Hi John,

That was the same for me: \rotated is not defined.
However looking into my ConTeXt archives I found an example about 
rotations, and after a new definition of your paper size discovered 
that the following works: I hope it is what you are looking for...

Best regards: OK

%%% envelope-2.tex
\definepapersize[env][width=9.5in,height=4.25in]

\setuppapersize
   [env,rotated] % this rotates the page
   [env,landscape] % onto a landscaped size

\setuplayout[location=left,width=middle,height=middle]

\showframe
