Hello,
i have a simple (?) layout question. I want to typeset a doublesided text with a larger margin on one side. This margin will be filled with 'margin images' or 'margin remarks'. But sometimes, larger images have to be placed in the text+margin.
Which commands, options or setups are correct, to get the same results on odd and even pages? In the attached pdf file, odd and even pages behave different, using a simple setup (see tex file).
it's dangerous to use dimensions in \setuplayout that get set themselves also, textwidth is for special purposed and special effects, not to be used here (spoils things) \setuppapersize[A4][A4] \setuplayout [width=middle, backspace=.75in, curspace=2.55in, leftmargin=.50in, margindistance=.25in, rightmargin=2.3in] \setuppagenumbering[alternative={singlesided,doublesided}] \starttext The very first page with a small image in the (bigger) margin. \placefigure [inright]{a margin image} {\framed[width=\marginwidth,height=3cm]{image}} \input tufte An now a larger image in the text and margin are \placefigure [here,inright]{a text+margin image} {\framed[width=1.2\textwidth,height=3cm]{image}} \inmargin{Tufte text} \input tufte \page The second page with a small image in the (bigger) margin. \placefigure [inright] {a margin image} {\framed[width=\rightmarginwidth,height=3cm]{image}} \input tufte An now a larger image in the text and margin are \placefigure [here,inright] {a text+margin image} {\framed[width=1.2\textwidth,height=3cm]{image}} \inmargin{Tufte text} \input tufte \page ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | fax: 038 477 53 74 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl -----------------------------------------------------------------
