Still struggling to get a poster with Context. Somehow I am puzzling why almost all my collegue who are accustumed to write with latex+revtex for chem-math-phys journals then turn to powerpoint to produce poster and/or presentation, although "ConTeXt is the layout oriented alternative to the well known LaTeX." and switching tex macro should be easy. I feel there is a lacking in information and/or guide that preclude its use within this comunity.
Anyhow my question: Can I have text within a (settable) margin in \setlayerframe?
\setlayerframed[preset=lefttop][offset=1cm,align=normal]{the content}
Probably not since margin are defined in \setuplayout and having a page layout atop of another one may not make sense....
the best appoach is to typeset the doc and poster indepently, see attached file - poster-0.tex : basic style - poster-1.tex : usage in doc - poster-2.tex : poster building - poster-x.tex : small patch (the few lines patch to page-imp.tex is neeed to make my live easier) one can overload colors in the document itself it's far from perfect but it shows the idea; now, if you (and maybe others) can cook up specs of what you want, i can make a series of s-pos-*.tex files that you can then built upon; a kind of on-line tutorial in style writing; when done, you can write a myway document an article for the maps -) Hans ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | fax: 038 477 53 74 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl -----------------------------------------------------------------
