Hans suggested me to use columnsets, but those are spinning as well. \definecolumnset[two][n=2] \starttext \startcolumnset[two] \input tufte \column \placefigure{none} {\rotate[rotation=15]{\externalfigure[dummy][width=.8\textwidth]}} \stopcolumnset \startcolumnset[two] \placefigure{none} {\rotate[rotation=-10]{\externalfigure[dummy][width=.8\textwidth]}} \column \input tufte \stopcolumnset \stoptext Every columnset starts a new page. Maybe I need to try simplecolumns now :) Or well ... \bTABLE ... \eTABLE. One more question: how can I say "please keep this content together" when typsetting in columns on grid? \vbox behaves a bit weird, but most important: it does not align baselines properly.
