-\section{Introduction}
-
-While processing a text \TEX\ makes use of the actual \type
-{\hsize} (width) and \type {\vsize} (height). As soon as
-\type {\vsize} is exceeded \TEX's output routine is
-launched. The output routine deals with the typeset part
---- most of the time this will be a page. It takes care of
-typesetting the headers and footers, the page number, the
-backgrounds and footnotes, tables and figures. This rather
-complex process makes it obvious that the output routine
-actually makes use of more dimensions than \type {\hsize}
-and \type {\vsize}.

-There are a great number of standardized formats like \type {B0}||\type {B9} and \type
-{C0}||\type {C9}. These formats are predefined in\CONTEXT\ as well. You can also use:
-\type {letter}, \type {legal}, \type {folio} and \type
-{executive}, \type {envelope 9}||\type {14}, \type {monarch},
-\type {check}, \type {DL} and \type {CD}.
-Another series of predefined formats comprise the \type{RA} and \type{SRA} types of paper sizes.
-
-A new format can be defined by:
-
-\showsetup{definepapersize}
-
-For example \type{CD} was defined as:
-
-\startexample
-\starttyping
-\definepapersize[CD][width=12cm,height=12cm]
-\stoptyping
-\stopexample
-
-After defining \type{CD} you can type:
-
-\startexample
-\starttyping
-\setuppapersize[CD][A4]
-\stoptyping
-\stopexample
-
-This means that for typesetting \CONTEXT\ will use the
-newly defined size \type {CD}. The resulting, rather small
-page, is positioned on an \type{A4} paper size. This second
-argument is explained in detail later.
-
-\CONTEXT\ can also be used to produce screen documents. For
-that purpose a number of screen formats are available that
-relate to the screen dimensions. You can use:
-\type{S3}||\type{S6}. These generate screens with widths
-varying from 300 to 600 pt and a height of $3/4$ of the
-width.
-
-When one chooses another paper format than \type{A4}, the
-default settings are scaled to fit the new size.
-
-All defined paper sizes can be used either in portrait or landscape orientation. You can tell \CONTEXT\ the orientation of the paper in the \type{\setupapersize} command:
-
-\startexample
-\starttyping
-\setuppapersize[CD][A4,landscape]
-\stoptyping
-\stopexample
-
-\section{Page texts}
-\index{headers}
-\index{footers}
-\index{menus}
-
-Page texts are texts that are placed in the headers,
-footers, margins and edges of the so called pagebody. This
-sentence is for instance typeset in the bodyfont in the
-running text. The fonts of the page texts are set up by
-means of different commands. The values of the parameters
-may be something like \type {style=bold} but
-\type {style=\ss\bf} is also allowed. Setups like
-\type {style=\ssbf} are less obvious because commands like
-\type {\cap} will not behave the way you expect.
-
-Switching to a new font style (\type {\ss}) will cost some
-time. Usually this is no problem but in interactive documents
-where we may use interactive menus with dozens of
-items and related font switches the effect can be
-considerable. In that case a more efficient font switching
-is:
-
-\startexample
-\starttyping
-\setuplayout[style=\ss]
-\stoptyping
-\stopexample
-
-Border texts are setup by its command and the related key.
-For example footers may be set up with the key
-\type {letter}:
-
-\startexample
-\starttyping
-\setupfooter[style=bold]
-\stoptyping
-\stopexample
-

-\section[margins]{Page composition}
-\index{margins}
-\index{layout}
-\index{frames}
-\index{set ups}
-\index{layout}
-\index{topspace}
-\index{backspace}
-\macro{\tex{setuplayout}}
-\macro{\tex{adaptlayout}}
-\macro{\tex{showframe}}
-\macro{\tex{showsetups}}
-\macro{\tex{showlayout}}
-
-In page composition we distinguish the main text area,
-headers and footers, and the margins (top, bottom, right and
-left). The main text flows inside the main text area. When
-defining a layout, one should realize that the header, text
-and footer areas are treated as a whole. Their position on
-the page is determined by the topspace and backspace
-dimensions (see \in {picture} [fig:typesetting area]).

-The header is located on top and the
-footer below of the main text area. Normally, in the header and footer
-page numbers and running titles are placed. The left
-and|/|or right margins are often used for structural
-components like marginal notes and|/|or chapter and section
-numbers. The margins are located in the backspace (along the spine) and in the white space to the right|/|left of the main text area. Their {\getbuffer} width has {\em no} influence on the location
-of the typesetting area on the page.
-
-On the contrary, the height of the header and footer
-influences the height of the text area. When talking about
-the height, we think of the sum of the header, text and footer
-areas. This approach enables you to occasionally hide the header and|/|or footer,
-without introducing inconsistency in the layout.
-
-The dimensions and location of all those areas are set up
-with \type{\setuplayout}.
-
-\startpostponing
-\showsetup{setuplayout}
-\stoppostponing
-
-Setting up the left or right margin has no influence on the
-typesetting area. In paper documents this parameter is only
-of use when keywords or other text are placed in the margin
-(hyphenation).
-
-For paper documents it is sufficient to set up the height,
-header, footer, top space and back space. For electronic
-and screen documents however we need some extra space for
-navigational tools (see \in{chapter}[interaction]). In
-screen documents it is common practice to use backgrounds.
-Therefore it is also possible to set up the space between
-the text area and the header and footer on a page, and
-thereby visually separating those areas.

-
-The width of a text is available as \type{\hsize} and the
-height as \type{\vsize}. To be on the safe side one can
-better use \CONTEXT 's \type{\dimen}||registers \type{\textwidth}
-and \type{\textheight}, \type{\makeupwidth} and
-\type{\makeupheight}.
-
-When we are typesetting in one column of text
-\type{\textwidth} and \type{\makeupwidth} are identical. In
-case of a two columned text the \type{\textwidth} is
-somewhat less than half the \type{makeupwidth}. The
-\type{\textheight} is the \type{\makeupheight} minus the
-height of the header and footer.

-There are also other dimensions available like \type
-{\leftmarginwidth} and \type {\footerheight}, but be aware
-of the fact that you can only use these variables, you can
-not set them up. The width of a figure could for instance be
-specified as \type {width=.9\leftmarginwidth}.
-
-Basically documents are typeset automatically. However,
-in some cases the output would become much better if a line
-would be moved to another page. For these situations you can
-adjust the layout temporarily (just for that page) by
-typing:
-
-\showsetup{adaptlayout}
-
-The use of this command should be avoided inside a text, because after
-altering your document the adjustment could possibly not be necessary
-anymore. So, if you use this command, use it at the top of
-your document. For example:
-
-\startexample
-\starttyping
-\adaptlayout[21,38][height=+.5cm]
-\stoptyping
-\stopexample
-
-The layout of page~21 and~38 will temporarily be 0.5~cm
-higher though the footer will be maintained at the same
-height. The numbers to be specified are the page numbers in the
-output file.
-
-If the layout is disturbed you can reset the layout by:
-
-\startexample
-\starttyping
-\setuplayout[reset]
-\stoptyping
-\stopexample
-
-In some commands you can set up the parameters \type{width}
-and \type{height} with the value \type{fit}. In that case
-the width and height are calculated automatically.
-
-On the next pages we will show a number of \cap{A5} page
-layouts centered on an \cap{A4}. The default setups
-(dimensions) are adequate for standard documents like
-manuals and papers. The setup adjusts automatically to the
-paper size. Note the use of \type{middle} while setting up
-the parameters width and height.

-There are many ways to align text on a page. Look at the
-example below and notice the vertical alignment of the words
-and the white space between the words on the mini pages.
-
-\placefigure{none}{\getbuffer[grid-1]}
-
-The first three alternatives result in an undesired output.
-The fourth alternative will lead to pages with unequal length.
-So we rather make the white space between the lines a little
-stretchable.\footnote{Hey, watch this. A footnote!}
-
-\placefigure{none}{\getbuffer[grid-2]}
-
-\startcolumns
-A stretchable line spacing has the disadvantage that lines of
-two pages or two columns that are displayed close to
-each other, will seldom align. This is very disturbing for a
-reader.\footnote{Here! Another footnote.}
-
-In those situations we prefer to typeset on a grid. The
-means to do this in \TEX\ are very limited but \CONTEXT\ has
-some features to support grid typesetting.\footnote{Finally,
-the last footnote!}
-\stopcolumns
-
-During typesetting on a grid the heads, figures, formulas
-and the running text are set on a fixed line spacing. If a
-typographical component for any reason is not placed on the
-grid one can snap this component to the grid with:
-
-\startbuffer
-\placeongrid{\framed{This is like a snapshot.}}
-\stopbuffer
-
-\startexample
-\typebuffer
-\stopexample
-
-This will result in:
-
-\startreality
-\color[blue]{\getbuffer}
-\stopreality
-
-This mechanism can be influenced with an argument:
-
-\startbuffer
-\placeongrid[bottom]{\framed{Do you like the snapshot?}}
-\stopbuffer
-
-\startexample
-\typebuffer
-\stopexample
-
-Now an empty line will appear below the framed text.
-Other parameters are: \type{top} and \type{both}.
-The last parameter divides the linespace between over and
-below the framed text.
-
-\startbuffer
-\placeongrid[both]{\framed{Now the snapshot looks better.}}
-\stopbuffer
-
-\startreality
-\color[blue]{\getbuffer}
-\stopreality
-
-These examples don't show pretty typesetting. The reason is
-that \type{\framed} has no depth because \TEX\ handles
-spacing before and after a line in a different way than
-text. \CONTEXT\ has a solution to this:
-
-\startbuffer
-\startlinecorrection
-\framed{This is something for hotshots.}
-\stoplinecorrection
-\stopbuffer
-
-\startexample
-\typebuffer
-\stopexample
-
-The command \type{\startlinecorrection} tries to typeset
-the lines as good as possible and takes the use of grid in
-account.
-
-\startreality
-\color[blue]{\getbuffer}
-\stopreality
-
-Because line correction takes care of the grid we have to use
-yet another command to stretch the framed text:
-
-\startnotmode[mkiv]
-\startbuffer
-\moveongrid[both]
-\startlinecorrection
-\framed{Anyhow it is good to know how this works.}
-\stoplinecorrection
-\stopbuffer
-\stopnotmode

-\startmode[mkiv]
-\startbuffer
-\startlinecorrection
-\framed{Anyhow it is good to know how this works.}
-\stoplinecorrection
-\stopbuffer
-\stopmode
-
-\startexample
-\typebuffer
-\stopexample
-
-As you can see this results in somewhat more space:
-
-\startreality
-\color[blue]{\getbuffer}
-\stopreality
-
-For test purposes one can display the grid with the command
-\type{\showgrid}. So grid related commands are:
-

-In \in{figure}[fig:page composition 1] \in{and}[fig:page
-composition 2] we see some alternatives to manipulate the
-page composition by means of \type {\setuppapersize}
-and\type {\setuplayout}. So it is possible to put a page in
-a corner or in the middle of the paper, to copy a page and
-to use cutting marks.
-
-When the parameter paper size is set to \type{landscape}
-width and height are interchanged. This is not the same as
-rotation! Rotation is done by typing \type{90}, \type{180}
-and \type{270} in the first argument of
-\type{\setuppapersize}.
-

-\setuppapersize[A5][A4]
-\setuplayout[location=middle,marking=on]
-\stoptyping
-\stopexample
-
-the front and back side will be placed in the middle of the
-paper. The markings enable you to cut the paper at the
-correct size. If we only want to cut twice, we type:
-
-\starttyping
-\setupppapersize[A5][A4]
-\setuplayout[location=duplex]
-\stoptyping
-
-This has the same meaning as \type{{duplex,left}}. At this
-setup \CONTEXT\ will automatically move front and back side
-to the correct corner. In \in{figure}[fig:cut paper] we show
-both alternatives.

-Simplified we can say that \TEX\ typesets pages. If the typeset material should become a book, then there are two options. Firstly the book will be produced on multiple sheets carrying only one page either on one or on both sides of the sheet. Second option is to produce arrangements of multiple pages per sheet of paper which will be folded into sections, using imposition schemes.
-
-\CONTEXT\ offers tools to achieve both options.

-In the following table an overview is given about all currently available arranging schemes.

-When talking about book-printing the industry produces different kinds of sections, consisting commonly out of 32 or 16 pages. Consider, that sections of 32 pages may be quite thick. At binding if the sections are sewn and the spine is rounded the fore edge can become stepped. This is aesthetically less satisfying. Best results are normally obtained with sections of 16 pages.
-
-For special purposes or in case of special papers also less than 16 pages per section are arranged.
-
-The command to arrange pages with \CONTEXT\ is

-The last two examples (\in{Figure}[fig:2x2] and \in{}[fig:2xx2]) differ only in the fact, that the verso side carries the two pages in reversed order.

-Next to the imposition schemes involving folding \CONTEXT\ offers possibilities to arrange pages in such a way, that after cutting the pile of sheets book blocks can be assembled. The resulting book block consists of loose sheets of paper and will be glued along the spine to prepare e.g. a paperback.
-
-\CONTEXT\ has an arranging scheme for two odd pages above each other and two even pages on the backside of the sheet. In order to build the book block the sheets need to be cut and the the two piles must be merged.

-The following schemes can be used for the preparation of handouts from presentations. They also can be used to assemble book blocks after cutting and merging the piles.
-
-The first scheme arranges 4 pages on the front side of the sheet.
-
-The second scheme puts two pages on the front side of a sheet next to each other.
-
-The third scheme works like the previous one but instead of putting the pages next to each other the pages are placed on top of each other.

-There are a couple of arranging schemes for special purposes. The first one places 8 pages on the recto side of the
-paper. It is intentioned for single sided prints only. The arrangement is made in such a way, that it is possible to fold the paper into a booklet, where while turning the pages now empty pages are shown.

-Last but not least is the X-Y-arrangement of pages.
-This scheme is intended for the placement of a number of pages in sequence on a single sided sheet of paper e.g. on sheets carrying labels or for the placement of other information which must return several times on a sheet.
-
-Before issuing the command \type{\setuparranging[XY]} the xy-arrangement must be setup. For this purpose the command
-\type{\setuppaper[...]} is used.
-
-\showsetup{setuppaper}

-\quote{nx} denominates the number of pages in the x-direction and \quote{ny} determines the number of pages in the y-direction. With \quote{dx} and \quote{dy} the whitespace between the pages in x and y direction can be set.

-There is culprit in arranging pages. If multiple layers of paper are folded, the outermost paper will require more width because it has to turn around the inner paper layers. This effect occurs as well in the spine folds as also in the head folds. How much width is required depends on the number of folds and the thickness of the paper. In professional book printing this effect is accounted for by displacing the pages depending on their position in horizontal and vertical direction. The result is that there will be a perfect look-through registering of all pages. There are no simple rules to indicate the required amount of displacement. Mostly it is a matter of experience to set up the page shift information.
-
-\CONTEXT\ is equipped with a mechanism, which allows to move pages on a sheet apart from each other in horizontal as well as in vertical direction. The mechanism is build on two shift-lists, one for horizontal and one for vertical page shifting. The mechanism works through cycling over the lists which contain a shift amount for each page in a section. For filling in such a shift-list knowledge and understanding the position of a page on the printed sheet is necessary.
-
-In order to use a horizontal shift list this list must be defined and setup.
-
-For a section of 16 pages a horizontal shift list is filled in where for each page the amount of displacement is given. Such a list could look as follows:
-
-\starttyping
-\definepageshift[Hor][horizontal]
- [0.25mm, %1
- -0.25mm, %2
- 0.15mm, %3
- -0.15mm, %4

- 0.15mm, %13
- -0.15mm, %14
- 0.25mm, %15
- -0.25mm] %16
-\stoptyping
-
-For illustration purposes the following list for horizontal page-shift with exaggerated values is used in a Z-folding with 12 pages.
-
-\starttyping
-\definepageshift[Hor][horizontal]
- [1mm, %1

-In a similar fashion also vertical shift lists can be defined.
-

-For each page in a section the shift amount must be indicated. The above presented list has exaggerated values just for making clear what happens:

-The next examples show the cooperation of the commands
-\type{\setuppapersize}, \type{\setuplayout} and
-\type{\setuparranging}.
-
-
-\startexample
-\starttyping
-\setuppapersize [A7][A3,mirrored] %negative creates an out of memory error in Acrobat 8.2.2. on the MAc OSX 10.6.3
-\setuparranging [2*8,rotated,doublesided]

-\stoptyping
-\stopexample
-
-With the above shown preamble you get sections of 16 pages of the size of A7, where both sides of the A3 paper carry 8 pages \type{[2*8]}. For two reasons the A7 pages must be rotated on the paper. First in this imposition scheme there will be 4 A7 pages next to each other so they need to be aligned along the long edge of the A3. Secondly and this is important for book-printing, the grain direction of the paper must be in the direction of the spine i.e. in the height of the A7. Since A3 has its grain direction normally along the short edge it is correct to rotate the A7 pages. Further more there is the \quote{doublesided} directive in the \type{\setuparranging} command. This is to rotate the whole content of the verso side of the A3 paper by 180\Degrees in order to enable automatic double sided printing on the printing machine. \type{\setuppagenumbering} tells \CONTEXT\ to use a doublesided lay-out, resulting in left and right pages.
-
-Yet there is inside the \type{\setuppapersize} command the directive \quote{mirrored}. Using this directive, the content of the A3 paper is mirrored along the long edge of the paper, this results in mirrored typeset text.
-
-\startexample
-\starttyping
-\setuppapersize [A5][A3]
-\setuparranging [2UP,rotated,doublesided]
-\setuppagenumbering [alternative=doublesided]
-\stoptyping
-\stopexample
-
-What this does is placing two A5 pages side by side on a A3 sheet of paper. Both the page and the paper are in portrait orientation. Because A5 fits better on a A3 when the page is rotated the \type{\setuparranging} command carries the \quote{rotated} directive. The resulting sheet of paper will be printed on an automatic double-sided printing machine. Often these machines require, that the verso side of the paper is printed reversed, this is achieved with \quote{doublesided} in the \type{\setuparranging} command.
-
-Instead of using the \quote{rotated} directive in \type{\setuparanging} you can also say:
-
-\startexample
-\starttyping
-\setuppapersize [A7][A3,landscape]
-\setuparranging [2*8,doublesided]
-\setuppagenumbering [alternative=doublesided]
-\stoptyping
-\stopexample
-
-You rotate the A3 paper by means of the \quote{rotated} directive in \type{\setuppapersize}.

-%\ShowArrangementB {co-en-1p} {Arranging: 16.}

-%\ShowArrangementB {co-en-6p} {Arranging: 2UP (2).}
-%\ShowArrangementB {co-en-7p} {Arranging: 2DOWN.}
-
-There is one thing which should be kept in mind when using \type{\setuparranging}: \TEX\ compilations with \CONTEXT\ are most of the time multi-pass runs. If there is a table of content or other lists, this information is stored in auxiliary files or tables in \LUATEX. In order not to loose the content of those lists it is important to run the file first without the \type{\setuparranging} command enabled. If all went well, run the file a single time with the \type{\setuparranging} command enabled.

-
-\startexample
-\typebuffer
-\stopexample
-
-Instead of \type{command} we could have chosen \type{text}.
-We define the logo with \type{command} because it is evident
-that we will use the logo more than once. The example is
-discussed below.
-
-First we define a command that generates a small logo.

-If we want to set this logo at the bottom of every page
-we type:
-
-\startexample
-\typebuffer[b]
-\stopexample
-
-This logo is placed at the bottom of every page. In letters
-however the logos are located on different positions on the
-paper. Again, we define the bigger logo including all
-address information. Watch the use of \type{\framed}.

- [command=\ContextLetterhead]
-\stopbuffer
-
-\getbuffer
-
-\startexample
-\typebuffer

-
-This letterhead logo should appear only on the first page. So
-we simply say:
-
-\startbuffer
-\placelogos[big logo]

-
-You will notice that the smaller logo is not placed at the
-bottom of the page because the command \type {\placelogos}
-typesets only the listed logos and suppresses all other
-logos.
-
-The big logo needs some space on this page so the content of
-the letter should be moved to a somewhat lower location. We
-do this with the command:
