Thanks for pointing out my folly. I did some more digging in the ConTeXtgarden and came up with the following: \setuplayout[ topspace=1in, % the space at the very top of the page backspace=1.5in, % the space in the left hand side of the page cutspace=1in, % the space on the right hand side of the page bottomspace=1in, footer=0in ] This gets me significantly closer to where I need to be, but the right edge is more at 15/16 than at 1 in and the bottom one more at 17/16. Any hints on how to get it even closer? Joh
