A5 on A4 - top/left-corner of A5 should be 0,0

A5 on A4 - top/left-corner of A5 should be 0,0

[Jan Heinen]

Hello I have put an A5-page on A4-paper.
And then I put a cow on to the page ... but it should be on 
the top/left-corner of the A5-page instead of the A4-page:
I know, one posibility would be to use x=...  and y=...  in 
\definelayer.
Isn't there an easier way to refer to the A5 instead to the 
A4 so tha x=0mm and y=0mm ist the top/left-corner of the A5?


\setuppapersize [A5][A4]
\setuplayout[marking=on, location=middle]

\definelayer[newlayer]
     [width=\paperwidth, height=\paperheight]
\setupbackgrounds [paper] [background=newlayer,state=start ]%

\starttext

\setlayerframed [newlayer]
    [width=60mm,height=60mm,hoffset=0mm,voffset=0mm]
    [strut=no,offset=overlay,frame=on]
    {\externalfigure[cow][frame=on,width=40mm,height=40mm]}%

Hello world.
\stoptext


Regards
Jannis
