I am not seeking a background but rather a
foreground. And I only need this for 7 chapter
heads. Here is how I put the page image into my
context file now:
-------------------------------------------------
\startstandardmakeup[doublesided=no]
\vskip -0.15in
 \hskip -0.7in
\hbox{\externalfigure[chaphead2.pdf][width=\paperwidth,
height=\paperheight]} \stopstandardmakeup
\writetolist[chapter]{2}{Chapter 2: Understanding
the Food Industry}%
------------------------------------------------
This works but I want a less fiddly-more
reliable method.
