[NTG-context] Re: Asking help for better way to make tickets.

[Jeong Dal via ntg-context]

Dear Bruce and Marco,

Thank you for your suggestions. 
I think that it would be good enough to replace my code.
I learned new method which doesn’t use metaFun.

I’ll modify what you suggested for my purpose.

Thank you again.

Best regards,

Dalyoung

Not sure if it is 'nicer' but I use a table to print addresses onto sticky 
labels. The code should be fairly easy to adapt or just borrow some ideas.

Here's a suggestion:

\definepapersize
  [jeong]
  [width=67mm,
   height=73mm]

\setuppapersize
  [jeong]
  [A4]

\setuppaper
  [nx=3, ny=4,
   dx=4.4mm, dy=1.5mm]

\setuparranging
  [XY]

\setuplayout
  [page]

\setuppagenumbering
  [state=stop]

\setupmakeup
  [standard]
  [align=middle]

\setupblank
  [2*line]

\showframe
\starttext
  \dorecurse{12}{%%
\startstandardmakeup
Text \blank
{\tfd\recurselevel} \blank
Text
\stopstandardmakeup
\page}
\stoptext

That's how I'd approach it. Not sure if it meets all your
requirements, though.
