Re: [NTG-context] XeTeX w. ConTeXt question
Thanks for the response. I'm using: texexec : TeXExec 5.2.4 - ConTeXt / PRAGMA ADE 1997-2005 texutil : TeXUtil 9.0.0 - ConTeXt / PRAGMA ADE 1992-2004 tex : pdfeTeX, 3.141592-1.20a-2.2 (Web2C 7.5.3) context : ver: 2005.01.31 cont-en : ver: 2005.01.31 fmt: 2005.3.4 mes: english cont-nl : ver: 2005.01.31 fmt: 2005.3.4 mes: dutch and am also invoking texexec as you say: texexec --xtx File.tex I'm using Gerben's i-Installer to install teTeX. HmmI have some vague memory of a default setting [checking]. Yes, in cont-sys.tex, the \setupoutput is set to [pdftex]. When I comment it out, everything works fine. :) Regards, David On Mar 16, 2005, at 4:55 PM, Adam Lindsay wrote: sfpno said this at Wed, 16 Mar 2005 16:33:38 -0800: (/usr/local/TeTeX/share/texmf.tetex/tex/context/base/spec-tpd.tex systems : you should use pdfTeX binaries \wait= ) That error should be long gone by now.
