Re: [NTG-context] Page Background
Hello Wolfgang,
>\definelayer[...][...,state=continue,...]
I tried that before I posted my question but that didn't work. See below a
minimal sample.
I am using ConTeXt ver: 2009.10.02 13:14 MKIV and also tried it with ConTeXt
ver: 2009.11.02 21:31 MKIV.
best regards

Re: [NTG-context] Page background color. Does not cover the entire page.
Wow! Thanks for the reply. It is interesting the kind of things when using Context or for that matter any typesetting system. I thought I chose the letter size for my layout and I am printing it on a letter size paper. Also, the PDF shows green everywhere. Hence, getting the color on whole page should be easy. From your responses, it seems it is not possible because of the way printers are designed.

Hi, Curiouslearn, Generally speaking, many printers can't print a page without white spaces about 3mm unless you have a marginless printer. -- Best wishes, Li Yanrui * Gentoo Linux (~x86) * ConTeXt Minimals Beta (2009.04.16 15:20) ___ If your question is of interest to others as well, please add an entry to the Wiki! maillist : ntg-context@ntg.nl / http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context webpage : http://www.pragma-ade.nl / http://tex.aanhet.net archive : https://foundry.supelec.fr/projects/contextrev/ wiki : http://contextgarden.net ___
