Re: [NTG-context] calculating optimal height of textblock
One thing, I've noticed:
Lines=40 seems to add more space than strictly necessary.
Why is that?
Example:
===
\setupbodyfont[10pt]
\definepapersize[test][width=140mm,height=208mm]
\setuppapersize[test][test]
\setuppagenumbering[location={footer,middle}]
\setuplayout[reset]
\setuplayout[backspace=17mm,
topspace=19mm,
header=0mm,
headerdistance=0mm,
footerdistance=4mm,
footer=5mm,
width=105mm,
%height=177mm, % does not suffice for a complete line
height=178mm, % enough for a complete line
%lines=40, % adds a bit of extra whitespace below the
last line
rightmargin=0mm,
leftmargin=0mm,
]
% \setupalign[line]
% \setuptolerance[vertical,verytolerant,stretch]
% \setupinterlinespace[stretch=0.01]
\startsetups[mypenalties]
\setdefaultpenalties
\setpenalties\clubpenalties{2}{0}
\setpenalties\widowpenalties{2}{0}
\setpenalties\displaywidowpenalties{2}{0}
\stopsetups
\setuplayout[setups=mypenalties]
%\showframe
\showmakeup
\showsetups
\starttext
\dorecurse{5}{\input knuth\par}
\stoptext
