Scaling with \filterpages not working?

Scaling with \filterpages not working?

[Procházka Lukáš Ing. - Pontex s. r. o.]

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 700 bytes --]

Hello,

I'm trying similar code as described on http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Including_pages_from_PDF_document:

---
\starttext
   \filterpages[1.pdf][2][width=15cm]
   \page
   \filterpages[1.pdf][2][width=5cm]
\stoptext
---

But I'm still getting the same picture - scaled to (probably) \textwidth.

Bug? My mistake?

So how to scale to paper width (or any arbitrary value)?

Only the horizontal shift of \copypages looks fishy (as all other values
seem to fit).

maybe


\definelayout[fullpage]
  [height=\paperheight,
   width=\paperwidth,
   header=0mm,
   footer=0mm,
   margin=0mm,
   topspace=0mm,
   bottomspace=0mm,
   backspace=0mm,
  ]


\starttext
\showframe
  AAA\page
  \setuplayout[fullpage]
  \copypages[1.pdf]
  \setuplayout[reset]
  \page
  BBB
\stoptext



Best wishes,  Peter

"fullpage" is not needed. There is already \setuplayout[page].
Cheers, Peter

commands like \filterpages are for special purposes (and will probably 
move to modules), you probably want:

\starttext
    \externalfigure[1.pdf][page=2,width=15cm]
    \page
    \externalfigure[1.pdf][page=2,width=5cm]
\stoptext

Thanks all for the answers.

The solution by both Peters works well:

---
\starttext
   \filterpages[1.pdf][1:2]
   \page

   \setuplayout[page]
   \filterpages[1.pdf][1:2]
   \setuplayout[reset]
   \page
\stoptext
---

To Hans:

I really needed to filter out some pages.

(In this case, I wanted to use pages 1-2 from a pdf which has exactly 2 pages, but it won't happen in general - this was only a special sample case.)

My task IN GENERAL is - let's have a pdf of a scanned document. Let it have e.g. 20 pages. And I need to insert pages 1-10 at one place and 16-20 at another place (scanned pages 11-15 won't be used).

These pages are to be placed UNSCALED to the document. So:

- I can't use \externalfigure as it places just ONE specific page to the document.

- I can't use \insertpages as I can determine only the NUMBER of pages to include, but not the FIRST page (see the "n=..." option).

- I can't use \copypages for the same reason as \insertpages.

- So the one possibility is to use \filterpages as it offers possibility to select exact pages or their ranges.

The initial problem was that \filterpages scales inserted pages to \textwidth so I tried to play with the "width" option. And the "width" option works - how exactly? (See the previous trials.)

Best regards,

Lukas
