what i'm looking for is a way to
1. postpone a page, just before it is shipped out
2. instead ship out a page with saved tokens (images)
3. and then ship out the postponed page.

it tried to hook into the output routine without success because the 
\everybeforeoutput is typeset after the page is shipped out.

pageinjection [previouspage] sort of does what i want, but its a blank page 
without the layout.

any hints how i can solve this?

many thanks michael
