* ConTeXt not defending the right margin

  To: ConTeXt Typesetting

I am using "mtxrun          | ConTeXt TDS Runner Tool 1.31"

In real life I get documents that have long blank lines which are a 
sequence of underscore characters.   I have to transcribe these into 
ConTeXt file.  But when compiled into a pdf file the long resulting rule 
line infringes on the right boundary.

What can I do, to get ConTeXt to maintain the boundary and display the 
lines as intended?

Thanks.

%%%%%%%%%%%% Minimal Example
\starttext

DATE: ____________, 20______, at 
______________________________________________________, 
____________________ city_______________ \ state --------------\ country.

You have to insert \hskip0pt between two underscores (otherwise ConTeXt
cannot know where to break the line).

Your sample should read:

\starttext

DATE:
_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_,
20_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_, at
_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt,
_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_
city_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_
\ state --------------\ country.

1. Whereas
_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_\hskip0pt_,

I hope it helps,

Hi,

Probably instead of underscores you should use horizontal line, that is

	\hl[3]

(or any other value instead of 3), something like

\starttext
Date: \hl[8], 20\hl[5], at \hl[5], City \hl[7]
\stoptext

Best regards: OK

Hi Otared,

but I’m afraid that line breaks cannot take place inside \hl:

    \starttext
    Date: \hl[50]
    \stoptext

Hi Pablo,

Indeed you are right… I didn’t check the limit cases.
Sorry for the wrong hint I gave!
