Hi all, I'm new to ConTeXt but not new to LaTeX and I really enjoy to learn again something new and that seems to be cleaner in syntax at least. By reading the excursion, I typed something that did not work on my computer. It is about the background on paragraphs. I've a big black background and we cannot see the text. I attached the PDF file produced. I used texexec : % texexec TeXExec | version 6.2.0 - 1997-2006 - PRAGMA ADE/POD and the following code : \setupbackground[background=screen,corner=round] \starttext \startbackground Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Nam semper mi pellentesque diam. Vestibulum tellus erat, vestibulum vel, blandit ac, placerat at, metus. Integer rhoncus neque vel dolor. Sed dapibus arcu eu lorem. In eleifend nunc nec justo. Maecenas sagittis ultricies orci. Proin nec est. Integer dictum dictum felis. Mauris nibh dui, tempus eget, auctor et, ultrices nec, nulla. Cum sociis natoque penatibus et magnis dis parturient montes, nascetur ridiculus mus. Duis lacinia vehicula pede. Sed eros tellus, ultricies id, porttitor sed, bibendum quis, metus. Pellentesque et justo eu ante tristique aliquet. Quisque dui tellus, cursus sit amet, tincidunt nec, imperdiet et, nibh. Quisque sapien elit, semper ac, molestie et, dapibus vulputate, nunc. Sed in nisl. Vivamus ligula. Aliquam eros pede, iaculis vitae, imperdiet sit amet, commodo a, nibh. Pellentesque a turpis. \stopbackground \stoptext I hope to have some help and feedback about, Cheers, Antoine C.
