Greetings, Regardless of the selection criteria, the select tool selects only the first page. This feature works in my ConTeXt versions from 2024.05.17 and 2024.08.13. I'm running the latest version, i.e. 2024.09.17.
context --extra=select --selection=11:16 forexample.pdf I've attached the output in a log file if anyone's interested. Any suggestions? -- With kind regards, Michael Guravage <http://literatesolutions.com>
