* '''[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Portable_Document_Format PDF]''': File extension <code>.pdf</code>. By default, ''mediabox'' is used to determine size. Use <code>size=artbox</code> to use ''artbox''.
* '''[MPS] (MetaPost Output)''': File extension <code>.mps</code> or <code>.[digits]</code>. Converted to PDF on the fly using MPtoPDF. - - * '''[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JPEG JPEG]''': File extension <code>.jpg</code> and <code>.jpeg</code>
* '''[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Portable_Network_Graphics PNG]''': File extesion <code>.png</code>
* '''[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JPEG_2000 JPEG 2000]: File extesion <code>.jp2</code>
* '''[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scalable_Vector_Graphics SVG]''': File extension <code>.svg</code> and <code>.svgz</code>. Converted to PDF using [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inkscape Inkscape].
: For the conversion to work, <code>inkscape</code> should be in the <code>PATH</code>. The following command is used for conversion:
inkscape [inputfile] --export-dpi=600 -A [outputfile]
: (Note: Conversion to PNG is also possible, but I don't know the details on how to active that -- 03:32, 29 November 2012 (CET)).
* '''[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PostScript PS]''' and '''[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Encapsulated_PostScript EPS]''': File extension <code>.eps</code> and <code>.ai</code>. Converted to PDF using [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ghostscript Ghostscript].
: For the conversion to work, on Windows <code>gswin32c</code> must be in the <code>PATH</code>; on other platforms <code>gs</code> must be in the <code>PATH</code>. The following command line options are passed to Ghostscript
: By default, the <code>[resolution]</code> is ''prepress''. Use <code>resolution=low</code> to change the <code>[resolution]</code> to ''screen'' and <code>resolution=meidum</code> to change the <code>[resolution]</code> to ''ebook''.
* '''[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GIF GIF]''': File extension <code>.gif</code>. Converted to PDF using [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GraphicsMagick GraphicsMagick].
: For the conversion to work, <code>gm</code> should be in the <code>PATH</code>. The following command is used for the conversion:

: For the conversion to work, <code>gm</code> should be in the <code>PATH</code>. The following command is used for the conversion:
The following movie formats are supported.
* '''[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/QuickTime QuickTime]''': File extension <code>.mov</code>.
: (Note: Check if this works?)
Normally, the type of file is determined by the extension of the file. If the file uses a non-standard extension, then use <code>method=....</code> to specify the file type. If <code>method=<b>auto</b></code> is used, ConTeXt reads the first few bytes of the file to determine the filetype. Such an auto-discovery is useful for remote images that do not have a file extension.
