your snippet produced the expected results with one difference / remaining problem:
On the A3 page, only the left half of the space is used, i.e. the right (additional) half of the sheet is empty. The frames indicate, that the width is to small. Do I have to explicitly extend it by setuplayout or is there a simpler or more correct to achieve it?
Well, my code gives the result you want: A3 landscape, text spanning the complete width (except for left/right margin). Are you using pdfetex as a backend? The exact code snipped I posted? What is your ConTeXt version? I could send you a pdf file with my code snippet.
I have actually looked for a rotate command but I didn't find it. Is it undocumented?
No, it is in the beginners manual and in the quick reference. And also in the source :) and in the very best documentation: the mailing list archive. Patrick
