[NTG-context] Russia (cyrillic letters)

2005-02-13 Thread Rob Ermers

Thanks Mikael for your advise. However, I have a 1000 page document which I have been typesetting in Latex thusfar, and I am considering shifting to Context. There are some other things to say about this project, but the first step would be to get koi8 working. I have attached my sample file.
