Hi Hans,

Here is an example:

%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%

\mainlanguage[en] \usemodule[simplefonts] \setmainfont[Verdana] \setupbodyfont[10pt] \contextversion \showgrid

\starttext \input knuth \medskip \input tufte \stoptext The wrong hyphenation happens also with the default font.

%\startexceptions[en] % would syn-the-size enu-mer-ate %\stopexceptions

\starttext \hsize=1mm would synthesize enumerate \stoptext

just wondering, as on my machine and luigi's things run ok .. can this be a osx binary issue?

Hans

My apologies for not answering this particular question, other than by saying that indeed I work on a Mac, two in fact, one with OSX 10.9.5 Mavericks, the other on OS X 10.11.5 El Capitan. No difference in this respect: they produce the same hyphenation errors in an English text. To complicate (perhaps) matters a bit: I did some tests with German, French and Italian texts. Compilation with different mkiv - versions produced no differences and no hyphenation errors. So far I found hyhpenation errors only in English texts compiled with recent mkiv's on a Mac. I hope this helps to find a remedy. Best regards, Robert Blackstone
