+%D   {pdfoutput}
+%D
+%D There are some fundamental differences between producing
+%D \DVI\ and \PDF\ output, especially when we use \PDFTEX, like
+%D object reuse, one pass graphic inclusion and the lack of a
+%D postprocessing stage. Because we must make sure that
+%D \CONTEXT\ knows what it's up to, we always default to \DVI\
+%D mode, even when users explicitly ask for \PDF\ output in the
+%D \PDFTEX\ configuration file.
