If you have
yourfig.pdf
yourfig.png
yourfig.jpg
and say
\externalfigure[yourfig]
context will take the pdf. If not there, it will take the png, otherwise
the jpg, otherwise search further and/or complain.
You can force a format by saying:
\externalfigure[yourfig.jpg]
Conversion from png / jpg to pdf:
texexec --fig=c --pdf yourfig.png
will produce you a pdf alternative
