Can MKIV ConTeXt output image files. I need to create an image file from a document and would prefer use Context to output it directly if possible and not have to convert a pdf file to an image file such as png or tiff. Is there a command line option for this. I looked at the outpuf from $ context --help , but cold find no answer there. It did not even mention the --pdf option, which does exist. Thanks

Scribus may be helpful here. It can read in a pdf file (not too long) and output it in a variety of formats, including of course pdf again. So you could input your context-produced pdf file and delete all but the image. -- John Culleton Wexford Press Free list of books for self-publishers: http://wexfordpress.net/shortlist.html PDF e-book: "Create Book Covers with Scribus" available at http://www.booklocker.com/books/4055.html
