Dear all, I need german Umlaute in my formulas of my master thesis. I used \ddot{a} for ä. It had worked fine until I updated Context yesterday :-(. Since that update I only get an crossed a with an accent, but no ä. I still use MKII. Has anybody a solution for my little problem? Thanks Greetings and Happy Eastern Florian Baudach

Hello Florian, (I fear to update ConTeXt now that you mention it, so I won't try out your example :) :) :) Do you need "a umlaut" or do you need a double differential (d^a/dt^2)? I just wanted to say that if you need ä as "a umlaut" in formulas, you would probably want to use $\text{bär}$ rather than $\rm b\ddot ar$ in such cases. But if there's indeed a problem, it needs to be fixed anyway. Mojca

Here \starttext $\ddot a$ \stoptext works fine (see attached pdf). I am using ConTeXt ver: 2009.04.13 14:45 MKII fmt: 2009.4.13 int: english/english Can you create a minimal example that fails? Aditya

Yes. I think I have found the problem: \starttext \placeformula \startformula Knappheit = \frac{Stimmen\ f \ddot{u}r\ erstplatzierte\ Partei - Stimmen\ f\ddot{u}r\ zweitplatzierte\ Partei}{G\ddot{u}ltige\ Stimmen} \stopformula \startformula \ddot a \stopformula \usetypescript[times][ec] \setupbodyfont[times,11pt] \placeformula \startformula Knappheit = \frac{Stimmen\ f \ddot{u}r\ erstplatzierte\ Partei - Stimmen\ f\ddot{u}r\ zweitplatzierte\ Partei}{G\ddot{u}ltige\ Stimmen} \stopformula \startformula \ddot a \stopformula \stoptext When I use the Default-Font, then \ddot{} works fine. But when I switch to times, then I get an very strange symbol. (I wasn't able to attach the output of my example, because it was to big :-() This problem has started when I updated to: ConTeXt ver: 2009.04.10 18:02 MKII fmt: 2009.4.12. Before the update \ddot{} worked also with times. Is there an solution? Greetings Florian Baudach

Yes, use
Knappheit = \frac{\text{Stimmen für erstplatzierte Partei} ...
but I agree that it needs to be fixed. I didn't manage to convince
Hans to fix this so far, so maybe you'll have more luck with it :) :)
This has been a known problem for a few months (my fault, sorry), but
I was sure that it has already been fixed a while ago.

I would suggest adding the file q-8r.enc to
/fonts/enc/dvips/context/
and replace
"encqrm ReEncodeFont"
