[NTG-context] Fwd: Migrations: exactly LaTeX margins --> ConTeXt margins

---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Xan xan Date: 2010/8/30 Subject: Re: [NTG-context] Migrations: exactly LaTeX margins --> ConTeXt margins To: Hans Hagen There is a technical explanation in "The Not so Short Introduction to LaTeX" [tobi.oetiker.ch/lshort/lshort.pdf] (page 129) It's too much for me. I supose there are equivalencies in ConTeXt but too bit tech for me. Thanks, Xan. 2010/8/30 Hans Hagen

Hi,

I want to "migrate" one LaTeX document to ConTeXt document. I only want to put the _exact_ margins LaTeX use for \documentclass[12pt,a4paper]{article}.

Anyone could say me the exact values I have to put in **layout**?

You first have to figure out what the exact latex values are. I suppose that they are documented somewhere or can be deduced from the document class (maybe make a list for more popular document classes).

At some point there can be a module doing things like

\definelayout[latex-article][...]
