Sorry for multi posting. Had yesterday a problem with my mail system and was not sure if mail was sent at all. On Tue, 2022-03-08 at 21:26 +0100, Marco Patzer via ntg-context wrote:

Hans indicated a tool, a program, which allows to verify that that all start* stop* tag pairs are symmetric and placed in correct order. I just cant remember how it is called. Can anybody help here?

mtxrun --autogenerate --script check <file>

Thank you very much. If there is not any other tool it seems that there are no errors.

The following will not report missing tags but will find other common issues and report them on the console:

context --errors='*' <file>

I guess this is equal to \enabledirectives[logs.errors] With which only the following error on plain pdf is remaining after fixing any other indicated error logging > start possible issues fonts > start missing characters: /usr/local/texlive/2021/texmf-dist/fonts/opentype/public/lm/lmroman12- regular.otf fonts > 2 U+00001 START OF HEADING fonts > stop missing characters error logging > stop possible issues OK, I guess I figured the cause of why xml export aborts in the middle of the document. It came to me while writing the above lines and wanting to report that i see some warnings about fuzzy paragraphs (forget about them). To make it short it triggered a memory about a rather old thread, where Hans mentioned that the exporter is not so fond of and keen about LaTeX style \chapter, \section commands and that he advises to use \startchapter \stopchapter, \startsection \stopsection, etc. pairs instead. So i gave it a try and exchanged all occurrences of \chapter, \section, \subsection, \subsection by their \start* \stop* equivalents and now the xml document and the html document are a lot largen. They now conatin nearly the whole document. There are sill plenty of LaTeX style commands around in the document for which exporter friendly \start* \stop* replacements exist. I will continue this route and 'am comfident that in the end will get get a full xhtml and true e-book for my lecture notes. :-) Thank you very much for triggering memories. Christoph

Ok replaced everything i could find with \start* \stop* pairs which got me far down the document just the last about 4 pages.

The only thing when comparing with examples for using exporter which still differs is that i use blank line in my sources. Does this implicit definition of paragraphs cause any hickups in exporter and would it be adviseable to enclose each paragraph in \startparagraph and \stopparagraph? Or should that be no issue for xmlexporter and would ensuring clean recent install be more efficient in this case. normally there is no need to mark paragraphs
