Hello:
I'm composing an A5 booklet printed on an A4 paper using the 2UP
imposition schema. I believe, in such case, margins should be
controlled using 'backspace' and 'cutspace' options of the \setuplayout
command, but I'm afraid I don't quite understand how to use those
properl. I want to
Hello,
I want to have text in two columns and use inmargin. But in margin allways
put objects to left margin. I want in left column place objects to left
margin and in right column to place objects to right margin. It is possible
in ConTEXT somehow?

Hi
I'm typesetting a document to be printed in book format. For this
purpose I need the left margin of an odd numbered page to be larger
than the right margin, and the right margin of an even numbered page
to be larger than the left margin.
However, the standard behaviour seems to be the opposite.
Dear Mojka,

OK, a cheap and dirty workaround: define a blank label at a location
outside the bounds of your actual picture, and MetaPost does the
needful. Inelegant, bu

Deat ConTeXt users,
I am making a presentation with ConTeXt, with numerous MetaPost
figures. Now, the only problem is that my white MetaPost figures don't
blend well with the dark background of the screen. This isn't too good
since the text labels in my figure's edges appear too close to the
edge.
Hi Gerhard,
I do not know whtherr I understand your problem correctly. However,
if you want total control of the typesetting area on your paper one
should use more options in the settuplayout command. Think about
topspace, backspace, margins, margindistance, which all do have a

Hi,
I think it is not appropriate to have a smaller left than right margin
at a cover page. But my tries to achieve this are not successful.
My relevant expressions:
\setuplayout[header=0mm,location=middle]
\definelayer[bild][x=0mm, y=0mm, width=\paperwidth,
height=\paperheight]
\setlayer[bil
