Hi,

I use latex for 5 years daily and I would like to have something
cleaner that what I've now. During thoose years I also approaches
"advanced" stuff like package modification and TeX programming.
So, I'm not really a begin user in TeX but a begin user in context.

Ok, so I was not so wrong. But my main concern is about
the background that has to take the full height and half width.
In addition, if the background may be larger than the page it
would nice in case of printing (so, no margin at all)

Regards,

Antoine C.
