Hi, In the next version you can run mp files: % test.mp beginfig(1) ; fill fullcircle scaled 10cm withcolor 0.5red ; fill fullcircle scaled 4cm withcolor 0.5white ; endfig ; beginfig(2) ; fill fullcircle scaled 10cm withcolor 0.5green ; fill fullcircle scaled 5cm withcolor 0.5white ; endfig ; beginfig(3) ; fill fullcircle scaled 10cm withcolor 0.5blue ; fill fullcircle scaled 6cm withcolor 0.5white ; endfig ; as follows: context test.mp and you'll get a pdf file with 3 pages that can be included with \externalfigure[test][page=1] \externalfigure[test][page=2] \externalfigure[test][page=3] or used in different ways. Alteratively you can run % test.tex \starttext \processMPfigurefile{figures-001.mp} \stoptext In which case you can add styling directives in the preamble.
