Hi John,

Could you try the following page brake method.

\unprotect

\installpagebreakhandler {newquadruple}%
  {\ifdoublesided
     \!!counta\realpageno
     \!!countb\realpageno
     \advance\!!counta 4
     \divide\!!counta 4
     \multiply\!!counta 4
     \advance\!!countb 1
     \advance\!!counta-\!!countb
     \executepagebreakhandler\v!yes
     \dorecurse\!!counta{\executepagebreakhandler\v!empty}%
   \fi}

\protect

>> \setuppapersize[A5][A4]
>> \setuparranging[2UP,rotated,doublesided]
>> \setuppagenumbering[alternative=doublesided]

>> \setuplayout[margin=0pt,width=fit]

\page[newquadruple]
