Wolfgang, thanks so much for your help so far.
I was able to take the code and make it work correctly to stretch the chapter
title. What I want is two lines for a chapter head. For example,
Line 1: "Chapter One"
Line 2: "Title for Chap 1"
I want line 1 to be stretched. Everything I have tried does not work. I can
get the "Chapter" word to stretch, but not the whole line (and it should
probably be treated as a whole line when stretching). I was never able to get
the chapter number (now a word) to stretch.
So how do I grab the output for line 1 and then stretch it?
Here's a sample of what I have without any stretching:
\def\Myheader#1#2{%
\framedtext[width=0.60\textwidth, frame=off, align=middle]{%
\vbox{\headtext{chapter}~#1 \blank #2}}}
\def\englishnumbers#1{
\ifcase#1 \or ONE\or TWO\or THREE\or FOUR\or FIVE\fi}
\defineconversion[englishnumbers][\englishnumbers]
\setupsection[chapter][conversion=englishnumbers]
\setuphead [chapter][
command=\Myheader,
textcommand=\bfd,
]
\setupheadtext[chapter=CHAPTER] % used by \headtext
\starttext
\chapter{Title for Chap 1}
\processfile{tufte}
\stoptext
P.S. If there's a better way to do the number->word conversion, let me know.
