Wolfgang,

Thank you! Removing the auxiliary file solved the problem.

Do you have a example where anything besides \thanks fails. I changed 
\thanks to another commands in the example below and there was no 
problem to do so. The only thing you *have* to do when you change the 
command is to remove the auxiliary file (context --purge) because the 
old (non existing) command is otherwise used in the next run which 
results then in an error message.

Dear Hans,

many thanks for the beta from 2014.06.11 15:52.

All wrong page breaks due to subtitles that I reported to this list (I
think they have been four) seem to be fixed with this beta.

Many thanks for your work,

You want this, I think:

  currentpicture := currentpicture scaled X;

Hi,

I use the method of
u=1mm;
in the beginning and then use u as the "unit".
I think "currentpicture" is what you are after otherwise, but not sure.

Hi Taco,

Sorry for the typo and for not being clear. I meant the following. I know that
"scaled" command can be used to scale any particular component. To scale the
whole picture does one have to scale each and every component individually, or
is there one command that scales every component. 

One way is perhaps to define a variable, say u=1cm and express all measurements
in terms of "u". Then by changing just "u" one can scale the whole picture (and
all the components) up or down. Is there another way? For example, in TikZ there
is a command "scale" which scales the entire picture if put as an option to
\begin{tikzpicture}. I was wondering if something like that is available in
Metapost too.

[NTG-context] Thanks. Two new questions: rotate and scale

[Curious Learn]

Aditya and Hans,

Thanks very much for your replies. I suppose I should install minimals afterall.
Still using the TexLive version. 

I have two new questions:

(1) In the following code the triangle outline (obtained with the "draw"
command) does not rotate, i.e., I get the same triangle as without the "rotated"
command. On the other hand the fill command rotates as expected. What is wrong?

\startuseMPgraphic{Dir} 
pickup pencircle scaled 2pt;
numeric u;
u=2cm;
draw (0,0) -- dir(0)*u -- dir(60)*u --cycle rotated 60;
fill (0,0) -- dir(0)*u -- dir(60)*u --cycle rotated 60 withcolor 
(0.58,0.94,0.9);
\stopuseMPgraphic  
\useMPgraphic{Dir} 


(2) Is there a command to scale the whole picture...not the components? 

Thanks very much. 

I have said this before but want to say this again. Thanks so much to the
developers of Context who have given us this wonderful system. Thanks also to
all the people on this mailing list who take their precious time to answer
questions.

what encoding do you use? ec or texnansi .. and what font do you want to

[NTG-context] Thanks for the boxes with schems

[Charles P. Schaum]

Thanks, Hans, for the suggestion. It works quite well, except the \ae{}
macro starts producing a lowercase j. My guess is this refers to an
encoding issue, since I found that using \sc tends to not do small caps
except for using Computer Modern.

I did RTFM, but I'm just not making the connection. If someone can point
me to a document on fonts that I can work through ... the section in the
manual left me a little confused. After using Pagemaker, Quark, and
InDesign, I kinda get the approach but it seems to be a culture shock
like Metafont was and remains. I copied the examples from the manual
when I did a book mock-up for work and that worked real well. Everyone
was impressed by what ConTeXt could do, although the official workflow
will remain Incopy and InDesign. Still, I uotdid an experienced graphic
designer using Adobe CS3 with my little bit of code for schemas. ConTeXt
and friends have some unique benefits.

So if I could solve the font mystery, I would be grateful. I have some
books, for example, that I would like to reproduce with ConTeXt by
scanning the Fraktur and OCR'ing with tesseract, then doing the layout
with ConTeXt. I have an Ernestine Bible (Das Weimarische Bibelwerk) for
which the binding is shot but the pages are good. This way will take
much less than scanned images, although some images will remain.

Ultimately I would like to make something like yfonts, but with unicode
or some standard encoding to allow either umlauts or superscript e. In
my own library I have books from the early eighteenth century on, and
Google books has more, so there's no lack of subjects to scan into
Fontforge.

Charles

[NTG-context] thanks for context-stub

[Peter Münster]

Hello Hans,

Thanks for the context-stub! Now it's possible to say "context file"
and using MKIV without "% engine=luatex" in the file.

One small bug-fix for spaces in filename: $@ -> "$@"

And one small feature request: it would be nice to get the ConTeXt-version
with "context --version".

Cheers, Peter

[NTG-context] [Thanks !] mpost called from context

[Laurent Chéno]

( please excuse my poor english )

Thank you very much : this works now very well.
Best regards,
Laurent

For others beginners under MacOS X, there is the right way I used :

0. intall the Gerben Wierda's distribution of teTeX : see 
http://www.rna.nl/tex.html

1. modify line 50 of /usr/local/teTeX/texmf.cnf so it is :
shell_escape = t
2. copy /usr/local/teTeX/share/texmf.tetex/tex/context/user/cont-sys.rme
into
~/Library/texmf/tex/context/cont-sys.tex
and delete the %-comment in front of lines 87--88 :
\runMPgraphicstrue
\runMPTEXgraphicstrue
