Dear Uschi,

just use the standard makeup for your titlepage.  It automatically flushes to a 
right page in a double sided document.  Also, content should *always* start on 
a right page.  That is to say, your »about the book« text should also go to a 
right page.

Cheers, Henri

Re: [NTG-context] I want to write a page which tells what the book is about

2016-09-09 Thread Ursula Hermann
Hello list!

 

I just found out how I can do it. But you can write tips  for me, if you
have some. I have made an extra page before the Title page.  

 

Thanks 

 

Uschi

Hello Everybody!

 

Can somebody help me please. 

 

I have a Title page: 

 

\starttext

\startalignment[center]

  \blank[2*big]

{\tfd How to do this in Context}

  \blank[3*medium]

{\tfa The author}

  \blank[2*medium]

Before the Title Page I would like to write a page about the content of the
book. How can I write this? This page should be on the left side, because
the Title page starts on the right page. 

 

Thanks a lot 

 

Uschi
