===================================
Dear gang,
I need your help. If anyone is using a recent mswincontext.zip, could you
check the dvipdfmx executable with the attached test, spec, and eps
file.

The problem here is that dvipdfmx freezes when processing fig-test.dvi.
I'm trying to determine if this is due to a misconfiguration on my part or 
whether this is a mswincontext problem. I HOPE it's an mswincontext problem 
because I have no idea where the misconfiguration can be. Note the modified 
spec-dpx file. Just place it in the working directory (per ChoF's 
instructions).

I appreciate anyone's help: this is critical because I have a late journal 
issue that depends on the aleph-dvipfmx cycle.

Thnx in advance and all the
Best
Idris

Dear Profesor Hamid

I attach the dvi and log files which were output from the latest
mswincontext which I use.  I normally output to pdf so I'm not sure if the
dvi output should look like it does.  It doesn't look correct to me but that
just might be my setup.  I consider myself still to be a Context learner. If
you need any other info let me know.

Best Wishes

Professor

In my previous post the fig-test.tex file I used was as below

output=dvipdfmx
\input spec-dpx.tex
\starttext
test
\blank
\externalfigure[534-b][width=2cm]
\stoptext

I have now repeated the test with the file you posted which was:

%output=dvipdfmx
\input spec-dpx.tex
\starttext
test
\blank
\externalfigure[534-b][width=2cm]
\stoptext

The attached files are the output and log files.

I did say I was a learner!!

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

This should be

\externalfigure[534][width=2cm]

Then run

============================
$> dvipdfmx fig-test
============================

on the dvi file. Does dvipdfmx freeze?

Thanks again
