I confirm the issue in NOT present in my machine (Arch Linux x64). I can
see the dashes as they are supposed to be.

it has to do with more aggressive tounicode resolution and it happens 
that lm/gyre fonts have these chars as ligatures; i'll be a bit more 
restrictive in that case

Sorry for the misunderstanding. Indeed, I get two and four dashes for
en and em dashes respectively.

Hi Mikael,

sorry for not being accurate enough before (I have just realized it).

It is about copying from the generated document (it also happens with
your attached PDF file):

    \starttext
    \startTEXpage[offset=1em]
    -- ---

    – —
    \stopTEXpage
    \stoptext

Select all, copy and paste it on a pure-text editor. You will get two
and four hyphens for en and em dashes, respectively.

Could you confirm this? Until very recently, I copied en and em dashes
from PDF documents generated by ConTeXt.

Many thanks for your help,

Pablo

Hi Tom,

many thanks for your reply.

I guess your OS is MacOS X. I have just tested a brand-new installation
in Linux 32bit:

time (cd && mkdir temp-ctx-install && cd temp-ctx-install &&\
rsync -ptv rsync://contextgarden.net/minimals/setup/first-setup.sh . &&\
./first-setup.sh --modules=all && cd &&\
source temp-ctx-install/tex/setuptex && mtxrunjit --generate\
&& echo "\starttext – —\par-- ---\stoptext" \
> test-ctx-temp.mkiv && contextjit --purgeall test-ctx-temp.mkiv &&\
evince test-ctx-temp.pdf)

And I’m still experiencing the issue. I wonder whether other Linux
(32bit or 64bit) users are experiencing this.

Many thanks for your help,

Pablo

Works as expected here, with ConTeXt 2017.05.10 10:41

bug with en and em dashes

[Pablo Rodriguez]

Dear list,

using latest beta from 2017.05.09 10:14 with the following sample:

    \starttext
    \startTEXpage[offset=1em]
    -- ---

    – —
    \stopTEXpage
    \stoptext

I get as result:

    -- ----
    -- ----

Ligatures aren’t converted and even real en and em dashes are converted
to hyphens.

Could anyone confirm the issue?

Many thanks for your help,

Pablo
