Hi,
When I run the example below (current beta, pdftex, live.contextgarden.net)
the generated pdf does not contain any pictures.
Any suggestion how to solve this? Or is the command obsolete?
Thanks,

Hi Andrea,
Regarding the installation of TeX and ConTeXt I did it for my daughter
who is a biologist, on a MacBook: this is quite easy with MacTeX.
Then it is enough to tell your students to do in a Terminal window:
sudo ctxtools --updatecontext
For LuaTeX it is a little bit more comple

Yes but some fonts use AAT feayures rather than OpenType features
(take a look at the Arabic thread), so don't worry if you want to use fonts

There is a new beta; apart from a few fixes (mostly mkiv) the mathml

I would like to set up OSFONTDIR, but I don't know how or where or when

TeX Live 2008 will include LuaTeX, and so will MacTeX (if they
create it).
That would be great
Have you ever tried to install minimals (http://

In my experience the font switching issue (complicated for newbies)
is the only relevant negative feature in ConTeXt.
So, if I have Luatex I can forget xetex?

I did not mean ASCII ... in the 8-bit encodings for Arabic that built

Arabic letters behave differently from Hebrew, Thaana, etc. in
particular in the vicinity of European digits. But the difference is
quite minute.
