Thank you Wolfgang.
Follow-up question: how to have a right margin appear on the right side of
every booklet page?
The layouts I have tried with the following mwe put the right margin on the cut
side of the paper, but that “reverses” the margin side from the reader’s view
when printed and folded.
\definepapersize[booklet][width=140mm,height=216mm]
\setuppapersize[booklet][letter,landscape]
\setuppagenumbering[alternative=doublesided]
\setuparranging[2UP,doublesided]
\setuplayout[
width=90mm,
leftedge=0mm,
leftmargin=0mm,
backspace=15mm,
rightmargindistaince=3mm,
rightmargin=25mm,
]
\showframe
\starttext
\dorecurse{4}{\input ward \page}
\stoptext
