I did this, regenerated the formats, but it still does not work. My dvipdfmx
comes from mswincontext 16-08-05, but checking the properties of the dvipdfmx
executable indicates that it was created on 08-03-05. Maybe it's too old.
Anyway, hopefully someone can help with an up-to-date executable!

Dear Knights of the TeX Table,
If there is anyone out there who can compile the latest dvipdfmx for windows
and post it/send it to me I would be very grateful!

Thank you, ChoF, for your quick reply. I do not know how to compile dvipdfmx
so I will try your changes to spec-dpx.tex.
Maybe Fabrice can compile the latest dvipdfmx for windows?
Question: how do I determine the version number of my dvipdfmx? My present one
came from the context distribution of 16-08-05?
All the best
Idris
