I want to minimize the number of runs and suppress as much of the messages as possible. I tried (windows standalone context) : 1) texmfstart --pdf --runs=1 --silentmode texfile.tex This still gave 3 runs with all the Context messages displayed. After a bit of experimenting it turns out that I have to use 2) texmfstart --pdf texfile.tex --runs=1 --silentmode It works, but I am not sure what the correct way is for the other options. The manual mtexexec.pdf (a bit outdated) says I have to use method 1). Also the Wiki page http://wiki.contextgarden.net/TeXExec suggest method 1). Running texexec --help --all does not mention the order in which these parameters should be specified.
