Hi,

After switching to `XeConTeXt' my file with MP graphics (which ran fine before) results in errors. I include a .mp-file like:

\startuseMPgraphic{dia1} input Diagram1 ; \stopuseMPgraphic \placefigure{Comment}{\externalfigure[Diagram1.1]}

When I run ConTeXt a file test-mprun.mp is created containing:

[...] defaultfont:="'Minion Pro:mapping=tex-text; +onum; +pnum'"; defaultscale:=12.0pt/10pt; [...]

which of course is responsible for the errors. Does anyone know how to solve this?

hm, tricky, one option is to use the \sometxt (see older posts) mechanism which will keep font handling entirely inside tex

One of the problems is also that textext results in calling pdftex instead of XeTeX (I never managed to get textext working under XeTeX, but I didn't want to complain too much about it), but "draw \sometxt{something}" is working perfectly and would be my choice for this anyway (unless you really need to put something special in those labels, but ask on the list again if you don't know how to handle it). Then you don't need to take care of font switching inside of the graphic, you just switch the font in your document. Mojca
