Hello list members:
I would like to make a photo montage (4x3 images on one page) using
\placefigure, \externalfigure and combinations. The images should be scaled to
the
same size, eg to .25\textwith and .3\textheight so that the aspect ratios of
the images
are kept and the appropriate value is used for width or height. That is the
smaller value
from .25\textwith and .3\textheight is used for the image size.
Using only \useexternalfigure[Fig1][1.jpg][width=.25\textwidth] may not give
the correct
result if the image requires size adjustment by height and vice versa. Defining
both
width and height results in exact resizing and the aspect ratio is not
maintained.
How can this be solved?
\useMPlibrary[dum]
\showframe
\starttext
\setuplayout[middle]
\defineexternalfigure[quarter][factor=max]
\vbox{\dorecurse{4}{\hbox{\hsize.25\textwidth\vsize.25\textheight\dorecurse{4}{\externalfigure[dummy][quarter]}}}}
\page
\setuppapersize[A4,landscape] \setuplayout[middle]
\vbox{\dorecurse{4}{\hbox{\hsize.25\textwidth\vsize.25\textheight\dorecurse{4}{\externalfigure[dummy][quarter]}}}}
\stoptext
