Hi,

I am using imposition to arrange pages in a "booklet" format, a5 on a4. So after all the pages are printed out (doublesided) I can fold the stack in half to get my booklet.

So I am using the command

texexec --arrange --paperformat=a5a4 --printformat=up test.tex

...which works well.

Now I want to write content to appear on the last page. Here is my test file:

\setuppagenumbering[alternative=doublesided] \starttext \showframe \subject Front Cover

\dorecurse{10}{\input tufte \par}

\page[yes,last]

\page[quadruple,quadruple]

or

\page[8]

Wolfgang, thanks - but this does not seem to fix the problem. The "last page" appears opposite page 3 instead of opposite page 1.

To be clear, I am looking for a way to specify that content is to be placed on the outside of the cover, i.e. printed on the same side of the same sheet as page 1, when "arranged".

\setuppapersize[A5][A4] \setuparranging[2UP,rotated,doublesided] \setuppagenumbering[alternative=doublesided]

\setuplayout[margin=0pt,width=fit] \setupbodyfont[16pt]

\starttext

\dorecurse{11}{\input tufte \par \input knuth \par}

\page[8]

\page[8] is useless in this example because you're already beyound the eight page and the argument is useless in this case. \page[quadruple]

Back Cover

\stoptext

texexec --arrange --paperformat=a5a4 --printformat=up test2.tex

texexec test2 you need --arrange only for documents with a table of content, indices ... Greetings Wolfgang
