forwarded problem of 1.40.7 on powerpc
by Taco Hoekwater 27 Feb '08

27 Feb '08

Hi guys, See below for a bug in 1.40.7 as posted on the context list. As I wrote there, it looks like an endianness issue because 300000 >> 16 == 5 Either that, or some object has a different size on ppc, but that seems unlikely to me. I am hoping someone has a powerpc to try and sort this out. Best wishes, Taco -------- Original Message -------- Subject: Re: [NTG-context] bib module and pdftex 1.40.7: Virtual memory exhausted using MiKTeX-2.7 Date: Wed, 27 Feb 2008 10:26:46 +0100 From: Thomas A.

I think I nailed it down: if I try to include a pdf image into a ConTeXt document \starttext \externalfigure[Logo][width=56mm,height=20mm] \stoptext (with any pdf file) I get this error: <./Logo.pdf !

The pdf file is OK; this error only occurs with pdftex 1.40.7 on powerpc (OS X, 10.5.2).
