Re: [NTG-context] page arrangement
Hi Hans,
> \setuppapersize[A5,landscape][A4] \setuparranging[2TOPSIDE]
it is better, but still I obtain different solution that is desired. There
is an empty sheet before the last one if \pageno mod 4 != 0
My result in the table:
sheet contains pages: sheet should contain pages
#pages #sheets 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 1 2 3 4
1 31- -- --1- (--)
2 31- -- 2-1- 2-
3 313 -- 2-13 2-
4 213 2413 24
5 713 24 5- -- --13 24 5- (--)
6 513 24 5- -- 6-13 24 5- 6-
7 513 24 57 -- 6-13 24 57 6-
8 413 24 57 6813 24 57 68
- = empty page
Is problem in my old ConTeXt or in the macro?

Hmm, a bit less typing.
And one more question related arranging. I suppose, that arranging has no
effect to the page contents.
But using \setuparranging the empty table of content occures. If not use
\setuparranging toc is OK.
Testing file:
--
\setuppapersize[A5,landscape][A4]
%\setuparranging[2TOPSIDE]
\starttext
Content: \placecontent
\switchtobodyfont[20pt]
\dorecurse{7}{\section{Section \recurselevel}Page \recurselevel\page}
\stoptext

Good luck in this year.

Re: [NTG-context] arabtext in Context
I'll take a look at this when I can. Note that some of the "flaws" may actually be features since ArabTeX was largely designed with LaTeX in mind. Some of the internal ArabTeX macros (like verses.sty) use LaTeX commands like \mbox. I modified verses.sty for use in ConTeXt with my own (under heavy development) Arabic package that is already much more versatile (and beautiful;->) than ArabTeX. If u're willing to try out eomega in ConTeXt there is another rudimentary Arabic package already available for ConTeXt that I described to this list a few months back, but it uses a bland font and a different transcription scheme (still worth checking out though). My own package is based on the ArabTeX transcription but is not ready for general release yet. But I'll try to look at your problem towards the end of this month.

Re: [NTG-context] Wrapping around footnotes
Hi William,
I do not know whether I can make you happy ...
I played with the following setup, which gives a comparable result,
though it needs some manual actions:

\startlocalfootnotes[n=0]
text with footnotes\footnote{a tip}

[NTG-context] how to produce an irregular typesetting area
Hallo all, I'm trying to produce an irregular (more than 4 corners) typesetting (main text) area of the following shape: ... (header) _ ( logo /| ... text area ... | overlay background) || || || ...... || || || | |(logo | |/overlay background) | ... text area ... | |___| The reason of this wish is not to overwrite the displayed logos or overlay pictures, which are used to form a common layout for a brochure. Btw., the orientation of the logos / pictures changes from even to odd pages. The measures of the logos / pictures prohibit a solution just by putting them in the header or footer. Does anyone have an idea how to solve this problem?

[NTG-context] Problems with pagenumbering using frontpart/bodyart/...
Hi,
I think that I either found a bug, or am using some commands in an invalid
way. What do you think about the following code:
\setuplayout[location=duplex]
\setuppagenumbering[alternative=doublesided]
\setuppagenumbering[way=bytext,partnumber=no]
\startsectionblockenvironment[frontpart]
\setuppagenumbering[conversion=romannumerals,left={--~},right={~--}]
\stopsectionblockenvironment
\startsectionblockenvironment[bodypart]
% \setuppagenumber[number=1] % *1
\setuppagenumber[number=0]% *2
\stopsectionblockenvironment
\setupsectionblock[frontpart][page=no] % *2
\setupsectionblock[bodypart][page=no] % *2
\setupsectionblock[appendixpart][page=no] % *2
\setuphead[part][placehead=yes,alternative=middle,number=no,ownnumber=no,resetnumber=no]
\definepagebreak
[chapter]
[yes,header,footer,right]
\setuphead
[part,chapter,title]
[page=chapter]
\starttext
\startfrontmatter
\title{abstract}
\completecontent
\page[yes,header,footer,left] % *2
\stopfrontmatter
\startbodymatter
\chapter{Introduction}
\chapter{Algorithms}
\chapter{Discussion}
\stopbodymatter
\startappendices
\chapter{Appendices}
\stopappendices
\stoptext
I want to exclude only unmarked lines and those have a "*1" in their
comment, but not the lines marked with "*2" at the end. Unfortunately then
the empty page between the contents and the chapter introduction is not (as
intended) completely emtpy, but has a page number: "-iv-". To avoid this I
am using (following a tip posted here some months ago, I think) the lines
\setupsectionblock[frontpart][page=no]
\setupsectionblock[bodypart][page=no]
\setupsectionblock[appendixpart][page=no]
Unfortunately, now (and this, I think, is the bug) the last chapter or title
before the end of the frontmatter (in this case the table of contents) does
no longer receive roman page numbers, but already the normal ones (and page
numbering also starts at this chapter, not with the "Introduction"). To
compensate for this I am currently using a workaround (all the lines marked
with "*2" instead the one marked with "*1"), basically avoiding the
described effect by forcing a page break (found using trial and error such
that it works regardless of the length of the table of contents). Can I
somehow get rid of these workarounds, without the otherwise empty pages
being numbered?
Unfortunately, pages 6, 8, 9 still are numbered, although otherwise empty
(and the last two are unnecessary anyway), but I guess the problem is the
same as for the pages between frontmatter and bodypart. (Probably fiddling
with the backmatter and using some forced page breaks could solve those as
well.)

My aim is to introduce a short auto-evaluation test after a theorical course + examples, in an interactive form (no server side storage of the results), in the way of acrotex package.
