Is there a way to justify the line? I mean no word hyphenation, and words are justified like in office word. My boss is quite angry to see hyphenations at the end of lines in my file. What a hell.

lucky him that he was not born in Germany or the Netherlands with all their compound words
What a hell.

Yes, when he was talking about there must be two spaces after a period, and
there is strictly no hyphenation at the end of lines, I was almost driven
crazy: How can you set such a rule as in a typewritter period? Of course, I
did not speak out.
I use the setting, that works. Then the line became ugly, the length of
lines are irregular. Is it possible to fine-tune it.

Use landscape, with about 200 characters per line, that should resolve your problem... ;) The most important: mention somewhere, that you are not responsible for the output! Cheers, Peter -- Contact information: http://pmrb.free.fr/contact/

Oh, stupid answer, I'm sorry. I thought, that you had already been using verytolerant and stretch, that was so ugly... (it *is* ugly) Cheers, Peter -- Contact information: http://pmrb.free.fr/contact/

of add intercharacter spacing ... maybe I should add \startdtplook ... \stopdtplook which does intercharacter kern stretch after the linebreaks have been made ... actually a braindead 15 minute extension in mkiv .. makes a nice totorial so I might actually do it 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 -----------------------------------------------------------------
Thanks to Hans,Peter,Alan,Aditya,
It really helps. I combined your ideas together, the final result
is perfect.
\setupalign[verytolerant,stretch,hanging,highquility,nothyphenated]
I did not try many combinations, but withouth verytoleratnt and stretch, the
result is not as good as all of them included.
Hope this thread will help those who work with annoying boss :).

Perhaps enabling character protrusion and expansion will help a little.
\setupalign[hanging, highquality]

we can make a module m-realbad.tex or so: \setups[*strict] % high penalties (no solutionspace left) \setupalign[verytolerant,stretch,nothyphenated,flushleft] \setupwhitespace[line] % maybe een that without stretch \setuplayout[header=2\lineheight] % only lines the strict might also help your position at work (we could make a competition out of this as we also need fonts without features, math without smaller sizes, sans fonts only, 9bp bodyfont sizes, etc) 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 -----------------------------------------------------------------
