Re: [NTG-context] blurred shadow on images?

I'd like to place some plain photos rotated (say 12°) and with a blurred
shadow above some colored elements, i.e. the shadow must use transparency.
I guess I could get such using ImageMagick, but is there a possibility
using ConTeXt or one of its favourite friends?
I'd prefer a solution that works with CMYK data.
Creating a semi-transparent backdrop with metapost is quite simple,
but I am not sure whether that works with cmyk, you'll have to try
yourself. Code goes something like this:
\startuniqueMPgraphic{texthole}
for dx = 0 upto 40:
dy := dx;
wa := 10 + dx;
wb := \overlaywidth - dx - 10;
ha := dy + 10;
hb := \overlayheight - dy - 10;
fill (wa,ha)--(wb,ha)--(wb,hb)--(wa,hb)--cycle
withcolor transparent(normal, .04,white);
endfor;
\stopuniqueMPgraphic
If there isn't - is the transparency of PNG usable?
Sure, and may use less resources than mp drawings, but that is
definitely RGB
Best wishes,
Taco

Re: [NTG-context] Indent in publication list

[NTG-context] Mixing math fonts, help ?
Hi,
On http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Bold_Math section Mixing Math Fonts
I tried to mix in the Asana Math font for the missing integral symbols.

0x222D triple integral \iiint
0x222E contour integral \oint

0x2230 volume integral \oiiint
However I don't want to switch to the whole Asana Math, because the math
looks ugly, just want to get to the missing symbols in math mode.
To all the experts on the list, please be patient with me. I am just some
one
who documents math and physics texts but I am not a programmer or Tex
wizard.

know how to
get it to work and it's stopping me.
