Hi all,
please have a look at my example.
\setuppapersize[A5][A4,landscape]
\setuplayout[location=middle]
\setuppagenumbering[alternative=doublesided]
\setuparranging[2SIDE]
\defineoverlay[right][{\scale[width=\textwidth]{right page}}]
\defineoverlay[left] [{\scale[width=\textwidth]{left page}}]
\setupbackgrounds[rightpage][background=right]
\setupbackgrounds[leftpage] [background=left]
\starttext \showframe[text]
\dorecurse{5}{test\page}
\stoptext
Is there a way to push the right pages on the right and the left on the left? I tried to add a blank page at the beginning but then also a second page is added and the problem remains.
I appreciate any help
Andreas

Hi Andreas,
[2SIDE] is an impositioning scheme for singlesided printing only. You can not make a booklet from this. This scheme is intended for e.g. handouts from a screenpresentation. The same applies for [2TOP]
If you want to prepare a booklet you might use [2UP] or [2DOWN]. These two schemes are for double sided printing.
When playing with impositioning it is a good idea to add pagenumbers, so you can see what happens.
e.g.
\starttext
\strut\page
\dorecurse{5}{test~\pagenumber\page}
\stoptext

Hi Willi,
thanks for your reply. But I had no booklet in mind. I prepared a proceeding which will be published (DIN A5 format). In addition I would like to provide a print version with two A5-sites on a A4 site. So [2SIDE] suits my needs pretty well, except the problem with lefft/right. I thought there might be a trick …
Regards
Andreas
