I came across an issue in context (context ver. 2011.05.18 22:26, LuaTeX ver: beta-0.65.0-2010121421 (rev 4034) ) when trying to cite a bibliography item having an author with a German umlaut "ä" Compiling the short example below, produces the following output and then ------------------------------------- ... system > begin file test.tex at line 3 publications > loading database from test.bbl (test.bbl ! Undefined control sequence. \@@pbs ->Tr\0 6 \dostartpublication ...@@pby \noexpand \or \@@pbs \noexpand \or \@@pbn \noex... l.9 \stoppublication ) backend > xmp > using file 'M:/Programs/context/tex/texmf-local/tex/context/base/lpdf-pdx.xml' pages > flushing realpage 1, userpage 1, subpage 1 system > end file test.tex at line 5 ... mtx-context | fatal error: return code: 1 ---------------------- The strange thing is that when I change the Tr\"{a}ger to Schr\"{a}ger, everything works just fine. Does anybody know what's going on here?!
