If protrusion has to apply other values than the ones besides opbd, the
values for optical bounds aren’t reliable for accurate glyph
positioning. Sorry, but otherwise there is no need for optical margins
in OpenType (standard protrusion would be all that is needed).
Kerning might be selectively applied, such as in:
\startluacode
fonts.handlers.otf.addfeature {
name = "leftbounds",
type = "single",
data = {
Ἠ = { -212, 0, -212, 0 },
Ὧ = { -196, 0, -196, 0 },
}
}
\stopluacode
\definefontfeature[default][default][protrusion=quality]
\definefontfeature[leftbounds][leftbounds=yes]
\setupfirstline
[alternative=word, n=1, style={\feature[+][leftbounds]}]
\showframe
\setuplayout[page]
\definefontfamily[mainface][rm][Typographica Old Standard]
\definefontfamily[mainface][tt][Latin Modern Mono]
\setupbodyfont[mainface, 300pt]
\setupalign[hanging]
\startbuffer
«a\par
«b\par
Ω\par
Ὧ\par
Ἠ\par
\stopbuffer
\starttext
\setupparagraphintro[each][\setfirstline]
\getbuffer
\stoptext
At least to get Greek hanging diacritics, I think this is the way to go.
It would be extremely useful to enable a \setuplineintro for verse.
It would be also useful to have a function that substracts the width of
two given glyphs. (This is exactly the amount to get hanging diacritics
properly kerned.)
Many thanks for your help,
Pablo
