Hello,
I need to identify number of pages by Lua of an image which is to be inserted.
The image can be of all various types supported by Ctx - e.g. .png, .pdf.
I've been using the following code so far (based on a mailing thread in the past):
---- function nOfPages(fn) local fig = figures.push{name = fn} local info = figures.identify()
figures.check()
local n = fig.used.pages
inspect(fig)
figures.pop()
return n end ----
But the code above break Ctx in the case that the image doesn't exist.
I'd need to modify the solution somehow so to return 'nil' or 'false' (or a error message) in the case the file was not found.
How to do it?
