Help!

I need to get a book on paper...

Using: ConTeXt  ver: 2007.01.18 12:57 MKII  fmt: 2007.1.19  int: 
english/english

Problem:

By means of veroffset and horoffset the arranged pages should be placed 
in the center of the sheet.
However, depending on the number of pages, the last sheets get typeset 
wronlgy (shifted unexpectedly to the left).


Please try the attached sample file.

Willi

        Overglanzende mooi was Emeralda, schitterend schoon als geen vrouw
in het rijk, geen prinses in andere rijken. Zij was heel groot en
vorstelijk van gestalte; zij liep heel recht en fier en trotsch;
zij wàs heel trotsch, want na den dood van den koning zoû zij
heerschen op den troon van het Rijk van het Verleden.  IJverzuchtig
op al de macht, die haar deel zoû zijn, wees zij af alle de
prinsen, die dongen om hare hand. Zij sprak nooit anders dan om te
bevelen, en alleen voor haar vader boog zij het hoofd. Zij droeg
altijd zwaar brokaat, zilver- of goud-, en bezaaid met gesteente,
en lange mantels van ruischend sindaal met breed hermelijn
omzoomd; een diadeem van de eêlste juweelen flonkerde steeds in
haar rossiggoud haar, en ook haar oogen waren juweel: twee
prachtige groene smaragden, waarin een zwarte karbonkel was de
pupil; en men fluisterde geheimzinnig, dat haar hart was geslepen
uit én enkelen reuzerobijn \unknown
