>> ConTeXt can do simple imposition (arranging pages on sheets, see \setuparranging), but in professional imposition you need to compensate for the paper thickness in folds to keep pages readable - you can move the outer pages of a fold out of the gutter (spine), or move the inner pages to the spine. (This is called creep in English, Bundversatz in German.) That means, your outer margin will have different width, depending on the position of the page in its fold.

Oh yes, thank you!
I knew there was already a solution for the ususal creep, but I couldn’t find it, was expecting a parameter of \setuparranging or the like.
But that doesn’t reduce the line width for shifted pages.
