Hi,
I am using imposition to arrange pages in a booklet format, a5 on
a4. So after all the pages are printed out (doublesided) I can fold
the stack in half to get my booklet.
So I am using the command
texexec --arrange --paperformat=a5a4 --printformat=up test.tex
...which works well.
Now I want to write content to appear on the last page. Here is my
test file:
\setuppagenumbering[alternative=doublesided]
\starttext
\showframe
\subject Front Cover
\dorecurse{10}{\input tufte \par}
\page[yes,last]
\page[quadruple,quadruple]
or
\page[8]
\raggedcenter
Back Cover
\stoptext
But this does not do what I want. Back Cover appears on document
page 9, but on page 4 (of 6) of the output pdf. It needs to be on page
1 of the output (i.e. opposite document page 1).
Any suggestions?
Thanks,

Wolfgang, thanks - but this does not seem to fix the problem. The
last page appears opposite page 3 instead of opposite page 1.
To be clear, I am looking for a way to specify that content is to be
placed on the outside of the cover, i.e. printed on the same side of
the same sheet as page 1, when arranged.

\page[8] is useless in this example because you're already beyound

you need --arrange only for documents with a table of content, indices ...

Hi John,
Wolfgang, thanks - but this does not seem to fix the problem. The

Could you try the following page brake method.
\unprotect
\installpagebreakhandler {newquadruple}%
{\ifdoublesided
\!!counta\realpageno
\!!countb\realpageno
\advance\!!counta 4
\divide\!!counta 4
\multiply\!!counta 4
\advance\!!countb 1
\advance\!!counta-\!!countb
\executepagebreakhandler\v!yes
\dorecurse\!!counta{\executepagebreakhandler\v!empty}%
\fi}
\protect
\setuppapersize[A5][A4]
\setuparranging[2UP,rotated,doublesided]
\setuppagenumbering[alternative=doublesided]

Well, this worked, thank you!
I can safely say I would not have found that on my own...
Could I trouble you for a version to take me to the page *before*,
i.e. the inside back cover? I now realise I may need to put content
there too, and if not I can just do another \page to get to the
outside back cover.
Back Cover
\stoptext

OK, but my real document *will* have these - this was just a minimal
example. Originally I wanted to put the arrangment commands outside
the document, but I then put them inside too in case it helped.

You could use modes for a imposed and a normal document.
\startmode[fold]
\setuppapersize[A5][A4]
\setuparranging[2UP,rotated,doublesided]
\stopmode
\startnotmode[fold]
\setuppapersize[A5][A5]
\stopnotmode
and process it with
texexec --arrange --mode=fold mydocument
and
texexec mydocument
