Subject: How to get the characters in the attached pdf file using ConTeXt
Date: Mon, 28 Jul 2003 14:21:32 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <67B86C4E-C0FE-11D7-A0E9-003065699FE0@ntlworld.ie> (raw)
Dear all,
I have sent this email twice already but return messages said that it
was too large and would be posted at the discretion of the
administrator. I had attached a sample file using only one word from
the original .pdf file in the hope that it would be small enough.
Obviously not! Apologies if I have broken protocol. This time I have
not included an attachment. Apologies again!
I could get the proper characters as seen in the attached sample file
using LaTeX with the preamble:
\usepackage{palatino}
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
\usepackage[applemac]{inputenc}
The result can be seen below. But I would like to achieve this in
ConTeXt (not necessarily with Palatino). Can anyone give me advice on
the setup commands needed. I have tried various ways but nothing has
worked so far. My ConTeXt input file looks like this without any of the
setups that I had been trying. I am using Gerben's installation on a
Mac G4 OS 10.2.6. Also what command do I need in order to use mac
inputencoding in ConTeXt? I think I saw it mentioned in one of the
manuals but I cannot find it again. Of course for the \dh and \k in
LaTeX I could not use Mac inputencoding.
Thank you very much in advance,
Charlie Doherty
