Hi,
again, after an i-installer update, my ConTeXt-XeTeX typesetting failed. Probably I'd never understood how to make the required formats (what command, what order) properly...
Did you reinstall XeTeX after updating the TeX package? I assume so, just checking....
Yes, this was the order: .FreeType 2 .libwmf .Ghostscript 8 .ImageMagick .FontForge .TeX .ConTeXt-Updater .XeTeX
Can someone please tell me what's the right way for using ConTeXt-XeTeX and ConTeXt-pdfeTeX?
....and if it looks simple and robust and I can understand it, I guess I could try adding this to the XeTeX installation scripts. I've never had the time to really look into ConTeXt, but it'd be nice if it could "just work" for people.
After an i-installation running ConTeXt (by pdfeTeX) works right out of the box (without any commandline action), same for plain XeTeX (plainTeX by XeTeX?). But running a ConTeXt document by XeTeX fails: TeXExec 5.4.3 - ConTeXt / PRAGMA ADE 1997-2005 fixing engine variable : pdfetex executable : xetex format : cont-en inputfile : text output : pdftex interface : en current mode : none TeX run : 1 This is XeTeX, Version 3.141592-2.2-0.99b (Web2C 7.5.3) (WARNING: translate-file "natural.tcx" ignored) ---! /usr/local/teTeX/share/texmf.local/web2c/cont-en.fmt was written by pdfetex (Fatal format file error; I'm stymied) return code : 256 run time : 1 seconds total run time : 1 seconds Someone knows what to do?
