Text replacement - "pragma-ade.com" to "pragma-ade.nl"
* '''Windows''': Running Mark IV under Windows is the same as on Unix, but see [[Running_Mark_IV#In_case_of_trouble|below]] for a installation hints for the 'spaces in names' problem that seem to affect Windows users more often than other platforms.
* '''Debian''': Mark IV suggests the tex-gyre package ([[TeX Gyre- Old Content]]), not distributed currently under Debian due to licensing issues (see [[Debian installation]] )
=== Special notes (TL 2010): ===
== Generating and updating formats ==
Before first use and after each update to either the [[contextConTeXt]] distribution or the [[luatex]] executable you will have to regenerate the formats. The manual command for that is:
context --make cont-en
This will generate a new Mark IV format with the English interface. Without an explicit format argument, it will generate four formats: Mark IV cont-en, Matk IV cont-nl, luatex+mptopdf, and luatex+plain.
Starting with 2011, formats are automatically (re)generated by `context myfile.tex` when it believes it isnecessary to do so. Assuming Specifically: assuming the format already exists, automatic regeneration takes places whenever the ConTeXt version of the luatex version do not match the ones in the pre-existing format. Manual patches of the core files still require manual regeneration of the formats.
The generated formats are stored inside the texmf cache.
== Experimental speedup ==
In addition to standard [[luatex]] we provide [[luajittex]] which uses just in time compilation to speed up processing. The speedup is mostly due to the faster virtual machine. The exact speedup depends on the tex/lua ratio and we measured speedups between 10% and 40%. You force this engine with
context --jit ....
Alternatively you can put
<texcode>
% engine=luajittex
</texcode>
on top of your main document source.
== Using fonts ==
The <code>OSFONTDIR</code> environment variable should contain the paths where the system fonts must be looked for.
See [[Fonts in LuaTexLuaTeX#Getting access to the system fonts]]
== Downloaded files ==
