Hi, I have a (simplified) project structure like this: root-folder /asset /tex /results /source My tex file is stored under assets, the source is an xml file under source, the pdf should be saved under results. If I call context from within the assets folder, the pdf is created as expected, but if I call context from the results folder, I get an error message saying that the xml file is not found. As the file is created properly when I call context from the assets folder, I assume context performs lookups based on the calling location (not the file location). Is that correct? Is there a simple way to call context from the results folder and still have the sources found, or do I have to call context from the assets folder and copy/move the result afterwards? Best, Denis
I have something similar where I want to be able to either create an entire magazine from the root level or just an individual article (to send to the author for proofing) from the articles sub-directory. I spent ages looking into the project structure and eventually realised that the simple solution was to put two \usepath statements into my project.tex file. :-) So I have: \usepath [environments,articles] \usepath [../environments,../articles] For you that might translate to: \usepath [asset,asset/tex,results,source] \usepath [../asset,../asset/tex,../results,../source] which should work from root and one level down but probably not from two levels down i.e. not from within ./asset/tex. For that you might need a third \usepath with ../../asset etc. Regards, — Bruce Horrocks Hampshire, UK
