Many thanks for your reply, Hans.

The new definition is fine for me.

BTW, I have an issue issue with the font feature. I cannot have both
default and the opbd as font features, such as in:

\setuplayout[topspace=1cm, height=middle, footer=0cm, header=0cm]
\definefontfeature[newfeature]
[protrusion=opentype, opbd=yes, script=grek]
\definefontfamily[mainface][rm]
[GFS Didot][features={default, newfeature}]
\setupbodyfont[mainface, 325pt]
\setupalign[hanging]
\starttext
Α\\Ἇ
\stoptext

I guess this may be related to "script=grek", but I don’t know whehter
I’m doing something wrong.

I agree. These are excessive values, but this is rather a very
particular case.

Hanging diacritics are used only in poetry, not in prose:
https://www.researchgate.net/publication/2417759_From_Unicode_to_Typography_a_Case_Study_the_Greek_Script
(section “1.6.2 Hanging Diacritics” on page 21).

Many thanks for your help,

Pablo

Hans,

I added lfbd values for GFS Didot (attached) to get hanging diacritics
in Greek.

The attached PDF document is the optput from the following code:

 \showframe
 \setuplayout[topspace=1cm, height=middle, footer=0cm, header=0cm]
 \definefontfeature[default][default]
 [protrusion=quality, opbd=yes, script=grek]

 \stoptext

BTW, to get pure lfbd values, I had to replace line 361 from
font-imp-quality lua with:

local p = d/1000


two issues:

- no 1000 but units
- we need to be able to go less extreme, so we keep factor

so something

local p = lfactor * d/units


Raw lfbd and rtbd values from the font could be set with
protrusion=opentype (or a similar option).

I hope it is clear now why raw values from the font are needed.


fwiw it looks a  bit too excessive to me (i'm not sure if graphical 
elements like those accents which are part of the character needs that 
much protrusion)



Many thanks for your help,

Pablo

Sorry, Luigi, I forgot that we had a maximum size for the message
(attachments included).

The PDF document isn’t that big (30KB). The font with the OT lfbd values
is a bigger file (177KB).
