Hi luigi, Please refer to http://edutechwiki.unige.ch/en/MetaUML for the example, thanks. There's the metauml package from texlive-metapost, i'm not sure how to use it in ConTeXt. Best regards, Joshua On Tue, 01 Dec 2009, luigi scarso wrote:

Hi All, Is there any way to use metauml from ConTeXt? http://thor.info.uaic.ro/~ogh/lop/ Do you have a simple example ?

Hi Joshua,

There we use the following chain: - Edit UML diagrams with bouml (a really really great tool to design and for reverse engineering… ) - Export to SVG (take care of the font with qt-config if you want some consistency within your final pdf) - SVG to PDF conversion with inkscape (command line + fonts embedding option if needed) - just use the PDF as another external figure…

I'll check tomorrow if I have succeeded to optimize the fonts embedding (this point has annoyed me a lot)…

From my POV, MetaUML is not adapted to a real production environment (except at pure design stage)…

Worth give à try to bouml -> pdf Your UML diagrams should look great with a few bouml/fonts/qt-config configuration.
