Hopefully, this is the correct list for this question. I'm trying to typeset documents using the font Hoefler on MacOSX (10.8.4) with ConTeXt 2013.05.28 from the TeXlive 2013 distribution. All works, but unfortunately, em dashes are not typeset correctly; there are three dashes instead of a continuous line. I'm obviously missing something and would appreciate help in correcting this.
A minimal example that produces the error is:
\usetypescriptfile[osx]
\usetypescript[hoefler]
\setupbodyfont[hoefler,11pt]
\starttext
A test of Hoefler at 10 pt. The emdash--- does not work...
\stoptext
files are compiled using "context myfile.tex"
Thanks.
__martin.

The font (at least my version) does not contain an em dash in slot
U+2014.

It rather seems that not you, but the font is missing something.

I get the same result here. However, if I compile with
context --jit myfile.tex
I get Latin Modern instead of Hoefler. From the log file:

The font is there:
mtxrun --script fonts --list --all hoefler
hoeflertext hoeflertext /home/marco/.fonts/HoeflerText.otf
hoeflertextnormal hoeflertext /home/marco/.fonts/HoeflerText.otf
hoeflertextregular hoeflertext /home/marco/.fonts/HoeflerText.otf
Why does the font lookup differ between luatex and luajittex?
Hoefler Version: OTF 1.0;PS 001.001;Core 116;AOCW 1.0 161

I checked a different version of the font (1.000) and it works. It
seems you're using a version not containing an em dash.

This problem persists. Can someone reproduce this?

I can reproduce Martins problem but when I write – (Alt + -) and — (Alt + Shift + -)
both symbols appear in the output.
I checked the font (Hoefler Text.ttc on Mac OS 10.8.4) and it contains a emdash
at slot 2014 but its named “emdash.standard”. There is also a character with
the name “emdash” in the font at slot F0010.

Fails here with the following error message:

Hi Marko,

Thanks for looking into this. Finder reports that my version of Hoefler is 8.0d2e1. Interestingly, bringing up the font panel, selecting Hoefler text followed by show characters (gear wheel in bottom left of font panel), shows the the em dash is present in the font.
Additionally, the following, typeset with lualatex, uses hoefler and does have the emdash. The resulting pdf file when intorrogated using pdffont reports
> pdffont lat_hoef.pdf
HoeflerText-Regular (Type0)
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{xltxtra}
\defaultfontfeatures{Mapping=tex-text}
\setromanfont
[Scale=1.05,ItalicFeatures={Contextuals={NoLineFinal,NoLineInitial}}]
{Hoefler Text}
\begin{document}
This is hoefler at 10pt. This is an em dash---ok!
\end{document}
So, is there something wrong with the ConTeXt mapping?

This means we already have three different Hoefler versions in this
thread.

When I use a version with em dash, your example works here. Someone
using a Mac is probably in a better position to help out.
You can also try to use simplefonts, it works for me:
\usemodule [simplefonts]
\setmainfont [Hoefler-Text]
\starttext
A test of Hoefler at 10 pt. The emdash--- does not work...
\stoptext

great ... another non standard use of names ... in a few years open type
will be as big a mess as type one
you can play with:
local tlig = {
-- endash = "hyphen hyphen",
-- emdash = "hyphen hyphen hyphen",
[0x2013] = { 0x002D, 0x002D },
[0x2014] = { 0x002D, 0x002D, 0x002D },
-- quotedblleft = "quoteleft quoteleft",
-- quotedblright = "quoteright quoteright",
-- quotedblleft = "grave grave",
-- quotedblright = "quotesingle quotesingle",
-- quotedblbase = "comma comma",
}
in font-otc.lua (remake the format and wipe the font cache)

I don't think it's the font. I have been trying to produce an em dash
using the latest stable release from contextgarden.net, with a couple
of different fonts--Alegreya, which is a free OpenType font, Latin
Modern, and one other that I don't remember. In my case, regardless of
the font, \emdash works but --- does not.

Thanks! I can confirm that \emdash works perfectly with the minimal example I posted.

\startlines
first: –\space —
second: --\space ---
third: \endash \space \emdash
\stoplines
-- and --- are pseudo ligatures that use the tlig feature which is added
to each font automatically but depends to some extent to how the font
has glyphs defined
anyway, using --- is not something recommended

There are no standard glyph names for TrueType/OpenType fonts. AGL is
completely optional, and is not part of any standard. Fonts can, and do,
use names that does not follow AGL (or no names at all, but LuaTeX’s
fontloader will probably synthesize names in this case).

Khaled
