How do you measure it? If I turn on the grid in Adobe Acrobat and use 6400% zoom, the lines are just there where they are supposed to be. (Unless maybe the bottom line since you have to consider the depth of that line as well.) > Any hints on how to get it even closer? Did you use width=fit and height=fit? They are not automatically applied. Mojca ___ ntg-context mailing list ntg-context@ntg.nl http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context

Thanks for pointing out my folly. I did some more digging in the ConTeXtgarden and came up with the following: \setuplayout[ topspace=1in, % the space at the very top of the page backspace=1.5in, % the space in the left hand side of the page cutspace=1in, % the space on the right hand side of the page bottomspace=1in, footer=0in ] This gets me significantly closer to where I need to be, but the right edge is more at 15/16 than at 1 in and the bottom one more at 17/16. Any hints on how to get it even closer? Joh ___ ntg-context mailing list ntg-context@ntg.nl http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context

Margin as the dimension parameter in \setuplayout is not the distance between text and the border, but the width of "an auxiliary field" on the left and right (chech the command above to see those fields). Does \setuplayout[ backspace=1.5in, width=6in, topspace=1in, height=9in, % or even better: height=middle footer=0in ] work OK for you? (width=middle can adjust the width automatically if backspace equals "forwardspace", but I'm not aware of an option that would calculate the width automatically for different space on left and right; perhaps you can use \dimexpr, but I didn't try it) Mojca ___ ntg-context mailing list ntg-context@ntg.nl http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context
[NTG-context] Margin definition trouble.
Hello, I define my margins like so: % Papersize is 'letter' \setuppapersize[letter][letter] % CIT thesis regulations: 1 in margins, 1.5 in on the binding side % Johannes: no footer \setuplayout[ margin=1in, backspace=1.5in, footer=0in ] but the margins on top, bottom and right differ significantly from 1 in (ca. 1 in 3/16) and on the left from 1.5 in (ca. 1 in 11/16). This is in the printout. Do I have to go adjusting this arbitrarily, printing it and checking manually? Can anybody tell me what I'm doing wrong?
