I tried to get one piece in a justified text to behave as follows: right aligned and with a jagged left edge. But what I tried influenced my entire document.

\starttext \startalignment[left] Blah blah blah \stopalignment \stoptext Don't ask why the parameter to \startalignment is left, not right. Look at the context wiki [1] for information on why this is so, nikolai [1] http://contextgarden.net/Main_Page -- ::: name: Nikolai Weibull :: aliases: pcp / lone-star / aka ::: ::: born: Chicago, IL USA :: loc atm: Gothenburg, Sweden ::: ::: page: www.pcppopper.org :: fun atm: gf,lps,ruby,lisp,war3 ::: main(){printf(&linux["\021%six\012\0"],(linux)["have"]+"fun"-97);}

Hi Gerben, with \raggedright one needs to use {}. May be a better approach is to use \framedtext[align=left,width=xxcm,frame=off]{your text} Pease refer to the attached file. Kind regards Willi Gerben Wierda wrote:

Can someone explain me how to do this?
