Hello,

I missed to write my code:

\starttext
   \pagefigure[A3.pdf]

   \start
     \setuppapersize[A4,portrait][A3,landscape]
     \setuparranging[2SIDE]
       \pagefigure[A4.pdf]
       \input knuth
   \stop

   \pagefigure[A3.pdf]

   \start
     \setuppapersize[A4,portrait][A3,landscape]
     \setuparranging[2SIDE]
       \pagefigure[A4.pdf]
       \input knuth
   \stop
\stoptext

Any idea what I am doing wrong?

Best regards,

Lukas
