As usually, not a direct answer...
Play with these script %% %% save it as test.tex %% \setupcolors[state=start] \starttext \dorecurse{660}% {\startTEXpage[width=3cm,height=2cm] \vbox to \vsize{\vss \hbox to
\hsize{\hss\framed[width=2cm,align={middle,lohi},background=color,backgroundcolor=green]{p.\tfd\recurselevel}\hss}
\vss} \stopTEXpage} \stoptext
%% %% save as my-imp.tex %% %% \setuplayout here \starttext \centerline{% \externalfigure[test][page=1] \externalfigure[test][page=3] \externalfigure[test][page=5] \externalfigure[test][page=7] \externalfigure[test][page=9] \externalfigure[test][page=11] } \blank[1cm] \centerline{% \externalfigure[test][page=2] \externalfigure[test][page=4] \externalfigure[test][page=6] \externalfigure[test][page=8] \externalfigure[test][page=10] \externalfigure[test][page=12] } \stoptext
(you can create my-imp.tex by a script and choosing the appropriate number for page=...., also use \setuplayout etc..)
Also look for \setuparranging.
