Hi,

I'm trying to setup context for a book layout but I'm still failing with
some basics (hopefully) ...

\definepapersize[Lasker][width=21cm,height=28cm]
\setuppapersize[Lasker][A4]
\setuplayout[width=172.5mm,lines=53,leftmargin=0mm,rightmargin=0mm,header=12
pt,headerdistance=12pt,footer=12pt,footerdistance=12pt,topspace=20mm,backspa
ce=15mm,grid=yes]
\setupinterlinespace[line=12pt]
\setuppagenumbering [alternative=doublesided,location=header]
\setupindenting[12pt]

Is this o.k. so far?

\setupfootnotes[location=lastcolumn,rule=off,numbercommand=\myfootnotenumber
]
\def\myfootnotenumber#1{#1. }
\setupfootnotedefinition[location=normal]

This does not work as expected. I want footnotes in the last column of a two
column format at the *bottom*. Both standard twocolumn (via
\startcolumns[n=2]) format fails and also column sets: if I use column sets
(defined with \definecolumnset[example][n=2,balance=yes]) footnotes are in
the left *and* right column or only in the left. If I use \startcolumns[n=2]
footnotes are placed correctly in the right column but not at the bottom of
the page and not aligned on grid.

???

After defining a typescript (see comlete example attached) I want to use
protrusion and expansion (I've followed the description in
co-typography.pdf):

\definetypeface[kievit][rm][sans][kievit][default][features=hz]
\definetypeface[kievit][ss][sans][kievit][default][features=hz]
\definetypeface[kievit][tt][mono][modern][default][rscale=1.12]
\definetypeface[kievit][mm][math][iwona] [default][rscale=1.02]

\usetypescript[kievit]
\setupbodyfont[kievit,ss,10pt]
\definefontfeature[default][default]
	[protrusion=pure,expansion=quality,mode=node,script=latn]
\setupalign[hanging]

But it doesn't work at all. While with standard two column format line
breaking is like without hz features at all; with columnsets line breaking
is getting even worse. Any idea?

Another question: How can define the amount of indentation and before and
after space of quotations (\setupquotation but how)? Quotation should be set
9/10.5pt. And body text should align on grid before and after a quotation.

How can I define \setupheader so that I got the following:
On a chapter page no header but folio centered in footer, on the following
pages folios on left side if even page and on right side if odd page inside
header. Right part on even pages with "Part n\quad Chapter m" while text of
\chapter in left side of odd pages.

+-----------------------------------+  +---------------------------------+
|8                  Part I Chapter 3|  |Netherlands                     9|
...

Sometimes I have to change this to:
+-----------------------------------+  +---------------------------------+
|11     Part I Chapter 3 Netherlands|  |Subsection Euwe-Lasker         12|
...

If a subsection is present.

Best regards,
Ulrich
