Hi,

Out of curiosity, I tried compiling the followingup manual with ConTeXt
LMTX 2024.09.25. I did not check the whole manual, but section 6 seems to
render fine as far as I can tell, up to two small issues (not sure whether
they are due to changes in ConTeXt or to font issues on my side):

* I had to replace NotoSansCJKtc-VF with the name of the font file
(NotoSansCJK-Regular.ttc) in followingup-directions.tex . (I suspect that
may be due to my system not having the ‘right’ font installed.

* The glyphs are not rotated in Figure 6.12. Figure 6.11 looks correct,
though.

So at least one of the methods mentioned in
followingup-directions.tex seems to work with the latest version of ConTeXt
LMTX.

Cheers,
Florent
