Trying to put 2 pages in A5 format besides one another on an A4 page like this:

----------------------
|         |          |
|         |          |
|         |          |
|    1    |      2   |
|         |          |
|         |          |
----------------------

but using:

\setuppapersize[A5][A4,landscape]
\setuparranging[2UP]

I get this instead:

----------------------  ----------------------
|         |          |  |         |          |
|         |          |  |         |          |
|         |          |  |         |          |
|         |     1    |  |    2    |          |
|         |          |  |         |          |
|         |          |  |         |          |
|         |          |  |         |          |
----------------------  ----------------------

What I am doing wrong?

Hi,

Maybe you need to say also:

	\setuppagenumbering[alternative={singlesided,doublesided}]

or just
	\setuppagenumbering[alternative={singlesided}]

Hi again,

Sorry I didn’t notice that you used

	\setuparranging[2UP] 

Actually what you want to do may be:

%%%% begin arranging-up-or-side.tex
\setuppapersize[A5][A4,landscape]
\setuplayout[location=middle]
\setuparranging[2SIDE]
%\setuparranging[2UP]  <—— Compare with the above
\setuppagenumbering[alternative={singlesided,doublesided}]

\starttext
\dorecurse{20}{\input knuth\par}
\stoptext
%%%% begin arranging-up-or-side.tex

Neither of these suggestions makes any difference. Not the solution therefore.

That is it! The difference between 2UP and 2SIDE had escaped me. Thanks.

Re: Arranging pages

[Willi Egger]

What you can do is e.g. the following:

\definepapersize[Card][width=14.85cm,height=21cm]
\setuppapersize[Card][A4,landscape]

\setuplayout
    [topspace=1cm,
    backspace=1cm,
    margin=0pt,
    header=0pt,
    footer=0pt,
    height=19cm,
    width=12.5cm]

\setuppaper[nx=2,ny=1]
\setuparranging[XY]

\starttext
    Contents of A
    Contents of B
\stoptext

Arranging pages

[Renaud AUBIN]

[-- Attachment #1.1: Type: text/plain, Size: 755 bytes --]

Hi all,

I'm working on my wedding's "Menu" with ConTeXt (I have started ConTeXt
and metafun when making my wedding invitations ;) and already succeed to
produce nice booklets)
Considering two pages A and B, I would obtain:
AB on the same page
with setuparranging I obtain
0A
B0
with 0 an empty page
I have "succeeded" (is it really a success !!!) to obtain
00
AB
using \page[even] and \page[yes]
(I have to precise here that we would not to print a "booklet" for
practical reasons)
It's ok if I use --pages=2

but

I feel frustating because I feel that it could be really simple to do
what I wanted, i.e.:
AB !!!!!!!

I know that it could be done with overlay but I assume that there is a
much simplier solution to this simple problem...

Cheers

Renaud

Not really.
I'm rather satisfied with two consecutive "filius" pages on an A4 landscape 
(instead of 3); some pages more don't matter with my address book. (And I 
learned to tell texexec "--arrange" to get better results.)

But I found no way for three pages side by side nor simple double pages for 
the book (starting with a single right page).

Hallo Hraban,

have you solved the problem yet? I have a similar problem in that I want four A4
landscape pages in a two by two arrangement on an A2 sheet. No twisting, no turning.

hm, what you can do is the following:

generate the normal document,

make a second file

(try texexec --pdfcombine --comb[2*2] somefile.pdf and look into the 
resulting texexec.tex)

then, define the proofing papersize you want and combine the first file in 
the arrangement you want on that papersize

at the bottom of page-imp.tex you can find commands defined like copypages 
and so, so you can virtually do anothing you want

so, instead of arranging, use copypages/selectpages/etc.

2SIDE is perfectly what I wanted for my planner, if it were "3SIDE".
And also for my book, if it could begin with a single odd page.

Verbose:
I need no *imposition* (this time), but a rather simple "doubleside printing" 
arrangement for the correction of the book (it's rather important to see the 
layout of a doublepage together); the first and last page must stand alone.

The other task (for my "filius" planner aka "my brain" ;-) is three 
consecutive portrait pages on one landscape sheet, as
\definepapersize	[filius][width=92mm, height=172mm]
\setuppapersize		[filius][A4,landscape]
\setuparranging		[3SIDE] % doesn't exist

Ok, so be it.
But I'd like consecutive pages on one sheet.
Is there an other solution for my task?

Thank you!
I didn't remember that nx, ny options (and was too blind to find it in the 
docs).

But something's wrong: I get every "small" page "nx" times, that is, on every 
"big" page are nx identical pages.

Hi Hraban,

You can define your own page size first. Then you can place pages in a grid
with setuplayout:
Maybe, that you will have to fiddel withe the margins, headerspace etc.

\definepapersize[Mypaper][width=5.5cm,height=8.5cm]
\setuppapersize[Mypaper][A4,landscape]
\setuplayout[nx=3,ny=1, marking=off]

Hope this will give you the desired result

arranging pages

[Henning Hraban Ramm]

Ahoi!

How must I setup arranging to get two or three pages simply consecutive side 
by side, not arranged for folding?

I'd like to print doublesides of a book side by side for correction (saving 
some paper).
Similar would fit three pages for my "filius" planner on an A4. (I managed to 
get a nice ConTeXt output from my MySQL address database with an ugly 
tinkerwork of SQL, Shellscript and SED...)
