I tried to do some manual kerning tweaking on some of the characters, and I used \kern to achieve this. However, this low level command seems (I quite sure about that) to influence the allignment of the paragraph, which is centered by \steluitlijnenin[midden] in the preamble. So, my question is easy: is there a high level command in ConTeXt which does manaual kerning and doesn't affect allignment? Thanks for your comments, Maarten Wisse P.S. Just a note which might be interesting for ConTeXt users. Hans uses Lucida fonts quite frequently, but they are not free. Now, in XFree86 4.0, the new version of Windows which is used on Linux distributions, Y&Y has freely provided a font called Lucidux which is a clone of Lucida. Make tfm and vf out of that, and you have at least Lucida, Lucida Bright and Lucida Sans. Nice for presentations for instance. Just change the presentation style file to Lucidux and it's fixed. _________________________________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com.
