Dear Readers,
I have been playing about with METAFUN over the last few days trying to get a feel for it. I was wondering if it is possible to save the graphics produced in a context document for use outside. On looking at the Metapost manual I see you can using the following commands save a graphic as an svg file.
forget about producing svg this way ... (1) it would not work with fonts, and (2) mplib in luatex has svg and png output disabled. % file: mpsvg.tex \startMPpage draw textext("Does it work?") ; draw boundingbox currentpicture enlarged 2mm withcolor "darkred" ; \stopMPpage % process context mpsvg mutool convert -o mpsvg.svg mpsvg.pdf Hans ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | www.pragma-ade.nl | www.pragma-pod.nl -----------------------------------------------------------------
