Can  MKIV ConTeXt output image files.  I need to create an image file from a document and would prefer use Context to output it directly if possible and not have to convert a pdf file to an image file such as png or tiff. 

Is there a command line option for this.  I looked at the outpuf from   $ context --help   , but cold find no answer there.  It did not even mention the  --pdf option, which does exist.

Thanks

Scribus may be helpful here. It can read in a pdf
file (not too long) and output it in a variety of
formats, including of course pdf again. So you
could input your context-produced pdf file and
delete all but the image.
