How to really set the paper margin?
Dear List, The following example results in a pdf that has a wide margin on both sides despite the \setuplayout : \showframe \setuppapersize[A4][A4] \setuplayout[margin=0cm, edge=0cm, margindistance=0cm, edgedistance=0cm] \starttext hello world \stoptext Does anyone know how to really set the paper margin? Thanks! Best, Sylvain
Never mind, there's a 'backspace=0cm' to be set.

Hi Sylvain,

Basically the core parameters are backspace and width, and topspace and
height. Everything else hangs off them.

Hi Sylvain,

I was aware of this page but have mistakenly inferred from the figure that the backspace is an automatically calculated sum of other parameters. Basically the core parameters are backspace and width, and topspace and
height. Everything else hangs off them.
Indeed. Thanks for the information! Sylvain
