Margin as the dimension parameter in \setuplayout is not the distance between text and the border, but the width of "an auxiliary field" on the left and right (chech the command above to see those fields).
Thanks for pointing out my folly. I did some more digging in the ConTeXtgarden and came up with the following:
\setuplayout[ topspace=1in, % the space at the very top of the page backspace=1.5in, % the space in the left hand side of the page cutspace=1in, % the space on the right hand side of the page bottomspace=1in, footer=0in ]
This gets me significantly closer to where I need to be, but the right edge is more at 15/16 than at 1 in and the bottom one more at 17/16.
How do you measure it? If I turn on the grid in Adobe Acrobat and use 6400% zoom, the lines are just there where they are supposed to be. (Unless maybe the bottom line since you have to consider the depth of that line as well.)
Any hints on how to get it even closer?
Did you use width=fit and height=fit? They are not automatically applied. Mojca
