Unfortunately vertical typesetting is not supported by ConTeXt. That's a big pity.
If horizontal typesetting is fine, this little working example with furigana might give you some hints. Hiragino Mincho Pro should be installed by Default on MacOS.
\enableregime[utf] % enable unicoded input
\definefontfamily [JapaneseFont] [rm] [hiraginominchopro]
\setupruby[location=top,voffset=-1.6ex, ]
\starttext \JapaneseFont

Hi all,
Does anyone have a simple setup of fonts to write a small Japanese document (possibly with furagana) ? I am using MacOS and I have several Japanese fonts on the system. I have some old examples which do not typeset correctly now, maybe because they use the old module simplefonts and commands such as \setcjkmainfont and friends.
Many thanks in advance: Otared ___________________________________________________________________________________ If your question is of interest to others as well, please add an entry to the Wiki!
