Isn't > there some error log in these printer? The error log didn't contain anything useful. I made two experiments now. First, I modified the MKIV PDF file to use the MKXL font stream, and changed the text primitives to use low chars. This renders fine on all PDF viewers I found (text is garbled, of course), but it still doesn't print. So now I'm fairly sure now the bug is in the font stream. foo.doctored.pdf Description: Adobe PDF document I finally found a tool to analyze CID fonts at https://github.com/janpe2/CFFDump I noticed two things: 1) the MKIX Top DICT INDEX doesn't contain /version, but the string is in the SID. Unfortunately merely adding it to topdict in tablewriters.cff doesn't fix the printing bug. But I'd still recommend doing so. 2) The Private DICT doesn't contain /StdHW /StdVW /StemSnapH /StemSnapV. Also BlueScale is 0. This should not matter for printing(?) but it explains why Adobe displays it differently! The hinting information is missing. Note that the code would copy this data but it's missing in the cffinfo already. I'll attach both CFF dumps here, perhaps someone finds other issues. font-0008.mkiv.dump Description: Binary data font-0008.mkxl.dump Description: Binary data cu, -- Leah Neukirchenhttps://leahneukirchen.org ___ If your question is of interest to others as well, please add an entry to the Wiki! maillist : ntg-context@ntg.nl / https://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context webpage : https://www.pragma-ade.nl / http://context.aanhet.net archive : https://bitbucket.org/phg/context-mirror/commits/ wiki : https://contextgarden.net ___
Re: [NTG-context] alternative en TOC
Its worring now. I have to add \setuplist[subsection][alternative=d] after
\setupcombinedlist[content] etc. before that line it has no effect here.
\definecombinedlist[content][part,chapter,section,subsection]
\setupcombinedlist[content][alternative=c,partnumber=no,placehead=yes,color=black,interaction=all]
\setuplist[subsection][alternative=d]
Thankyou very much.

This works for me:
\setuppapersize[A7,landscape]
\setuplist[alternative=c]
\setuplist[subsection][alternative=d]
\starttext
\placecontent
\hairline
\section{Section}
\subsection{Subsection}
\subsubsection{Subsubsection}
\stoptext
Check if your braces/brackets are right.

Since you seem to own the only printer that works ;) would you be so kind and share which model you have? We have a HP ColorFlowMFP X585 full-width highspeed duplex inkjet printer (a couple of years old, always prints ok). So far we never heard of printing failures elsewhere. I also wondered whether bisecting the snapshot-repo would work. But I only have one LMTX binary; this font handling should be all in lua code tho? It makes no sense to compare luametatex and luatex .. it's different machinery. Btw, some in the thread mention issues (like bad looking heros shapes) but in your case there is no print at all, so that is different. Isn't there some error log in these printer?

As I expected, starting the numbering from 31 doesn't help either---still blank pages. (Note that with DejaVu Sans the numbering from 1 works fine.)
