Hi Ursula,

There is many ways to do this.

1) First case : you have some greek text on a column and its translation on the second columns after some text in German on a single column (plain page).

The best way is to use the TwoColumns command and a preamble where German, Ancient greek, fonts, paragraphs, usw, are defined.
You may have to set the width of each paragraph. Note that if Germain is the main language, you have to use a 'fallback' command to get some Greek text, and you have to set a font which allow to print Greek text. You may try this :

% Setup the main language and Greek
\setuplanguage[de][patterns={de,agr}]
\mainlanguage[de]
% Set the Greek font (use your usual Greek font)
\definefallbackfamily[mainface][serif][Theano Didot][preset=range:greek, it={Old Standard Italic}, force=yes]
\definefontfamily [mainface] [sans] [FreeSans] [rscale=0.8]
\setupbodyfont[mainface]
% You have to set protrusion parameters and the text width - Attention ! There is no heritage from paragraph to another paragraph
\setupalign[hz,hanging]
% If the tolerance setting is 'verystrict', then you can get some issue in the Greek printing
\setuptolerance[strict]
% Here you set 2 columns and their alignment. You can play with points (pt). Here the Column 1 is in 250pt, italics et and left aligned.
\defineparagraphs[TwoColumns][n=2, align={hz,hanging}]
\setupparagraphs[TwoColumns][1][width=250pt, style=italic, align=left]
\starttext
\startTwoColumns
Ὅτι μὲν ὑμεῖς, ὦ ἄνδρες Ἀθηναῖοι, 
πεπόνθατε ὑπὸ τῶν ἐμῶν κατηγόρων, 
οὐκ οἶδα· ἐγὼ δ' οὖν καὶ αὐτὸς ὑπ' 
αὐτῶν ὀλίγου ἐμαυτοῦ ἐπελαθόμην, 
οὕτω πιθανῶς ἔλεγον
\TwoColumns
Was wohl euch, ihr Athener, meine Ankläger angetan haben, weiß ich nicht: ich meinesteils aber hätte ja selbst beinahe über sie meiner selbst vergessen; so überredend haben sie gesprochen. 
\stopTwoColumns
\stoptext

2) Second situation : you want to print a translation on the same page (say the even page) as the original Greek text, with the commentary (or whatever) on the odd page. I fear there is no way to do this at the time (that was impossible with CTX early in 2016). I didn't retry these former weeks...

I hope this helps, as Pablo says !

When the text spans several pages, there is a problem:

\defineparagraphs[TwoColumns][n=2]
\setupparagraphs[TwoColumns][1][width=250pt, style=italic, align=left]
\starttext
\startTwoColumns

Re: Wrtiting in two languages

[Jean-Pierre Delange]

High Peter,

There is somehow a problem with a dorecurse command setting up on '1000' !
If I remember well, Ursula was in a want of a trick which allow to print Greek/German parallel text only time to time, inside of a regular page. To doing so, I've scrutinized the solution I gave, and I don't see the error you have mentionned. Would you please explain how this sample may work : https://mailman.ntg.nl/pipermail/ntg-context/2012/068387.html ? IMHO it is not as simple that it could be.
See below the same sample I gave with a dorecurse command :

% Set the main language and Greek
\setuplanguage[de][patterns={de,agr}]
\mainlanguage[de]
% Set the Greek font (use your usual Greek font)
\definefallbackfamily[mainface][serif][Theano Didot][preset=range:greek, it={Old Standard Italic}, force=yes]
\definefontfamily [mainface] [sans] [FreeSans] [rscale=0.8]
\setupbodyfont[mainface]
% You have to set protrusion parameters and the text width - Attention ! There is no heritage from paragraph to another paragraph
\setupalign[hz,hanging]
% If the tolerance setting is 'verystrict', then you can get some issue in the Greek printing
\setuptolerance[strict]
% Here you set 2 columns and thei alignment. You can play with points (pt). Here the Column 1 is in 250pt, regular et and left aligned.
\defineparagraphs[TwoColumns][n=2, align={hz,hanging}]
\setupparagraphs[TwoColumns][1][width=250pt, style=regular, align=right]
\starttext
\dorecurse{10}{I. Qua vos ratione, o viri Athenienses, affecerint accusatores mei, nescio: me certe sic affecerunt, ut mei ipsius paene oblitus fuerim, usque eo ad persuadendum accommodate dicebant. 

How you, O Athenians, have been affected by my accusers, I cannot tell; but I know that they almost made me forget who I was—so persuasively did they speak; nd yet they have hardly uttered a word of truth.

\startTwoColumns
Ὅτι μὲν ὑμεῖς, ὦ ἄνδρες Ἀθηναῖοι, πεπόνθατε ὑπὸ τῶν ἐμῶν κατηγόρων, οὐκ οἶδα· ἐγὼ δ' οὖν καὶ αὐτὸς ὑπ' αὐτῶν ὀλίγου ἐμαυτοῦ ἐπελαθόμην, οὕτω πιθανῶς ἔλεγον;καίτοι ἀληθές γε, ὡς ἔπος εἰπεῖν, οὐδὲν εἰρήκασιν.

\stopTwoColumns

Je ne sais, Athéniens, quelle impression mes accusateurs ont faite sur vous. Pour moi, en les entendant, peu s’en est fallu que je ne me méconnusse moi-même, tant ils ont parlé d’une manière persuasive ; et cependant, à parler franchement, ils n’ont pas dit un mot qui soit véritable.}

TwoColumns in two different languages, with alternate text on even and odd page.

[Jean-Pierre Delange]

Hi Arthur and Hans,

I make a statement on a part of the Arthur's reply (" there are no real-life examples of documents that use it") : in fact, there are rare examples of such printing materials : scholar editing and printing of Ancient texts are mainly (if I am right) such printing material (including Ancient Armenian or Georgian liturgic hymns). 

An example of such a book : on the even page you read a 'twocolumns' text (say : Greek text with its Latin translation) with there own page setting, including Stephanus apparatus in the footer, and several levels of footnotes within the same footer. Commentaries (in English, French, German, usw) and the like are on the odd page. The average (or regular) situation seems to be less complicated : Greek or Latin text on the even page and translation on the odd page. With Pablo Rodriguez help (actually, this is mainly Pablo's work) I have tried to figure such a goal. But before setting up the even/odd page, there is an issue which one has to fix: the text on two columns is well fitted on the first page, but not on the following pages. How to fix this issue with Greek text on the left column and Latin Text on the right one ? See the mismatch between texts on the second page in the sample below .
Thank you very much for your remarks and advices.

It was just to show, that there is no page break...

Sorry, I missed that. My solution is only for whole pages.

It's no error, you just don't get page breaks inside the \startTwoColumns
\stopTwoColumns blocs. My example was just an MWE to show you that.


> Would you please explain how this sample may work :

- create pages for first language, page size is size of column
- create pages for second language with same page size
- create new document with pages of first language at the left and pages
  of second language at the right (inclusion with \externalfigure)

Below is an example that should work with the latest beta. I introduced 
two new keys 'spacebefore' and 'spaceinbetween' for notes. These are 
needed when we have multiple note categories. In mixed columns this is 
supported. In single column mode only with luatex experimental (so 
patience is needed, but no one asked for this feature anyway).

Re: TwoColumns in two different languages, with alternate text on even and odd page.

[Jean-Pierre Delange]

Hi Hans,

Thank you very much Hans for your help. I'll soon try your code and I'll report sooner as possible.
A sample of some work I've referred to, using two columns, a rich criticus apparatus in greek, latin and georgian, is : "Les Hymnes de la Résurrection. I. Hymnographie liturgique géorgienne, introduction, traduction et annotation des textes du Sinaï 18 (Sources liturgiques, 3), Paris, 2000" (see here : https://rbecs.org/2015/05/06/hr/#more-3249)
Unfortunately, the book is not under my hand.

JP

Commentaries (in English, French, German, usw) and the like are on the odd page. The average (or regular) situation seems to be less complicated : Greek or Latin text on the even page and translation on the odd page. With Pablo Rodriguez help (actually, this is mainly Pablo's work) I have tried to figure such a goal. But before setting up the even/odd page, there is an issue which one has to fix: the text on two columns is well fitted on the first page, but not on the following pages. How to fix this issue with Greek text on the left column and Latin Text on the right one ? See the mismatch between texts on the second page in the sample below .
> Thank you very much for your remarks and advices.

Below is an example that should work with the latest beta. I introduced 
two new keys 'spacebefore' and 'spaceinbetween' for notes. These are 
needed when we have multiple note categories. In mixed columns this is 
supported. In single column mode only with luatex experimental (so 
patience is needed, but no one asked for this feature anyway).

Hans,

I reported an issue about the distance in the before option from
\setupnote not being honoured when using paragraphed notes (many times,
being the last one
https://mailman.ntg.nl/pipermail/ntg-context/2014/077280.html).

In the attached PDF file, pages 1, 4 and 5 (maybe page 2 should be
included in that series) don’t respect
\setupnote[critical][before={\blank[big]}].

So my question is: would the key "spacebefore" fix this issue?

Many thanks for your help,

Pablo

you could try it ... with paragraph notes you'd better then use a bit 
larger spacebefore because rendering them is kind of fuzzy (i.e. the 
paragraph can only be rendered after the page is split so there is some 
guess work involved (which can result in the blank space begin used as 
overflow)

Re: TwoColumns in two different languages, with alternate text on even and odd page.

[Jean-Pierre Delange]

Hi Arthur,

Thanks a lot for your advise. I'm looking forward to the mechanism you're talking to (streams) and I don't give up for testing a useful kind of typesetting where the goal is to place 2 or 3 parallel paragraphs into columns on the even page (e. g. mainly greek & latin & modern language) with 'criticus apparatus' on different levels in the footnotes, with commentary on the odd page.

It seems that this combination with specific rulles for the even page (where the 2 or more parallel paragraphs are defined) aims some complex difficulties (because we have to synchronize the odd page text in facing the left page's text). There are some examples with LaTeX reledmac commands here : https://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/reledmac/examples (work done by Maieul Rouquette and alii). 

I've founded enumerations of such issues in order to compose a text on a double page with 'reledpar' and 'reledmac' packages in LaTeX here : http://distrib-coffee.ipsl.jussieu.fr/pub/mirrors/ctan/macros/latex/contrib/reledmac/reledpar.pdf (the document is 126 pages long). And for 'reledmac' package : ftp://ftp.dante.de/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/reledmac/reledmac.pdf (422 pages).

I'll try to make some 'meaningful feature' step by step, in order to clarify what kind of issues we are confronting to. At the moment, the main issue would be to fix the parralel text (greek/latin) on the same columns on following pages in a page with footnotes (because the greek text - or latin - don't stay at the right place).

Well, whatever the whole problem is, thank you very much to help me to clarify the situation.

Re: TwoColumns in two different languages, with alternate text on even and odd page.

[Jean-Pierre Delange]

Hi Arthur, Hans, Pablo and other brave ConteXT users !

The only development I've found on the subject matter of this thread is from Petr Březina (but in French), with some examples of historical printing material (like Novum Testamentum Graece et Latine and M. Tullius Cicero, Pro A. Licinio Archia poeta oratio. Rede für den Dichter A. Licinius Archias. Lateinisch / Deutsch. Übersetzt und herausgegeben von Otto Schönberger, bibliographisch ergänzte Ausgabe 1990, printed in Germany 1996, Reclam, Stuttgart, ISBN 3-15-001268-6.

Petr Březina works with pure TeX, in order to imitate F. Didot in printing a bilingual text on 2 parallel paragraphs (see "Tâche n° 4", within his test, page 12).
At the end of this file, there are some examples (see specially pages 26,27,28) : https://zimbra.free.fr/service/home/~/bilingue.pdf?auth=co&loc=fr&id=253997&part=2

Re: TwoColumns in two different languages, with alternate text on even and odd page.

[Jean-Pierre Delange]

Hi again Marcello,

I was somehow busy and forgot that I made a promise to give you a better answer than I did about bilingual texts on two columns. If you need only to print some simple texts on two columns, there is no major issues. Problems occur when you want to print two texts in different languages, with a complex criticus apparatus.

But I've forgotten that (when I first began to work with ConTeXt, under the Pablo Rodriguez's eye), I was looking for a mechanism which allow to print greek/latin original text on the left column with a translation within the right column and a few series of footnotes in the footer. Notes dealing with the original text and different notes for the translation, given that if the original text was on the even page (left), a commentary might be print on the right page. The situation is clear : an even page with original language and translation (on two separate columns), and criticus apparatus in  the footer; an odd page which contains some material like a commentary. It is without saying that the translation has to follow the original text line by line, not in a strictly way, but almost, when the odd page may be much more flexible. I know there are some technical ways under LaTeX (Maieul Rouquette made some work on that), and with non-free software but I had forgotten that Wolfgang made a simple proposal with the Stream mechanism. I have to work on that, but I am currently working on other jobs.

See what Wolfgang wrote in the end of 2016 here on the wiki : http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Columns#Streams

There are two non-free softwares, just as CET (Critical Edition Typesetter) : 
http://karas.ch/cet/cetinfo.htm

or Classical Text Editor :

Hi Marcello,

As you say "this feature could be really interesting", but as far as I know, there are many issues to deal with, in order to print 2 columns on the same page with different languages (say : greek and latin). This is not only because of two languages (say : english and russian, or greek and german), but because such work needs some editing datas, like footnotes, or more complex type of single line footnotes. I'll give some samples in a few hours. I've written once to Maieul Rouquette (author of (xe)LaTeX and in charge or reledpar (http://distrib-coffee.ipsl.jussieu.fr/pub/mirrors/ctan/macros/latex/contrib/reledmac/reledpar.pdf) and reledmac (ftp://ftp.dante.de/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/reledmac/reledmac.pdf) LaTeX packages for asking him about complex "criticus apparatus" in edition issues for Classics. Pablo Rodriguez has a better knowledfge as me on these topics. 
In fact, there is currently no strictly satisfying way to deal with different texts with ConTeXt on even and odd page (or on the same page with two columns), except if there is no need of footnotes (or criticus apparatus), because some mismatches between texts with the second page. But, there is possibly some solutions with XML and CTX (which I didn't try) ?

Dear Hans, 
I am also intersted in this issue. 
In the last years I am dealing with a multi-language technical lexicon. 
Hence, different languages refer to different columns, and if the languages are three or four, then it is better to go with two pages side-by-side. 
Nevertheless this seems a problem also in LaTeX redelpar (multiple columns are not supported). 
I tried to manage it with \linetable but without success ( https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/380923/synchronise-data-spanning-over-two-side-by-side-pages-in-context ) 
I think this feature could be really interesting because, according to my knowledge, ConTeXt is at present the best way to manage the publishing of XML data. 
Hence, this could be a useful tool to publish large sets of data. 
Thank you in advance

Objet: Re: [NTG-context] TwoColumns in two different languages, with alternate text on even and odd page.


Dear Hans, 
I am also intersted in this issue. 
In the last years I am dealing with a multi-language technical lexicon. 
Hence, different languages refer to different columns, and if the languages are three or four, then it is better to go with two pages side-by-side. 
Nevertheless this seems a problem also in LaTeX redelpar (multiple columns are not supported). 
I tried to manage it with \linetable but without success ( https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/380923/synchronise-data-spanning-over-two-side-by-side-pages-in-context ) 
I think this feature could be really interesting because, according to my knowledge, ConTeXt is at present the best way to manage the publishing of XML data. 
Hence, this could be a useful tool to publish large sets of data. 
Thank you in advance

Re: TwoColumns in two different languages, with alternate text on even and odd page.

[Jean-Pierre Delange]

Dear List,

I've made 2 mistakes : 
1) a false link to a PDF text;
2) Giving a large PDF text.
There is the link to Petr Březina paper on TeX and bilingual editions, that I've previously mentionned :
http://mujweb.cz/petr-brezina/libelli/bilingue.pdf

Certainly, as Wolfgang put it, there is probably some ways to achieve the goal mentionned in the title of this thread : 2 parallel texts synchronized on the same page, in 2 different languages. Maybe through the "stream" macros.

Dear List,
I fear I made a mistake with this paper's address : https://zimbra.free.fr/service/home/~/bilingue.pdf?auth=co&loc=fr&id=253997&part=2
Please, read it as attached file.
Best,
JP

Hi Arthur, Hans, Pablo and other brave ConteXT users !

The only development I've found on the subject matter of this thread is from Petr Březina (but in French), with some examples of historical printing material (like Novum Testamentum Graece et Latine and M. Tullius Cicero, Pro A. Licinio Archia poeta oratio. Rede für den Dichter A. Licinius Archias. Lateinisch / Deutsch. Übersetzt und herausgegeben von Otto Schönberger, bibliographisch ergänzte Ausgabe 1990, printed in Germany 1996, Reclam, Stuttgart, ISBN 3-15-001268-6.

Petr Březina works with pure TeX, in order to imitate F. Didot in printing a bilingual text on 2 parallel paragraphs (see "Tâche n° 4", within his test, page 12).
At the end of this file, there are some examples (see specially pages 26,27,28) : https://zimbra.free.fr/service/home/~/bilingue.pdf?auth=co&loc=fr&id=253997&part=2

  That’s not what I meant.  There is an experimental mechanism in
ConTeXt called streams that could be part of the solution to your
problem, but there are no publicly available documents that make use of
it.  The commands for creating and managing streams are in the file
page-str.mkiv; there are short examples at the end.

  I mention this because this is typically the kind of issue that need
serious input from users in order to become a meaningful feature.

	Best,
