embedding multipage pdf

[andrea valle]

Hi to all,

I'm preparing a (standard) musical score.
I've scored the music with lilypond and I have as output an A3 pdf of 
many pages.
My idea was to create the cover and the other information pages 
surrounding the music with Context.
In fact, I happily prepared my A3 context pages and I was trying to 
include the music pdf in the resulting tex file .
I simply put my pdf in \externalfigure: it works, but only for first 
page.

How do I include all the pdf?

I can solve printing the pages from the context and lilypond output 
files, and then gluing the resulting paper, but I'd like to have an 
integrated source file to be printed.

Thanks a lot

Hello Andrea,

the page

http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Including_pages_from_PDF_document

has been very helpful for me when inserting pdf pages.

Best regards, Mikael Persson

Thanks Mikael,
sorry, I didn't think about wiki.

So I solved using copypages.

The only thing is that it seems to me that even if I use scale=1000 (or 
if I leave it untouched) the copied pdf seems to be scled the same 
(it's smaller than original).

Why?

Hi again Andrea,

Could the reason be that you have margins/similar things? With the
following I see no differences of the files pauli.pdf, dirac.pdf and
the resulting file.

\setuppagenumbering[state=stop]
\setuplayout[
width=210mm,
height=297mm,
margin=0cm,
header=0cm,
footer=0cm,
topspace=0cm,
backspace=0cm,
]
\starttext
\insertpages[pauli.pdf][n=18]
\page[odd]
\insertpages[dirac.pdf][n=24]
\stoptext

Best regards, Micke P

Because of margins of current page ?
