No problem with page=1.
No problem with other name for pdf-file (for example "pdftest.pdf" instead of "2*8.pdf").
No problem, if pdf-file is in current directory instead of "testdir".
Hello, After some further investigation, I've found that the reason for this problem is a pdf file in my installation: /opt/context/tex/texmf-local/tex/context/peter/samples/unten-21478.pdf So please try "o*w" instead of "2*8", and you'll be able to reproduce the problem! But there is still a difference: texmf-local: when using "\externalfigure[2*8][page=1]" on my installation, I get really the first page of 2*8.pdf and not the "unten-21478.pdf". texmf-context: when using "\externalfigure[o*w][page=1]" you'll get the cow. So the question is: - bug? - or don't ever use "*" in a filename? Cheers, Peter -- Contact information: http://pmrb.free.fr/contact/
