Hi Andrea

hm, what you want is prepare a flyer?

We are going to the ConTeXt meeting in Brejlov, where I will have a talk on this subject. There are more page arrangements in this field which I do hope that they will make it into the distro.

You can add the following at the top of your file: CAVE! this works only with ConTeXt after 04.09.2010:

\unprotect
%FLYER in three parts and 6 pages 22-10-2010
\installpagearrangement TRYPTICHON
  {\dosetuparrangement{3}{1}{3}{4}{2}% X,Y,Total,hcutmarks,vcutmarks
       \pusharrangedpageFLYERSIX\poparrangedpagesAB\relax}

\def\pusharrangedpageFLYERSIX#1% Willi's approach
 {\global\advance\arrangedpageN\plusone
  \reportarrangedpage\arrangedpageN
  \ifcase\arrangedpageN
  \or \handlearrangedpageXandY{#1}020\arrangedpageA %  1  rot,hskip,vskip
  \or \handlearrangedpageXandY{#1}000\arrangedpageB %  2
  \or \handlearrangedpageXandY{#1}010\arrangedpageB %  3
  \or \handlearrangedpageXandY{#1}020\arrangedpageB %  4
  \or \handlearrangedpageXandY{#1}000\arrangedpageA %  5
  \or \handlearrangedpageXandY{#1}010\arrangedpageA %  6
      \poparrangedpages
  \fi}
\protect

If you run a version previous to 04.09.2010:

\unprotect
%Folder in three parts and 6 pages 22-10-2010
\installpagearrangement TRYPTICHON
  {\dosetuparrangement{3}{1}{3}{4}{2}% X,Y,Total,hcutmarks,vcutmarks
       \pusharrangedpageFOLDERSIX\poparrangedpagesAB\relax}

\def\pusharrangedpageFOLDERSIX#1% Willi's approach
 {\doglobal\increment\arrangedpageN
  \reportarrangedpage\arrangedpageN
  \ifcase\arrangedpageN
  \or \handlearrangedpageXandY{#1}020\arrangedpageA %  1  rot,hskip,vskip
  \or \handlearrangedpageXandY{#1}000\arrangedpageB %  2
  \or \handlearrangedpageXandY{#1}010\arrangedpageB %  3
  \or \handlearrangedpageXandY{#1}020\arrangedpageB %  4
  \or \handlearrangedpageXandY{#1}000\arrangedpageA %  5
  \or \handlearrangedpageXandY{#1}010\arrangedpageA %  6
      \poparrangedpages
  \fi}
\protect

I do hope that this is what you want.

Kind regards

Willi

Hi gurus,

can anyone please suggest a way to arrange this pdf:

http://www.fonurgia.unito.it/andrea/stuff/prog.pdf

so that at the end I have two pages A4 landscape with pages 561 and 234?

I'd like to print it on A4 double sided and fold it in 3 parts.

Tried by myself but no way.

Many thanks

Best
