Schmitz 0 siblings, 2 replies; 13+ messages in thread From: Jean Magnan de Bornier @ 2008-05-18 14:12 UTC (permalink / raw) To: ntg-context Hi all (especially Thomas) I have played these days with the last version of the "taspresent" presentation module, to see how it can be used as such and/or with emacs-muse. I have discovered that due to the \Maketitle macros, which did not exist in the first versions, it is quite easy to have a muse style and nearly everything works quite well. I use mkiv from minimals. I have a few concerns though: - On some of the styles, page numbering is like this: 1 of 10, 2 of 10, etc. Is there a way, as I have to write in french more often than not, to modify that in my tex file without changing the style file (which I prefer not to do)? - With the greenblue style the title page is produced with its layout, but no text appears on that page... - The embossed style doesn't compile, apparently due some missing font (Emblem); is it some rare font, and if not where can I find it? I have installed a file called "Emblem Regular.ttf" but that didn't change things; here is the error message (AucTeX): .................................. ERROR: Font \**Emblem**:=uhvb8r at 30pt not loadable: metric data not found or bad. --- TeX said --- <to be read again> \relax \dododefinefont ...ontspec {#2}\rawfontidentifier \let \localrelativefontsiz... l.1 ...t,top=\vss ,bottom=\vss ,frame=off]{\Emblem \color [c]{Made with C\CM... --- HELP --- You requested a family/series/shape/size combination that is totally unknown. There are two cases in which this error can occur: 1) You used the \size macro to select a size that is not available. 2) If you did not do that, go to your local `wizard' and complain fiercely that the font selection tables are corrupted! .................................. I will soon update the muse page on the wiki, but I wish these problems could be solved before :-) best -- Jean ___________________________________________________________________________________ If your question is of interest to others as well, please add an entry to the Wiki! maillist : ntg-context@ntg.nl / http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context webpage : http://www.pragma-ade.nl / http://tex.aanhet.net archive : https://foundry.supelec.fr/projects/contextrev/ wiki : http://contextgarden.net ___________________________________________________________________________________ ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 13+ messages in thread

OK, Hans suggested to use labeltexts; I'll have to learn how to use it. The basic idea seems to be to have something like this in the module: \setuplabeltext [\s!fr] [\v!of=de] and then use \v!of in the code, is that about right, Hans? Jean: in French, would you say "1 sur 10" or "1 de 10"? > - With the greenblue style the title page is produced with its > layout, but > no text appears on that page... I was going for a Zen-look... :-) Seriously: it works here, I get normal output for the title page - can you send a small test file? > > - The embossed style doesn't compile, apparently due some missing font > (Emblem); is it some rare font, and if not where can I find it? I > have > installed a file called "Emblem Regular.ttf" but that didn't change > things; here is the error message (AucTeX): > Ah Ok, that's because luaTeX doesn't use the tfm files, so it can't find this font. OK, I have a problem here and may need help. Two solutions are possible: 1. Use the same font via afm/pfb. This would mean I have to refer to the font like so: \beginLUATEX \definefontsynonym [BigBoss] [name:NimbusSanL-Bold] \definefont[Emblem] [BigBoss at 30pt] \endLUATEX However, there is a problem with this font; I get this error: </usr/local/texlive/2007/texmf-dist/fonts/type1/urw/helvetic/uhvb8a.pfb ! Emergency stop. <*> ./08_05_20_b.tex fclose: Bad file descriptor fclose: Bad file descriptor ! ==> Fatal error occurred, no output PDF file produced! Hans, Taco, any idea what's going wrong here? 2. Use an OpenType font instead; specifically the TeXGyreHeros. This would mean: \beginLUATEX \definefontsynonym [BigBoss] [name:TeXGyreHeros-Bold] \definefont[Emblem] [BigBoss at 30pt] \endLUATEX Problem here: this switch messes up the spacing; with all TeXGyre font, the graphic doesn't respect its position on the page. I'm not sure if it is the font or mkiv in general or MPlib. I'll have to investigate that and will look into it, but I can't promise that it will be very soon. Thanks for testing , all best Thomas ___________________________________________________________________________________ If your question is of interest to others as well, please add an entry to the Wiki! maillist : ntg-context@ntg.nl / http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context webpage : http://www.pragma-ade.nl / http://tex.aanhet.net archive : https://foundry.supelec.fr/projects/contextrev/ wiki : http://contextgarden.net ___________________________________________________________________________________ ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 13+ messages in thread

Works fine here, with latest trunk (#1270) and bleeding-edge private context beta. It could be caused by the AFM problem Hans has fixed just before the weekend. There are no valgrind warnings either, so we will have to wait and see if the next official context beta removes the problem for you as well.

In theory, you're right; the Slidetitle will only be typeset if we have the lecback background.

What do you think about this setup: > | \Slidetitle{blabla} => breaks page, invokes switch to "normal" | background, typesets argument as title above slide > | \Picturetitle{blabla} => breaks page, invokes switch to "picture" | background, typesets argument opposite picture > | So question is: is anyone using this (besides Jean and myself) and | relies on the current interface? That is really what I had in mind; so I could have different tags to call these different types of slides. But the first solution is already quite good! best, -- Jean ___________________________________________________________________________________ If your question is of interest to others as well, please add an entry to the Wiki! maillist : ntg-context@ntg.nl / http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context webpage : http://www.pragma-ade.nl / http://tex.aanhet.net archive : https://foundry.supelec.fr/projects/contextrev/ wiki : http://contextgarden.net ___________________________________________________________________________________ ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 13+ messages in thread
