You can try to add
\startluacode
function backends.codeinjections.rgbtransparencygroup()
local d = lpdf.dictionary {
S = lpdf.constant("Transparency"),
CS = lpdf.constant("DeviceRGB"),
I = true }
lpdf.registerpagefinalizer(function()
lpdf.addtopageattributes("Group",d) end)
end
\stopluacode
\def\pngTransparencyHack{\ctxlua{backends.codeinjections.rgbtransparencygroup()}}
\pngTranparencyHack
This is what I use here for my RGB based graphics. Anyhow, as the name
of the macro says: it's not more than a (RGB only) hack.

Hi,
I have now investigated the color errors in Adobe Reader further.
I produced a test PDF without simpleslides with MKIV (mtx-context |
current version: 2011.09.10 12:55).
Here is the source:
\language[fi]
\setupcolors[rgb]
\usemodule[metafun]
\setupbackgrounds[page][background=color,backgroundcolor=black]
\startreusableMPgraphic{variympyrat}
vardef ColorCircle (expr method, factor, ca, cb, cc) =
save u, p ; path p ; p := fullcircle shifted (1/4,0);
image (fill p rotated 90 withcolor transparent(method,factor,ca); fill
p rotated 210 withcolor transparent(method,factor,cb); fill p rotated
330 withcolor transparent(method,factor,cc))
enddef;
draw ColorCircle ("normal", 1, cyan, magenta, yellow) xsized 6cm;
draw ColorCircle ("darken", .85, cyan, magenta, yellow) xsized 6cm;
currentpicture := currentpicture shifted (0,-6cm);
draw ColorCircle ("exclusion", 1, red, green, blue) xsized 6cm;
\stopreusableMPgraphic
\starttext
\startcolor[white]
\title{metafun}
\includeMPgraphic{variympyrat}
\title{svg}
\externalfigure[variympyrat.svg]
\title{png}
\externalfigure[variympyrat.png]
\stoptext
and here is the output:
https://pi-xi.net/share/context_reader_test.png
https://pi-xi.net/share/context_reader_test.pdf
You can also see the original files used in the test here:
https://pi-xi.net/share/variympyrat.png
https://pi-xi.net/share/variympyrat.svg
The gray background effect happens randomly even with only using svg
images straight from inkscape.
When using png images, I noticed it happens more often when there are
multiple layers in the png.
With metafun graphics, the image colors are messed up in addition to
the gray background.
I would like to know:
a) How to avoid it with metafun, png AND svg graphics?
b) What is the cause (Adobe reader bugs? Errors in my source? Erroneous
image files? ConTeXt bug?)
Best regards,
Otso Helenius
