Hi, I've found some in my opinion weird behaviour concerning en/em dashes. Have a look at the following two MWEs. %%%%%%%%%% \starttext - % shows up -- % missing --- % missing \endash % missing \emdash % missing \stoptext %%%%%%%%%% %%%%%%%%%% \setupbodyfont [11.9pt] \starttext - % shows up -- % shows up --- % shows up \endash % shows up \emdash % shows up \stoptext %%%%%%%%%% Is this expected behaviour? marco

Works here with both MkII and MkIV. But I am using an old version (2010.03.20). Maybe a bug was introduced later? Aditya

OK. The version are the same. I use linux but that should not cause the problem. Maybe something wrong with the fonts? I also have TeXLive installed. marco

Same problem here too, and clearing the font cache didn't help. It looks like Hans needs to have a look. Best wishes, Taco
Hi, sorry for digging out this old thread, but the bug still persists, try \starttext \type{-} : - \par % OK \type{--} : -- \par % missing \type{---} : --- \par % missing \tex{endash} : \endash \par % missing \tex{emdash} : \emdash \par % missing \type{\switchtobodyfont [11.99pt]} \switchtobodyfont [11.99pt] \type{-} : - \par % OK \type{--} : -- \par % OK \type{---} : --- \par % OK \tex{endash} : \endash \par % OK \tex{emdash} : \emdash \par % OK \stoptext My versions: ConTeXt ver: 2010.05.08 This is LuaTeX, Version beta-0.60.1-2010042821 linux-x86 I need no urgent fix, but maybe this should be solved in long-term. It's hard to figure out what's wrong in a larger document (and how to get a workaround) if you don't know. Marco

must be something in your system as i see those dashed here 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 -----------------------------------------------------------------
must be something in your system as i see those dashed here I don't think so. I suspect a linux-x86 issue, since the only persons who confirmed this bug were Luigi and Taco, and both run linux-x86 systems. But maybe I'm wrong. I use freshly updated minimals from the garden, so nothing special.

I know Hans has secret access to Mojcas' Mac, maybe he also infiltrated my system and messed things up. ;-) Marco

What is wrong in your pdf ? It's like mine, and it's ok. Try to see it with Adobe Reader, or xpdf at least 400% , or just print it

It's like mine, and it's ok. Try to see it with Adobe Reader, or xpdf at least 400% , or just print it Ogh! The lower dashes are visible at _any_ magnification. The upper dashes only at 400% and more (only xpdf available at the moment). Strange!
Thanks for enlighten me and sorry for the noise, men! Marco

I can only confirm that they are not missing in your attachment. The dashes are very thin, so maybe your PDF viewer doesn't show them until you make a slightly bigger magnification. Mojca

2010.03.20 is OK and latest beta is OK, but my version in between broken? That sounds a bit strange to me. I'll update my minimals this night and check tomorrow. I'm afraid the problem persists. More information tomorrow. Thanks for checking. marco
