Thank you, that works, but the publisher decided to use glue binding
to be able to put colored pages everywhere...
Can you explain, what standardmakeup really does? I know it’s used in
free layout pages.
Not sure about your full page problem, though.
I'll open another thread on that.

Re: [NTG-context] full page images on fixed pages
Hi Hraban,
Humble but is it that the page will be entirely covered with a float? In that
case you might better use
the background mechanism so that you can place the float on the paper instead
of the page?

Sounds like they are meaning it ...
Can you explain, what standardmakeup really does? I know it’s used
in free layout pages.
In its natural state (like \startmakeup without arguments), the
makeup 1. nil’s headers and footers, 2. zeroes whitespace
settings (\forgetall), (2.a. disables overfull box warnings,) and
3. sets the text area to the current dimensions \textheight by
\textwidth. The output looks like most layout elements.
However, the personalized makeup environments as defined by
\definemakeup are much more complex. They basically allow to
insert parameterized layout and pagestyle exceptions without
affecting the layout of the surrounding pages. Implicitly, with
the makeup definition, a page layout is created as well, so the
options of \setuplayout work as well. This may be the key to the
solution to your full page issue. The *standardmakeup*
environment belongs to this second group, it is initialized as
(page-mak.mkvi):
\definemakeup
[\v!standard]
[\c!width=\innermakeupwidth,
\c!height=\textheight,
\c!page=\v!right,
\c!doublesided=\v!empty]
If you want to go hack on makeups, you might want to use the
“setups” key to add your code. Of course, for the complete story
you’ll need to look up the definition of \page_makeup_start_yes.
(There’s some very basic info in “Layouts in Context”, pp. 49f,
too.)
Best regards
Philipp

and full-page, i.e.
bleeding 3mm.
What’s the best way to achieve each?
The only way for full-page images that I know of, is via layer/
background, but I find it difficult to activate and deactivate that
at the right pages.
