So your problem has nothing to do with Greek hyphenation, it’s about the way you define your \CritApp command. You could have shown the same problem with an English text. It appears that injecting the word via your macro breaks hyphenation, but I assume Hans and Wolfgang will know better about that. Example without Greek:
\showframe \mainlanguage[en] \setuplanguage[en][patterns={en, agr}] \definepapersize[HippPaper][width=6in, height=9in] \setuppapersize[HippPaper] \definefontfamily[mainface][serif][FreeSerif] \setupbodyfont[mainface, 13pt] \unexpanded\def\doCritApp#1#2#3% {\startlinenote[#1]{#2 #3}#2\stoplinenote[#1]} \newcounter\MyCounter \unexpanded\def\CritApp {\doglobal\increment\MyCounter \normalexpanded{\doCritApp{Varia:\MyCounter}}} \starttext supercalifragilisticexpialidocious \CritApp{supercalifragilisticexpialidocious}{test} \stoptext On 18 Sep 2014, at 08:33, Pablo Rodriguez <oi...@gmx.es> wrote: > Many thanks for the reply, Thomas. > > My sample is the following: > > \showframe > \mainlanguage[en] > \setuplanguage[en][patterns={en, agr}] > \definepapersize[HippPaper][width=6in, height=9in] > \setuppapersize[HippPaper] > > \definefontfamily[mainface][serif][FreeSerif] > \setupbodyfont[mainface, 13pt] > > \unexpanded\def\doCritApp#1#2#3% > {\startlinenote[#1]{#2 #3}#2\stoplinenote[#1]} > > \newcounter\MyCounter > \unexpanded\def\CritApp > {\doglobal\increment\MyCounter > \normalexpanded{\doCritApp{Varia:\MyCounter}}} > > %~ \def\CritApp#1#2{#1} > > \starttext > με τὴν τέχνην ταύτην \CritApp{ἴσα}{neut. pl. acc. adverbial, “equally > to” + dat.} γενέτῃσιν ἐμοῖς, καὶ βίου \CritApp{κοινώσεσθαι}{fut. inf. > with ὄμνυμι “to be a partner of” + gen.} > \stoptext > > After reading again the message that gave me the macro, hyphenation > seems to be an unsolved issue with that command. > > Many tganks for your help, -- Prof. Dr. Thomas A.
