Hi list,

I'm trying to scale a text to the textwidth and textheight by keeping
the aspect ratio, using different papersizes.
When the dimensions get too big I get an "Arithmetic overflow".
(I'm trying to do something similar to resizebox in LaTeX:
http://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/55394/perfectly-scale-line-paragraph-image-anything-up-to-textwidth)

Minimal example:
\setuppapersize[A4][A4] %% [A1][A1]
\showframe
\starttext
\scale[factor=max,width=\textwidth,height=\textheight]{\framed[frame=on]{!}}
\stoptext

Error message:
! Arithmetic overflow.
