Thanks for your explanation, but this implies that I know where the page
will break. There's no way to tell context "don't number this first page but
if you feel like it go ahead and number any next page thankyou"?

I found the whitespace and it is was not 4 or 5mm but \lineheight, the problem
was I place the content for the layers in a frame and the strut moved
the symbols
a little bit down by \strutht, I fixed it for the marks and this was
also the problem
for the address field.

I put a new version online and you could test it, the horizontal
position and the
length for the marks are unchanged but you could try different values and report
which of them did work for you.

The distance between the top of the subject line and the topmargin of the
page depends indeed on the height from the reference line and the address
field, the DIN specification is very unclear in this point and what i wanted is
to have always the same distance between the reference line and the subject.

(Could you write me a privat mail, would be a easier to discuss it in german.)

Could you try this before I will change the value.

Have you found that whitespace?

Aren't the foldmarks positioned in absolute values relative to the 
page? There is no whitespace involved, isn't it?
So I don't understand this 5mm offset at all. Are your vertical 
foldmark positions ok?

But the bodyspace depends on the space occupied by the header 
(addresfield, referenceline etc.). Wrong?

6mm should be enough for laserprinters.

I never measured the real values and it should be simple whitespace
problem somewhere in the code.

The address field was wrong placed and I corrected it, the place for the
referenece line should work but I change the position dependen on the
alternative for the layout and the value in the default letterstyle is ignored
at the moment.

Don't what do you mean about the subject, the position is controlled with
the normal page layout.

I could change the values for the foldmarks, I corrected the position
already and it got them at least on my own printer. You could try to
play with \setupletterstyle[topmark,botmark,cutmark][hoffset=...] and
give me a value that did work for your printer.

Re: letter

Hallo Wolfgang,

it seems to me that referenzline, subject, foldmarks, etc, are about 
4mm or 5mm to big (A4 paper). The foldmark for example should be 
105mm from papertop. It is 110mm from top.
The horizontal offset (3.5mm) of foldmarks ist to small. A 
laserprinter often is not able to print 5mm or more from paperedge. 
So the foldmarks are invisibel.

Grusz, Wolfgang

I usually make
$>mktexlsr; luatools --generate
because i like/need  to see
ls-R
database.
Also,
while making modules i have discovered that pdftex is used again -- i
must investigate on this -- .

hm, it could replace mktexlsr if needed; anyhow, in mkiv the kpse lib is 
not used at all, and as such mktexlsr is not used too

in that respect luatools is the replacement for kpsewhich+mktexlsr as

I will correct this, I used \minustwo in the code and the command was
just added in the last release what I used to test the file.


You could add
\newcount\minustwo \minustwo=-2
to the test for the moment.

have you called "luatools --generate" because this is neccesary
for MkIV to let it find new files in your TeX tree.

I have tried

\usemodule[letter]
\usemodule[t-letter]
\usemodule[t][letter]
\input t-letter

all negativ
kpsewhich finds it, as I wrote

I got the error: system : module t-letter not found

there is no letter.tex

(this all is with luatex, MKII with same context finds it.)

Has there something changed in the file finding mechanism since

Hi Wolfgang,

could you try to use \usemodule[t][letter] instead of \usemodule[letter].

You could also try to take a look into your log file and look for letter.tex,
it could be possible this is loaded instead of my module and this will
explain why you get the error message.

Wolfgang

In addition to the other good suggestions, another option is:

   \setupheader[state=empty]

or if you want to move the first page up (looks better too):

   \setupheader[state=high]

May be embracing your letter content
within the \startstandardfrontmatter and
\stopstandardfrontmatter can be of help.

\setuppagenumbering[state=stop]

does the job.

Re: Letter

Thanks! I was wondering about that too although I seem to remember that I
knew how to do it a while back. And if numbering should commence with page
2, where do I re-instate pagenumbering?

Letter

[lcnlmmns]

Dear,

When writing a letter, it is a custom to have the first page without a 
page number.
I have been looking trough the context -manual but did not find how to 
implement
no-page-number.
Any suggestions.
