Re: [NTG-context] background color, was: CMYK Color profile
When stupidity strikes, no one's safe.
Turns out \setupbackgrounds has an option called backgroundoffset, and
this is the solution. The not colorized part was the bleed part of the
document, so the background command would be:
\setupbackgrounds
[paper]
[
background=color,
backgroundcolor=blue,
backgroundoffset=\measured{bleed}
]
wonder if this would be handy in the DIN lang folder template in the
wiki, as most such brochures will supposingly have a colored
background...?

Re: [NTG-context] background color, was: CMYK Color profile
Hi Jan,
yes, I've read these texts once and they played a role in thinking about
getting into ConTEXt.
Thank you for your answer, now I have something to investigate.
Another follow up question on background colors:
I try to setup the background color by
\setupbackgrounds[page][backgroundcolor=blue]
This works for the actual flyer, but the bleed remains white.
I also tried replacing 'page' with 'paper', but then the whole document has
white background...
I saw your Hostsharing flyers do also have colors/graphics reaching the edge of
the flyer, so I figure you ran into the same problem once.
Thanks a lot
De Benny

[NTG-context] CMYK Color profile
Hello everyone, I'm about creating a DIN Lang Folder brochure with ConTEXt. I got everything set up the way I'd like it to. Now that I'm done with the work, I've been told the output pdf should have a CMYK Color profile embedded for the on demand printing service to be able to deal with the file... I am unsure what steps I have to take to make my output pdf compliant with CMYK. I don't even know how I could verify it does indeed have CMYK. Evince doesn't seem to show that info...

[NTG-context] DIN lang folder with crop marks
Hallo,
I'm new to ConTeXt and am crazy enough to start with something
nonstandard.
Of course I got stuck pretty fast. I started out with this:
https://wiki.contextgarden.net/DIN_lang_folder
and then found some info on crop marks here:
https://wiki.contextgarden.net/PaperSetup#Crop_marks
I tried different options (marked=on, market=colour, marked=color...,
something with \setuplayout[location={middle,middle}]...)
Some times the crop marks don't show at all, sometimes they are set off
a bit so they don't fit with the actual document.
I added the whole file as I really do not knwo (yet) how to reduce
things...
Thanks for any help
