PDF bookmarks don't get proper formatting












0














In my document, I have two chapter titles with em commands and --- dashes, which get correctly converted to italics and em-dash in the text. But the PDF bookmarks are not converted properly:





  • em: conversion only occurs if I use syntax em{text}. If I use {em text}, this entire string is used as-is in PDF bookmark.


  • ---: conversion never occurs.


How can I get em and --- properly converted in PDF bookmarks? Below a code sample and screenshot (in SumatraPDF):



setupinteraction[state=start]
placebookmarks[chapter, section][chapter, section]
setupinteractionscreen[option=bookmark]
setuptagging[state=start]
starttext
chapter[title={{em Chapter} --- a note}]

Some paragraph.

section{{em A year from monday} --- from John Cage}

Some paragraph.

chapter[title={em{Chapter} --- another note}]

Some paragraph.

section{em{Silence} --- from John Cage}

Some paragraph.

stoptext


Screenshot (note bookmarks with --- and em appearing):
