I am making my first steps in ConTeXt. I am only interested in Mk-iv and

am using version 2012.09.06 23:03. I tried to explore the possibilities of
the

additional module *lettrine* following its documentation
(*lettrine-doc.pdf*)

and prepared the following example, which reproduces almost exactly the

first one found in that text:

    \usemodule[lettrine]
    \starttext
    \lettrine {T}{he two} typeset arguments are the dropped capital

and the run-in text following it; the \TeX\ source of this paragraph
started

with \starttyping "\usemodule[lettrine]
    \starttext
    \lettrine{T}{he two} …" \stoptyping …
    \stoptext

When I typeset it with ConTeXt, the result was not what the documentation

showed. The initial capital was fine and so was the rest of the first line,
but

the second line was blank and the regular text continued at the third and

following lines. This was with the default value of 2 lines as size for the

capital. If one indicates a greater number of lines, all of them but the
first

one are blank and the regular text continues after all that whitespace.

As I was not completely sure that my installation of ConTeXt was

unobjectable, I tried to typeset the example in *ConTeXt online*

(http://live.contextgarden.net/). There the option to use *LuaTex /
Mark-iv*

is not offered (!!??), so I selected the *pdfTex* alternative and then it

happened that everything behaved as expected (at least in the first part of

the example, as some of the following commands seem not to be

understood by *pdfTex*).

My conclusion is that *lettrine* does not work correctly with Mark-iv and

there is somewhere a bug that has to be corrected. But I could be

mistaken. Am I doing something wrongly?

Thanks for your interest
