OK, back to work and I could dig deeper into the problem. It turns out
that inserting and filtering pages from a pdf file works fine and most
of imposition works out, too, and I even managed to create some fancy
folding booklets with 1*8 (thanks, Willi, for the lecture you gave at
CM4 on this stuff!), but my 2UP refuses to work.
This works:
\setuppapersize[A5][A4,landscape] %individual page A5 size, print size A4
\setuparranging[2SIDE]
\setuplayout
[backspace=0pt,
topspace=0pt,
width=middle,
height=middle,
location=middle,
header=0pt,
footer=0pt]
\starttext
\filterpages
[maoutput.pdf][1,3,5:22][width=0pt]
\stoptext
This works, too:
\setuppapersize[A5][A3]
\setuparranging[2DOWN]
\setuplayout
[backspace=0pt,
topspace=0pt,
width=middle,
height=middle,
location=middle,
header=0pt,
footer=0pt,
marking=on]
\starttext
\insertpages
[maoutput.pdf][width=0pt]
\stoptext
However, if I switch to 2UP on either (2SIDE or 2DOWN), I get ten
pages of nothing. Or rather, on the latter I get 10 pages of cut marks
as marking is on.
I'm running the newest beta, from December 23. The problem is not
critical (at least not yet), although if I get the A5 -> A4 booklet to
work on ConTeXt, it'll speed up a few processes (and shorten our
printing queues...).
Thanks,
Mari
