Hans,
Thanks again for the new code.
I tried it in my document with my stationary, but it did not work.
When I create a new test document with the code you suggested, all pages
have VERY ODD in the upper left corner.
Kind regards,
Robert

Good morning,
As mentioned yesterday, I am trying to install ConTeXt on my Windows XP

OK, the two chunks of text I mentioned were obviously due to the kind of
ASCII text editor I use. I downloaded a different editor one and now the
.rme and the .ini files look better.
Sorry for taking up bandwidth about that specific issue.
Best regards,

Listmembers,
I have also done the following since the first e-mail:
- Copied the contents of texexec.rme to texexec.ini
- Uncommented the set TeXShell to miktex line in the new texexec.ini
file.
- Added the string C:\texmf\miktex\context\perltk to the PATH
(however, there is no context or
In the last days, I played around with some truetype fonts, preparing
them for use with ConTeXt by creating tfms via the texnansi encoding.
Some of these truetypes have expert features embedded into their
glyphs. texnansi automatically takes care of integrating the ff,
ffi and ffl ligatures.

Hmm, this is great.
However, I can't seem to get it to accept an image (Image=true or
Image=yes). Anyone else have some luck?
It couldn't work. Here is a new version, with fixed image support,
some cleanups in the code, and support for per-argument setup
functionality as

Any suggestions ?
Have you looked at pytex? It does nothing with pdftex, but I do not know
what do you want to actually do.

I don't know how it really works, so I can only explain this in
layman's terms. If you look in your texmf directory, you should see a
ls-R file. If you have a texmf-local tree, there should be one there
too. These ls-R files make up a database that are

Why not?
Thanks a lot for this port, Taco, it's great!

Ciro,
From a purely typographical point of view, a hyphenated word is always
better than excessive space between words in a line (which is more
discernable to the eye).
However, depending on column width, the language the text is typeset in,
and the algorithm that is used for hyphenation

looks fine, so perhaps you have disabled hyphenation
by using something like \setuptolerance[verytolerant],
or they were truly unnecesary (it is possible)

are you sure that the hyphenation configuration is the same in plain
