With flow.tex flow.pdf is generated. When generating again flow2.pdf is generated. (And every time it is generated again, there are 8 more blanco pages inserted.) When deleting the flowchart part in flow.tex, flow3.pdf is generated. This looks okay. So there should be something wrong with my flowchart code. But I do not see anything. What is going wrong here?

Don't use \startcolor[white] to change the color of the main text, use \setupcolors[state=start,textcolor=white] instead.

That works. I got the code from http://www.tug.org/pracjourn/2006-2/schmitz/. I'll notify him about the problem. Strange that there is only a problem when using a flowchart. -- Cecil Westerhof

there is a manual on charts at:

http://www.pragma-ade.nl/overview.htm

In your case you need to setup the flowchart and indicate the number of cells per x an y direction.

I use now the attached file. But nx needs to be 3. Then I get flow.pdf. But I would expect that it should be 1 (I am only using one column.) But when using 2 I get flow2.pdf. Why is this?

In case that you want to let the chart break over more pages call the flowchart with \FLOWcharts[...] instead of \FLOWchart[...]

In this case I want everuthing on one page.

backgroundcolor name white

It is not possible to also set the ink color? Also is it possible to get the text in the shape left-aligned? I am using: \text{{\tfd S}ource} Is there a smarter way? When I want to use \tfa or instead of a bigger font an different colored font, I need to change it everywhere. (In this case not a big problem, but still not very nice.) -- Cecil Westerhof
