justification

[Jörg Hagmann]

Dear list members,
After months of trying to figure out what TeX, ConTeXt etc is and how 
to install everything needed I finally produced my first document. I 
was thrilled when I saw real pdf pages with footnotes and all!

However, I noticed the following problem (no doubt the first of many to 
come): justification on the right is far from perfect - there are lines 
sticking out. After going through the manual, I decided that 
"\setuptolerance[horizontal,verystrict]" in the setup area should do 
the trick, but it didn't.  Any suggestions? (I set up ConTeXt on two 
Macs, once with teTeX and once with TeXLive, and on a Mac running 
Mandrakelinux and teTeX - the result was the same (same lines sticking 
out) on all of them).

I am currently writing a textbook and I am looking forward to using 
ConTeXt.

Can you give some examples ?

Brave heart.

Context IS the right choice.

See the attachment (testpage.pdf). There is a line sticking out in this 
way on 3 of 6 pages, plus a few minor protrusions of the width of about 
one character.

Hello,
seems to be a problem with non-ascii characters. See also:

Could you try this?

can you check if you have hyphenation? there have been pattern problems (changes 
in names and such)

btw, doe anyone object if i ship generic context patterns in the main zip?

Hyphenation is working. I attached one pdf-page showing the result to a 
previous message which is being "hold for approval".

Re: justification

[Jörg Hagmann]

Since the attachment showing one pdf-page doesn't seem to pass through, 
let me describe the outcome:
On 6 pages with mostly default settings, there are 3 lines sticking out 
on the right side by 2- 3 characters ("igt", "mt" and "ng"). In 
addition, there are about 3 smaller defects (ca. 1 character 
protrusions). I am using "il1", and "de" as mainlanguage. 
Interestingly, on 2 pages the defects occur at exactly the same 
distance from the upper edge.

Re: justification

[Willi Egger]

Guata obat!

This is nice, another swiss user! (sorry gang for this bit of patriotism)

In fact if you use \setuptolerance[verystrict] will cause TeX to use as 
few glue as possible, so the possibilities to stretch a line to have a 
better breakpoint is lowered. Instead you might use 
\setuptolerance[tolerant, stretch] or even 
\setuptolerance[verytolerant,stretch]

Kind regards
Willi

I'd suggest
\setuptolerance[{horizontal,verytolerant,stretch},{vertical,strict}]

German has that many long words that I never get nice columns without 
"stretch".

Re: justification

[Jörg Hagmann]

Thank you for the welcome and the suggestions - they worked. I 
misinterpreted the term "strict", thinking it would apply to 
justification. In the future, I'll try a little harder myself before 
asking the next question!

hm, no url but aaaaa12345678

so, how about:

\def\hyphenationpoint
   {\ruledhskip\zeropoint}

\def\hyphenated#1%
   {\bgroup
    \!!counta\zerocount
    \def\hyphenated##1{\advance\!!counta\plusone}%

       \ifnum\!!countb>2 \ifnum\!!countb<\!!counta
         \hyphenationpoint
       \fi\fi}%
    \handletokens#1\with\hyphenated
