Thanks again for your help.

Colleagues

I have been designing a simple document which comprises of 4 areas (3 for text, 1 for images) on an A4 page.  I thought that the best way to do this would be using Layers and so far I come up with the code below after scanning the wiki.  As you can see it is not very sophisticated, but I'm not a regular user of Context.  The question I have is what would be the best way to add text to the various layers?  Some would have quite a lot of text and I was wondering if would be better to define the text for the different layers in some way rather than enter into the braces of \setlayerframed.  The code would look messy this way.  Finally, can layers be positioned within layers or would it be better to use overlays?  I'm thinking about adding three columns to the Footer layer.

A short description about layers and overlays: http://www.ntg.nl/pipermail/ntg-context/2013/070935.html
