Re: [NTG-context] \installpagearrangement doublesided stickers

22 Jan 2022

      Hello Jigé,

Adapt your layout to the following and it works.

\setuplayout
[%]
margin=0mm,
topspace=0mm,
backspace=1mm,
width=80mm,
height=50mm,
nx=2,
ny=5,
dx=0mm,
dy=0mm,
location=middle,
marking=on,
]

Kind regards
Willi

Greetings everyone.
Well, it's not exactly about double-sided stickers but sort of. Imagine printing a double-sided sheet and using a so-called plastifying device to make tokens.
I began with the File Card and Labels examples from the wiki, then tried to change the \installpagearrangement example from the 'imposition' wiki page.
My question is:
how to position everything in the middle of the sheet, so that double-siding actually works?
As is, it's all in the top left corner. Changing the location argument for "location=middle" in \setuplayout doesn't work here. What should it be?
By the way, I'm not sure about the 3rd, 4th and 6th arguments in the dosetuparrangement command.
Thanks a lot!
Here it is:
