Hi,
how can I put a paragraph (or whatever else) on the bottom of a page? I mean I want to have a top of the page empty and the text should start somewhere below. If I try to use \vfill it works just in case I have some text in the top. 

Please can you help me?
Thanks Czenek

Maybe it is not elegant but I use vfill with a ~ before.

Strange, this doesn't work here:
\starttext
~\vfill
\input tufte
\stoptext

Buf I've found 2 other methods. The results are slightly different:

\starttext
\framed[offset=0pt, frame=off, align=low, height=\textheight,
  width=\textwidth]{\input tufte
}
\page
% text is slightly higher that on first page, and last linebreak is
% different, I don't know why...
\hskip0pt\vfill
\input tufte
\stoptext


Cheers, Peter

hello

I was wrong, my linux context version is 2008.5.21 and ~ \vfill works but the windows versions is the same that yours (Peter) and does not work.

I been using this since a long time ago and when it fails in windows, I simply try in linux because sometimes linux and windows context versions doesn't behave identically.

Sometime ago I post a question about a file that aborts in linux but compile fine in windows, I never knew why.

But now is the context version. The question is: Should it work or it shouldn't.

May be a enconding related issue?

Saludos, Horacio
