Hi, By default there seem to be no space between initials in bibliography (which I guess there should be?). I can get a space by adding \setupbtx[ stopper:initials={.\btxspace}, ] but I don't think that this is how the stopper is meant to be used. Do I miss some other key that I can use to get space inbetween initials? Minimal example below, and I attach the result without the setting above (no space V.I. Arnol'd) and with the setting above (space V. I. Arnol'd). /Mikael %Example \startbuffer[ref] @book {arnold, AUTHOR = {Arnold, Vladimir I.}, TITLE = {Ordinary differential equations}, SERIES = {Universitext}, NOTE = {Translated from the Russian by Roger Cooke, Second printing of the 1992 edition}, PUBLISHER = {Springer-Verlag, Berlin}, YEAR = {2006}, PAGES = {ii+334}, ISBN = {978-3-540-34563-3; 3-540-34563-9}, MRCLASS = {34-01 (34Cxx 37-01 37C10)}, MRNUMBER = {2242407}, } \stopbuffer \usebtxdataset[ref][ref.buffer] \setupbtx[dataset=ref] \definebtxrendering[ref][dataset=ref] \setupbtx[ stopper:initials={.\btxspace},%comment to show version without space ] \starttext \startTEXpage[offset=3bp] We study \cite[arnold]. \placelistofpublications[ref][method=dataset] \stopTEXpage \stoptext

In the APA specification (publ-imp-apa.mkvi), we have stopper:initials={. }, % with a (breakable) space but there is no space by default (publ-ini.mkiv) stopper:initials={.}, Alan
