Wolfgang, thanks - but this does not seem to fix the problem. The
"last page" appears opposite page 3 instead of opposite page 1.

To be clear, I am looking for a way to specify that content is to be
placed on the outside of the cover, i.e. printed on the same side of
the same sheet as page 1, when "arranged".


\setuppapersize[A5][A4]
\setuparranging[2UP,rotated,doublesided]
\setuppagenumbering[alternative=doublesided]

\setuplayout[margin=0pt,width=fit]
\setupbodyfont[16pt]

\starttext

\dorecurse{11}{\input tufte \par \input knuth \par}

\page[8]

Back Cover

\stoptext


...

	texexec --arrange --paperformat=a5a4 --printformat=up test2.tex
