Is there any quick way to print the output of context in txt format?
I could do: context-> pdf->txt, but may there is a direct way to do that...?
I don't care about the formatting, it is just the text that I am interested
in.
The reason is that my editor does not understand context (or tex) so
I send her txt (or doc) file for the editing.
thank you
Ciro

I tend to write in pandoc almost exclusively these days then convert it
to PDF using context. it goes,
$ pandoc->context, then
$ texexec <file>
works like a charm.

not to mention obvious old-school approach xml->anything (including
ConTeXt). 100 percent reliable conversion of pdf to anything else is
impossible by definition, so better don't rely on any magic tools
which usually promise but really cannot deliver.

Yes, pdftotext works "almost" perfect.
It does not produce the "ff", "fi", but the rest is ok.
thank you.
