Yes, you have to delele all those symlinks that teTeX provides. If you go to the unix stubs directory in the ConTeXt distribution, you can do : # for a in *; do rm -i /usr/local/teTeX/bin/i686-pc-linux-gnu/$a; done Taco ___ ntg-context mailing list ntg-context@ntg.nl http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context

But there is another problem with the following test file: %%% This needed to get upright \textmu: \setupencoding[default=texnansi] \usetypescript[modern-base][\defaultencoding] \setupbodyfont[modern] %%% \starttext bla and \textmu \stoptext When running texexec --dvi test, the output of dvips is This is dvips(k) 5.95a Copyright 2005 Radical Eye Software (www.radicaleye.com) ' TeX output 2006.05.13:1508' - test.ps tex.protexnansi-lm.enctexps.pro. lmr10.pfb[1] and the PostScript page is completely empty (blanc).

So here my questions: - Why does texexec use these options for dvips? - Where can I tell texexec to use just dvips without options? - Why is there a difference between running dvips by texexec or by command line, does texexec modify perhaps the environment? - Why do I have this behaviour only with texnansi but not with ec encoding?
