[NTG-context] Newbie question: Different PDF-output with pdftex versus tex - ghostscript
Hi, I've installed Tex and Context on my Mac through II-installer and started to experiment with simple Context files. I'm using Texshop v2.09 as text editor. When I generate output with the pdftex default script I get a pdf-file with poor letter quality (thick p's and t's and j's). Also the combination of the characters ij are shown as .. in the pdf-file. When I switch to the default Texshopscript tex + ghostscipt I'll get a dvi-file. Double-clicking on this file generates a PDF-file with high quality characters and the ij characters. Apparently there is something wrong in my setup. Any ideas? Many thanks in advance, Robert Kroon ___ ntg-context mailing list ntg-context@ntg.nl http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context

ConTeXt on my iMac (Macos X, 10.3.6). Now I'm trying to learn ConTeXt. I'm marking up my documents in TeXShop, version 1.34. I can typeset small ConTeXt documents and generate PDF-files as long as the type setting commands are in English. However, I would like to use Dutch type setting commands like: \starttekst Dit is een test \stoptekst Any tips how I can get my Dutch typesetting command from within TeXShop? Many thanks in advance. i think that gerben know the answer I have no idea how to configure TeXShop for specific ConTeXt versions. I woul dlook at the current way it calls context and change cont-en into cont-nl. The i-Package provides a way to choose the cont-nl format to be available during the formats selection phase. Re-run configuratio if you do not want to use the commad line. (texexec --make --all or specific texexec --make --all en nl metafun mptopdf) gerben: it makes sense to generate the dutch format as well because some goodies use the dutch format Hans [Snip] It's working now. As root I ran texexec --make --all Following Thomas A. Schmitz posting I checked if the file cont-nl.fmt was in /usr/local/teTeX/share/texmf.local/web2c. This was not the case. Instead the generated file cont-nl-fmt was located in /Users/myadministratorname. What I did was copying the file to /usr/local/teTeX/share/texmf.local/web2c and now it works. Thank you all very much for your help.
