Hi, I have been trying to get Context working properly for the last 4 hours or so. I don't know what to do. I found out that the commands \defaultlanguage \dogetupsometextprefix occur in a file called lang-lab.tex. But I don't know what to do with this knowledge. I am ahead a deadline for a publication. Help is greatly appreciated! Regards, Robert Thanks for the link to the faq. I did what was said there: 1. I installed the lm fonts 2. I emended the miktex.ini file according to the specifications The texexec -- make en nl still fails (see end of log) My test file, the one I am working on, apparently processes normally, but the output is dvi rather than pdf. References are not processed. Something is still wrong. Could anyone help me out? Help greatly appreciated!
