Dear Hans,

...

...
After updating to the current version (mtx-context | current version: 2013.11.01 12:20), I run ConTeXt again. But I still don't have the color output.

make sure you have input in triplets (no precomposed characters)

What do you mean "input in triplets (no precomposed characters)"? We type the first consonant, second vowel, and third consonant in order, then computer show one character for these input.

...

- make sure you have the right fonts - check if there is an hanbatanglvt.lfg file (loaded)

Yes, there is an hanbatanglvt.lfg file. ConTeXt/tex/texmf-context/tex/context/fonts/hanbatanglvt.lfg But the installed font's name is "HANBatang-LVT.ttf". So I changed the font name in your file from "hanbatanglvt" to "HANBatang-LVT", also I copied the above lfg file as "HANBatang-LVT.lfg" in the same folder. Is it OK to use another Korean font? Thank you. Best regards, Dalyoung

This change isn’t necessary, context refers from the normalized font name (lowercase and without hyphens etc.) to the real font with a table entry in the font database.

This shouldn’t be a problem, Hans needed for his example only a font which is available for all system. Attached is also Hans original example, this should allow you to test the feature. Wolfgang

as long as the font has the right features ... ljmo=yes tjmo=yes vjmo=yes these are official features but not supported by all renderers (or can't be set), the ms programs handle calt by default for the korean script, so that's why calt=yes also is provided

...

Attached is also Hans original example, this should allow you to test the feature.

indeed

right, and the font has the logic to to show it as composed (so, the editor must not replace the three by one)

context normalizes font names ... so you can leave the name as it is (works here) get other users results when they test this?

best discuss that with Chof cum suis as fonts need to have the right logic Hans ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | voip: 087 875 68 74 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl -----------------------------------------------------------------
