Hello Everybody!

 

Can somebody help me please. 

 

I have a Title page: 

 

\starttext

\startalignment[center]

  \blank[2*big]

    {\tfd How to do this in Context}

  \blank[3*medium]

    {\tfa The author}

  \blank[2*medium]

    {\tfa July 26, 2005}

  \blank[3*medium]

\stopalignment

 

Before the Title Page I would like to write a page about the content of the
book. How can I write this? This page should be on the left side, because
the Title page starts on the right page. 

 

Thanks a lot 

 

Uschi

Hello list!

 

I just found out how I can do it. But you can write tips  for me, if you
have some. I have made an extra page before the Title page.  

 

Thanks 

 

Uschi

Dear Uschi,

just use the standard makeup for your titlepage.  It automatically flushes to a right page in a double sided document.  Also, content should *always* start on a right page.  That is to say, your »about the book« text should also go to a right page.

Cheers, Henri
