Hi,
attached is the result of running latest lmtx on
\definefontfeature[default][default][protrusion=quality,expansion=quality] \definefontfeature [default] [default] [threshold=20,expansion=quality]
\setupalign[hz] \setupbodyfont[lucidaot]
\starttext Gauss öppnade med denna studie ett helt nytt fält inom matematiken, det som handlar om \emph{elliptiska funktioner} och \emph{modulära former}. \stoptext
What happens with the space between the characters in "studie", that becomes "s tudie"? The spacing between some other characters are also off (ma tematiken), but not as much as in studie. It's a problem with Lucida Opentype which lacks kerning (I reported the same problem a while ago).

Hi, thank you Wolfgang (I just realized I only sent my thank you to you privately)! Your threshold=20 solved that particular case. But look at the following example: \definefontfeature[default][default][threshold=20,protrusion=quality,expansion=quality,lnum=yes,itlc=yes] \setupalign[hz,hanging,line,height] \definebodyfontenvironment[9bp][interlinespace=12bp] \setupbodyfont[lucidaot,9bp] \starttext Gränsvärde föreligger i en inre punkt i definitionsmängden om och endast om höger- och vänstergränsvärde existerar där och är lika. \stoptext I attach the output (latest lmtx). The word "endast" shows up as "endas t". So, what does this threshold do? I can play with the 20. If I change it to 5 it looks better here (not perfect), but my document is approx. 250 pages, so, I fear it will break somewhere else... I hope that this does not mean that the Lucida font turns out to be useless :( /Mikael
