Hi, i'm a little bit puzzled by the results of the following test file, using the 3SIDE imposition schema from Willi ( http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Imposition#Additional_schemas ). The results consists in pages 1|2|3 on the recto of the sheet, and pages 4|5|6 on the verso. * Is it really the intended result ? * If so, I don't understand how can \dosetuparrangement{3}{1}{6}{4}{2} give 1|2|3 // 4|5|6 . What's the rationale ? Why no page 5 among the arguments of \dosetuparrangement ? * What if one wants to fold the resulting brochure ? How to adapt the code (besides by try and error) for the resulting arrangement to be 3|6|1 // 2|4|5 ? Thanks in advance, cheers, Nicolas

Yes. This schema is only for paper-saving; as I wrote in the wiki, I wanted to print 3 small planner pages on one A4 page. Sorry, can't help you with the code. Greetlings from Lake Constance!

Hi Wolfgang, well, it seems quite interesting ! Would you allow me to put your code in the Imposition page, or could you consider doing so ? Nevertheless, I couldn't make your code work ; I get: Fatal error: catcode push/pop mismatch. Fix this! \wait= Cheers, Nicolas

Do as you want.
Nevertheless, I couldn't make your code work ; I get:
There was a \unprotect missing at the start of the code, I added it. Wolfgang

The placement of the pages is defined \pusharrangedpageTHREESIDE, the values above mean: • number of columns: 3 • number of rows: 1 • total number of pages: 6 (ConTeXt collects 6 pages and arrange them before they are written to the pdf file but in Willi's code 3 had been enough) • number of crop marks in x direction: 4 (columns + 1) • number of crop mark in y direction: 2 (rows + 1)

The page order in a brochure is 5|6|1 and 2|3|4. Wolfgang
