Re: [NTG-context] setupinteraction and macroexpansion

Hello,

I'm a bit lost with macro expansion here. I try to use some macros to set the title (and subject) of the PDF document. The attached minimal example shows what I want to achieve.

I tried def, edef, gdef, define, explicit expand, expandoneafter, etc. etc. without any success. Whatever I do, the title field in the PDF metadata always contains the raw "\date..." command instead of the formatted date.

Any suggestions?

You can’t use \date (or any other unexpandable command) in an expandable context. Wolfgang
