Sorry to bother you Hans, but the macro is not working as expected...
I can see the cropped text (\underbar + special symbols) and there is an hyphen symbol in the text only example.
I've added the example code I used for tests with \limitatetext and \doboundtext.
\def\limitatefirstline#1#2#3% {\hbox\bgroup\strut \setbox\scratchbox\hbox{#1}% \ifdim\wd\scratchbox>#2\relax \setbox\scratchbox\hbox{#3}% \hsize#2\relax \advance\hsize-\wd\scratchbox \setbox\scratchbox\vbox{\forgetall\veryraggedright#1}% \setbox\scratchbox\vsplit\scratchbox to \lineheight \vbox {\unvbox\scratchbox \global\setbox\plusone\lastbox \global\setbox\plusone\hbox{\unhbox\plusone}}% \box\plusone\removeunwantedspaces#3% \else #1% \fi \egroup}
of course there must be something to break (not possible with the non letters, so there you either need to add \hskip0pt's or do real clipping
I'll try to understand your code later (make no sense at 30° and I need to read again about the \lastbox trick and unboxing). The text will be generated from XML source, so there is no problem in inserting something (although clipping would be the cleaner solution). Later.... So again many thanks! Greetings, Peter
