Hi all,
I would like to make a cover for my document (print mode) like the one
of minstall.pdf or mlabels.pdf.
Anyone could give me some examples please.
\setupcolors[state=start]
\startuseMPgraphic{cover}
    StartPage ;
      fill Page withcolor .5green ;
      path p ; p := unitcircle randomized .1 xsized(PaperWidth-1cm) ;
      fill p shifted -center p shifted center Page  withcolor red ;
    StopPage ;
\stopuseMPgraphic
...
...
\input tufte
\stoptext
an alternative is to use a layer and position text using the layer mechanism
Hans
Thank you so much Hans !
