Dear ConTeXt users, I am a Debian GNU/Linux user. I recently upgraded from an old teTeX to the latest ConTeXt in Debian. With the upgrade, however, I got a "missing cont-en.fmt" error (http://bugs.debian.org/409575) which I solved by doing a texexec --make --all, and placing the cont-en.fmt from my .texmf-config into /var/lib/texmf/web2c and ran texhash. Things seem to be OK. But now, whenever I do texexec <filename>, I get a PDF with many mathematical symbols missing. So, I do this: texexec --dvi ee03b091.tex dvips ee03b091.dvi ps2pdf ee03b091.ps Now, this seems to work, but the fonts are not rendered as well as they used to in Acrobat. And this also does not give the fonts, but causes the same math trouble again: texexec --dvi ee03b091.tex dvips -o ee03b091.ps -Ppdf ee03b091.dvi ps2pdf ee03b091.ps What could be wrong? Is my installation broken? Can I salvage it? Thanks. Kumar

Hi Kumar, FWIW, I've had better luck with a slightly earlier version of context (before the big pdftex and lm changes): http://www.tug.org/texlive/Debian/context/context_2007.01.12.2-1_all.deb --Mike Bird

I'll do the downgrade and get back to you. Thanks for the suggestion. Kumar -- Kumar Appaiah, 462, Jamuna Hostel, Indian Institute of Technology Madras, Chennai - 600 036
