you forgot "local dynamics", the following works function fonts.otf.set_dynamics(tfmdata,attribute,features) local shared = tfmdata.shared local dynamics = shared.dynamics if shared then

hm, you need to to test shared before using it, so it really is: function fonts.otf.set_dynamics(tfmdata,attribute,features) local shared = tfmdata.shared if shared then local dynamics = shared.dynamics i wonder what you tested -) ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | fax: 038 477 53 74 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl -----------------------------------------------------------------

Does this handle the other [off-list] utf-8 bug that generates an error message from font-tfm.lua:591?

No. You get that error because the font does not have a non-breaking hyphen, and you can "fix" it by changing that line into if characters[current.char] and characters[current.char].class == "mark" then and regenerating the format. But it will still not "work", because the glyph still does not exist. Best wishes, Taco

Actually, this bug had the nice side-effect of identiying a few spots in this huge project (journal) where the conversion of articles to context was buggy (like that u-2011 example, they were all supposed to be converted). Nice to get a _helpful_ bug for a change. OTOH that should be fixed anyway... The interesting thing is that using the default lm setup it does not show up, but as soon as font features are activated it does.
