Ah. Ok that explains it. This means that in latex/fontspec it works with \setmainfont[Renderer=basic]{...}.
I guess so (if basic == basemode). There's nothing wrong with basemode in such cases.
thanks Ulrike and Hans for the comments. It works fine with Renderer=basic, although I'm not sure what the side effects of switching from Full to Basic will be (it's not a particularly well documented feature, at least in the fontspec manual).
In most cases a basic mode is good enough when you want to do intercharacter spacing as it makes only sense for scripts that have isolated glyphs (even ligatures are to be avoided).
Sorry for posting to the wrong list; I was thinking about putting this in the Lua list, but I remembered someone saying anything Lua related is welcome on the ConTeXt list as well... which it probably is, but LuaLa(!)TeX is a different story, obviously. I'll try to gather more info on the renderer issue, wait a day or two for more comments here, and then will post the problem to the Lua list.
it's no problem at all posting here, it's just that you get more respons when there is a context example given Hans ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | voip: 087 875 68 74 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl -----------------------------------------------------------------
