Hello all, could somebody explain me the usage of the \setuptolerance command and its particular parameters? I've found several forms of this command, but no explanation of them at all... The main ConTeXt manual (cont-eni.pdf, pages 87-88) only mentions that it is used [horizontal,verystrict] and [vertical,strict] by default... Should I issue two \setuptolerance commands to setup up horizontal and vertical tolerance? On contextgarden.net I've found one example using the following form: \setuptolerance [{horizontal, verytolerant},{vertical, verystrict}] ...tried this, but it produces "Overfull \hbox" at almost every third line... :-( Currently I use the setup: \setuptolerance[verytolerant,stretch] which gives quite good results, but I don't know what it exactly does (I googled it somewhere)... Thanks for help. Richard
Hello Richard,
could somebody explain me the usage of the \setuptolerance command and its particular parameters?
I have put an explanation on texshow-web: http://texshow.contextgarden.net
The main ConTeXt manual (cont-eni.pdf, pages 87-88) only mentions that it is used [horizontal,verystrict] and [vertical,strict] by default...
I wonder what the vertical form is for (columns?).
On contextgarden.net I've found one example using the following form:
\setuptolerance [{horizontal, verytolerant},{vertical, verystrict}]
This looks incorrect to me. See my comment on texshow-web. Patrick -- ConTeXt wiki: http://contextgarden.net
Hello Patrick, thank you very much! Hopely I understand right, that the command \setuptolerance[verytolerant,stretch] ( or \setuptolerance[horizontal,verytolerant,stretch] ) will result to \tolerance 4500\emergencystretch\bodyfontsize :-) Richard Patrick Gundlach wrote:

Hello Richard,
\setuptolerance[verytolerant,stretch] ( or \setuptolerance[horizontal,verytolerant,stretch] )
will result to \tolerance 4500\emergencystretch\bodyfontsize
[from my memory] yes. Patrick -- ConTeXt wiki: http://contextgarden.net
