Re: [NTG-context] \placefigure problems in Xetex
Hello, Just to let you all know: ConTeXt with pdfTeX creates PDF version 1.5 by default, and xdvipdfmx driver of XeTeX (which became the default one) isn't capable to handle those files. It handles PDF 1.4 OK, so if you have some PDFs with a too recent version, you should convert them to a lower version first. (I suppose that it's possible to use a lower version as a setting in pdfTeX, and probably you can use gs to convert an existing PDF.) xdv2pdf handles recent PDFs OK. So, in case that you have problems with image inclusion, you know what the problem might be, and it's not sure when it will be solved. (The problem described below has different kind of problems though.)

Re: [NTG-context] \placefigure problems in Xetex
Hi, again, I've been through this a couple of days ago so I'm happy to share my experience with you ;-) For me the problem was not having installed ImageMagick in the first place. But judging from your log this doesn't seem to be the problem. Let me think ... perhaps your glitch might be related to a funny thing I stumbled upon: including a PDF figure with \externalfigure resulted in a crazy distortion of the image although I didn't specify any height or width arguments (i.e. I didn't override its natural dimensions)... Hans, Mojca, do you have any ideas? I'm going to send a test file tomorrow ... Best, Oliver Hello Unfortunately, I get dummy boxes instead of .pdf figures in the XeteXed document.
