In the entry "Contextual space before line break", from Sept. 24, 2007, Sergey wrote:

"Your lookups can be set a way to do something in any case except something that is not space is preceeding it. It will also cover cases when you are at the beginning of the line. This can be done using EXCEPT keyword in context."

I have a similar problem, but a little more complex.

I need to substitute mark X for mark Y (X -> Y) when X is on the first letter of a word (typed after the letter).

The simplest rule should be:

Substitute = X -> Y

Context Before | After = |

But this doesn't work at the begining (the first word) of the line (leave out the first word of the paragraph, for now).

How can I combine an EXCLUDE (for the ) and an "INCLUDE"  (for the ) in one context rule (in one line), to make this work everywere.

 

Thank you

Marzel

You need one context to fillter marks over first letter:

EXCEPT |

O, if this should be done only over particular letters in first position, you will need two:

EXCEPT |
|

Sergey

- VOLT UI guide. Pretty old, but describes most of VOLT functionality, including mark filtering: http://www.microsoft.com/typography/VOLT%20Release%20Notes/default.mspx
- VOLT 1.2 release notes explains EXCEPT keyword: http://groups.msn.com/MicrosoftVOLTuserscommunity/version12releasenotes.msnw

Thanks,
