The file seems to typeset almost perfectly with mkii, even without \setuplayout[grid=yes] \overfullrule=10pt.
a simpler test file is \showframe \mainlanguage[uk] \starttext \placefigure[left]{}{} \input zapf \stoptext there can be several reasons for the difference (btw, uk patterns cannot hyphenate widely) - different fonts i.e. different glyphs dimensions and spacing (lm opentype is not the same as lm type1) - different hyphenation algorithm (mostly the same as traditional tex, but some limitations and optimizations removed) 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 -----------------------------------------------------------------
