Hi Hraban,

the document sent by Mari (ex.pdf) contains the following information:

    4 0 obj

    <<

      /CropBox [ 265.961 392.102 329.315 445.535 ]

      /Parent 2 0 R

      /Contents 5 0 R

      /BleedBox [ 265.961 392.102 329.315 445.535 ]

      /MediaBox [ -9 -9 604.276 850.89 ]

      /TrimBox [ 265.961 392.102 329.315 445.535 ]

      /Resources <<

        /ProcSet [ /PDF ]

        /ExtGState <<

          /GS6 6 0 R

        >>

      >>

      /Type /Page

    >>

    endobj


I would say, that in the following sample:

    \starttext

    \externalfigure[ex.pdf][size=crop]

    \stoptext


the option "size" doesn’t seem to work.

Or is the original ex.pdf document flawed?

we are working to extend luatex to manage these situations.
