Hello, the printing shop wants me to make the columnsetarea bleeding[1] (3mm). However, the background stops at the edge of the a4paper and doesn't even fill the margin.
Here's a minimal example: % \startminimalexample \setuppapersize[A4][A3] \setuplayout[backspace=2cm,width=middle, offset=0mm, topspace=0cm,height=middle, location=middle, marking=on, grid=yes, ] \setupcolors[state=start] \startuniqueMPgraphic{contrast} fill OverlayBox withcolor white ; fill OverlayBox withcolor transparent(1,.25,red) ; fill OverlayBox withcolor transparent(1,.25,yellow) ; \stopuniqueMPgraphic \defineoverlay[contrast][\useMPgraphic{contrast}] \showframe \starttext \definecolumnset[mycolumnset][n=2] \definecolumnsetarea [einschub][left] [x=1,y=1,nx=4,ny=20,page=2, background=contrast,align={hi,right},state=start] \startcolumnset[mycolumnset] \dorecurse{15}{\input tufte\par} \stopcolumnset \page \showsetups \stoptext % \stopminimalexample Thanks in advance, olli Footnotes: [1] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bleed_(printing) -- Oliver Heins he...@sopos.org http://oliverheins.net/ http://blog.overheins.net/ F27A BA8C 1CFB B905 65A8 http://scriptorium-adp.de/ 2544 0F07 B675 9A00 D827 1024D/9A00D827 2004-09-24 -- gpg --recv-keys 0x9A00D827 Please avoid sending me Word or PowerPoint attachments: http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/no-word-attachments.html ___________________________________________________________________________________ If your question is of interest to others as well, please add an entry to the Wiki! maillist : ntg-context@ntg.nl / http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context webpage : http://www.pragma-ade.nl / http://tex.aanhet.net archive : http://foundry.supelec.fr/projects/contextrev/ wiki : http://contextgarden.net ___________________________________________________________________________________
