I had to try it out on paper, but it turns out I had understood the text correctly: the same idea, but only two cuts. Top row, left to right: 1,2,3 Middle row, left to right: 6, 5, 4, all upside down Bottom row, left to right: 7, 8, 9 Cuts 1-2/6-5 and 5-4/8-9. The cut paper is like letter S (or a snake or meander, whatever you wish to call it). When folded, the back page remains blank because it is from the underside of the paper due to the odd number of pages - not necessarily a bad thing. I can always slap a copyright sticker or signature on that back cover... For trial I took an A4 and cut off the bottom to make it square that makes quite nice 7x7 cm pages. Not handy for continuous text, but for short poems/thoughts or graphics/art it work out. I need to play around a bit, but then I can post the results in my blog. :-) Thank you, Mari ___________________________________________________________________________________ If your question is of interest to others as well, please add an entry to the Wiki! maillist : ntg-context@ntg.nl / http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context webpage : http://www.pragma-ade.nl / http://tex.aanhet.net archive : http://foundry.supelec.fr/projects/contextrev/ wiki : http://contextgarden.net ___________________________________________________________________________________
