Lastly, current beta does not support subfonts contained in TTC (truetype collection).  TTC fonts are becoming more and more difficult to find, but we still can find them especially in CJK world. It's quite simple to support them: just commenting out three lines from font-dum.lua

-- function fonts.define.get_specification(str) --     return "", str, "", ":", str -- end

Additionally, to be able to access TTC subfonts with "name:" method, a patch should be inserted into font-dum.lua as follows: if found then local filename, is_sub = found[3], found[4] + if is_sub then is_sub = found[2] end return filename, is_sub else Regards, Dohyun Kim

OK, here is a collection of some assorted bugs. Most of them have been posted several times. Of course, everybody will have their own feeling of what is more and what is less urgent, but I will just add a few words about my own situation:

Taco's bib module does not work with the current beta. For me, this is a showstopper, I will have to give up on mkiv as long as this does not work.

I add my vote for this, too. (however, I do remember reading some discussion related to this around the beginning of April...) %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% Also, \placeindex (\placeregister in general) is broken. However, I have been unable yet to produce a "minimal" example as my simple tests all work correctly! In a big project (book with many references, etc.), under mkiv I get (compiles fine under mkii): !

I feel sorry for you, but I do not know what to do about it anymore.

Yes, in your recent mail (http://archive.contextgarden.net/message/20090514.080826.d48ffa7a.en.html ), you explained why the ball was in Hans's field now; let's hope he picks it up!

...

For almost two weeks, I haven't been able to connect to the supelec website to bring my luatex to the latest version; is this a problem on my end, or is access to the svn repositories currently disabled?

This post should explain the issue:

Ah thanks, that explains it! All best Thomas

Taco, hi, could you please include a feature that allows listing the set of pages that an item was cited on, I'm sure this is present in LaTeX.

As I can't even get the core functionality working, this is a very bad moment for feature requests, but I'll keep this in mind while designing the new module. Best wishes, Taco

2. Section numbers in markings are duplicated

fixed in next beta (marks got a prefix)

3. trep and tlig features don't work in node mode

hm, i gave it another try ... also in next beta ... is bit tricky as this is a feature that does not fall in some script/lang category (i'd put it in default (which works) but we need more in node mode they are implemented by faking real features (a mechanism that was somewhat extended recently to support anum and pnum for arabic and persian numbering) Hans ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | fax: 038 477 53 74 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl -----------------------------------------------------------------

Will do during the weekend. (I'm at a conference in Belgium right now.) All best Thomas
