Cut marks + alignment marks

Cut marks + alignment marks

[Jean-Philippe Rey]

Hello everybody,

I am using the imposition feature of ConTeXt which is very nice.  
\setuplayout[marking=on] allows me to print cut marks, but this  
doesn't produce alignment marks. Is there an option to print, along  
cut marks, traditional alignement marks (hirondelles in French), i.e.  
cross hairs in a circle exactly positioned at the middle of each four  
paper sides.

Thanks for your answers.

Are you looking for something like this? Willi Eggers and I have written a module to support this, but haven't released it yet. If this is what you're looking for, I can send you the file.

Hi Thomas,

I recently bought a used paper cutter and duplex unit for my printer.
Now I'm in need of some nice marks to feed them. 8-)

That's exactly what I'm looking for. I am very interested by your  
module and waiting eagerly for your file :-)

Thank you very much.
