Line height for smaller fonts. (Migrating from LaTeX to ConTeXt:) forcing new line and new page
Hello, let's have the following example: --- \starttext \tt \input tufte \hairline \tfx \input tufte \hairline \tfxx \input tufte \stoptext --- When I look at the result, I see the smaller font the bigger "gap" between lines (or this may be taken as "line height" relative to letter height). As I would need to type many datafiles, it's important for me to reduce line height, even if readability of the text becomes a bit worse. Is it possible to achieve this anyhow? Another question: How to force new line and new page to start? - LaTeX provides \newline, \newpage\ linebreak and \pagebreak commands - see e.g. http://www.personal.ceu.hu/tex/breaking.htm. Does ConTeXt provide similar commands? Or how to achieve this? Regards, Lukas -- Ing. Lukáš Procházka [mailto:LPr@pontex.cz] Pontex s. r. o.

- LaTeX provides \newline, \newpage\ linebreak and \pagebreak commands - see e.g. http://www.personal.ceu.hu/tex/breaking.htm.
\crlf (forced newline with strut, no whitespace) \par (regular par break) \page (pagebreak) \break (linebreak)
Does ConTeXt provide similar commands? Or how to achieve this?
Regards,
Lukas

- LaTeX provides \newline, \newpage\ linebreak and \pagebreak commands - see e.g. http://www.personal.ceu.hu/tex/breaking.htm.
\newline = \crlf \linebreak = \blank (not completely sure as I do not remember what linebreak does) \newpage = \page Aditya
