Column sets (span) & unwanted vertical gap
by Procházka Lukáš Ing. 01 Oct '19

01 Oct '19

Hello, the code bellow produces unwanted vertical gap between the bottom border of the figure and the following title "A" in the first column (marked by red arrows "<->" in the PDF attached). Note that in the second column there is no such gap. I tried to play with "before", "inbetween", "beforesection" and other keys of \setuphead to remove the gap but without success. Is there a way to avoid the vertical gap? My code so far: ---- \setuppapersize[A3,landscape] \setuplayout [topspace=10mm,header=5mm,headerdistance=5mm,height=270mm, backspace=20mm,width=380mm, ] \setupheadertexts[] \setupfootertexts[] \definecolumnset[example][n=3,balancing=no] \definecolumnsetspan[wide][n=2] \setupexternalfigures[location=default] \setupindenting[no] \setupwhitespace[none] \setuplayout[grid=yes] \definehead[MyTit][title] \setuphead[MyTit] [style=\bf,color=MyBlue, before={\blank[none]},after={\blank[none]},inbetween={\blank[none]},beforesection={BS},aftersection={AS}, page=no,%grid=yes, ] % %\showframe %\showboxes %\showlayout % \starttext \startcolumnset[example] \startcolumnsetspan[wide] \externalfigure[cow][height=120mm,frame=on] %\vbox to120mm{} \stopcolumnsetspan \MyTit{A} \input knuth \MyTit{B} \input knuth \stopcolumnset \stoptext ---- Best regards, Lukas -- Ing.

Mkiv, fonts in text and math mode, with \definebodyfont
by Stefano Sanguinetti 01 Oct '19

01 Oct '19

Hello, I am trying to understand something more about fonts in text and math mode, in Mkiv Context. I would like to be able to change things at the "define body fonts" level. I tried the following, in order to have rsfs fonts : \setupbodyfont[12pt] \definebodyfont[12pt][rm][tf=rsfs10 sa *] \starttext \tf ABCD \tfa ABCD \stoptext The \tfa ABCD is displayed as rsfs as I wanted, but the \tf ABCD is displayed as default fonts. Why ? What could I change in order to have \tf ABCD in rsfs ? In math mode, I am not able to have rsfs fonts : \setupbodyfont[12pt] \definebodyfont[12pt][mm][mr=rsfs10 sa *,ex=rsfs10 sa *,mi=rsfs10 sa *,sy=rsfs10 sa *,ma=rsfs10 sa *,mb=rsfs10 sa *] \starttext $ABCD$ \stoptext That gives ABCD in default math mode fonts. Is there a simple way to do it with the \definebodyfont command ? Thank you in advance for your comments.

Column(set)s & overlapping lines

Dear all, todays upgrade broke my context installation (context and lmtx) as context now uses GLIBC_2.29 which is not available in Debian 10 buster. After using my backup I now wonder if from now on ConTeXt won't support Debian stable anymore? juh

Custom Footertext
by Jeroen 30 Sep '19

30 Sep '19

Dear list members, I am using the following environment file. The document itself is made-up of sections only. Instead of the section as footer, I would like to add a custom footer text throughout the document, starting at the second page as is the page numbering. I just don't seem to be able to adjust it. Who can help me out? Best Regards, Jeroen \startenvironment mkivcnotesenv \setuppapersize[A4,portrait] [A4,portrait] \setuplayout[backspace=20mm, width=175mm, topspace=20mm, header=0mm, footer=2mm, height=263mm, bottomheight=1mm, footerdistance=10mm] \usetypescript[pagella] \setupbodyfont[pagella,12pt] \setupcolors[state=start] \setuptype[style={\switchtobodyfont[11pt,tt]}] \setuptyping[style={\switchtobodyfont[11pt,tt]}] \setupfootertexts[section][] \setupfooter[alternative=,style=\bf\em] \setuppagenumbering[alternative=,location={footer,right},style=\bf\em] \setcounter[userpage][0] \setupcombinedlist[content][level=1] \setupexternalfigures[directory={images}] \stopenvironment

Multi-letter words/identifiers in math
by Shuxian Wang 30 Sep '19

30 Sep '19

Dear list, I am trying to typeset some multi-letter words/identifiers in mathematical formulas. Currently, doing things like `{\it variable}` or `{\mathit variable}` under math mode will cause the engine to shift all characters into the corresponding unicode mathematical alphanumeric block position. However, most OpenType fonts that have good support for unicode math are optimized for single-character usage. Therefore, the outcome of such method is non-ideal, as no kerning or ligatures will be enabled. Especially, this gives bad output when typesetting variable names with combinations like “ffi”. Looking through some past discussions on the list, I am aware of the usage of `\mathword` and `\mathtext`. Using those command will keep all the characters “as is” and typeset them under text mode (as far as I can tell). But those commands switch to the main body fonts temporarily to accomplish this. Sometime when using a different math font than the main font (like Palatino with Latin Modern Math), I wish my variable names can also be in the math font (or at least very similar, such as Latin Modern vs. Latin Modern Math) to better merge with the formula. The way I am currently doing is to introduce some “math text fonts” that is different from the main text font but close to the math font. And with custom font switchers like `\mwrm` and `\mwit` to help me define things like ``` \def\wordrm#1{\mbox{\mwrm #1}} \def\wordit#1{\mbox{\mwit #1}} ``` Am I missing some builtin functionalities or easier ways to do this? If not, would it be a good idea to extend the functionality of `\mathword` so it lifts out the restriction of only using the main text font? Thanks! Shuxian Wang
