Subject: Size of the last shipped page by Lua?
Date: Wed, 07 Sep 2016 17:12:04 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <op.ynfduea162epfj@lpr> (raw)
Hello,
is there a way to detect by Lua what is the size (width and height) of the last shipped page?
Especially I'm interested in the situation when page via \start/\stopTEXpage has been shipped, like:
----
\startluacode
LastPageSize = function()
-- What to come here?
return w, h
end
\stopluacode
\starttext
\startluacode
local w, h = LastPageSize()
context("w="..w .. ", h=" ..h) -- Should give "w=210mm, h=297mm" (or other units)
\stopluacode
\startTEXpage[with=10cm,height=15cm]
\stopTEXpage
\startluacode
local w, h = LastPageSize()
context("w="..w .. ", h=" ..h) -- Should give "w=100mm, h=150mm" (or other units)
\stopluacode
\stoptext
----
This would be very useful when I need to insert a page of size of the last page to move to odd page when A4 and A3 pages are mixed, to allow simple duplex printing on the printer.
So - how about 'LastPageSize()' function?
Best regards,
Lukas
