ConTeXt MkIV doesn’t support vertical writing but with a little bit of TeX knowledge it’s possible to add it, the result is not perfect [1] (there is no space between the characters) but it shows it can be done. > When the Latin alphabet enters, as is becoming more and > more common, especially in technical literature, the monospacing breaks > down, and common practice is to just typeset paragraphs in block form, > adding the necessary spacing. But it wouldn’t harm when ConTeXt would support monospaced output, proportional spacing seems to be for the moment the only format.
