Hi Lukas, Due to the fact, that I am a user of CONTEXT during spare time, it is sometimes somewhat difficult to give immediate reactions....
As I understand your mail you intend to prepare 5 sections, each consisting out of 4 sheets of paper each sheet of paper carrying 2 pages on both sides. A section has 16 pages. THIS IS NO PROBLEM! Context resolves that for you! Please refer to the attached sample-file. After compilation you will have two sample sections... I hope this will be of help. Kind regards Willi >I am typesetting a book of poems that should be sewed per about 4 sheets >(16 pages = 2pages per side doublesided) for better reading. The book will >be sewed of app. 5 such booklets.
