Protcode for context

Protcode for context

[John Culleton]

The following works for pdftex
--------------------------------------
\rm
\pdfadjustspacing=2
\input protcode.tex
\pdfprotrudechars=2
\setprotcode\font
\pdffontexpand\rm 20 20 5 autoexpand
-----------------------------------
but on Context (mkii or mkiv) it gives this error:
--------------------------------------------
(./prot.tex (./protcode.tex)
! Missing font identifier.
<to be read again>
                   \edef
\checkfontclass #1->\edef
                          \fontclass {\executeifdefined {\fontclass -#1}{\fo...

\setcurrentfontstyle #1->\checkfontclass {#1}
                                             \edef \fontstyle {#1}\ifmmode 
\...
l.8 \pdffontexpand\rm
                      20 20 5 autoexpand
-------------------------------------------------------------
It does not matter whether I use minimals or texlive.

\rm is not a font identifier in ConTeXt, but a full-blown font
switch, a bit like \rmfamily in latex.

The http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Protrusion  explains how to use
protrusion. The bottom line: if you want protrusion in context,
use context commands, not plain TeX commands.

Best wishes,
Taco

Thanks much. That handles protrusion. 

I can't find a reference in the wiki for the HZ style of 
expansion/contraction of a font. I searched under HZ, autoexpand 
and so on. What is the keyword for mkiv?
