Thanks Mojca,
I'll send it to you privately.
I've rewritten the wiki entry related to figure specifying that the
use of low level command is just a workaround.

Hi,
I'm experimenting with xetex as suggested. All ok up to know.
But I'm having a strange problem with figures.
Typically I create my diagrams with Omnigraffle, export them in
pdf (default
setting) and reimport them in ConTeXt. Always fine.
Using texexec --xtx I'm having a strange scale in vertical
dimension, i.e.
the figure is vertically stretched. The figure is ok, because the
problem
does not arise when I omit the -xtx flag.
The code I'm using is trivial
\placefigure{{\em Semiotiche}: produzione, distribuzione e accesso.}
{\externalfigure[pipeline][width=\textwidth]}
No stretching using a png instead of a pdf
I have just figured out that weird scaling of jpg figures came from
XeTeX, not from ConTeXt. Actually, xdv2pdf driver works OK, while
xdvipdfmx driver uses some arbitrary scaling. (I might be that
resolution wrong in original file, but \XeTeXpicfile "file" width5cm
should result in exactly 5cm width, no more and no less.)
Can you send me one of problematic PDFs? I would like to check whether
the problem lies in ConTeXt or XeTeX ...

I did this interview where I just mentioned that I read Foucault. Who
doesn't in university, right? I was in this strip club giving this
guy a lap dance and all he wanted to do was to discuss Foucault with
me. Well, I can stand naked and do my little dance, or I can discuss
Foucault, but not at the same time; too much information.
