 Hi,
 
 I am trying to include a single test page in my document. The
 following code fails to set the PDF as the background layer for the
 cover page. I've tried several variations
 (http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Including_pages_from_PDF_documents),
 but nothing works. It seems to be a problem with this specific PDF
 being included.
 
 The code:

 \def\PictureFrontCover{http://www.education.gov.yk.ca/pdf/pdf-test.pdf}
 

Mh, is there a resolver for http-adresses in ConTeXt? I guess if you use
a local file path, things should work as expected (not tested).

sure there is ... already for many years

(as luigi mentioned, the pdf is bugged so it depends on how good a pdf 
handler can recover)

I see. Never tried, never needed it. But I guess I was naive to assume
the lack of such a feature..  ;-)

Yes, the PDF is encrypted; it is only displayable, but not changeable or 
embeddable.
