explaining footnotes to your TeX file(s), XML won’t be source anymore. If you don’t want this to happen, you have to encode them in the TEI XML sources. One last suggestion about proofreading. This is something I learnt from personal experience. The first reading is much better to catch errors in the text than the subsequent ones. Having the text properly formatted and printed on paper helps a lot to spot errors. Reading source code is cheaper (no doubt), but the results will be poorer too.

Hi Christoph,
as far as I know (and as Hraban has already mentioned), this is not
possible.
Either XSLT or pandoc would be a way to do that.
That being said, I would avoid conversion (a second source) in all cases.
I use ConTeXt to typeset XML sources typing Markdown sources.
pandoc generates XML and then ConTeXt typesets these XML sources.

(narrow no-breaking space and thin space, respectively).

I don’t mean the proofreader personally, but TeX code may not be
inherenlty more readable that XML code.
Compile the following:
\starttext
\startXML
St.Martin
A comprehensive treatise
The medieval part of the church
\stopXML
\startTEX
\starttext
\startchapter[title=St.\, Martin] \stopchapter
\startsection[title=The medieval part of the church]\stopsection
\stoptext
\stopTEX
\stoptext
I think that a text editor with reasonable highlighting for XML is key
to your issue.
I mean, XML sources tend to be highlighted leaving pure text as
uncolored and unformatted (no bold or italics).
In that case, I think the text to be proofread may be recognized as not
having any format at all (besides not enclosed inside "<" and ">").

No, these are formatting commands after the mapping.
In short, there are three steps involved in XML typesetting.
First, you select which elements you would like to select from the XML
source in an XML setup (with a mapping to your configuration commands).
Second, you register this XML setup.
Third, your configure the selected elements with ConTeXt commands.
Here is a sample (using a buffer instead of an external file):
\startbuffer[demo]
line 1
line 2
line 3
\stopbuffer
\starttext
\startxmlsetups abc:def
\xmlsetsetup{#1}{foo|bar}{xyz:*}
\stopxmlsetups
\xmlregistersetup{abc:def}
\startxmlsetups xyz:foo
\xmlflush{#1}
\stopxmlsetups
\startxmlsetups xyz:bar
\startparagraph
\xmlflush{#1}
\stopparagraph
\stopxmlsetups
\xmlprocessbuffer{main}{demo}{}
\stoptext
First of all, XML has no hardcoded names for any element (from a certain
point of view, XML are only rules on how to use the "<>" tags).
This is why, and are perfectly valid element names (although
they have no meaning for people).
Second, the mapping may use any name for destination setups.
\xmlsetsetup does the mappings, the second group of parentheses contains
the lpath (an Lua version of XPath [how XML is selected]) and the third
group of parentheses is setups.
The command \xmlsetsetup{#1}{foo|bar}{xyz:*} above is bound to existing
elements (or paths) in the XML source, but both "xyz:foo" and "xzy:bar"
may read as the user wants.
Third, after that you need specify the setup for each mapping (or it
won’t appear in your final document).
The setup is what you defined as the second part of the mapping, may it
be "xml:title" or "xyz:bar".
Nothing here is hardcoded. XML is not HTML (elements with meaning).
In order to deal with XML, ConTeXt has to provide the tools to select
elements (and more complex constructs) and map them to configurable setups.
How both tools (construct selection and setup configurations) may be
deployed, this is up to each individual.
Hardcoding this would be a real problem in the short run.
> If this is the case, can this intermediate context representation be
> exported, and how would this be done?
Nice try, but I’m afraid this is not how it works.
I hope my explanation may be minimally clear to understand why your
approach is different from what ConTeXt offers.
Feel free to ask, if my explanation wasn’t clear enough.
I hope it helps,
Pablo

Hi Christoph, not clear to me whether you meant an environment (a format file) with the ConTeXt generated file.

[NTG-context] issue with signing

mtxrun --script pdf --sign --certificate=mycert.pfx --password=ABCabc a
It requires the pass phrase (again?) and I get a signed PDF document.

[NTG-context] wrong font scaling in LMTX?

Scaled \ssx and \ssxx are wrong in LMTX (not scaled at all).
All font sizes are scaled fine in MkIV.
In both cases, I‘m running latest from 2024.05.17 16:32.
Could anyone confirm the issue?
BTW, this is the first time I indent the sample sent to the list with a
single character (one tab) instead of two or four spaces.

Just a comment about typescripts.
At least in how I use ConTeXt, I live happily without having to use them.
See the following sample:
\definefontfamily[libertin][rm][Libertinus Serif]
\definefontfamily[libertin][ss][Libertinus Sans]
\definefontfamily[libertin][tt][Libertinus Mono]
\definefontfamily[cormora][rm][Cormorant]

\starttext
\input zapf\par
\switchtobodyfont[libertin]
\doloopoverlist{\rm,\ss,\tt}

You may define font families (which are actually typeface families).
I think they may be easier to use than typefaces.

Hi Miguel,
this should work (also in the sense of a minimal sample):
\showframe\showgrid
\defineframedtext[FunnyText]
[frame=on, align=flushright,location=right]
\def\FrameTitle#1%
{\setMPtext{FunnyFrame}

\define[2]\firstHeadings{%
\dontleavehmode \switchtobodyfont[miCorm]%
\FrameTitle#1%
\startFunnyText
{\switchtobodyfont[miCorm,20.7pt] #2}
\stopFunnyText}
\setuphead [section] [command=\firstHeadings, indentnext=no]
\starttext
\startsection[title=a]
b
\stopsection
\startsection[title=a]
b
\stopsection
\startsection[title=a]
b
\stopsection
\stoptext
BTW, you inadvertely introduce the space here:
\define[2]\firstHeadings{%
\dontleavehmode \switchtobodyfont[miCorm]%
\FrameTitle#1%
Unless you comment the space after the right bracket, it will be
included in your definition of first headings.
As for external downloads, better avoid unless required.
In any case, the minimal code should be part of your message.

[NTG-context] weird \inlinetypebuffer interaction
Dear list, I have the following sample: \definefontfamily[mainface][tt][TeX Gyre Termes] \setupbodyfont[mainface] \starttext \startbuffer context --purgeall \stopbuffer inline \typeinlinebuffer block: \typebuffer \stoptext As long as there is no defined font family for mono, \typeinlinebuffer doesn’t convert -- into an en-dash (the same way as \typebuffer behaves). But as in the sample above, when a font is defined for mono (at least with \definefontfamily), \typeinlinebuffer converts -- into en-dashes (different from \typebuffer). Sorry, but how could I fix this \typeinlinebuffer?

[NTG-context] unprotecting when defining in Lua
Dear list,
I have the following sample:
\starttext
\startluacode
function document.test(str)
context(str)
end
interfaces.definecommand {
name = "testing",
protected = false,
macro = document.test,
}
\stopluacode
\meaningfull\testing
\def\test#1{#1}
\meaningfull\test
\stoptext
Which is the right way to use "interfaces.definecommand" to get a simple
command as in standard TeX?
I mean, no a non \permanent or non \protected command.
Many thanks for your help,
Pablo

Hi Joel,
the bibliography part doesn’t work for me at all.
But notes may be placed as their location is text (and you add a real
footnote).
This works fine:
\setupnote[footnote][location=text]
\starttext
\input knuth
\footnote{Footnote}
\cite[clark1989]
\placenotes[footnote]
\startchapter[title=Bibliography]
\placelistofpublications

I never used a bibliography in ConTeXt, so that part is left to you.
I hope it helps,

[NTG-context] \luaescapestring in proper Lua
Dear list,
I have the following sample:

function document.print_the_thing(str)
context(str)
end
\stopluacode
\unexpanded\def\PrintTheThing#1{%
\ctxlua{document.print_the_thing([[\luaescapestring{#1}]])}}
\PrintTheThing{a \em b {c}}
\stoptext
I wonder whether there is a proper way in the Lua code to avoid
[[\luaescapestring{}]] in \ctxlua.
BTW, [[\luaescapestring{}]] in \ctxlua works better for me, since in my
real world document, I’m using str:match() to check whether the string
ends with interrogation or exclamation marks ("%?!$").

I don’t think so.
In some cases you may not get the ligature for a good reason:
\starttyping
program --option=value file.ext
\stoptyping
It would make no sense to get an en-dash there (but I guess you don’t
mean that).
But all OSes provide character maps to get single characters. And also
Unicodia works fine in Windows (https://mercury13.github.io/unicodia/,
just in case it might suit your needs).
Having a single character (emoji, dashes or whatever) is way more
readable than a character combination for a ligature or a TeX command.
This single-character approach also makes easier to copy and paste text
to other formats.

Just consider that you should add an horizontal box (or pair both space
and hyphen), otherwise you may get a line break between character and
hyphen (instead of the hair space):
\starttext
\startTEXpage[offset=2st]
\hsize\zeropoint
this —\hairspace or so\hairspace— that
this \hbox{—\hairspace}or so\hbox{\hairspace—} that
\stopTEXpage
\stoptext

[NTG-context] (again) \xmlinlineprettyprinttext double hyphens
Dear list,

Current LMTX (2024.03.11 09:34) is giving different results for double
hyphens with \xmlprettyprinttext and \xmlinlineprettyprinttext.
Since the output of \xmlinlineprettyprinttext is a wrong argument (in
the sample), what am I missing here to get the right output with
\xmlinlineprettyprinttext?

Some comments on the code fragments you sent.
First of all, please include always code that can be compiled simply

You define this margin framed, but your sample makes no use of it.

If your sample includes no theorem or text background, please remove
these definitions when sending code.
BTW, avoid include text content (such as margin and body rules [but not
their definitions]) before \starttext.
Also, use \clrf instead of \\ (since the mailing list displays the
relevant line as ("\" instead of "\\"):
> \margintext{\blackrule[color=black, height=0.10ex, width=1cm]\}
Here starts your text:

Your margin text is undefined. Your code has a defined margin text
command, but it isn’t used.
> So I have here an example from the second page:
Sorry, but I’m having the impression you are using ConTeXt as a kind of
command-based DTP software (which I think it isn’t at all).
Or, do you define commands for each page?
I think it is better to define a single margin text command and use a
doublesided page setup.

Again, margin text commands defined, but never used.

Here you open a brace that is not closed at all.
At least, consider that this won’t be extremely readable for other
people (this is only a sample).
It also may be problematic for you, if you leave the source untouched
for some weeks.

At least, it would be better not to include a definition inside content
that seems to (or may) be grouped with braces.
BTW, it is exactly the same definition as the one included before.
It isn’t just to be removed in minimal samples, your final code doesn’t
need the duplicated command definition.

Please, always compile the minimal samples that you send to the list.
This is simply to ensure other list subscribers will get the same
results as you.
After adding a final \stoptext command, I had to run:
mtxrun --script check source-sample.tex
This allowed me to spot the problem with the unclosed brace (mentioned
before).

I will wikify this, once I figure out where it can fit in the wiki (in due time, since ConTeXt is more and more complex for me lately and my free time is less and less these days).

[NTG-context] weird character normalization in the wiki
Dear list,
https://wiki.contextgarden.net/Greek#Monotonic_and_Acute_Accent includes
two samples that should display the difference betweeen the monotonic
accent and the polytonic acute accent (which generate two different
characters for each such accented vowel).
Excluding other implications, these are two different characters. In
some fonts each pair of different characters for each accented letter
lead to the same glyph, in other fonts those glyphs are different.
This sample shows the difference (there should display two slightly
different accents [unless there is some character normalization on the
way]):
\definefontfamily[mainface][rm][EBGaramond]
\setupbodyfont[mainface, 500pt]
\definecolor [tred] [r=1,t=.5,a=1]
\definecolor [tblue] [b=1,t=.25,a=1]
\starttext
\startTEXpage[offset=1ex]
\startoverlay
{\color[tred]{Ά}}
{\color[tblue]{Ά}}
\stopoverlay
\stopTEXpage
\stoptext
The problem that I have is tricky. Thanks to character normalization (at
least in Firefox), searching for "á" will also find "a" (unless “Match
diacritics” is enabled).
I’m afraid the wiki is performing some character normalization, which
renders samples in
https://wiki.contextgarden.net/Greek#Monotonic_and_Acute_Accent useless.
Searching for "Ά" in https://wiki.contextgarden.net/Greek should give
not more than 4 matches (not case-sensitive and with “Match diacritics”
[or similar filter for your browser] enabled). I‘m afraid I get none.
While editing the article searching for "Ά" (case-insensitive and not
normalizing characters), gave me 4 matches, but only in the source (no
ocurrence was found in the preview).
Once changes are saved, "Ά" occurrences dissapear (since they seem to be
normalized).
Sure, they may be a workaround to type codepoints instead of characters
(such as with \utfchar{0x1fbb}, but wouln’t it be possible to disable
that character normalization in the wiki?
Many thanks for your help,
Pablo

Sorry, my LuaTeX is getting slanted b and d ("c" was my typo).
But I see what was causing my issue (line from
~/texmf/texmf-local/cont-loc.mkxl):
\enableexperiments[fonts.compact]
Which seeems weird to me. Or at least, I thought I read that Hans
enabled it by default in LMTX.

fonts or by doing it twice.

Dear list,
the following latest gets differents results when compiled with MkXL and
MkIV (in current latest from 2024.03.05 11:26):
\definefontfamily[mainface][rm][TeX Gyre Termes]

\setupbodyfont[mainface]
\starttext
\startTEXpage[offset=1em]
a\\
\em b\\
\em c\\
\em d\\
\stopTEXpage

LMTX gets b, c and d in slanted form.
LuaTeX gets only b and c in slanted form.
I think LMTX may have an issue here.
Could anyone be so kind to confirm this?
