back to Context

[Ciro Soto <ciro@kavyata.com>]

I started a small project of ~100 pages and tried to do it with
Scribus since it required pictures, inserts, etc.
I found that Scribus was not going to be able to handle the task so
easily. So I am back to Context.

Here is my task: in the right pages, I want the text (~50 pages of
text) and in the left pages I would like
a picture and a quotation coming from the right page (this quotation I
am willing to do manually).
My question is, how do I make one \setuplayout for the odd pages, and
another for the even pages?
I may use  pictures that bleed over the upper left corner of the left page.

I used the option \placefigure [opposite], which puts the picture in
the opposite page, very nice. However,
I have two problems with it: it may put the picture in the right page
(opposite to the text in the left page),
and I can't make the picture bleed because my \setuplayout is for both pages.

I can work with what I have done so far, but I wonder if my task is
possible with the current Context macros.

thank you
Ciro
