Tables, footnotes and references

Tables, footnotes and references

[Maarten Sneep]

Hi,

I want to make a table with some footnotes belonging to that table. As 
an extra, one of the footnotes needs to be referenced to multiple times:

bla    bla    bla*
bla    bla    bla*
bla    bla    bla

*blabla

Questions:
  - which of the table formatting commands in ConTeXt is most suitable 
for this?
  - Can I just use a footnote command to create footnotes for a table 
(or do I need to do something
    special?)
  - How do I reference a footnote (or get the symbol for a specific 
footnote)?

Regards,

Maarten Sneep

mptopdf.tex: \topskip

[Hartmut Henkel]

If one converts a file x.mp into pdf, e. g. a small file x.mp

beginfig(1) labeloffset:=0; label.urt("Hello", origin); endfig; end

by the command mptopdf, the lower part of the word "Hello" in the
resulting x-1.pdf file is missing, it's below the Bounding Box!

Reason for this is, that in mptopdf.tex, macro \processMPfile, the
\topskip is not set to zero. I included a \topskip=0pt before the line
with \setbox0=..., and the resulting x-1.pdf now has the word "Hello"
within its bounding box, which I believe should be the correct behavior.
And also Acroread now shows the complete word.

Best Regards

Hartmut

Thanks a lot, Hans, But it doesn't break anything? E. g.

%D ..., the graphic is positioned in
%D such a way that accuracy in \PDF\ xforms is guaranteed.

I don't want to spoil it. :-)

Greetings Hartmut
