[NTG-context] \installpagearrangement doublesided stickers

[Willi Egger]

Hello Jigé,

Adapt your layout to the following and it works.

\setuplayout
[%]
margin=0mm,
topspace=0mm,
backspace=1mm,
width=80mm,
height=50mm,
nx=2,
ny=5,
dx=0mm,
dy=0mm,
location=middle,
marking=on,
]

Kind regards
Willi
