[longish comments deleted] Thanks for your comments, George. FWIW, I don't have any spaces in my MiKTeX directory tree, but I do use the default XP system for organizing document files, and that system does have a lot of spaces (e.g., "Documents and Settings") I'm not married to MiKTeX, so I can switch to fpTeX. Any comments? >From what I can tell, fpTeX has better ConTeXt integration, while MiKTeX has a better system for keeping up to date. Anything else? -gary
