attempt to index local 'fontbase' (a nil value) #7

Closed gbarnich closed 11 years ago

gbarnich commented 11 years ago

Hi,

With the old version, I had quite good results when running tex4ebook. Just a couple of errors some of which I could solve just by editing the epub file, https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/35238591/currentalgebra.epub After syncing a couple of days ago in order to be able to run tidy, I get the following error message:

tex4ebook -t -f epub3 currentalgebra.tex ...ich/Library/texmf/tex/latex/tex4ebook/list-fonts.lua:44: attempt to index local 'fontbase' (a nil value)

All help much appreciated ...

Hello, I pushed patch, could you please try it?

gbarnich commented 11 years ago

Hi,

It works again, thanks a lot ! Thanks also for providing this program, it is exactly what I was looking for for some time now. I will continue to play with it and hope I can systematically produce nice epub3 files from my papers and lecture notes.

Hello, I am happy that it works for you now and that it is useful for you. This bug was caused by my new module for loading fonts. This module depends on luaotfload font database. Did you ever compile some document using opentype fonts and lualatex? Regards, Michal

Hi Michal,

I just tried lualatex on the document and it runs without troubles, https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/35238591/currentalgebra.log however I do not think I used it with opentypefonts ...

in case you are interested in the type of errors I get: when I run tex4ebook -c hej -t -f epub3 currentalgebra.tex on the file https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/35238591/currentalgebra.tex the log file is https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/35238591/currentalgebra%202.log while the -t option produces the following error messages : https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/35238591/tidyerrors.txt and epubcheck gives https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/35238591/epubcheck.txt (final result https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/35238591/currentalgebra%202.epub )

Hi Glenn,

tex4ht doesn't support opentype fonts, even with lualatex op xelatex, you must use type1 or metafont fonts. I have some experimental package for fontspec support, but it probably doesn't support current fontspec version.

But in future, it should be possible to include opentype fonts to epub files, I have only to figure out, how to use luaotfload font database to find font files.

Regarding your example, you should add \title and \author commands to your document, even if you use custom title page instead of \maketitle, because these commands are used to fill some document metadata. You should also use \tableofcontents, it is mandatory (in fact, even simple documents without sections and chapters must use table of contents to conform with epub standard...)

Big problem seems to be citations, every bibitem creates element like .... and this causes epubcheck error as colons are prohibited in id values. Maybe it can be solved, or maybe it will be easier to remove colons form bibliographic references :(

Error with missing mathml tags are caused by \usepackage{pdfsync}, it is incompatible with tex4ht. After commenting this package, only id errors caused by colons in citation keys show up with epubcheck.

Regards, Michal

Hi Michal,

Thanks for pointing out what to do about the errors. All are gone now, except that at the very end there seems to be one remaining for the tidy option and epubcheck. Unfortunately, this prevents opening with either readium in google chrome or azardi ...

Hi Michal,

Giving only one author seems to have solved the last problem as well, at least for the tidy command ... now I just have to figure out the remaining epubcheck errors

Thanks a lot !
