placing image on layer is sketchy
Hello, still working on the CD booklet ;-) While trying to include the pictures I have some problems with placing a picture onto a layer: The following code should place the picture into the lower right corner of the upper part and then goes to the left. The part that goes over the page border is for the bleeding. But the result (as seen in the attached pdf) is a sketchy position of the right, bottom corner it looks like the same offset in x and -y direction. Two more observations: - with the "offset=-1mm" in the layerframe configuration there is only an offset in -y direction left (offset=0mm is not enough) - without the frame it works as expected (and so my problem is solved) \setuppapersize[CD][CD,oversized] \setuppagenumbering[location=,state=stop] \setuplayout [location=middle] \showframe[edge] \useexternalfigure[page12][dummy] \definelayer [p12] [width=\paperwidth, height=\paperheight] \setlayerframed [p12] [x=\paperwidth,y=74mm, location={left,top}] [width=124mm,height=77mm, %offset=-1mm, frame=on] {\externalfigure[page12][width=126mm,height=77mm]} %\setlayer [p12] % [x=\paperwidth,y=74mm, % location={left,top}] % {\externalfigure[page12][width=124mm,height=77mm]} \starttext \setupbackgrounds[page][background=p12] \startstandardmakeup \stopstandardmakeup \stoptext

grep for \definelayerpreset using preset is easier preset=lefttop,offset=2mm,x=3mm,y=4mm there's also hoffset and voffset so that you can use offset per layer and per placement x, y, offset are all relative to the corner ----------------------------------------------------------------- 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 -----------------------------------------------------------------
