that works fine, thank you very much! This is my test code now:

-----------------------
\directlua{
  a=node.new("whatsit","pdf_literal")
  b=node.new("whatsit","pdf_literal")
  a.data = "q 0 w 20 20 m 140  20 l 140 160 l 20 160 l W n "
  b.data = "Q"
  image = img.scan{filename="cow.pdf"}
  i = img.node(image)
  node.insert_after(a,a,i)
  node.insert_after(a,i,b)
  head = node.hpack(a)
  tex.box[0] = head
}


\box0

\bye
-----------------------

I wonder how it compares to the slightly different approach pdflatex uses 
(pdftex.def?). If I see it correctly the graphicx package creates an 
xobject/form from the bitmap and changes the bounding box there.


Thanks again!

Patrick
