Dear list = members,

I create all my MetaFun drawings in a separate environment file where=20 each individual drawing sits inside a start/stopbuffer. This allows me=20= to easily use those drawings in all my documents using=20 \processMPbuffer[name]. Works just fine.

However, I also wish to=20 have all the drawing available in a pdf file (each drawing on a separate page). This allows me to split the pdf and use the drawing elsewhere=20 (e.g. in a Powerpoint) or include page(s) from the pdf in another=20 document.

The below MWE represent my = MetaFun drawings file.
The idea is that by uncommenting the \enablemode[makepdf] I can create the=20= pdf file with drawings. It seems however that startMPpage does not=20 accept buffers (I also tried processbuffer and processMPbuffer).

Is it possible to somehow make this work?
You can use

    \startTEXpage
        \processMPbuffer[=E2=80=A6]
    \stopTEXpage

but loading a buffer in MPpage doesn=E2=80=99t work because the content = of the=20 environment
is just passed to MetaPost and buffers can=E2=80=99t be loaded inside = MetaPost=20 code unless
Hans adds a function for this, e.g.

    \startMPcode
        buffer("mybuffer")
    \stopMPcode
