Hi all,
I have something like this:
\definepapersize[thin][width=210mm,height=74.25mm]
\setuppapersize[thin][A4]
\setuppaper[nx=1,ny=4]
\setuplayout[topspace=1.5cm,backspace=1.5cm,
header=0mm,footer=0mm,
width=middle,height=middle]
\setuparranging[XY]
I'd like to have pages 1, 3, 5, 7 on one side of the A4 sheet, and 2,
4, 6, 8 on the other one. In other words, there should be two
(A4-sized) pages in the pdf. (My use case is a short quiz for my wife's
students - she wants to save paper;).)
Bonus points for making pages 5-8 *identical* to pages 1-4, so that:
on pages 1-2 (top of the A4 sheet, both sides) there is one problem set;
on pages 3-4 (just below the previous one) there is another;
on pages 5-6 (yet below) the first problem set is repeated;
on pages 7-8 (bottom) the second one gets repeated again.
TIA,
--

Hi,
If I understand your request correctly then there is an impositioning scheme for this already in place:
\setuparranging[1*4] %section: one sheet 1 x 4 pages = 4 pages single sided!
This scheme gives 4 pages on a A4.
Kind regards
Willi
