Stefan,
your script doesn't work because the second picture box is created
at the beginning of the _document_ and then it is adressed as being
on the last page.
You dont need to count the pages. Just show the last page (= 'page -1')
and then address it as 'current page'.
The size of the document mustn't be defined using 'bounds'. Although
this works, haven't you asked yourself why there isn't a 'close'
button of the window anymore? ;-) You must change the properties of
the default document and use 'page width', 'page height'.
No need for passing the value of the counter 'i'. Just move the
beginning of the repeat loop after the making of the document.
Then show the last page, make the picture box and so on. No need,
too, for a handler.

make picture box at beginning with properties {bounds:{12.7, 12.7, 136, 195}}
tell picture box 1
set image 1 to (item i of completepath) as alias
set bounds of image 1 to proportional fit
end tell
end tell
make page at end
end tell
end repeat
end tell
