[NTG-context] Re: exporting to epub

Thanks Wolfgang. I located mtx-epub.lua and now I am getting with mtxrun --script mtx-epub --make --purge test the error mtx-epub | unknown specificaton file 'test-export/test-pub.lua' for ‘test' I tried other things than ’test’ to no avail. I am using the most recent minimal, so I think I have everything Matthias

Hi, I am trying to export to epub. I found epub-mkiv-demo.tex and export-example.tex, and both compile fine, generating the XML tree. The instructions say that I have to run mtxrun --script epub --make --purge test but I get unknown script ‘epub.lua’. I don’t have epub.lua anywhere.

The filename of the scrip is mtx-epub.lua and the path is <TEXROOT>\tex\texmf-context\scripts\context\lua

...

It also says that the console would tell me what script to run, but it only tells me mtx-context | pdfview methods: auto default evince okular pdfxcview sumatra zathura, current method: sumatra (directives_pdfview_method) pdfview | command: wine "sumatrapdf.exe" -reuse-instance -bg-color 0xCCCCCC "epub-mkiv-demo.pdf" 1>/dev/null 2>/dev/null & The directories with the XML trees contain a script epub-mkiv-demo-pub.lua which I can run, but it doesn’t seem to do anything. I am clearly doing something wrong. Any hints on how to proceed will be much appreciated.

It's possible your installation is missing files, the best solution is to use the minimal version from the pragma site: https://www.pragma-ade.nl/install.htm
