Hi,
If A5 is 210mm x 148mm (and the internet assures me that it is
<https://papersizes.io/a/a5>), then shouldn't these two setuppapersize
variants give the same result? They don't *seem* to.
%\setuppapersize[A5]
\setuppapersize[height=210mm, width=148mm]
\starttext
\input ward.tex
\stoptext
The reason I ask is because I'd like to prepare a PDF for printing via
IngramSpark, and have discovered that (bizarrely) their Australian branch
doesn't support A5 for colour books. They do offer 6x9 (229x152), and I was
wondering what values to use in 'setuppapersize', so I thought I'd
experiment with the A5 sizing because it's a well known size.
Now I have no idea :-(
Thanks
Kerry

Hi,
try:
\definepapersize[myformat][height=210mm, width=148mm]
\setuppapersize[myformat]
Best wishes,
