Re: Help : pdf figure is black ! (Maurice Diamantini)
From: Maurice Diamantini
I'm trying to switch from Latex + pstrick to latex3 and Metapost=20 (alias context :-)
Yes, I know context is not latex3, but I realy think it could be ! Thats why I'm going to switch from latex to context.
Has
\externalfigure[01-problematique.pst.pdf][width=0.4\textwidth]
also the black background?
Yes, that is what is was first tried.
Can you upload the figure somewhere?
http://www.ensta.fr/~diam/pub/context_test/ - 01-problematique.pst.pdf : the figure that now works because I'v haded a first white psframe (in the pstricks code) - 09-coutReduits.pst.pdf : A figure that becomme black in context but a small party which had a white psframe in it. Thank to it I found the previous solution The tex/pstricks source for these two figure a provide too. - ucp_latex_seminar.pdf : The final document produiced whith latex + seminar + pstricks that I want to reproduice with context + pstrick then, later, with either metapost or pdftricks. - ucp_context_test.pdf : the first try whith context and all the black figures So, I feel the pdf figures are "transparents", but I don't know how to paint the context background in "white" instead od "black". But nox, I can add a big white rectangle as the first line of all pstricks "pspicture".
P.S. I think that the "Context" name is a bad choice, because it's difficult to find on the web (to much pages are found) It would be better to name it "ConTeX" !
Are you giving the string "tex" in your search-engine if you are looking for TeX?
yes that is how I do (sometimes I also add "pagma")

\setupcolors[state=start] .... [background=color,backgroundcolor=white] should work ok btw, there is a module m-pstricks that some of the users on this list are using that you can use to directly include pstricks code.

only xpdf has the problem with black backgrounds. Using Acrobat Reader 5.0.5 or GhostScript everything is fine. Jens
