no graphics inclusion

no graphics inclusion

[Vit Zyka]

Hello ConTeCters,

please, is there some trick how to suppress external graphics inclusion 
into PDF, just only show dummy frames instead? I would like to send the 
underworked doc with plenty of graphics for proof reading. With graphics 
it has tens of MB.

I tried
   \setupexternalfigures[option=empty]
it shows only frames instead of graphics but graphics is also included, 
so it resulted in no PDF file size reduction.

Thanks
Vit

In case of my goal it is the same: graphics incorporated to PDF.

If I understand object=no correctly it prevents reusing graphics, so the 
size even grows if some figures are inserted several times
(... yes, verified).

No more PDF output using mptopdf

[Jilani Khaldi]

Hi All,
well, till five minutes ago the command "mptopdf myfile.mp" gives in 
output "myfile.pdf", but after playing with metafun, now I can't get in 
output the "myfile.pdf" using the same command; however, "mptopdf" says 
that "myfile.pdf" has been created, but nothing really happens.
How to get "mptopdf" working again?
Thanks!

The general answer would be: "undo whatever you did while playing".

Unfortunately, We do not know what you did precisely, making it hard
to guess what is wrong now. There may be a clue inside myfile.log.
Otherwise, you will have to write a somewhat longer explanation of
what you did and perhaps show some example code as well.
