[NTG-context] chinese characters in an itemize environment

Hi all, If I use: \startitemize[m,packed] \item 三个小矮人 (some chinese characters) \item Die drei Männlein im Walde \stopitemize I get more space between the number and the text in the chinese line as in the latin line. The difference is .3-.4em depending on the fonts. How can I avoid this? Greetings Lutz
