Dear list, when I stumble upon a slightly overhanging line (where it's not allowed to hyphenate the hanging word and putting it on next line leaves huge whitespaces), decreasing letterspacing in that line seems like a good idea, and I manually insert \kerncharacters commands to do the trick. Here's a MWE for the purpose of demonstration:
% ConTeXt code \setuppapersize[A5] \setupbackgrounds[text] [rightframe=on,framecolor=red,rulethickness=0.1pt] %right margin line
\setupalign[hz,hanging] % microtypography enabled \definefontfeature[default][default][protrusion=quality,expansion=quality]
\definetypeface[mainface][rm][specserif][Linux Libertine O] [default] \setupbodyfont[mainface,14pt]
\mainlanguage[russian] \setupindenting[yes,medium,first]
\starttext
{\kerncharacters[-0.018] Здесь будет длинный-предлинный текст, \mbox{в~коем}} никак нельзя перенести строку. Запрещено { \kerncharacters[-0.008] разрывать телефонные номера, например, \mbox{(000)1234-5678}}, многозначные числа и дефисные написания. \stoptext
Is the a way for automating such negative tracking?
I seem to remember seeing a demo (either by Hans or Idris) for Arabic typesetting where some optimizations were performed after the linebreaks. I wonder if similar approach could be used here.
that assumes features in the font that can make text run wider or narrower easier is to use \setupalign[stretch,tolerant] -- ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl -----------------------------------------------------------------
