The \ConTeXt macro and sans serif fonts

I want to use the \ConTeXt macro (so the colofon says \ConTeXt was used), but I'm using the Optima font. The result is pretty ugly. With a standard serif font that looks OK, as the n of Con would touch the serif of the upper side of the T if moved more to the right but with a sans serif font, a 'hole' exists between Con and TeXt: Is it OK to define my own \ConTeXt so that the kerning is more pleasing? G PS. I'm obviously close to finsihing the book if this is what I worry about.

sure, we're not that picky about it, sometimes small caps look better; even the dropped E can be made normal if needed, just do something that looks pleasing to your eyes 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 -----------------------------------------------------------------
