Hi, Yue Wang,
Many years have passed since I wrote spec-dpx.tex for ConTeXt.
The file spec-dpx.tex included in texlive 2008 (the only one I have)
looks quite changed according to the progression of ConTeXt.
Anyway, your example worked when I change the 763th line of
spec-dpx.tex as follows:
{\scratchdimen\wd#2\scratchdimen.5\scratchdimen\hskip-\the\scratchdimen
==>
{%
But, I do not know this modification of \setMPPDFobject does not affect
other cases. Could you check more examples?
Best regards, ChoF.
