I would like to start using ConText to create a scientific presentation
poster to be printed in A0 or smaller size
A single sheet of pubblication in which text and figures with captions,
can be framed (i.e. boxed) and putted on the page in row and colum, equally distibuted or not.
A loose layout wish can be the attaced one.
Any hint on where to find an howto guide, a template or a beginner document to start from?
How ConText is suited for this purpose and popular for this goal?
\setuppapersize[A0][oversized]
\setuplayout[location=middle,marking=on]
\setuplayout[page]
\definelayer[page][width=\paperwidth,height=\paperheight]
\starttext
\startbuffer[a] \input ward \stopbuffer
\startbuffer[b] \input ward \stopbuffer
\setlayerframed[page][preset=lefttop,
x=2cm,y=2cm][width=5cm,align=normal]{\getbuffer[a]}
\setlayerframed[page][preset=rightbottom,x=2cm,y=2cm][width=6cm,align=normal]{\getbuffer[b]}\startstandardmakeup\flushlayer[page]\stopstandardmakeup
\stoptext
an other alternative is columnsets (see columns.pdf)
