Hi Harald, how about converting the JPEG files with ImageMagick with two directories (such as print-quality and screen-quality)? If you use the same image file names, you could also use modes: \enablemode[print] \startmode[print] \setupexternalfigures[location=/home/user/project/img-print/] \stopmode \startmode[screen] \setupexternalfigures[location=/home/user/project/img-screen/] \stopmode \starttext \externalfigure[image-filename.jpg] \stoptext As long as you use the same filenames and the right mode, ConTeXt will choose the right file for each format. BTW, I don’t know whether ConTeXt can shrink image quality, but I think this workaround could do the job. I hope it helps, Pablo -- http://www.ousia.tk ___________________________________________________________________________________ If your question is of interest to others as well, please add an entry to the Wiki! maillist : ntg-context@ntg.nl / http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context webpage : http://www.pragma-ade.nl / http://tex.aanhet.net archive : http://foundry.supelec.fr/projects/contextrev/ wiki : http://contextgarden.net ___________________________________________________________________________________
