Dear Otared,
when you read the lua code in the first \directlua{}, you should realize that
the dimensions of almost all layout elements are depending on the value of my
lua variable "paperSize".
Thanks to defining the paper size first in lua, I can apply calculations of
numeric values.
The value of paperSize is later passed on to \setuppapersize via
\setuppapersize[\directlua{tex.print(paperSize)}]
