To use an http proxy for fetching Embedding inline images, via base64 encoding using the http variable memstream function ([http://w3.impa.br/~diego/software/luasocket/http.html LuaSocket]supports pdf and png streams) has to be set up as follows:
Replace `http://proxy.example.com:3128` with the proxy URL. To disable the proxy again: <texcode>\ctxlua{http = require("socket.http"); http.PROXY = nil}</texcode> = Image transformations Transformations =
= Pictures in Text =
You can directly place a figure in a text using <tt>\externalfigure= [cow]</tt>. If you want to align it not to the baseline, but lower you can try whether <tt>\bbox{\externalfigure[cowFloating Objects]}</tt> does the right thing, otherwise you have to tweek <tt>\smash{\lower24pt\hbox{\externalfigure[cow]}}</tt>=
= Pictures and Flowing Text = <context source=yes>\setuppapersize[A5]\setupexternalfigures[location={local,default}]\starthanging{\externalfigure[cow][width=4cm]}\input tufte\stophanging</context> {{cmd|starthanging}} is influenced by {{cmd|setuphanging}}, but doesn’t take parameters itself.It’s currently broken in MkII (here in the garden), but works with MkIV. If you want to have the image to the right, you can do: <texcode>\setuppapersize[A5]\setupexternalfigures[location={local,default}]\setuphanging[location=right]\starthanging{\externalfigure[cow][width=4cm]} \input tufte\stophanging</texcode> There are more options (distance can even be negative): <texcode>\setuppapersize[A5]\setupexternalfigures[location={local,default}]\setuphanging[location=right,n=2,distance=1cm]\starthanging{\externalfigure[cow][width=4cm]} \input tufte\stophanging</texcode> Parameter <tt>n</tt> defines how many lines should flow around, useful for pictures with whitespace below. This replaces undocumented <tt>\starthangaround</tt> (that you still might find [http://source.contextgarden.net/tex/context/base/cont-new.mkiv?search=hangaround in the source], if the garden isn’t updated yet). You might also want to look into [[Combinations]]. = Pictures as [[Floating Objects]] = Floats are numbered and placed by ConTeXt, with a configurable (and they can get a optional) caption.
= Floating graphics with an enlarged, shaded background =
To place a figure in, say, the right margin with a shaded background that is slightly larger than the figure (to give a bit of breathing room):
<texcode>
\setupcolors[state=start]
\placefigure[right,high,none]{}{\framed[frame=on, offset=10pt, framecolor=lightgray,
background=color, backgroundcolor=lightgray]%
{\externalfigure[sample/cow.pdf][scale=500]}}
\input knuth
</texcode>
== Full Page Image == * See [[Simple Cover Page]] = Hyperlinked Picture = This is an example of how to make a picture interactive. When the user clicks it, it invokes the user's browser to a given URL. <texcode>\setupinteraction[state=start] \starttextThis is a cow: \goto{\externalfigure[cow][height=2ex]}[url(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cow)]\stoptext </texcode> == See Also ==

= Basic Usage =
The simplest way to insert an image is to use:
<texcode>\externalfigure[logo.pdf][width=1cm]</texcode>
Similarly, to set the height of the image to a specific size, say <tt>2cm</tt>, use:
<texcode>\externalfigure[logo.pdf][height=2cm]</texcode>
If only the <tt>width</tt> or <tt>height</tt> of the image is specified, the other dimension is scaled appropriately to keep the aspect ratio.
<texcode>\externalfigure[logo.pdf][page=5]</texcode>
These four variations cover 90% of the most common use cases.
== File Formats ==
<tr class="even">
<td align="left"><strong>GIF</strong></td>
<td align="left"><code>.gitgif</code></td>
<td align="left"><code>gm</code> from GraphicsMagick</td>
</tr>
The conversion generates a PDF file with prefix <tt>m_k_i_v_</tt> and a suffix <tt>.pdf</tt> added to the name of the original file. The result is cached, and the conversion is rerun if the timestamp of the original file is newer than that of the converted file.
It is possible to change the converter used with the following code:
<pre>
\startluacode
local function converter(oldname, newname, resolution)
if not resolution or resolution == "" then
resolution = 50
end
os.execute(string.format(
'convert -density %ix%i "%s" "%s"',
resolution, resolution, oldname, newname)
)
end
-- Set the PDF and default TIFF converters to the above function.
figures.converters.tif.pdf = converter
figures.converters.tif.default = converter
\stopluacode
\starttext
% Substitute any TIFF here.
\externalfigure[cow.tiff]
\stoptext
</pre>
See also: https://source.contextgarden.net/tex/context/base/mkiv/grph-inc.lua
== Interaction ==
By default, the interactive elements of the included PDF file are discarded. To enable the interactive elements of the included PDF file, use
<texcode>\externalfigure[filename.pdf][interaction=yes]</texcode>
== Image Directory ==
To search for images in other directories, for example a <tt>./images</tt> subdirectory and <tt>/home/user/images</tt>, use:
<texcode>\setupexternalfigures [directory={images, /home/user/images}]</texcode>
Note: always use forward slashes (`/`) in path names, regardless of operating system.
The default search order is: the current directory, the parent directory, the grand-parent directory, and then the paths specified by the <tt>directory</tt> key. To restrict image search only to the paths specified by the <tt>directory</tt> key, use:
<texcode>\setupexternalfigures [location=global]</texcode>
To restore the default search behavior, use:
<texcode>\setupexternalfigures [location={local,global}]</texcode>
The ConTeXt distribution includes three sample images: <tt>cow.pdf</tt>, <tt>mill.png</tt>, and <tt>hacker.jpg</tt>, that are useful when creating minimum working examples to illustrate a bug on the mailing list. These images are locating in the <tt>TEXMF</tt> directory. To add the <tt>TEXMF</tt> directory to the image search path, use:
<texcode>\setupexternalfigures [location={local,global,default}]</texcode>
The above alternative adds the ''entire'' <tt>TEXMF</tt> directory to the search path, ''including the'' <tt>doc/</tt> ''directory!'' Therefore, one needs to be extremely careful when using this option. In fact, I would advise not using <tt>location=default</tt> except for illustrative minimal working examples.
The {{cmd|externalfigure}} command supports reading files from web servers, for example:
<texcode>\externalfigure [http://tug.org/images/logobw.jpg]</texcode>
When a document containing a remote file is compiled for the first time, the remote file is downloaded from the server and stored in the LuaTeX cache directory. This cached file is used during subsequent runs.
<pre>context --directives=schemes.threshold=120 <em>filename</em></pre>
The variable <tt>schemes.threshold</tt> is global, so changing its value affects all other macros like <tt>\input</tt>, <tt>\usemodule</tt>, <tt>\component</tt>, etc. that load remote files.
=== HTTP Proxy ===
To use an http proxy for fetching images, the http variable ([http://w3.impa.br/~diego/software/luasocket/http.html LuaSocket]) has to be set up as follows:
<texcode>
\ctxlua{http = require("socket.http"); http.PROXY = "http://proxy.example.com:3128"}
</texcode>
Replace `http://proxy.example.com:3128` with the proxy URL.
To disable the proxy again:
<texcode>
\ctxlua{http = require("socket.http"); http.PROXY = nil}
</texcode>
=== HTTPS ===
For self-signed certificates retrieved over HTTPS, the `curl` command requires a flag to retrieve insecure files, which is not enabled by default. Open `tex/texmf-context/tex/context/base/mkiv/data-sch.lua` to find:
<pre>

== Image Scaling ==
<texcode>\externalfigure[logo.pdf][xscale=500]
\externalfigure[logo.pdf][yscale=500]</texcode>
Scaling changes the visible size of a picture, but not the data or file size. If you want to reduce your file size by decreasing image resolution, see [[Downsampling]].
== Image Dimension Restriction ==
<texcode>\clip[nx=3,ny=3,x=2,y=2]
{\externalfigure[logo.pdf]}</texcode>
In PDF files, it is possible to specify different size information in PDF headers MediaBox, TrimBox, CropBox, and ArtBox. To clip to one of these sizes, use
<texcode>\externalfigure[logo.pdf][size=art]</texcode>
Other options are: `none` (detault), `media` for MediaBox, `crop` for CropBox, `trim` for TrimBox, and `art` for ArtBox.
= Troubleshooting =
ConTeXt includes a Perl script <tt>pdftrimwhite</tt> that removes extra white space at the borders of a PDF file. To run this script:
<pre>mtxrun --script pdftrimwhite <em>[flags] input output</em></pre>
The most important flag is <tt>--offset=dimen</tt>, which keeps some extra space around the trimmed image.
<texcode>\externalfigure[mylogo]</texcode>
<texcode>
You find more about floats ([[Floating Objects]]) in the manual.
= Movies =
Movies aren't recognized automatically yet, you need a more verbose declaration; they must be delcared verbosely:
