Dear all, can you explain why the following code does not produce an horizontal spacing for the second line ? I am using MarkIV. \starttext \hskip2em a\crlf \hskip4em a\crlf \stoptext Best regards, -- Flavien. ---------------------------- "Quantum objects are completely crazy but, at least, they are all crazy in the same way."
