I'm using mostly default ConTeXt settings, but an editor has warned I
should avoid using hyphenation at the end of lines--at least for my
particular audience.
I've found manual text that says how to disable specific words from
being hyphenated.
Is there a whole-document switch to disable it?
You can disable hyphenation with \setupalign[nothyphenated] but this
setting alone isn't enough because now text tends to stick into the
right margin. To get better result you have to combine it with other
option like "tolerant" or "verytolerant".
The example below show also how you can use font enpansion in
combination with a lesser tolerance value to align the text on both
margins with result in smaller interword spacer than a larger tolerance
value. You can combine this with font protrusion to move punctuation
marks slightly into the margin area to have a better alignment of the
text alone.
%%%% begin example
\setupwhitespace[big]
\showframe[text][text]
\definefontfeature[default][default][expansion=quality,protrusion=quality]
\starttext
\type{alignment: default}
\samplefile{lorem}
\page
\type{alignment: nothyphenated}
\start \setupalign[nothyphenated]
\samplefile{lorem}
\stop
\page
\type{alignment: nothyphenated,flushleft}
\start \setupalign[nothyphenated,flushleft]
\samplefile{lorem}
\stop
\page
\type{alignment: nothyphenated,verytolerant}
\start \setupalign[nothyphenated,verytolerant]
\samplefile{lorem}
\stop
\page
\type{alignment: nothyphenated,tolerant,hz}
\start \setupalign[nothyphenated,tolerant,hz]
\samplefile{lorem}
\stop
\page
\type{alignment: nothyphenated,verytolerant,hanging}
\start \setupalign[nothyphenated,verytolerant,hanging]
\samplefile{lorem}
\stop

\type{alignment: nothyphenated,tolerant,hz,hanging}
\start \setupalign[nothyphenated,tolerant,hz,hanging]
