We still have only a few sample styles, see http://=20 wiki.contextgarden.net/Sample_documents None of them is suitable for a technical book, but I can't imagine =20 some "TechBookStyle" that would suit the needs of a lot of different =20 topics. So as always with ConTeXt, you're on your own regarding design - =20 freedom is always a task. I'd suggest to sketch your layout on paper and then transfer it to =20 ConTeXt. If you need help, look at the wiki or ask here. Gr=FC=DFlis vom Hraban! --- http://www.fiee.net/texnique/ http://contextgarden.net http://www.cacert.org (I'm an assurer)
