Hello Luigi, your solution is better...but doesn't work completely : the first page is correct, the second is not, and after this one, the end of the document is correctly formatted... hum... Very strange and annoying...

Hello, MKII contains a macro \enordinaldaynumber which I don't find in MKIV. My main question: how can I setup the date to display "23\high{rd} Sep, 2011"? Thank you, Mojca

double line spacing in list (table of contents, publication list)
by Stefan Müller 02 Oct '11

02 Oct '11

Hi list, how can I get double line spacing in the table of contents and in the publication list? I tried "\setupcombinedlist[content][after=\blank]" but this produces to much vertical spacing. "\setupinterlinespace[big]" doesn't influence those lists. I'm using 201100920 00:09 MKIV standalone. Thanks in advance for any help! Stefan.

Visual debugging
by Otso Helenius 01 Oct '11

Hi, I'm in a need for more visual debugging aids. I tried the supp-vis module, but it did not give enough cues. I guess the ruledhbox is bound by ascender and descender height vertically, but I'd like to see also the cap height and x-height lines. Is it possible? Plus, is it possible to display the individual box around each letter similar to Knuth's TeXBook page 65? Best regards, Otso Helenius

handling fonts with missing math (was: math signs in itemize)

Independent of everything else that has been said in that thread: wouldn't it be nice to simply fall back on Latin Modern for math when some font doesn't provide accompanying math glyphs instead of giving up in the middle of the run? Of course that will give suboptimal result (in particular everything inside $math$ will be in LM as opposed to original font), but at least it won't complain about a missing $\bullet$ and one can always use $\frac{\text{1}}{\text{2}}$ or something similar :).
