The error-report says: Internal Error: cairo context error: input string not valid UTF-8 The same document compiled in live.contextgarden.net doesn't produce a mistake and can be printed with evince. I can still print the document correctly using 'lpr name.pdf', so it's not a big problem for me. But I don't know if that could be a problem for someone else.

There was never a problem. Same editor, same viewer. With standalone there is a problem just for printing from viewer "evince". I can print the very same document with lpr (command-line) without problem. I don't think there is a real problem with the pdf. "evince" manipulates somehow the pdf-document before sending to printer. There the error occurs. Strange that the output from context in texlive didn't have this problem. Has the output-format changed since last year?

Just some anecdote: I was working on a presentation style last week and was getting really weird results, with background elements shifting on the page randomly. I suspected that some update had brought changes in Metapost and tried on my laptop with a slightly older version, and everything was OK. Then I installed the latest version on the laptop and tried again - still OK. After two hours of fuzzing around, I finally understood that it was a problem with evince, not with the pdf - if I opened the same file with okular or Adobe Reader, everything was fine. So I wouldn't trust evince; looks like the clowns in charge of gnome have managed to break their pdf viewer as well.

Yes, it is very curious, but unfortunately, pdf viewers behave very inconsistently, especially on linux. When you use something like shading or transparencies, you can have very nasty surprises. Though I must say that in my experience, okular has been quite good. Adobe Reader does some funny things with colors and makes fonts look too skinny, and evince has some bizarre problems.
