Hi,
I think it is not appropriate to have a smaller left than right margin at a cover page. But my tries to achieve this are not successful.
My relevant expressions:
\setuplayout[header=0mm,location=middle]
\definelayer[bild][x=0mm, y=0mm, width=\paperwidth, height=\paperheight]
\setlayer[bild][]{\externalfigure[cover4a1.pdf][]}
\defineoverlay[cover][{\placelayer[bild]}]
\setupcolors[state=start]
\starttext \setuppagenumbering[alternative=singlesided] \setupnumbering[place=]
\setupbackgrounds[page][background=cover]
\startstandardmakeup[doublesided=no]

Hi Gerhard, you can use \definelayout to define individuell Layouts. Find your solution in one of the following examples. 1. We define a Layout for the first page and switch back to the global Layout after the first page: \definelayout[1][backspace=4cm,width=middle] \showframe \starttext \input knuth \page\setuplayout \input knuth \stoptext 2. The same way in combination with \startstandardmakeup: \definelayout[1][backspace=4cm,width=middle] \showframe \starttext \startstandardmakeup[after=\setuplayout] \input knuth \stopstandardmakeup \input knuth \stoptext 3. We define a Layout for the first page and another one for the second one following pages: \definelayout[1][backspace=4cm,width=middle] \definelayout[2][backspace=3cm,width=14cm] \showframe \starttext \input knuth \page \input knuth \stoptext Wolfgang
