* Size of the last shipped page by Lua? @ 2016-09-07 15:12 Procházka Lukáš Ing. 2016-09-07 19:39 ` josephcanedo 0 siblings, 1 reply; 8+ messages in thread From: Procházka Lukáš Ing. @ 2016-09-07 15:12 UTC (permalink / raw) To: ConTeXt 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 -- Ing.
