Re: [NTG-context] Context-minimal installation problem.

You are using ConTeXt minimals. You are using texexec to generate the ConTeXt formats (cont-en.fmt etc.). Why would you expect a format file for pure pdftex to be produced?

puff ... true . I was confused with plain.fmt .... I'm getting older, nothing to say. John, pdftex.fmt is a matter of something like $> pdftex -ini \\dump You need a pdftex.tex , and there is not a pdftex.tex in minimals . BTW why do you need pdftex if you have texexec ? -- luigi
