middle align without ascenders and descenders

middle align without ascenders and descenders

[Pablo Rodriguez]

Dear list,

I have the following code:

\setuppapersize[S6]
\usemodule[simplefonts][size=340pt]
\setmainfont[TeX Gyre Pagella]
\setupmakeup[standard][align=middle]
\starttext
\startstandardmakeup
aa
\stopstandardmakeup

\startstandardmakeup
db
\stopstandardmakeup

\startstandardmakeup
pq
\stopstandardmakeup
\stoptext

This sample shows something that I want to avoid: when centering text
vertically, is there a way that by default the text would be centered
not taking in account ascenders and descenders?

So the text in the sample above would be read at the same height in the
three slides.

Many thanks for your help,


Pablo

Does this what you want?
