I am attempting for the first time to import a figure into a ConTeXt
document and am getting "figure 0481c can not be found." I am using TexLive
on a Windows Vista system. I thought I was following the manual but
apparently am doing something wrong. Here is the relevant code:
%file 0481c.tif is located in c:\BookLayouts\Wisconsin\photos
\setupexternalfigures[directory={c:/BookLayouts/Wisconsin/photos}]
\useexternalfigure[ladies][0481c][width=3.127in]
%after \starttext
\placefigure[left]{none}{\externalfigure[ladies]}

tiff is not supported directly (the format is simply too open ended) so
use png instead of convert them them to pdf beforehand

A good option is to convert a tiff file in pdf; see
