[NTG-context] remove full stop after a title ending with punctuation
Dear List, If an article is "How about this?", in the bib list, it will be printed like author1, author2, ..., How about this?. Journal name... I am trying to remove "." after "?" From reading documents, I think I should change (bibl-apa) \insertarttitle{\bgroup }{\egroup. }{}% Right now it will add "." in all cases. Is it possible that I can change it to conditional statement. Something like if the original title ends with punctuation, do nothing, otherwise, add ".". Hope that I made myself clear. Thank you!

Unfortunately Ladoga and Quant lack the Kyrgyz and Kasakh glyphs that I need. (They have special characters for „German umlaut sounds“ ü and ö, as well as ng). I don’t think Baltica is very legible, even if it fits the style. Literaturnaya seems a bit too light, but as „favourite text face of Soviet typography“ it surely fits the bill. I’ll probably go for Journal+Sans, but I didn’t scan the whole Paratype library yet.

[NTG-context] Problem with pdf output for FeedARead.com
Colleagues A friend of mine asked me to produce a small book of three of her short stories for FeedARead.com from a word document. On looking at the site I suggested I do a conversion to pdf since it would look much better and FeedARead recommend uploading pdf over word as well. So I set about using Context to produce a simple pdf for upload using the structure below: \definepapersize[leela][width=5in, height=8in] \setuppapersize[leela][leela] \setuplayout[backspace=0.75in,cutspace=0.5in,width=fit] \setupindenting[yes,medium,next] \setuppagenumbering[state=stop] \setupexternalfigures[location={local,default}] \setupalign[nonhyphenated] \setuphead[section-3][number=no,align=middle][alternative=doublesided,location=footer] \setuptolerance[vertical,verystrict] \setuptolerance[horizontal,verytolerant] \starttext \midaligned{\tfd{Title Page}} \page FeedAReed blurb and copyright notice goes here. \setupcombinedlist[content][list={chapter,section,subsection}] \completecontent \page[empty] \setuppagenumbering[state=start,alternative=doublesided,location=footer] \startsection[title={Knuth}] \input knuth\par \stopsection \page \startsection[title={Zapf}] \input zapf\par \stopsection \page \startsection[title={Tufte}] \input tufte\par \stopsection \stoptext As you can see it's nothing fancy but is produces nice copy. However, when my friend uploaded to FeedARead she received back this comment: /Please note that you have uploaded TWO pages of your book per one 5 inch wide x 8 inch high page e.g. on your file there would be two book pages of print per page and not one per page as required./ I did notice that when viewed in Adobe Reader, V11.0.6, it displays two pages on the screen at a time but on checking the documents properties it shows the correct page size so I thought it was OK. I've had a look on the wiki but haven't found anything obviously wrong in what I've done above. Is their something I'm missing in \definepapersize or \setuppapersize? I really don't want to have to tell her to upload the word doc.
