Pablo,
there is no imposing scheme in ConTeXt which can do this. The only way is to cut the A4 in two A5, Use 2Side imposing scheme and print the the A5 paper…
Many thanks for your reply, Willy. Is there no way to add a new \setuparranging? I think it may be useful to others. Cutting paper is not an option for me, since I don’t have a printer. I have to print in copyshops. And A4 is the only option. Pablo

Dear list,
I’m trying to build a booklet from an existing PDF document, my code is the following (copied from the wiki long time ago):
\setuppapersize [A5][A4,landscape] \setuparranging [2UP,doublesided] \setuplayout [backspace=0pt, topspace=0pt, width=middle, height=middle, location=middle, header=0pt, footer=0pt, grid=no, marking=off] \starttext \insertpages[document.pdf][width=0pt] \stoptext
It works perfectly, but I would like to achieve the same effect, only imposing 4 pages on each side of the paper (8 pages per sheet).
Replacing the first two lines with:
\setuppapersize [A6][A4] \setuparranging [2*4]
rearranges all pages, but not the way I want. With the previous option, I have to cut the paper in four.
I would like to avoid this. I would like to cut the A4 in two landscape A5 to be folded (not cut) in two A6 pages.
Which is the way to get this imposition?
Many thanks for your help,
Pablo
