Hi, This might not be the right place to ask this question, but want to give it a try anyway! I've installed the ConTeXt minimals (Mark IV!) recently, and running the command: context --version yields the following output: ... MTXrun | current version: 2010.07.30 11:35 Now I want to generate a few plots using the graph-module (by John D. Hobby) of MetaPost, which I used in the past to make high-quality plots. But when I add the following statement: input graph ; to the preamble of my MetaPost file and run the command: mpost plot.mp The run aborts with the following messages:
texnum.mp texnum.mpx ! Unable to make mpx file. l.17 init_numbers(btex $-$etex, btex$1$etex, btex${\times}10$etex, Transcript written on texnum.log. TeXExec | processing graphic 'texnum.mpx' TeXExec | runtime: 1.547143
texnum.mp texnum.mpx ! Unable to make mpx file. l.17 init_numbers(btex $-$etex, btex$1$etex, btex${\times}10$etex, Transcript written on plot.log.
So where to go from here? Do I need to install additional TeX related stuff to get it working? Anybody any suggestions, please? Thanks in advance! Regards, Gerard Verhaag P.S. By the way, if I use MetaPost within ConTeXt using: \loadmarkfile{m-graph} \starttext \startMPcode . /[MetaPost code] . / \stopMPcode \stoptext than everything works just fine!
