Hi,
Out of curiosity, I tried compiling the followingup manual with ConTeXt
LMTX 2024.09.25. I did not check the whole manual, but section 6 seems to
render fine as far as I can tell, up to two small issues (not sure whether
they are due to changes in ConTeXt or to font issues on my side):
* I had to replace NotoSansCJKtc-VF with the name of the font file
(NotoSansCJK-Regular.ttc) in followingup-directions.tex . (I suspect that
may be due to my system not having the ‘right’ font installed.
* The glyphs are not rotated in Figure 6.12. Figure 6.11 looks correct,
though.
So at least one of the methods mentioned in
followingup-directions.tex seems to work with the latest version of ConTeXt
LMTX.
Cheers,
Florent

I have the code listed above and I am wondering how I can get CJK text to be in a vertical form (along with Vietnamese. I know l2r as an option exists in startalignment, but there seems to not be a vertical equivalent for vertical text. How do I achieve this?
there is something mentioned in followingup-directions.tex
i removed top to bottom directions from luametatex because it made no sense; one cannot do vertical typesettign without also looking at the layout and other things
instead of directions we do rotation at the glyph level and such which has less interference and more flexible
but ... i haven't looked at it recently (could be broken by other features) as there is little demand for it
