Dear wizards,
I was wondering whether there's a way to have ConTeXt spill out each
\startMPpage
…
\stopMPpage
it encounters as a separate PDF file … by default all MPpages seem to
be collected into a single PDF file. Which is nice as long as this
file is postprocessed by another ConTeXt document … however, I need to
extract the individual figures from within LaTeX. So if anyone happens
to know how to instruct LaTeX's graphicx package to do just that this
would be a lovely alternative :-)
Oliver

All known TeX engines can only produce one output file per run.

just keep them in one file and access the images by page, so .. include
page 4 from file bla.pdf

IIRC, graphicx package in LaTeX can do that, so it should not be a
problem. Otherwise, you can use pdftk and "burst" the pdf into separate
pages.

Ah, you've probably got me wrong … what I'd like to know is whether
there's a LaTeX equivalent of
\externalfigure[all_my_figures.pdf][page=1]
so perhaps something along the lines of
\includegraphics[page=1]{all_my_figures.pdf}?

This is what I'd do with ConTeXt … wicked trick, by the way ;-) But
how to do that with LaTeX? I know it's somewhat off topic …

From what I heard on the MacTeX list this can be done using LaTeX's
pdfpages package …
Just in case someone might find this helpful.

You could use ConTeXt
texexec --split filename
