[NTG-context] ConTeXt on MikTeX broken

2008-05-03 Thread Mojca Miklavec

[NTG-context] Minimum file length.

2008-05-03 Thread John Culleton
I am writing an e-book where pdf file length is an issue. For the minimal "Hello world" file I get the following lengths: tex+dvips+ps2pdf 2820 pdftex 5630 texexec 22,173 The only thing I added to the last test was the \starttext and \stoptext tags. The dvips etc.
