Creating a semi-transparent backdrop with metapost is quite simple, but I am not sure whether that works with cmyk, you'll have to try yourself. Code goes something like this:
For the records: This is, how I'll use it: \startuniqueMPgraphic{texthole} for dx = 0 upto 40: dy := dx; wa := 10 + dx; wb := \overlaywidth - dx - 10; ha := dy + 10; hb := \overlayheight - dy - 10; fill (wa,ha)--(wb,ha)--(wb,hb)--(wa,hb)--cycle withcolor transparent("normal", .04, black); endfor; \stopuniqueMPgraphic \defineoverlay[shaded][\useMPgraphic{texthole}] \starttext \rotate[rotation=12]{% \framed[height=50mm, width=50mm, frame=off, background=shaded, backgroundoffset=5mm, align=middle]% {\offset[x=1mm,y=-2mm]{\externalfigure[koe][width=50mm]}}% } \stoptext I'm glad I found \offset, because framed's offset parameter can't distinguish x and y offset. Positive offset moves right and down, negative offset moves just up - I guess that's a buglet. Greetlings from Lake Constance!
