hi again, a simplified setup with two A6 and one A5 page on one sheet of A4 paper (no back page in this case) would also be a great starting point ... +----------+----------+ | | | | A6 | | | | | +----------+ A5 + | | | | A6 | | | | | +----------+----------+ please also answer if it's not possible with ConTeXt at all, so i can start looking for other options as soon as possible. any help is appreciated artur On 02/24/2014 08:14 AM, Artur Merke wrote:
hi,
i'm new to the list and also pretty new to ConTeXt (but I used LaTeX for a lot of years), but need a quite complicated page setup right in the beginning:
i have a combination of two A5 pages and four A6 pages and i'd like to put them on one double sided A4 paper sheet (please use monotyped font to see the scheme correctly)
+----------+----------+ | | | | A6 | | | | | +----------+ A5 + | | | | A6 | | | | | +----------+----------+
the same for the back page.
in the end cutting the A4 sheet should let the A5 pages and A6 pages undestroyed :-)
i have tried combining
\setuppaper[nx=2, ny=2, dx=0mm, dy=0mm] \setuparranging[XY]
but didn't get a satisfying result because of different page sizes involved ...
any ideas?
cheers
artur
ps. here my starting point:
\setuppaper[nx=2, ny=2, dx=0mm, dy=0mm] \setuparranging[XY] \showframe[cut=true]
\setuppapersize[A5][A4,landscape] \starttext Page 1. A5 Portrait \page \setuppapersize[A6][A4] Page 2. A5 Portrait \page Page 3. A6 Portrait \page \setuppapersize[A5][A4,landscape] Page 1. backside A5 Portrait \page \setuppapersize[A6][A4] Page 2. backside A5 Portrait \page Page 3. backside A6 Portrait \page \stoptext
