Subject: Problem with ConTeXt (MkIV), Hebrew and ligatures
Date: Thu, 27 Sep 2012 22:27:27 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <5064A89F.6030402@gmail.com> (raw)

This is a problem originally posted in TeX/StackExchange. However, since 
I have not had any luck in finding a solution I post it here too. I am 
confident that somebody here should know the answer.


http://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/73970/problem-with-context-mkiv-hebrew-and-ligatures

"Since I last played with the latest ConTeXt MkIV, there has been 
introduced this new feature. It now seems to combine Hebrew characters 
automatically when possible to ligatures. So for example. If I have a 
word with following two characters:

U+05D5 (HEBREW LETTER VAV)
U+05BC (HEBREW POINT DAGESH OR MAPIQ)

ConTeXt will combine these to:

U+FB35 (HEBREW LETTER VAV WITH DAGESH)

However, I would need to disable this feature for a number of reasons.
For example, this breaks my little database query, because the query key 
is changed before(?) macro gets it.

So if somebody would know how to turn this off and maybe also that what 
has changed."



Sincerely,
