[NTG-context] Page layout: doublesided

2010-11-04 Thread Procházka Lukáš Ing . - Pontex s . r . o .

Hello,

although I guess this is one of the really basic tasks, I'm not able to setup 
successfully page layout for double-sided printing.

My idea is to have different free space leftwards and rightwards from the 
text area.

I just want to get different width of the left/right area: 2.5 cm left (for 
binding) and 2 cm right (odd pages); and the same values mirrored for even 
pages.

My code is:

---
\setuplayout[location=doublesided]
%\setuplayout[location=duplex]
%\setuplayout[location=middle]

\starttext
  \showsetups
  \showlayout
  \showgrid

  \dorecurse{1}{\input knuth\par}
\stoptext
---

You can see the result:

1. The left margin is pushed left, so only 2 cm of it is visible (but the margin should 
have 2.5 cm - see listed value of leftmargin).

- And obviously there is 0.5 cm extra space rightwards from the right margin.

Moreover, if any horizontal pushing is present, I'd expect shifting to the 
right to get a bit more space left, so that to allow binding on the left side. (I tried 
the horizontal shift to the left was the same for single- and double-sided setup.)

2. Horizontal pushing (shifting) is the same for even and odd pages.

- I succeeded to remove horizontal pushing by setting the backspace value 
to 3 cm.

But it's strange to me that one has to set this value explicitly, when keeping 
all other values default.

- I'm still not able to provide switching the size of the left/right space 
for even/odd pages.

So how to achieve this?

Btw: Why the dimensions (- \showsetups) are printed 5 times?

Thank you for patience.

Lukas

retourarriere is a litteral translation (to my opinion) and is not
reflecting what the keyword backspace really means. In fact, I find it
quite exotic in a definition of a page layout...

I agree on that one. Maybe we can try some literal translation of the
dutch terms:
backspace - rugwit - blanc de dos?
cutspace - snijwit - blanc de coupure?

Not bad at all, I think.
Maybe blanc de coupe would be a little bit better.

But I'd rather follow, for example:
http://www.alain.les-hurtig.org/varia/empagement.html who uses petit
fond et grand fond. It has the advantage to use a professional
terminology, which is easier to fall back to when discovering the
context system. No?

edges and top/bottom are sort of virtual ... they were originally meant

[NTG-context] page layout

2010-04-02 Thread Sebastien Mengin
Hi,

Say I want to typeset a 10 x 18 cm book and print proofs on a A4 paper.
Margins :
top = 1cm
bottom = 1.5cm
left  right = 1cm

I'd like crop marks to.

My attempts based on the docs fail.

Sorry, but this simple request is not easy to deduce directly from the
beginners doc -- although I translated the chapter about page layout
(sigh...)

Thanks in advance.

 Hi,

 You can also place backgrounds only on left/right pages.

 Ok, I'll investigate that. Is it also with overlay?

Yes, overlays are used to put text, graphics etc. behind the text.

You can use different backgrounds for a left/right page with
\setupbackgrounds[leftpage|rightpage][..,..=..,..]

 Is the content for each topic short enough for one double page or
 is it possible the content on a left page requires more space and
 continues on the next left page?

 The content is short enought because it is for leaflets. So, only
 a front page, thoose two pages and a backpage.

In this case I would take care to spend more time in easy to use
interface with a few macros to write the content.

Hi Antoine,

do you have also questions on beginners level or has

It's hard to say what't the best method in your case is
because more information are needed. The first thing that
came to my mind was to reduce the text area to a narrow
column and place the extra text and the figures and a wide
left margin.

\setuplayout
  [backspace=12.5cm,
   width=6.7cm,
   leftmargin=6.7cm,
   leftmargindistance=4cm,
   topspace=3.4cm,
   header=.5cm,
   headerdistance=2cm,
   height=19.2cm]

%\showframe

\starttext

\inmargin{\raggedright\input ward}\input knuth

\page

\placefigure
  [inleft]
  {Caption}
  {\framed[width=4cm,height=3cm]{}}

\input knuth

Ok, so I was not so wrong. But my main concern is about
the background that has to take the full height and half width.
In addition, if the background may be larger than the page it
would nice in case of printing (so, no margin at all)



\setupcolors[state=start]

\defineoverlay
  [graybar]
  [{\blackrule
  [color=middlegray,
   height=\dimexpr\paperheight+1cm\relax,
   width=\dimexpr\paperwidth/2+1cm]%
\hskip\dimexpr\paperwidth/2+1cm\relax}]

\setupbackgrounds[page][background=graybar]

[rest of the document]

If you want the background on chapter pages etc. it makes sense
to integrate the background in a slightly different way but more
details about the layout needed for this to find the best solution.

Hi,

Thanks for your help. Your solution works but I need more fine tuning on
this background.

 If you want the background on chapter pages etc. it makes sense
 to integrate the background in a slightly different way but more
 details about the layout needed for this to find the best solution.
So, I'll explain in more details the structure of my layout.

The idea is that the pages are presented side-by-side. Visually we
have 4 columns.
- The last one (right, on the right page) is the main text.
- The third column (left, on the right page) is used for the figures (images,
graphs, diagrams, etc.)
- The second column (right, on the left page) is used to discuss some
points of the main text. Like advanced stuff, debate, historical notes, etc)
- The first one (left, on the left page) have some light gray background
and is an area for FAQ about the topic.

The title of each double page is on the right page, aligned with the
left column of the right page.

The second column (right, on the left page) may have a title defining
the topic of this column.

Regards,

Antoine

Is the content for each topic short enough for one double page or
is it possible the content on a left page requires more space and
continues on the next left page?

With the layout described above it also possible to write
a environment where the content is saved and macros/buffer and
placed at the end of the environment, this has the advantage
to know how much space is needed and you're not forced to write
the input in the order they are output on the page.
