Hi,

I am an IT Consultant working for a UK company Capita Symonds.

I'm currently learning and utilising ConTeXt as part of a bigger web-based application for automating the production of office stationery.

I am no expert at ConTeXt but have, through necessity, had to learn (rapidly!) about the following aspects of this amazing software:

  • Installation and use of OpenType fonts
  • Creation of press-ready PDF files
  • Use of spot colours
    • Conversion of spot-colour based EPS graphics to PDF format
    • Inclusion of said PDF graphics in ConTeXt document
    • Defining text colours which match the colour names used in the EPS graphics
    • Testing of colour separation using GhostScript

I intend to write up what I've learnt once my deadline is over.

Mark.
