Hi Pavneet, I do not know which font/kind of font you intend to use. So provided the font is a otf-type the following works: \setupbodyfont[times,rm,12pt] \definefontfeature[oldstyle][sript=latin,onum=yes] \starttext \addff{oldstyle} 1234567890 A Pause---between yes and no. 1234567890 A Pause---between yes and no. \stoptext Willi On 30 Nov 2011, at 20:19, Pavneet Arora wrote:
Okay another anomaly: I used the example in the FAQs to try to set the feature across the entire document, which is really what I want.

In a manuscript length project, I wouldn't want to get {\os } for each local instance. Now, what I have noticed was that the small caps switch, \sc, seems to disable old-style numerals. Is this a typographic convention, i.e., that in a run of small caps one should not revert to old-style numerals? Is there a way of avoiding this assumption for a larger project? I sometimes have text set in small caps that as part of a project ID would have some numbers in it. In that case, I would like the old-style numerals to be used.
I again enclose a small example with output.
advTHANKSance.

I enclose a minimal example as well as the output. It would seem that the \os causes the m-dash to come out as three hyphens. Is this the expected behavior?
Write {\os 123…}, context use a special fontfeature set (with the name “just-os”) for old style figure where where kerning, text ligatures etc. are disabled.
