=EF=BB=BF

Thanks for the solution Pablo. It work= s well.

I wanted to add more pdfs (which also h= as many pages) and found it was easier for me to reason in the lua side of t= hings. This is what I have at the moment:

= \starttext
\startluacode
local function d= oc(fil)
return fil..[[.pdf]]
= ; end

local function disppdf(fname)
n =3D 1
repeat&nbs= p;
context.externalfigure({fname},{
page =3D n,
= width =3D "200mm",
s= cale =3D "950"
})
&n= bsp; n =3D n + 1
until n =3D=3D context(c= ontext.noffigurepages)
end

local pdffiles =3D {"ass1", "ass2", "ass3", "ass4", "ass5", "ass6", "= ass7", "ass8"}
for index=3D1,#pdffiles do
local f =3D doc(pdffiles[index])
&= nbsp; context.getfiguredimensions({f})
disppdf(p= dffiles[index])
end
\stopluacode
\stoptext

I didn=E2= =80=99t know how to get an array (or indexed table or whatever you call it) i= n ConTeXt/Tex. My problem is now with context(context.noffigurepages). A= m I calling it wrong? All I want to do is call \noffigurepages from the lua s= ide. Is there something I am missing?

The problem is the origin= al page numbers show and I=E2=80=99d prefer that it

Hi Jethro,

it works using= \clip with \externalfigure inside a loop (\dorecurse).

With \getfiguredimensions you get the number of pages of each PDFdocument (\noffigurepages).

The fo= llowing source both generates the source PDF document and the
= imposed result with clipped pages (just to see a sample of the commands
mentioned above):

\startbuffer[= newbuff]
\setuppapersize[A3]
\setupb= odyfont[sans, 1200pt]
\starttext
\do= recurse{8}
{\startmakeup[page][pagestate=3Dstart, align=3D= center, style=3D\bf]
\recurselevel
= \stopmakeup}
\stoptext
\stopb= uffer
\startmode[*first]
\savebuffer= [newbuff][source_page.tex, prefix=3Dno]
\executesystemco= mmand{context --purgeall source_page.tex}
\stopmode
\setuplayout[page]
\setuppapersize[A6][A= 4]
\setuppaper[nx=3D2, ny=3D2]
\setu= parranging [XY]
\starttext
\startnot= mode[*first]
\def\Doc{source_page.pdf}
&nb= sp;\getfiguredimensions[\Doc]
\dorecurse{\noffigurepages= }
{\clip[hoffset=3D96mm, voffset=3D136mm, width=3D= 105mm, height=3D148mm]
{\externalfi= gure[\Doc][page=3D\recurselevel]}}
\stopnotmode
\stoptext

Just in case it might hel= p,

Pablo
