I need a multi-line header in the right page corner, with content right-aligned. \setupheadertexts[nothing on left][line 1 \par line 2] doesn't work. Is using a \vbox the correct method of handling this? If so, how? \setupheadertexts[nothing on left][\vbox{line 1 \blank line 2] puts the header in the left corner. -- david

\setupheadertexts[nothing on left] [{\framed[frame=off,width=fit,align=right]{line1\\line2}}] Wolfgang

Thanks Wolfgang. Not quite correct yet, though. The individual lines in your example are aligned flush-left in a box that is on the right of the page. I need lines that are aligned flush-right in the box on the right of the page - the width of each line varies. I'm trying nested \framed elements, but not having any success. -- david

\setupheadertexts[][{\framed[frame=off,width=fit,align=flushright]{line1\\line 2.}}] Thks. Works now. A further minor question: One of the lines sometimes ends with a period and it would be nice to have it optically aligned. Is this possible? The document is a tabular report, so this is a minor point. Just wondering. -- david

align={hanging,flushright} You would need to enable protrusion first using \usetypescript[serif,sans,mono][hanging][pure] Also see http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Protrusion#Details Aditya

You can use hanging punctuation. Wolfgang
