Now that I look at the complete path, yes, this appears to originate out of the Context package. I'm attaching the original file and a copy of the .log that is generated. I really do appreciate your assistance in this matter.

Thanks, again.

I am wondering if this is a Font problem, obscured by all of the other messages that the program produces, or if it has to do with my use of particular packages. Again, I have this problem ONLY on the Mac.
