Hi all,
I would like to make a cover for my document (print mode) like the one
of minstall.pdf or mlabels.pdf.
Anyone could give me some examples please.

\setupcolors[state=start]

\startuseMPgraphic{cover}
   StartPage ;
     fill Page withcolor .5green ;
     path p ; p := unitcircle randomized .1 xsized(PaperWidth-1cm) ;
     fill p shifted -center p shifted center Page  withcolor red ;
   StopPage ;
\stopuseMPgraphic

\defineoverlay[cover][\useMPgraphic{cover}]

\starttext

\setupbackgrounds[page][background=cover]

\startstandardmakeup
  \raggedcenter
  \vfill \definedfont[SerifBold at 48pt]\setstrut \strut Penguins in Vietnam
  \blank[2*big] \definedfont[SerifBold at 24pt]\setstrut \strut A Very Short 
Story
  \vfill
\stopstandardmakeup

\setupbackgrounds[page][background=]

\input tufte

\stoptext

an alternative is to use a layer and position text using the layer mechanism
