When installing minimals you have MKII, XeTeX and MKIV. I understand that you should normally use MKIV, but when are the other two used?

MKII can be used either with pdftex or xetex (as you wish, compare advantages/disadvantages). MKIV can only be used with luatex.

You have to differ between ConTeXt »versions« (mkii, mkiv) and TeX backends (pdftex, xetex, luatex).

And where do I find the advantages/disadvantages? Or can I just always use MKIV? -- Cecil Westerhof
