Document with only figures

Document with only figures

[Charles]

Hi,

I would like to have a document with only figures, something like that:

\starttext
\placefigure[page]{\externalfigure[figure1]}
\placefigure[page]{\externalfigure[figure1]}
\placefloats
\stoptext

The problem is if I don't add some text, no PDF is created. (and this 
text will have its own page).

I was expecting \placefloats to do what I want, but it's not working. 
And \placefigure doesn't have a 'center' option.

Any ideas?

Thanks

Charles

\starttext
\centerednextbox{\externalfigure[figure1]}
\centerednextbox{\externalfigure[figure2]}
\stoptext

Hi Charles,

If I use your example I get an error. The \placefigure command needs the structure \placefigure[page][]{}{\externalfigure[cow]}, where the second pair of brackets is optional (here you would place the reference). Default is centered

Here the command \placefloats is not necessary to get the floats placed.

Hi Willi,

Sorry for the mistakes. But the default in centered horizontally but not 
vertically on the page, and I would like to have this.

Hi Wolfgang,

Thanks for your reply. But I would like to have a figure (with 
placefigure) and the centerednextbox doesn't center vertically.

Sorry but I used the wrong command, this works:

\starttext
\centerbox{\externalfigure[cow]}
\centerbox{\externalfigure[mill]}
\stoptext

Re: Document with only figures

I put the \placefigure (w/o the page option) of the first figure inside 
a \centerbox and it's working.

Thank you very much for your help.

There are simpler ways to place a caption below the figure:

\setuppairedbox[legend][align=middle]
\starttext
\centerbox{\placelegend{\externalfigure[cow]}{A dutch cow}}
\centerbox{\placelegend{\externalfigure[mill]}{A mill}}
\stoptext
