Hello,
though this is only partly a context question, I think this is the
best place to ask. I am creating MetaPost figures containing text.
When these are included in a TeX document processed by pdfLaTeX,
context's supp-pdf.tex is loaded to perform the conversion.
Consider the simple MP file (the space is essential)
--------------------------------------
defaultfont:="ptmr8r";
beginfig(1);
label(" 11", origin);
endfig;
--------------------------------------
This will result in a file like
%%Page: 1 1
-6.25003 -3.38997 moveto
( 11) ptmr8r 10.00005 fshow
showpage
%%EOF
If this MP file is included in a context document,
everything is fine.
--------------------------------------
\starttext
\placefigure[][]{}{\externalfigure[minimal.mps]}
\stoptext
--------------------------------------
If it is included in a LaTeX document
--------------------------------------
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage[dvips]{graphicx}
\begin{document}
\includegraphics{minimal.mps}
\end{document}
--------------------------------------
converted to ps with dvips, still everything
is fine.
When using
--------------------------------------
\usepackage[pdftex]{graphicx}
--------------------------------------
and pdfLaTeX to compile the file (this is
when supp-pdf.tex is used), the " 11" disappears.
I found this problem with every number from 11, 22,
to 99 with a leading space -- even in the middle of
a string: "Text: 118" would come out as "Text: 8".
I don't have any clue what's going wrong.
Any ideas?
PS: Hans was so kind to provide a new supp-pdf.tex
after a similar problem with labels
startimg with an umlaut?
file=supp-pdf.tex version=2001.07.27
file=supp-mis.tex version=1997.01.04
are used.
Thanks,
Andreas
