Imorting multiple page pdf.
Some of my friends over on the Scribus list are struggling with pamphlet layout and so on. It occured to me that if a multiple page pdf created by Scribus were inserted into a Context file then the Context prepress manipulation could be used to set it up. Here is an edited fragment of an actual Context file I use every other month: ------------------------------------------ \setupoutput[pdftex] %% \setuplayout[textwidth=4.25in, location=middle, footer=10pt, header=0pt, backspace=.75in, textheight=8in], \startmode[hal] \definepapersize[halff][width=5.5in,height=8.5in] \definepapersize[ful][width=8.5in,height=11in] \setuppapersize[halff][ful] \setuparranging[2UP,rotated,doublesided] \stopmode %% %% -------------------------------------------------- Now is there a way to bring in properly sized pdf pages after this point and have them rearranged by Context? Could the whole file be brought in with one command? -- John Culleton Able Indexing and Typesetting Precision typesetting (tm) at reasonable cost. Satisfaction guaranteed. http://wexfordpress.com

Does \combinepages[test.pdf][nx=3,ny=5] do what you want? (Allows also, e.g., frame=on, alternative=a, start=1, stop=30, distance=, bottom, left=, right=,before=,after=,inbetween=,background=,backgroundcolor=) Tobias
