Could you kindly open the pdf I sent as well? How does that look? Here, on Windows 11, the bars do not appear on sumatra, adobe, or nitropdf. I checked on MacOS with Preview, Acrobat Pro and PDF Studio – no bars in your PDF. But your code gives apparently correct results on my machine, ConTeXt ver: 2023.09.26 18:19 LMTX fmt: 2023.10.19 Maybe try to re-make the format? Check all files in the log – is there something from a local/personal texmf tree? Many thanks, Henning. I tried remaking the format, updating -- to no avail. The log doesn't seem to show anything unusual, no texmf-project files, etc. Finally, I shutdown and restarted the system, on the premise that some pdf library or other file is acting up. And voila! it seems to work now -- see attached. It remains a mystery as to what could possibly have caused this problem, or why a system restart made it go away. Hopefully the problem will not return, but we'll see.. Thanks to all who replied. Best wishes -- Idris Samawi Hamid, Professor Department of Philosophy Colorado State University Fort Collins, CO 80523
