Hello The file uhyphens.tex is just a list of word hyphenations where I don't agree with the breaks that TeX gives (I insist on pre-1980s rules for English!). For example:
\hyphenation{% ..... abo-lished ..... con-tri-butes ..... } At the moment I am using XeTeX-type font calls while I work out other aspects of ConTexT. If that is all that is holding things up I can go over to ConTexT's native system if necessary, though in a typical file header I would have dozens of fonts to load. Here is what I have at present: \definefont[ubsreight][file:BaskervilleMTPro-Regular*oldstyle at 8pt] \definefont[ubsieight][file:BaskervilleMTPro-Italic*oldstyle at 8pt] \definefont[ubsbeight][file:BaskervilleMTPro-Italic*oldstyle at 8pt] \definefont[ubspreight][file:BaskervilleMTPro-Regular*altfont at 8pt] \definefont[ubsrten][file:BaskervilleMTPro-Regular*oldstyle at 10pt] \definefont[ubsiten][file:BaskervilleMTPro-Italic*oldstyle at 10pt] \definefont[ubsbten][file:BaskervilleMTPro-Italic*oldstyle at 10pt] \definefont[ubsprten][file:BaskervilleMTPro-Regular*altfont at 10pt] \definefont[runheadrom][file:BaskervilleMTPro-Regular*altfont at 10.5pt] \definefont[runheadit][file:BaskervilleMTPro-Italic*altfont at 10.5pt] Best wishes John *🇪🇺 * Слава Україні! * 🇺🇦* <http://www.avg.com/email-signature?utm_medium=email&utm_source=link&utm_campaign=sig-email&utm_content=webmail> Virus-free.www.avg.com <http://www.avg.com/email-signature?utm_medium=email&utm_source=link&utm_campaign=sig-email&utm_content=webmail> <#DAB4FAD8-2DD7-40BB-A1B8-4E2AA1F9FDF2> On Fri, 20 Jun 2025 at 12:26, Wolfgang Schuster < wolfgang.schuster.li...@gmail.com> wrote: > Am 20.06.2025 um 12:42 schrieb John Was: > > Hello > > > > I am using a very short experimental file of five pages to acquaint > > myself with ConTexT, and find that processing takes a long time (over a > > minute or sometimes over two minutes) because at every run it is > > checking on paths etc. - mainly verifying and searching for fonts. > > > > Is there some way to prevent this, either by a command within the file > > or by giving something after -- when I invoke ConText (which I do from > > the Windows command line)? > > > > I shall paste below a short section of a very long log (1452 lines) so > > that ConTexperts can see what I mean. > > > > Best wishes > > > > John *🇪🇺 * Слава Україні!*🇺🇦 > > * > > > > system > > > system > ConTeXt ver: 2025.02.28 18:12 LMTX fmt: 2025.6.8 > > int: english/english > > system > > > system > 'cont-new.mkxl' loaded > > open source > level 1, order 1, name 'C:/texlive/2025/texmf-dist/ > > tex/context/base/mkxl/cont-new.mkxl' > > system > beware: some patches loaded from cont-new.mkiv > > close source > level 1, order 1, name 'C:/texlive/2025/texmf-dist/ > > tex/context/base/mkxl/cont-new.mkxl' > > system > 'cont-sys.mkxl' loaded > > open source > level 1, order 2, name 'C:/texlive/2025/texmf-dist/ > > tex/context/texlive/cont-sys.mkxl' > > close source > level 1, order 2, name 'C:/texlive/2025/texmf-dist/ > > tex/context/texlive/cont-sys.mkxl' > > system > files > jobname './GHILexp', input './GHILexp.tex', > > result './GHILexp' > > fonts > latin modern fonts are not preloaded > > languages > language 'en' is active > > open source > level 1, order 3, name './GHILexp.tex' > > fonts > checks > registering extra script 'auto' > > fonts > preloading latin modern fonts (second stage) > > fonts > 'fallback modern rm 12pt' is loaded > > backend > profiles > setting format 'pdf/ua-2' to 'pdf/ua-2' > > backend > profiles > forcing pdf version 2.0, compression level > > 3, object compression level 3 > > backend > profiles > permitted colorspaces: rgb 'yes', cmyk 'yes' > > colors > defining > supported models: gray 'true', rgb 'true', > > cmyk 'true', spot 'true' > > transparencies > support > transparency is supported > > viewerlayers > viewerlayers are not supported > > backend > xmp > using file 'C:/texlive/2025/texmf-dist/tex/ > > context/base/mkiv/lpdf-pua.xml' > > open source > level 2, order 4, name 'D:/TEXFILES/TEXINPUT/TEXDOCS/ > > UNIDEFS/uhyphens.tex' > > close source > level 2, order 4, name 'D:/TEXFILES/TEXINPUT/TEXDOCS/ > > UNIDEFS/uhyphens.tex' > > Why is uhyphens.tex loaded and what is its content? > > > structure > sectioning > chapter @ level 2 : 0.1 -> The rain in > > Spain... > > fonts > defining > font 'BaskervilleMTPro-Regular', feature > > 'locl', script 'latn', no language 'dflt' > > fonts > names > font database has mismatching configuration > > and file hashes > > Show your font setup, something is wrong with it and triggers a refresh > of the database. > > Wolfgang > > > ___________________________________________________________________________________ > If your question is of interest to others as well, please add an entry to > the Wiki! > > maillist : ntg-context@ntg.nl / > https://mailman.ntg.nl/mailman3/lists/ntg-context.ntg.nl > webpage : https://www.pragma-ade.nl / https://context.aanhet.net (mirror) > archive : https://github.com/contextgarden/context > wiki : https://wiki.contextgarden.net > > ___________________________________________________________________________________ >
