crop marks

crop marks

[Frans Goddijn]

I must be overlooking some example, since I can't seem to get crop
marks... what I do is this:

\gebruikspecials[tpd]
\stelpapierformaatin[A5][A4]
\stellayoutin[markering=aan]
\starttekst
testing... testing...
\stoptekst

aren't crop marks activated by [markering=aan] ?

Met hartelijke groet!

Thanks Wolfgang and Thomas, that was it.

Now, what if I want crop marks only outside the printed area? As it is 
now, they appear also where the cutting lines cross each other between 
the single "pages". That way they'll end up on either the one or the 
other of the adjacent pages, maybe half a line on both, depending on how 
more or less precise printer and cutting alignments work.

Thanks -- Thomas

Either put a comma after your last assignment marking=on, or move the closing bracket right after this assignment.

You need a "," after "on", otherwise context uses the following spaces 
as part of the value and it sees "on ".

crop marks

[Thomas Fehige]

I wonder how I can get crop marks to work. This is what I have, but they 
don't show:

%=== MWE =====

\definepapersize[Labelpaper][width=95mm,height=90mm]
\setuppapersize[Labelpaper][A4,portrait]

\setuplayout[
	backspace=3mm,
	margin=0mm,
	topspace=3mm,
	header=0mm,
	footer=0mm,
	width=89mm,
	height=84mm,
	nx=2,
	ny=3,
	location=middle,
	marking=on   % according to the wiki,
                      % this should show the crop marks
]

\showframe    % not for the final printing of course

\starttext
~             % Dummy text, I'll work with background layers.
\stoptext
