I downloaded ghostscript 8.63 but the pdf2ps error persists. but the error goes away if I uses an earlier version of context, namely: TeXExec 5.2.4 - ConTeXt / PRAGMA ADE 1997-2005 (tetex distribution.) Therefore the problem lies in the recent Context I have been using, and not in ghostscript nor in my code. My curremt version of Context is: ConTeXt ver: 2008.05.21 15:21 MKII fmt: 2008.9.25 int: english/english The next previous version of Context I have also fails this test: ConTeXt ver: 2007.01.12 15:56 MKII fmt: 2007.9.26 int: english/english My test file at the moment is: \setupoutput[pdftex] \starttext foo \stoptext I am testing on LInux Slackware 12.
