Re: [NTG-context] Typesetting hebrew in a table...

Hello Taco, thank you so much. - Indeed this looks good! The option with ‘verytolerant,stretch’ works but does not look that nice, some words are really far from each other… So the way to go is “{r2l,right}” Thanks! Willi

Hi all,

my brother is studying Ifrith and wants to have a dictionary. The idea is to typeset left German and right Ifrith in a /bTABLE…\eTABLE environment.

When trying to typeset the Ifrith text is not broken into lines correctly i.e. it is leaping into the cell reserved for the German text. — How to correct this behaviour?

Either use:

\setupTABLE[column][2][align={r2l,right},width=42mm]

or:

\setupTABLE[column][2][align={r2l,verytolerant,stretch},width=42mm]

since a bare ‘r2l’ is like “normal” except for the writing direction.

Best wishes, Taco
