One need not use Illustrator, for opening the .ai file in Adobe Reader and then saving it as a .pdf gets rid of all of the editing crap that is embedded.

Update:
The page setup works after Hans’ fix. Thanks, that was a relief.
I still don’t know what’s going on with PDF inclusion. The ones that cause
trouble are kind of old (from 2005), and I could “upgrade”
Them manually and things work now for this document. I have others that might
cause problems, too. Unfortunately, the error message only tells which page
couldn’t be flushed but not what figure is causing issues. Going through a
hundred figures and trying whether they work is somewhat painful.
A more verbose error message would be helpful, or a hint what has changed with
pdf import.
Thanks,

[NTG-context] Update problems
Dear List,
After a while I decided updating my ConTeXt installation to ConTeXt ver:
2019.01.07 10:07 MKIV beta fmt: 2019.1.7.
With an old document of mine I ran into two issues so far: Some of my old pdf
images are not accepted as figures anymore.
Example:
\starttext
\externalfigure[cardioid.pdf][width=1.5in]{Cardioid}
\stoptext
Using the following pdf which is version 1.4
cardioid.pdf
Description: cardioid.pdf
More recent PDFs (1.5)seem to work.
Secondly, paper setup seems to require a new kind of massage.
\setuppapersize[S6][S6]
\starttext
\dorecurse{10}{\input knuth}
\input knuth
\stoptext
produces
test0.pdf
Description: test0.pdf
On the other hand, the garden version looks ok. What could be wrong on my end?
Thanks!

[NTG-context] Update problems: TOC
Hello, all ConTeXters!
I finally got around to trying TeXLive2003 and the ConTeXt there. The good
news is that it installs into Windows2000 like a charm and all the old
font woes are now past worries, the fonts worked the first try. After
installing TeXLive I downloaded the newest ConTeXt from Pragma's pages and
it seems to be a working installation, too.
However, I have a problem to which I didn't find a solution in the mailing
list archives:
The Table of Contents doesn't work and that hangs the whole thing. If I
get rid of the command \placecontent, everything works perfectly, but once
I try to compile the file(s) with a TOC, this is what I get:
myContents : - Table of contents
(./pr-03.tuo
! Undefined control sequence.
\exitloop -\let \endofloop
\nodoloop
argument ...\zeropoint \unskip \else \exitloop
\fi
\doloop ...@@arecurse \recursedepth \endcsname {#1

\removeunwantedspaces ...kip \else \exitloop \fi }
\fi
\endstrut ...trut \fi \else \removeunwantedspaces
\normalpenalty [EMAIL PROTECTED]
\normal...
argument ...tentry {\v!hoofdstuk }{Introduction}
}
...
l.7 ...1}{1}{Introduction}{2::0:1:0:0:0:0:0::1}{5}
?
---
Below you'll find a simplified version of my setups etc, maybe that will
help to pinpoint the problem. I hope somebody has a solution as I won't be
able to upgrade to any newer ConTeXt's until this is fixed.
Thanks for any help,
Mari
