Hello Hans, In order to be able to "--make plain", four files are missing in the standalone distribution, namely tex/generic/hyphen/hyphen.tex fonts/.../manfnt.[afm|pfb|tfm] Would it make sense to add them? Morover, texexec --make plain creates a file web2c/pdfetex/pdfetex.fmt, but when running pdfetex, it expects "pdfetex.fmt" to exist. Or is plain.fmt meant to be used with texexec? Thanks, Mojca

this has to do with progname and such; you may try to use -fmt=plain Hans ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | fax: 038 477 53 74 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl -----------------------------------------------------------------

I am in favour of that. I often use plain for small test files. Taco
