I know, there are workarounds, but I prefer to create A5 pages and then impose them using nice Acrobat plugin. However, I don't know how to make Luatex to process left and right pages differently (for future imposing). If I set "left margin", then it is really left through the document, but I need it to be on the right every second page, and vice versa. How to achieve it?
What is wrong with
\setuppapersize[A5][A5]
\setuppagenumbering[alternative=doublesided]
\starttext
...
\stoptext

\setuppapersize is not meant for doubleside layout

You can also create a second document and impose your booklet in this
document, I can send such a file from me.
