Helvetica ?

Helvetica ?

[Steffen Wolfrum]

Hi,

I used to install the fonts that I need for contexing.

But for the current project only Helvetica is needed, and so I 
remembered Patrick saying:

>  using Helvetica works for me:
>  --------------------------------------------------
>  \usetypescript [adobekb][\defaultencoding]
>  \usetypescript [postscript][\defaultencoding]
>  \setupbodyfont[pos,ss,12pt]
>
>  \starttext
>  foo
>  \stoptext


But not for me. The same file as above results in:

>  Warning: pdfetex (file ec-urw-times.map): cannot open font map file
> 
>{/usr/local/teTeX/share/texmf.local/fonts/map/pdftex/context/original-youngryu-

>

>  ]
>  systems         : end file helve at line 25
>   )
>  Warning: pdfetex (file phvr8r): Font phvr8r at 86 not found


What is missing? I am working (under OSX) with Hans' recent Beta, 
with Gerbens latest tex i-package, and I also saw various helvetica 
pfb files being installed with Gerbens distro.

So, shouldn't contexing with Helvetica work just out-of-the-box, as 
Patrick said?

I'm taking a leap with this, because I don't have my gwTeX box at hand,
but try

  \usetypescript [adobekb]    [8r]
  \usetypescript [postscript] [8r]
  \setupbodyfont [pos,ss,12pt]

gwTeX (IIRC) has a full complement of adobe 8r metrics. Note that
helvetica in the postscript typescript is scaled at 90% so "12pt"
actually means 10.8pt.

A (my) OTR problem

[luigi.scarso]

[-- Attachment #1.1: Type: text/plain, Size: 1328 bytes --]

I have the following code:

\showframe
\setuplayout[topdistance=0mm,topspace=10mm,header=10mm,headerdistance=10mm,
            footerdistance=5mm,footer=20mm,bottomspace=2mm,
            backspace=25mm,
            
rightmargin=10mm,rightmargindistance=1mm,rightedge=0mm,rightedgedistance=0mm,
             
leftmargin=15mm,leftmargindistance=1mm,leftedge=9mm,leftedgedistance=0mm,
            width=fit,height=fit,
             location=middle]

\newdimen\RightMarginWidth \RightMarginWidth=\rightmarginwidth
\def\PageNumber#1{\vbox to \footerheight{\vss\hbox 
to\RightMarginWidth{\hss #1 \hss}\vss}}
\setuppagenumbering[location={margin},alternative=doublesided,command={\PageNumber}]

\newbox\ContinueNextPage \setbox\ContinueNextPage=\vbox{\strut\hbox 
to\textwidth{\hfill\mathematics{\blacktriangleright}\mathematics{\blacktriangleright}\quad}}


\starttext
\dorecurse{20}%
{\framed[width=\textwidth,height=3em,align={middle,lohi}]{\hfil
    \CONTEXT --\recurselevel \hfil}}%

\stoptext


I would like to put \copy\ContinueNextPage after the last \framed in 
every page
(in this example, after CONTEXT--18 at page 1 and CONTEXT--36 at page 2).

I don't want use tables/tabular, i try to use \vsplit.

I try to read page-ini, i find useful things like \everyafterpagebody
but i'm still confused.

Thanks in advance,
luigi

why don't you use \rightmarginwidth directly?

This needs to happen in the normal text flow (unless you want to use more dirty 
tricks)

\startsetups [continue]
   \strut\hbox to \textwidth
     {\hfill\mathematics{\blacktriangleright\blacktriangleright}\quad}
\stopsetups

\def\LetsCheckItOut
   {\dowithnextbox 
{\ifdim\dimexpr\pagetotal+\ht\nextbox+\dp\nextbox+\lineheight\relax>\pagegoal
         \endgraf\nobreak\setups[continue]\page
       \fi
       \box\nextbox}
    \vbox}


\starttext

\dorecurse{40}
   {\LetsCheckItOut
      {\framed
         [width=\textwidth,height=3em,align={middle,lohi}]
         {\hfil\CONTEXT--\recurselevel\hfil}}}

\stoptext

Not only it works, it's also  very nice:
thanks Hans.

(
I know that
/\newdimen\RightMarginWidth \RightMarginWidth=\rightmarginwidth
/it's strange (after all i use \footerheight at the next line...).

Some time ago i wrote something like
\/MyDimension/=0.87\/rightmarginwidth ///
During some corrections/enhancement  i made a mistake and i wrote
\/rightmarginwidth =0.87/\/MyDimension///

A nightmare.

When i feel insecure (will i use this dimensions as readonly or 
read/write variables ?)
i prefer a safe copy
(in this case i'm sure that i use \footerheight as a readonly var).
)

read-only; then adapt themselves, so there is no need to store their values; can 
  even be dangerous since they may change odd/even

Ok, that's right, many thanks.

For me the following works fine:

%%%% begin
\usetypescript [adobekb][\defaultencoding]
\setupbodyfont[pos]

%% for helvetica uncomment this
\usetypescript[helvetica][\defaultencoding]
\setupbodyfont[helvetica,ss,12pt]

%% for times uncomment this
%\usetypescript[times][\defaultencoding]
%\setupbodyfont[times,12pt]

\starttext
\input knuth
\bigskip

And this should be some maths with PostScript fonts (but not with 
Helvetica\dots).
\startformula
{a \over b} = {c \over d} \iff ad - bc = 0, \qquad \int_0^{2\pi} 
\sin(x)^2dx =\pi, \qquad {\rm e}^{{\rm i}\pi} + 1 = 0.
\stopformula

\stoptext
%%%% end

Somehow, unlike Adam's suggestion, I can't replace [\defaultencoding] by [8r].

Cheers: OK

Hello Steffen,

do you have psfnss (LaTeX) installed?
