[fptex] is the mpost (MetaPost) fully functional in fptex?

[Luis A Escobar]

Fabrice: good to hear from you.  Thank you for the reply.
 Well, the problem is that the postscript that is created is corrupted.
 I can't read it the postscript with teh gsview32. I can't import the
 file into a latex document, etc.

  I will send you a simple example with the corresponding Postscript and
log
  files. I will do that sometime today late in the day.

 Thank you.

  Best regards, Luis A

What failure are you experiencing exactly?

When it fails, it is usually because the wrong tex engine is called my
makempx. Look into the mpxerr.* file or send it.
