I have the same problem as described by adam.baker in this post:

\includepdf only shows first page, despite having multiple pages.

(This seems to be not limited to pdfpages, because graphicx with

\includegraphics[page=2]{external} also shows ONLY page 1.)

I have inserted my log file as answer in the original post.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  • You are using which LaTeX compiler: pdflatex, lualatex, xelatex? Try \usepackage{mwe} ... \includegraphics[page=2]{example-image-a4-numbered} and check if it works with that to make sure it is not your external file which is the problem. – Martin Scharrer Feb 07 '19 at 13:42
  • Your system is not up-to-date. Run the miktex console update as user to update the packages in your user tree. – Ulrike Fischer Feb 07 '19 at 13:52
  • @MartinScharrer: please refer to original post - the "external file" has been compiled as described there. Log shows compiler used (pdflatex). I tried your hints as well; shows only page one (black "1" on red ground). Both for \includepdf and \includegraphics. – Martin Brennecke Feb 07 '19 at 15:50
  • @UlrikeFischer: thought so too - but MikTeX Console shows no updates available (both for user and admin). This is exactly as described in original post. – Martin Brennecke Feb 07 '19 at 16:01
  • Your log shows outdated user packages in Appdata\Roaming (e.g. C:\Users\Brennecke\AppData\Roaming\MiKTeX\2.9\tex/latex/pdfpages\pdfpages.sty) but above the user installation goes to AppData\Local. That's rather odd. Ask in the miktex issue tracker, if and how you can correct the userinstall tree. – Ulrike Fischer Feb 07 '19 at 16:10

    I'm voting to close this question as off-topic because the issue was due to a malfunctioning TeX distribution, solved by doing appropriate maintenance. – egreg Feb 07 '19 at 16:51
  • @egreg: not sure, if I understand the implications of what you are saying, but you are right - the problem was due to the distribution. (Note: previous version basic-miktex-2.9.6520-x64.exe was uninstalled via Windows Control Panel/Programs and Features; after that basic-miktex-2.9.6942-x64.exe was installed via Run as administrator and option "install for all users". No manual changes to any paths. Therefore I guess it is likely that somebody else might encounter something similar.) – Martin Brennecke Feb 07 '19 at 17:15

@UlrikeFischer: thank you very much indeed for pointing out the incorrect paths! I was able to resolve the problem with the "cleanup" entry of MikTeX Console. Just clicked "Reset personal MikTeX configuration" (it took a while for the operation to complete). After that it worked like a charm.

Thanks again a lot!
