I am asking because next week I could typeset a book that has about 80 smaller figures which need to be included in the text - textpages with one image top/left and another bottom/right (with text flowing around both). And since your answer I have hope again that it is possible to be done in ConTeXt. (Otherwise I'd have to use another program like FrameMaker which I try to avoid.) Thank you very much, Steffen At 14:17 03/09/2003 +0200, you wrote: >After reading the different manuals two questions still stay unanswered: > >1.

Then (2) could be a bit of a practical alternative to the missing of (1). Steffen
