Hi Hraban & Seyal
I can confirm that converting the *.svg file into a *.pdf file displays the colour shades correctly ... (I used Gimp to export the smile.svg file to a smile03.pdf file).
Gimp is a really bad choice in this case, since it converts vectors into pixels. And if you place a PDF, no further conversion is needed. If you have problems with SVGs, use Inkscape (or some commercial alternative like Affinity Designer or Adobe Illustrator) for PDF conversion.
The MWE below works correctly, even if you have to make finer adjustments to place the figure in a precise position on the page. As I'm in the process of enriching and clarifying a few pages of the ConTeXt wiki and the French wikibook, I'm interested in the details concerning the position of figures, images and photos etc. So please let me know (in private mail) how you make your documents (a MWE will do).
Position options: * relative placement as floats, i.e. \placefigure * absolute placement on layers, i.e. \setlayer * relative corrections with \offset (also within floats) Hraban
