I've been using it in LuaLaTeX for quite some time, by the way. Please read the first page on the package documentation: http://mirrors.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/pdfpages/pdfpages.pdf Currently There are very few things that will not work under luatex, for now (certain microtype properties, like letter tracking, and little else). In fact, the current trend is the opposite: many new packages that are emerging do not work under pdftex. The natural evolution of the TeX ecosystem is heading to LuaTeX, although it is normal for the TeX community to be cautious about backward compatibility and still mantain pdfTeX. But the present is already LuaTeX, clearly. The future, who knows... Best regards, Juan Manuel=20
