Hi, please have a look at the following – the "wondering" doesn't brake anymore thanks to the "kern": \starttext \showframe \enableregime[utf] blablabla blablabla blablabla blablabla blablabla blablabla blabla blablabla „{\kern-0.025em}wondering \stoptext I have read an e-mail by Hans from 2003 when he said "well, it's just like that". But time has passed. Is there a solution today in MkIV or even in MkII ? Thank you, Steffen
