Hi Emanuel,
Thanks for the example. In fact I don’t need vertical typesetting for my
Japanese text, so your example works fine for me.
Actually I had to change the name of the font to Hiragino Mincho ProN W3 in
order to get your example work.
Also I think with the recent versions of ConTeXt there is no need to add
\enableregime[utf]
because ConTeXt is working with Unicode any way.
I added also a line to define a math font, since I have read here on the
mailing list that a math font should be set… Maybe someone among the experts
can tell us if I am right, or if one has to set other fonts as well.
So your example which works fine for me is now:
% begin simple-japanese.tex
\definefontfamily [JapaneseFont] [rm] [Hiragino Mincho ProN W3]
\definefontfamily [JapaneseFont] [ss] [Hiragino Mincho ProN W3]
\definefontfamily [JapaneseFont] [mm] [math] [lucidaot] [default]
\setupbodyfont[JapaneseFont,14pt]
\setupruby[location=top,voffset=-1.6ex]
\setupwhitespace[big]
\starttext
\ruby{僕}{ぼく}はもう\ruby{寝}{ね}る。
お\ruby{休}{やす}みなさい＾＿＾
\stoptext
%end simple-japanese.tex
Best regards: Otared
