I was lucky to get a fast answer - but with your code I don't get the right
result:
-- start your code
\startmode[booklet]
\setuppapersize[A5][A4,landscape]
\setuparranging[2SIDE]
\stopmode
\starttext
First page
\startmode[booklet]
\null \page
\stopmode
etc.
\stoptext

With your code I get:
1 2 first page of the pdf
3 4 second
5 6 third
7 8 fourth
But I want to get:
1 first page of the pdf (coverpage)
2 3 second
4 5 third
6 7 fourth
8 fifth (coverpage)
I know how to use with modes - but the answer must be an other.
Maybe I have to explain it more clearly:
on the first PDF-Page (A5) there should be only the cover-page (page 1)
\setuppapersize[A5][A5]
\setuparranging[1SIDE]%<- I don't know how to write it - nothing was
working
On the second PDF-Page there should be page 2 and page 3
\setuppapersize[A5][A4,landscape]
\setuparranging[2SIDE]
It must be a problem lot's of people have when they make a book with ConTeXt
and want to make a second PDF-version for the Internet.
If you don't mind creating another file to convert a given double sided
pdf into the above format, you can use the following (pseudo code,
untested, and might have typos)
get number of pages in the pdf
\getfiguredimensions[filename]
\edef\NOfPages{\noffigurepages}
insert the first page
\startTEXpage[height=(A5 height}, width=(A5 width)]
\externalfigure[filename][page=1]
\stopTEXpage
loop and insert all but the last page (you may have to test if the number
of pages are odd or even and use \numexpr(\NOfPages - 1) to find the last
but one page:
\dostepwiserecurse{2}{2}{\LastButOnePage}
{ \startTEXpage[height=(A5 height), width=(A4 height)]
\expanded{\externalfigure[filename][page=\recurselevel]}%
\expanded{\externalfigure[filename][page=\numexpr\recurselevel+1\relax]}%
\stopTEXpage
}
If the number of pages is even, insert last page.
