Hi there,

I would like to use imposition to rearrange an existing PDF as a booklet, but I don' have ConTeXt installed on the machine I would like to do it.

Using http://live.contextgarden.net/ might do the job, but I have problems to load the local file.

Is there any way to load a local file (or even an URL) with ConTeXt? How should I rewrite the following command to load a local file or an URL in ConteXt live?

In mkii, this is simply impossible.

If you have the program "curl" installed, you can use an url as a file name in context mkiv.

curl as os.spawn ? Why don't use lua-curl http://luaforge.net/projects/lua-curl/ -- luigi
