Dear list,

the trick. Here's a MWE for the purpose of demonstration:

\mainlanguage[russian]
\setupindenting[yes,medium,first]

\stoptext


Is the a way for automating such negative tracking?


I seem to remember seeing a demo (either by Hans or Idris) for Arabic
typesetting where some optimizations were performed after the
linebreaks. I wonder if similar approach could be used here.


that assumes features in the font that can make text run wider or narrower

easier is to use \setupalign[stretch,tolerant]
