There's not much to guide me in the log file ( the only not found was : files           > readfile > asked name: 'loc', not found), but context (ConTeXt  ver: 2011.08.04 00:42 MKIV  fmt: 2011.8.12  int: english/english) seems not to have found the component text, or the graphic….

So far I have lost days to this…and I'm afraid I'm none the wiser now.

But I do appreciate the effort. Thanks.
