I've followed this thread with interest.... What about the windows stand-alone distribution, here? Would it be any different? I installed ImageMagick and enabled the shell-escape, but I still get the dummy boxes.
Can you send the logs? The only explanation that I might have is that either: - texmfstart.exe hasn't been updated for some time (cont-win.zip has to be fetched and the old exe file has to be replaced every now and then) - or you need at least ConTeXt beta version 2006-08-16 (so you really need to "ctxtools --update" or to unzip the latest beta over existing files) - which version of XeTeX do you use (I have 0.995, but I doubt that some major change has been made recently; contrary: making "diff" against the latest stable ConTeXt version resulted in a file of approximate size 660 kB) (I'm also working with the standalone distro on Windows.) But what exactly do you mean by "I enabled the shell-escape"? Isn't it enabled by default already (contrary to other distributions such as MikTeXt)? Mojca
