I didn’t notice your width setting for the makeup environment. What you try to achieve
doesn’t work this way, when you want a narrow and centered are for the text you have
to set wide margins in the layout, e.g.
\definemakeup[custom]
\setuplayout
[custom]
[backspace=6cm,
width=middle]
\showframe
\starttext
\startmakeup [custom]
\input ward
\stopmakeup
\input ward
\stoptext
or you put the text in a centered framed text environment (your still need \setuplayout
to get equal margins for the page), e.g.
\definemakeup[custom]
\setuplayout
[custom]
[width=middle]
\showframe
\starttext
\startmakeup [custom]
\startframedtext[middle][frame=off,width=.5\textwidth]
\input ward
\stopframedtext
\stopmakeup
\input ward
\stoptext
