Ahoi,

I’ve one annoying problem with ConTeXt: all üs (small u umlauts) seem to be encoded as decomposed unicode or something like that, at least every ü breaks into u + garbage if I copy some text from a ConTeXt PDF to an app that doesn’t really support Unicode.

You are on macOS, right? In my experience it was usually Apple's technology to blame. Perfectly valid PDFs with proper accented characters would always end up with decomposed characters when copy-pasting. Even pdftotext did a better job. Mojca
