Hi all,
With the latest beta, the issue with the size of the gentium font is solved but till there is still an issue with the distance between "Hello" and "World" I tested this with the following example
\usetypescript[gentium] \starttext Hello \switchtobodyfont[gentium] World
I saw that too. \switchtobodyfont is generating lots of spaces when it is called in horizontal mode. They come from the \definetypescriptprefix lines in the tex-gyre typescript (type-otf.mkiv):
\definetypescriptprefix [f:pagella] [pagella] \definetypescriptprefix [f:palatino] [pagella]
et cetera. Each lines adds two extra blanks: one is the space after the first command, the second is the newline after the second command.
we can try to ignore lines, but even then, it's better to do: \usetypescript[gentium] \setupbodyfont[gentium] \setupbodyfont[whatever] \starttext Hello {\switchtobodyfont[gentium] World ... } this is because \switchtobodyfont is doing a lot and is supposed to be used grouped, so performance wise it's better first to trigger it once 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 -----------------------------------------------------------------
