Thanks Hans for the answer.

I made another try with
file1.tex:

\setuppapersize[A3,landscape][A3,landscape]
\starttext
\dorecurse{1500}{\input tufte \par \input knuth \par}
\stoptext


and merge.tex:

\definepapersize[A3large][width=320mm,height=450mm,offset=0pt]
\setuppapersize[A3,landscape][A3,landscape]
\setuplayout
    [backspace=0pt,marking=on,
     height=middle,width=middle,location=middle,
     topspace=0pt,
     header=0pt,
     footer=0pt]
\starttext
\insertpages[file1.pdf][width=0pt]
\stoptext

The results are:
 799537 ago  7 17:55 file1.pdf
1515097 ago  7 17:56 merge.pdf

Also pdffonts file1.pdf give
name                                 type         emb sub uni object ID
------------------------------------ ------------ --- --- --- ---------
EGNYTD+CMR12                         Type 1       yes yes no       6  0


but  pdffonts merge.pdf give
name                                 type         emb sub uni object ID
------------------------------------ ------------ --- --- --- ---------
AGPRLI+CMSS8                         Type 1       yes yes no      15  0
MGUYCG+CMR12                         Type 1       yes yes no       7  0
:
:
MGUYCG+CMR12                         Type 1       yes yes no       7  0


ie the  line
MGUYCG+CMR12                         Type 1       yes yes no       7  0
 is repeated 408 (yes, four hundred) times .

Do I mess with pdftex.cfg or some *.map files ?
