HZ with latest ConTeXt
Hello, I've just seen the page about hanging and hz on the wiki, so I've tried the example for lm: \starttext \input tufte \page \usetypescript[serif,sans,mono][hanging][normal] \setupalign[hanging] \usetypescript[modern-base][\defaultencoding] \setupbodyfont[reset] \setupbodyfont[modern] \input tufte \page \usetypescript[serif,sans,mono][hz][highquality] \setupalign[hanging,hz] %\usetypescript[modern-base][\defaultencoding] %\setupbodyfont[reset] %\setupbodyfont[modern] \input tufte \stoptext I can get hanging but no hz (no difference between 2nd and 3rd page). What is needed to get hz? Cheers, Peter -- http://pmrb.free.fr/contact/

What is needed to get hz?
This answer is not definitive but based only on my own experiences. 1) I was unable to get hz in some fonts. If I haven't missed anything relevant in extracting this from a large document, the following fragment gives me hz (and hanging/handling) in NimbusRomNo9L: \usetypescript[serif,sans,mono][handling][normal] \usetypescript[serif,sans,mono][hz][highquality] \setupalign[hanging,hz] \usetypescript[adobekb][\defaultencoding] \usetypescript[serif][postscript,courier,helvetica,times] [\defaultencoding,name] \setupbodyfont[Serif,13pt] 2) As hz is sometimes not obvious when viewed, I check the fonts in the resulting PDF to see if any are extended. Most PDF viewers list the fonts under File/Properties or similar or you can "pdffonts foo.pdf" at the command line. --Mike Bird

They might not be used with pdftex 1.40, which (from what I gathered reading the NEWS file) can adjust the local text transform matrix to do font extension. -Sanjoy `Not all those who wander are lost.' (J.R.R. Tolkien)

so, saying \pdfcompresslevel=0 and taking a look at the page streams may help Hans ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | fax: 038 477 53 74 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl -----------------------------------------------------------------
