Hi willi,
i run on a linux only box with a vanilla SuSE 9.0

texexec --version
 TeXExec 3.1 - ConTeXt / PRAGMA ADE 1997-2002
rpm: te_cont-2.0.2-48

pdftex --version
pdfTeX (Web2C 7.4.5) 3.14159-1.10b
kpathsea version 3.4.5
Copyright (C) 1997-2003 Han The Thanh.
rpm: te_pdf-2.0.2-48

xdvi --version
xdvik version 22.40v
Copyright (C) 1990-2002 Paul Vojta and others.
rpm:tetex-2.0.2-48

hope that helps.

The xdvi display is more or less useless because i dont see text inside
the boxes. BUT i can use the lens to read it :).

walter

Hi Walter

I tried to reproduce your faulty behaviour on a WindowsXP machine with the 
TeX Collection 2003 and the latest beta of ConTeXt installed.

1. The resulting pdf does not miss the 1 from         \text {DB freigeben 
;\\ return 1;\\}
2. The resulting dvi file, viewed with windvi has correct text typeset, but 
there are no shapes drawn.

Interestingly the file you have in the .tar does show the 1 in Acrobat 5 and 6!
Windvi is not able to display the charts correctly, the text is typeset to 
expectation, no shapes are drawn.

Do you work on a Linux box?
Which version of PDFTeX do you use?
Which version of ConTeXt do zou use?


Kind regards Willi

[...]

since your pdf file was fine (included the 1), there are no problems
generating the pdf. It is only a problem viewing it. What viewer are
you using?

Your texexec is definitely old. We have version 4.0 at the moment
