While I'm testing some examples in details.pdf (http://www.pragma-ade.com/temp/details.pdf), a curious thing happened. Let me assume that I have the following test file (test.tex) which was extracted from details.pdf (p.13) I generated two PDF files, test-1.pdf and test-2.pdf, by the following ways, respectively. 1. The first way Just ran "texexec --pdf test", and got the attached PDF file, test-1.pdf. (Please see the attached file test-1.log too.) 2. The second way (step by step) (a) "texexec --pdf --once test" (b) "texutil --references test" (c) "texexec --pdf --once test" (d) "mpost mpgraph" (e) "texexec --pdf --once test" The curious thing was that the two PDF files were different, especially the embedded MetaPost graphics were different. In my opinion, test-2.pdf seemed to be the right result. === BEGIN test.tex === \setupcolors[state=start] \definecolor[infogray][darkgray] \definecolor[textgray][lightgray] \definetextbackground[intro] [backgroundcolor=infogray, backgroundoffset=.25cm, offset=.5cm, frame=off, location=paragraph, color=white] \definetextbackground[subintro] [backgroundcolor=textgray, backgroundoffset=0pt, offset=0pt, frame=off, location=text, color=blue] \starttext \starttextbackground[intro] A rather common way to draw attention to a passage, is to add a background. In this chapter we will therefore discuss how to enhance your document with \starttextbackground [subintro] colorful areas that either or not follow the shape of your paragraph. \stoptextbackground\ Be warned: this chapter has so many backgrounds that you should consider wearing sunglasses. \stoptextbackground \stoptext === END test.tex === Best, ChoF. -- *** ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ *** ^ ^ | ChoF := Jin-Hwan Cho | *^ ^* o | chofchof@ktug.or.kr | * o * *** ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ *** *^ ^* | Project Manager of | ^ ^ * O * | DVIPDFMx and MiKTeX-KTUG | O ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ | Research Fellow, School of Mathematics | | Korea Institute for Advanced Study | ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
