Subject: Re: [NTG-context] Layout with equal margins.

Hi,

Using the 'backspace' key worked for setting up equal margins for my 
downloadable version.

I created a mode for printing where I used the following values:

\setuplayout[

     rightmargin=52pt, leftmargin=52pt,

     backspace=16pt, ...]

Unfortunately the text width is not equal to 312pt as in hte 
downloadable version.

I used these values since I infered that we have:

** left and righ margins on the sides of text,

** backspace which is an additional space in the gutter.

Following the setup I described in the printable version I would get or 
I at least wanted:

52pt outer margins and 68pt inner margins.


Is my reasoning correct or I am missing something?


Thank you for explanation. I keep asking for I want to fix my layout and 
there may be others who may find it useful in the future.
