I wrote a short seven page example where you can see both margins
don’t influence the layout because they’re just put on the sides like
attachments.

\definefont[BigFont][Mono*none sa 4]
\starttext
\showframe[page]
\centerbox{\BigFont PAGE}\page
\setuplayout
[backspace=2cm,
cutspace=2cm,
width=middle,
topspace=2cm,
bottomspace=2cm,

Which is a good explanation, and he explains how vertical dimensions work, too. Allow me to add this e-mail to answer another question you will probably have: "What about the marginwidth, margindistance, edgewidth, and edgedistance? Those are also horizontal values!" A good question. The answer is that ‘margin’ means two things: 1. the space between the edge of the textblock and the boundary of the paper 2. a typesetting area inside that space, in which marginal material is typeset. Inside \setuplayout, margin has the second meaning: marginwidth is the width of the margin, and margindistance the distance between the text area and the margin area. There are also the ‘edges’: these are typesetting areas outside the margin areas. Some uses I can think of: colouring the edge of the page in a guidebook with sections; placing informative marks in general; printing a sort of vertical header/footer; etc. This is not a bad reference: http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Layout Cheers, Sietse ___ 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 : http://foundry.supelec.fr/projects/contextrev/ wiki : http://contextgarden.net ___
