Ok, but this is not a better solution. It's only cleaner from a ConTeXt point of view. So you do not modify the sources but because of the bug you modify =20 200 jpgs. In any case, as I have written, I had not output problems with =20= \externalfigure, but the rli generation needed many texexec calls to =20 be completed and was too slow (even if only for the first time). Instead, I had no luck at all with pdfs inclusion.
