	My sourcefile is:

	\setupoutput [pdftex]
	\useencoding [win]
	\mainlanguage [de]
	\setuppagenumbering [state=stop]
	\setuplayout[topspace=1cm,
	backspace=1cm,
	header=0cm,
	footer=0cm,
	leftmargin=0cm,
	rightmargin=0cm,
	height=27.7cm,
	width=19cm]
	\defineoverlay [adler] 
	[{\vbox to \overlayheight{\vskip4cm\hskip4cm\externalfigure[adler]
	[width=2.1cm]\vfill}}]
	\setupbackgrounds [page][background=adler]
	\starttext
	Text
	\stoptext

	The adler appears 4cm from the top and 5cm from the left edge.
	If i comment the \setuplayout out, the adler is placed 7cm from the
left edge.

	Lutz
