Re: [NTG-context] cropmarks
The following: ------- \definepapersize [RM] [width=170mm,height=240mm] \setuppapersize [RM] [A4] \setuplayout [marking=on, location=middle] \starttext Bla \stoptext ------- results in 163mm width and 230mm height. What is wrong here?
before or after printing?
The proportions 210/170=1.235 are ok on screen! Printing with ghostscript is ok too. Printing with acrobat is the problem. Obviously this is not a context problem. Soory! Wolfgang

Sorry, I was a bit crpytic before. There is a checkbox in your Acrobat Reader print setup dialog that says "shrink pages to fit" or something similar. Uncheck it, and all will be good. Taco

in addition: there are also options for auto-page size selection, rotation etc, so it makes sense to spent soem time playing with that; if you have transparencies etc you may want to configure flattening Hans ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | fax: 038 477 53 74 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl -----------------------------------------------------------------

acrobat talks with the printer driver and scales down to let the page fit into the printable area; you can disable this in the pribter settings Hans ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | fax: 038 477 53 74 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl -----------------------------------------------------------------
