Alternating left and right margins

Alternating left and right margins

[Vyatcheslav Yatskovsky]

Hello

How to setup the layout where each even page has right and left margins 
swapped (for booklet-like printing)

E.g. if I have 1 cm right margin and 2cm left, second, forth and so on 
pages should have 2 cm right margin and 1cm left.

My current layout is

\setuppapersize [A5][A5]
\setuplayout[topspace=1.5cm, header=0cm, footer=0.7cm, 
bottomspace=0.7cm, height=fit,
   leftmargin=1.5cm, rightmargin=1.5cm, backspace=1.5cm, width=fit]
\showframe

Best,
Vyatcheslav

Thank everybody for indispensible help, esp. Wolfgang. I owe yuo a beer :)

My project should be completed today, so it is probably one of the last 
questions.

I have set up \setupalign[stretch], after which my document looks far 
more justified (no ragged right text edge). However, in some difficult 
situations I still get the problem, as shown on attached shot. Moreover, 
TeX compains about a lot of overfull hboxes. How to instruct TeX to 
relax and allow more spacing between words (or more stretching?)

Best,
Vyatcheslav
