Suppose I want to typeset the formula: 1 - {}^nC_2\tan^2\theta + {}^nC_4 then it appears as if n is power of - and +. The same formula in LaTeX comes out nicely. Is there something I need to change? -- Respect, Shiv Shankar Dayal

Hi,
ConTeXt supports prescripts:
\startTEXpage[offset=1DK]
\m{1 - {}^nC_2\tan^2\theta + {}^nC_4 }
\m{1 - C_2^^n \tan^2\theta + C_4^^n }
\stopTEXpage
If you want them below, use double _.

Only in math, or generally? \startquotation {}[…] Here I need the empty group, otherwise the brackets belong to \start… \stopquotation Hraban
