We are both on macosx: the idea is to use XeTeX. I installed on Miriam's macbook mactex, and I also have updated it from the mactex site. Exactly like mine. We're experiencing this problem: we have an utf 8 text and I'm compiling with no problem on my machine. On Miriam's one 1. if we compile with ConTeXt-pdftex (specifying the regime) we are having little black boxes near the non-ascii char (i.e. an accented glyph is rendered as non accented glyph + box) 2. if we compile with XeConTeXt the resulting pdf simply skips the accents (e.g an accented glyph is rendered non accented) More: We can't do ctxtools --updatecontext it complaint it cannot fetch the zip Differences: 1. I am on macbook pro, she's on macbook (both on 2007 intel) 2. I'm using the English version of the macosx system, she's using the Italian one.

I could send you a patch to remove those black boxes, but you won't be able to put them over the character before it, so that won't help you at all. TeX needs accent specification before the character. A combining accent after the character cannot be handled, at least not in pdfTeX - XeTeX and LuaTeX should be fine with it.

But if you load some system font, the accents should work OK. If you are using XeTeX, I strongly recommend you to use both the same version of ConTeXt. The one from January and the one form September differ considerably. (Even with the latest one I have some problems again - I need to figure out where the problem is, but it's nothing critical.) > More: > We can't do > ctxtools --updatecontext > > it complaint it cannot fetch the zip Download the zip manually and unzip it to the folder where the old ConTeXt resides. Run mktexlsr and texexec --make [--xtx] --all. updatecontext doesn't do anything else.

We're having different behaviors usign XeTeX, while ConTeXt works the same on thwo machines. My XeConTeXt works ok. The one on Miriam's machine not. > Can you try to convert the text again using > pdftotext -enc UTF-8 your-pdf-document.pdf > and copy that text into the main document? We have already done it.

Can you send a minimal example (I only need a set of those characters in an UTF-8 file). Some problems can be solved (that one with accents cannot be). UTF-8 support in ConTeXt in pdfTeX has been added gradually: whenever someone figured out that some glyphs or definitions were missing (for example some UTF-8 math symbols), they were added.

In any case, we can start working seriously at the review project while waiting for an update. > Which glyphs are still problematic? Can you send a minimal example (I > only need a set of those characters in an UTF-8 file). Hmm, rethinking about my post, I think that I was writing it progressively. So, the use of system fonts solved also this problem.
