Hi gang,
speaking of xml... I have two easy questions, but can't find an
answer. It's about tweaking the pdf-output I get:
1. How do you add an additional hyphenation to a word? How would I
enter the equivalent of super\-duper in an xml-file? I tried
super&addhyphen;duper with this definition:
\defineXMLentity[addhyphen]{\-}
in my environment, but this doesn't seem to work.
2. Similar question: how to prevent an unwanted ligature, esp. in
German? In TeX, I write Kauf{}laden. What would be a good way to do
this in xml? I was thinking of Kauf&nolig;laden and
\defineXMLentity[nolig]{\kern0pt}
Any thoughts?
Thanks!
Thomas

Needs an example file, because
\defineXMLentity[addhyphen]{\-}
\starttext
\hsize 1in
\startXMLdata
I tried super&addhyphen;duper
\stopXMLdata
\stoptext
works in both mkii and mkiv.

That should work, but probably better is:
\defineXMLentity[nolig]{\prewordbreak\kern0pt\postwordbreak}
because the \kern will disable hyphenation, otherwise.
In mkii, just
\defineXMLentity[nolig]{{}}
also works (but not in mkiv, and that is a feature).
Best wishes,
Taco
