Hello all!

Thanks for all your suggestions. I am capturing screenshots and saving them
as .eps images using Jasc Paint Shop Pro 8. I then convert the eps images
to PDF using "convertall2pdf"(on the command line) which is the batch file
that Ghostscript uses. When I then use context tags

\placefigure
{test}
{\externalfigure[Image1-4][type=pdf,preset=yes]}
\blank

I still get blank gray boxes in the output. Why does this happen? How do I
solve this problem? Does it have anything to do with the bounding box? How
do I fix the bounding box?
Thanks and regards,
-priya

Hello,
It seems that you're working on a Win$$ platform.
If you can grab "Snag-it" somewhere, you'll be able to save your
capturized images in a .png format, directly usable in Context.
Salutations.

see pstopdf.pdf manual on or site; play with:

pstopdf --method=1 yourfile.eps
pstopdf --method=2 yourfile.eps
pstopdf --method=3 yourfile.eps
