Hello, I'm trying to use some MetaPost-generated graphics with ConTeXt, but I seem to be unable to do so. I have a file test.1 in the same directory as the ConTeXt source, which is as minimal as: \starttext \input tufte \placefigure[left] {Esempio di settore circolare} {\externalfigure[test.1]} \input knuth \stoptext but it seems like it can't find the file test (no extension); I tried adding options [type=mps] or [method=mps] or both, but each fails with a different error: either it looks for test.mps or it looks for test.unknown ... What should I do (apart renaming the figure file)? -- Giuseppe "Oblomov" Bilotta
