Hello,
I have a big context source file which contains pictures from different
sources.. The problem is, that there are some pictures the context

cannot process. It displays an error message and ends. I run the context
from another script in batchmode. After finishing, the context creates a
PDF file, which contains this problematic picture but the pdf is broken.
It does not have numbers in the table of contents and it is not arranged
by setup.
Here is a minimal example:
\starttext
\externalfigure[http://cdn-locations-images.tripomatic.com/img-poi1295-5ZTynx-s.jpg][width=26.5mm]

\stoptext

When I run the context, it prints:
! Dimension too large.

it all depends on the original ... how small is it? one pixel? one option is then to scale in  two steps:

\scale[width=26.5cm]{\externalfigure[...][width=1mm]}

or so

Original file has width 240px and height 160px but no mather what I try:
\scale[width=26.5cm]{\externalfigure[...][width=1mm]}
\scale[width=26.5cm]{\externalfigure[...][width=240mm]}
\scale[width=26.5cm]{\externalfigure[...][width=240px]}
I got allways the same result with "Dimension too large" error message
