Subject: Background colour of included PDF images
Date: Sat, 1 Sep 2007 18:19:38 +0530 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20070901124938.GA29769@localhost> (raw)
Dear ConTeXt users,
I am making a presentation using ConTeXt, and wish to use some plain
images. I am running into some trouble, especially with the background
colour of the image, which I wish to force. Here is some information:
1. I make the image using Dia, and export it.
2. I include the EPS directly, and Acrobat doesn't like it.
3. I epstopdf the images, they come otu well, except that they are
transparent and the images with black text and lines looks bad on
my dark background presentation.
I partially worked around the problem by using background=screen in my
\useexternalfigure calls. However, I have a combination image, where
the second image comes without the white filled background.
Could you please tell me a way to force the background colour of my
images to white? I really don't want to convert it to PNG or
something, since PNG doesn't look nice after scaling, does it? :-)
Thanks in advance.
And FYI:
Version: Debian package:
CtxTools | context version: 2007.04.17 12:51 (/usr/share/texmf/tex/context/base/context.tex)
CtxTools | context version: 2007.04.17 12:51 (/usr/share/texmf/tex/context/base/cont-new.tex)
