Hi, I’d like to place pages from a multipage PDF in a combination:
\startcombination[3*1]
\dorecurse{3}{%
{\externalfigure[multipage][width=\textwidth/3,page=\recurselevel]}{}
}
\stopcombination
That doesn’t work, because ConTeXt expects a { after \startcombination.
(“A left brace was mandatory here, so I've put one in.”)
I guess I need some expansion, but \expanded doesn’t help.
How can I do this?
Hraban

Sorry for the noise, I solved it with Lua. The cld manual even contains
a combinations example.

The Lua method is also simpler than a TeX based alternative.
