I had a problem that kept me busy for a few hours. A \page command had no effect, the text just continued in the pdf.
The culprid turned out to be a hex 0x0C, a formfeed character. Once I removed them all was good. It got introduced by extracting the text from a PDF.
I realize my files should be "clean" of control characters and ConTexT should (maybe) not be stripping those characters. Then again, they serve no purpose in the document. So...
My question: Isn't some more resilience sensible so commands don't break? Or error messages?
a formfeed is acting like a newline \catcode\tabasciicode \spacecatcode \catcode\endoflineasciicode \endoflinecatcode \catcode\formfeedasciicode \endoflinecatcode \catcode\spaceasciicode \spacecatcode ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | www.pragma-ade.nl | www.pragma-pod.nl -----------------------------------------------------------------
