Hello,
I have printed this document and the page on the back is printed upside down
in fact you have to turn the page to read it.
How to correct this ?
Thank you
Fabrice

Hi Fabrice,

[the command above is the only relevant one, lanscape page orientation.]

If you use a recent version of Acrobat, you may use:

   \setupinteractionscreen[option=landscape]

This will automatically print it in the right way. In that case, you
don’t have to select anything in Acrobat, the program will read it from
the PDF document itself.

If you use another viewer, select flip long edge of the paper.

Just in case it helps,

Pablo

Hi Pablo,
I'm not sure I understand but I'll test tomorrow in high school.
With the file below, using what you offer, will the dimensions of my page
be respected ?

Hi Pablo,
I printed the file at my high school yesterday and the output is not the
one expected. I get a document in portrait format and the mathematical
formulas overflow in the other column.

Re: Page printed upside down

[-- Attachment #1.1: Type: text/plain, Size: 3524 bytes --]

Hi,
With this

\setuppapersize[A4,landscape]
\setupinteractionscreen[option=landscape]

 I get a double-sided page that I can read without having to return the
page on the back. But I wish I could fold the sheet to have a booklet.

The output is:

1 | 2

3 | 4

it would be necessary to have:

3 | 4

1 | 2

Difficult to explain without showing. Is it possible ?

Thank you
Fabrice

Sorry, Fabrice, but I’m afraid that you switched topics.

In your first message
(https://mailman.ntg.nl/pipermail/ntg-context/2017/090051.html), you
were interested in (duplex) printing. My reply answered that question.

In your second message (your reply to my answer), you wanted to know
about a sample document.

Let me explain what went wrong:

First of all, paper orientation is totally different from how the
printer should rotate the paper when printing the document.

My first sample would be printed fine if you have a decent Acrobat
version and a printer that can print on both sides of the paper sheet
automatically (duplex printing).

Your second sample from only needs \setuppapersize[A4, landscape] at the
very beginning. Since it wasn’t added, page orientation is portrait by
default.

[landscape] in \setuppapersize defines the page orientation. Adding it
should change the display in your PDF browser.

[option=landscape] in \setupinteractionscreen won’t change anything in
the display of the document. The info added by this command is only
relevant if and only if the PDF document is printed.

Both commands are independent and related to different features.

If you want to have lanscape page orientation, use \setuppapersize. If
you want double sided printing, you need \setupinteractionscreen.

For PDF print options, you may be interested in
http://wiki.contextgarden.net/PDF_Print_Options.

Let me know whether this is clear now.

Pablo

Hi Fabrice,

for a booklet I would recommend imposition.

1. Generate the document in the standard way (no landscape).

2. Impose it using the following code:

    \setuppapersize [A5][A4,landscape]
    \setupexternalfigures[interaction=all]
    \enabledirectives[references.border]
    \setuparranging [2UP]
    \setuplayout
      [backspace=0pt,
        topspace=0pt,
           width=middle,
          height=middle,
        location=middle,
          header=0pt,
          footer=0pt]
    \setupinteraction[state=start]
    \setupinteractionscreen[option={landscape, fixed, paper}]
    \starttext
    \insertpages[document.pdf][width=0pt]
    \stoptext

A sample for document would be:

    \setupbodyfont[600pt]
    \starttext
    \dorecurse{4}{\startstandardmakeup[style={\bf\ss}, align=center]
        \recurselevel
    \stopstandardmakeup}
    \stoptext

Althought the paper size from the document is A4, imposition handles it
as A5, so it works fine.

BTW, page order in the final booklet is different (you may see it
yourself :-)).

I hope it helps,

Pablo

Hi Pablo,
Sorry for the late response. I did some tests before answering to
understand your explanations.

- With the commands \ setuppapersize [A4, landscape] and \
setupinteractionscreen [option = landscape] and without selecting anything
in Acrobat, I get the desired double-sided document

- With the command \ setupinteractionscreen [option = landscape] and
without selecting anything in Acrobat, I get a document in double-sided
portrait mode but the back side is upside down

- With the command \ setuppapersize [A4, landscape] and without selecting
anything in Acrobat, I get two documents in landscape mode in the same
direction

I think it's clear now, thank you.

I did a try to get a booklet but the result is not correct because the text
or formulas of mathematics are overflowing in the colums

Hi Fabrice,

the basic idea is the paper orientation matches the printing option (if
any).

> portrait mode but the back side is upside down

\setupinteractionscreen[option=portrait] would be the right option here.
It is double-sided (duplex) printing for portrait orientation.

Consider that ConTeXt has \setuppapersize[A4, portrait] as default.

> - With the command \setuppapersize [A4, landscape] and without
> selecting anything in Acrobat, I get two documents in landscape mode in
> the same direction

You got two printed sheets instead of one. To get only one, you need to
specify duplex printing (as explained above). Otherwise, your printer
would print as its default properties specify.

There is even a \setupinteractionscreen[option=page] option, which
enables single-sided (or simplex) printing. This is required for
printers that are configured to print doublesided per default.

I hope it may be clearer after my explanation.

Sorry, but overflowing is normal here, the formula has too many data to
fit in that column width.

I would discourage the use of columns to create the booklet.

My advice would be to compose the standard text and then impose the pages:

\starttext
  \dorecurse{4}{\chapter{Chapter \Romannumerals{\recurselevel}}
  \section{\TeX}\input knuth\par
                \section{Zapf}\input zapf\par
\section{Math}
\startformula
    \startmathalignment[n=2,align={left,left}]
    \NC P_1 + P_2 + \dots + P_{12} \NC = 400 + 400\times 1,05 +
400\times 1,05^2 + \dots + 400 \times 1,05^{11}\NR
    \NC  \NC = 400\times (1 + 1,05 + 1,05^2 + \dots + 1,05^{11})\NR
    \NC  \NC = 400\times \frac{1-1,05^{12}}{1-1,05}\approx 6\,367.\NR
    \stopmathalignment
\stopformula}
\stoptext

And then use the following code with the output PDF document from the
code above:

    \setuppapersize [A5][A4,landscape]
    \setupexternalfigures[interaction=all]
    \enabledirectives[references.border]
    \setuparranging [2UP]
    \setuplayout
      [backspace=0pt,
        topspace=0pt,
           width=middle,
          height=middle,
        location=middle,
          header=0pt,
          footer=0pt]
    \setupinteraction[state=start]
    \setupinteractionscreen[option={landscape, fixed, paper}]
    \starttext
    \insertpages[document.pdf][width=0pt]
    \stoptext

You should get something similar to the attached booklet.

Of course, you may have to increase font size in the original document.
But to know which increase in size the font needs, you have to check it
in the printed version of the final booklet.

With an already released booklet,
https://github.com/ousia/from-pandoc-to-context/blob/master/doc/from-pandoc-to-context_A4.pdf
is the basis to be imposed in the final booklet
https://github.com/ousia/from-pandoc-to-context/blob/master/doc/from-pandoc-to-context_A4-booklet.pdf.

The approach I’m suggesting is simpler and easier to implement.

Just in case it helps,

Pablo

Hi Pablo,
Thank you for the links and for your help. I'm going to look at Metafun for
the vertical line.

Hi Fabrice,

I know that curiosity killed the cat, but why do you need the vertical line?

Hi Pablo,
I like to separate so that students concentrate their reading, but it's my
point of view that is not scientific.
