Hi Mari, I can confirm the same behaviour with graphics from other sources like Illustrator - seems like ConTeXt doesn't use the CropBox (visible size) any more, but the MediaBox (full sheet). Or maybe the TrimBox (cut size). It would make sense to have than configurable, but the change in behaviour is really inconvenient.

Hello!
After updating ConTeXt I found out that it has suddenly started to ignore the crop in some of my pdf graphics. These graphics look ok (=cropped) in Acrobat and SumatraPDF, but when the graphic is placed, the cropbox (?) is ignored and there's all this blank space around the graphic, space that shouldn't be there. This is new behaviour, all of the graphics worked as expected in my previous ConTeXt (from September 2017). Minimal sample is attached to this email, hopefully it is small enough to make it to the mailing list.
After a quick look it seems that all the problematic graphics are pdf output from CorelDraw, from different versions of that. Oddly the problem doesn't affect all cropped graphics that originate from CorelDraw, just some of them. There are even graphics that have been outputted from one and same file where one works and the other doesn't.
If this only concerns files from Corel (and not those I cropped in Acrobat), I can fix it in Corel if necessary. However, it would be preferable if ConTeXt can be forced to take the cropping into account. I tried looking for a solution on the wiki, but it wasn't very helpful (or I don't know what I'm looking for). I thought adding something to \externalfigure might do the trick, but there doesn't seem to be a suitable key.
Thanks, Mari
