Greetings all,
On a related note, is there a similar (or dissimilar for that matter)
solution to margin kerning with the bib-module?
I wasn't even aware that there is a problem. The module uses a rather
straightforward list, so if hanging works for the TOC, it should work
for the bib module. And if not, then both should require the same fix.

To answer my own question:
To get margin kerning in the footnotes/endnotes as well as in the
body text, put
\usetypescript[serif,sans,mono,mm][hanging][normal]
\setupalign[hz,hanging]
\setupfootnotes[align={hz,hanging}]
before the fonts are installed.
indeed; this has to do with the fact that pdftex (tex) has some nasty
global font assignments and optimizations hard coded

[NTG-context] xml, context and hyphenation
Hello, I have problems with hyphenation when german öäü are in these words. I'm processing xml files which are in unicode. The font encoding for the pdf is EC (as I was told there are problems with OT1 encoded fonts). Any suggestions?

Re: [NTG-context] TeX chemistry (was: alignment of figures)
Many thanks for all the suggestions on incorporating chemical formula. PPCHEMTEX now looks like something to play with, but not something I will switch to whith a deadline for writing the book coming closer.From the publisher I got an example of the layout (a book they had published), and they have symbols in the inside-margins. The "binding" (gluing?) seems to allow that. It's not pretty, but the book opens flat on a table.And this might interest or amuse the professionals on this site: half a year ago, I sent in a "test chapter" as a pdf file, accompanied by a tex-file. I expected them (whoever is responsible) to say they wanted it in Word (they had told me that based on the test-chapter, they would prepare a Word-"mask" for me to fill in text and figures), but to my surprise they thought it looked pretty good, and that if I could "do just a few minor changes", they could print it as is - but that they didn't have anybody who "knows TeX". Now of course I'm a bit nervous, not to say afraid, because I'm pretty sure the "minor changes" will be way beyond my capabilities...Cheers, Jörg. Prof. Dr.med.
