Hi Hans,

at the first glance i would have said yes, and we had tested it, e. g.
see attached set of test files.

Closer look now reveals that it has a flaw: it doesn't automatically
trigger the mktextfm program, if an expanded tfm is missing. Even if i
have e. g. a proper cmr10+20.mf in the search path, the cmr10+20.tfm
won't be generated; instead i have to do a manual mktextfm call.

That's not nice and needs to be fixed. Big thanks to Peter Münster for
reporting it!

Regards, Hartmut

Subject: [NTG-context] HZ and DVI

Hello,

now I see, that my problem with HZ is only in DVI mode, PDFs are ok.

Here my test file:

\usetypescript[serif,sans,mono][handling][highquality]
\setupalign[hanging,hz]
\usetypescript[modern-base][\defaultencoding]
\setupbodyfont[modern]
\starttext
\input tufte
\stoptext

And here the errors:

Hi Hans,

the last e-mail in this thread that you have forwarded to the ConTeXt
list might be a little misleading, as the problem during later
investigations appeared to be not related to pdftex (pdftex-1.40.1 works
ok, no bug). I hope that Peter Münster, who was always in the Cc:, now
knows what to do if he still wants to use HZ in DVI files. In short, he
would need to generate all required expanded .tfm files (if not in
autoexpand mode) and .pk fonts by hand with proper expanded naming,
using e. g. mktextfm and gsftopk or mktexpk tools. But it's nowadays
much much easier to do HZ in PDF mode.

Regards, Hartmut

Indeed, I'll go the easy way: I'll try to forget all about dvi and go pdf.
Thank you for all your investigations!
