I'am trying to convert a doc to ConTeXt, and I'm also trying to make it
as close to the original as possible. How do the command below
translate to ConTeXt?
1. \geometry{a4paper, textwidth=5.5in, textheight=8.5in,
marginparsep=7pt, marginparwidth=.6in}
2. \scriptsize => \tfxx?
3. \LARGE and \Large
4. \Huge and \HUGE
thanks

In Latex, these sizes are set as part of the documentclass, or size10.clo, size12.clo, etc. So, the most reliable way to reconstruct the visual appearance will be to figure out what sizes they correspond to in latex, and then set the context font environmet to match the latex values.

The correct setup is \setuppapersize[A4][A4].

Sorry. I always use letter paper, and was extrapolating in my head :-) Aditya ___________________________________________________________________________________ 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] 8+ messages in thread
