I want to use something that Yap can display because of the improved edit cycle with its support for forward and reverse lookups. What I want to produce is a manual containing lots (hundreds, maybe thousands) of small screen dumps as step-by-step illustrations. It's essential that I can see the image that I'm referring to while writing otherwise I'm going to get horribly confused. The final manual will be in PDF, both printable and screen versions - hence the reason for choosing ConTeXt over LaTeX. So I would prefer to have .png support in both (DVI preview and PDF) as this saves messing around with multiple copies of the image files. If you're going to makes changes to support this then please do so for png. (I was only using bmp here because I assumed that my setup was wrong and that it should work in some way.) I've attached a sample bitmap so you can see the kind of thing that I want to put in. Finally an apology to all re the first line of my original message: >> I have two very simple files that include a batman image: the LaTeX one Somehow "bitmap" was auto-corrected into "batman" which must have left some of you a little confused :-) Regards, --=_Turnpike_5sJrm5A3zR67Q4Rq= Content-Type: image/png Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64 Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=sample.png Content-Description: sample.png Content-MD5: lnelMx5x92rRfY6ygjB1rQ== iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAAQYAAACACAAAAADMwJiRAAAACXBIWXMAAA7DAAAOwwHHb6hkAAAC +UlEQVR4nO2c0ZLCIAxF+f+fPvtgWiCE2qosVe6dcVuQhnCWEFodExKQZjtwDwkDIAymlFJK2+lW UTfwr7qFr99ehfkO6q2/8myWhMF8aYZZOxTV994vy7v5Dj5hoLRyGww5GCIM7eD9u9t1MaR+UHj7 MyUM5sPJoOhN3deDImo/S8JgXgQJsW7gMVxNmMfDFAZnf6amO3APCQMAqZy4fimsJ/v8qTtOwgAY BoiSpl/ehIGtxa+q2ALXwREFw++CEAbgMCjardA8N0dLGAAlTJMwANpMm4QB2Oa8JKWUfnnZuyJh AKq1YbYrMyUMQHFrtReXxCEMQBEUuTjXoTkSBqBImGsOf5MwAA0GBcXaGPLiaEVhWBhDfsy2soQB 0I22SRiAHYOC4nEQhjJNrrpYCgOwf5QrDMLAvplec/BZwgA0D+gXDgphaLZPwmBHYVhYwgDoRtsk DIAewpmEAdADepMwAPrwziQMgJZIkzAACgqTMABKmCZhALREmoQB0I22SRgABYVJGAAlTJMwANpM m4QBaL70s6qEAdi/9LMXFwUiDECRMPeiMCyNofzSz6oSBkA32iZhAPbt08fNui8gX+nhPwN0/1mn rTDG/OP8KzCU3X7KBf9jWtdQC8Pltu+pExTjMGT75S19Pq//GW17b7+2lK35+qjfsl4Y6GIYoXYo 2WW/mB4fy+vj8xaltx/bFIZHqa4al6ziCfwMgw+X0s826DyS3Ffdr28rDFvruurzGI4mZ72sxRP6 me0+huNzYQhsVylmjNrE1Vu2eu1ji32bR3aE4RjDfI1N2Kc8mO0ACMNL6qfRN2x+ztR/aQiG87rS +NvaXtAd3B2MYZsYeYL4cmy23v74+mz1yHZ8fTxV4ysf5XIMPb+eSBiq4fRefXf79eXfM/YjC0f9 Rf75fi9KGMyEn271RDt2rFfrMcS2X8fgg04Y0ocwtMcRQRHZfjco2j6E4X4Yokkb2X4l2OrrewF9 ZuRhp4tjOKMrZr+t7QXdwd1RGP4AtgrUKHrOdQ4AAAAASUVORK5CYII= --=_Turnpike_5sJrm5A3zR67Q4Rq= Content-Type: text/plain;charset=us-ascii;format=flowed -- Bruce Horrocks Hampshire England bh@granby.demon.co.uk --=_Turnpike_5sJrm5A3zR67Q4Rq=--
