Hi Geoff,

Thanks
This problem has been with my version of Contex which is running on windows
XP since I first started maybe 2 years ago and has never bothered me as I
was doing simple jobs. The version is kept up to date and I have in fact
downloaded the base distro again on 14 Dec and updated. I am guessing that
it may be in the parameters given to pdftex which I have just noticed from
googling for something else.
Like Luigi said: there is no problem. This is absolutely how it
is supposed to look. I do not know what you want precisely, but
apparently you are unhappy with the standard ConTeXt page layout.
That is fine, after all, it is only a default. Just play with
\setuplayout until you are happy (try \showlayout if you want to
see all of the currently used parameter values). But there is
definately no bug in your installation.
Best,
Taco
I am happy to test this but I am unsure how
\pdfpagewidth (dimension)
This dimension parameter specifies the page width of the pdf output (the
screen, the paper, etc.). pdfTEX reads this parameter
when it starts shipping out a page. After magnification has been changed by
the \mag primitive, check that this parameter
reflects the wished true page width.
If the value is not given, the page width is calculated as wbox being
shipped out + 2 × (horigin + \hoffset). When part of the page
falls off the paper or screen, you can be rather sure that this
parameter is
set wrong.

Gday
I know there must be a fundamental answer, but I cannot fathom why
everything is shifted left on the page.
hmm, I don't see anything wrong;this is the standard setup.
You can play with
5
\setuppapersize[A4][A3]
\setuplayout[location=middle,marking=on]
\showlayout
\starttext
\input tufte
\stoptext
%%
or
\setuppapersize[A4][A4]
\setuplayout[horoffset=3cm]%%% bang !
\showlayout
\starttext
\input tufte
\stoptext
