How do I insert a picture to cover the whole background of a single page only? This is what happened with the code

Question

I want to insert a logo for a single page. The logo should cover the whole page size. How do I do it?

eso-pic package might help – user190633 Jun 12 '19 at 12:25 — user190633, Jun 12 '19 at 12:25

with the eso-pic package:

\documentclass{article}

\usepackage{lipsum}
\usepackage{graphicx}
\usepackage{eso-pic}


\begin{document}


\AddToShipoutPictureBG*{\includegraphics[height=\paperheight]{example-image}}

\lipsum

\end{document}

with the tikz package:

\documentclass{article}

\usepackage{lipsum}
\usepackage{graphicx}
\usepackage{tikz}


\begin{document}

\begin{tikzpicture}[remember picture, overlay]
\node at (current page.center) {\includegraphics[height=\paperheight]{example-image}};
\end{tikzpicture}

\lipsum

\end{document}

Edit: to place the image NOT in the background but on a page of its own:

\documentclass{article}

\usepackage{lipsum}
\usepackage{graphicx}
\usepackage{tikz}


\begin{document}

\lipsum[2]

\clearpage
\begin{tikzpicture}[remember picture, overlay]
\node at (current page.center) {\includegraphics[height=\paperheight]{example-image}};
\end{tikzpicture}
\clearpage

\lipsum[2]

\end{document}

or with pdfpages:

\documentclass{article}

\usepackage{lipsum}
\usepackage{pdfpages}


\begin{document}

\lipsum[2]

\includepdf[height=\paperheight]{example-image}

\lipsum[2]

\end{document}

@NirashanPradhan Huh, which text do you mean? – user190633 Jun 12 '19 at 12:35
see my edit above – astroplot Jun 12 '19 at 12:44
@NirashanPradhan So you don't want it in the background but as a standalone page? – user190633 Jun 12 '19 at 12:47
I want it in a single page only – astroplot Jun 12 '19 at 12:53
@NirashanPradhan I added two more solutions for not placing it in the backgroud. is this what you want? – user190633 Jun 12 '19 at 13:02
I want it as abackground to be able to write above it – astroplot Jun 12 '19 at 13:05
@NirashanPradhan Sorry, I have to give up. I have no idea what you are asking – user190633 Jun 12 '19 at 13:07
I want the image as the background of the page and texts to be written above it. – astroplot Jun 12 '19 at 13:12
