Hello,

I have a document converted from rtf to xml that I'd like to attempt to typeset using Context.

As a starting point I tried to follow the procedure in a document from the wiki: mag-0008-1.pdf "Dealing with XML". Having copied the first example document and stylesheet from that article and generated sample-1.fx, I run:

texexec --pdf --use=fx --xml sample-1.fx

but it ends with:

(/usr/local/context_minimal/tex/texmf-local/tex/context/base/spec-fdf.tex (/usr/local/context_minimal/tex/texmf-local/tex/context/base/spec-fdf.mkii)) specials : fdf loaded ) specials : fdf,tpd loaded system : module fx not found ) systems : system commands are enabled ) *

I installed the minimal today from the wiki to be up to date before posting.

Probably something has changed in the four years since mag-0008-1.pdf was written. If some kind soul would point me in the right direction I'll be very grateful.

Hi Roger, take a look into the XML manual, the magazine is a little bit special and not the best starting point. http://www.pragma-ade.com/show-man-15.htm Wolfgang
