[NTG-context] Impostion to make a scroll
I am trying to string 10 pdfs together onto one very wide page so I can print it as a scroll. I've tried using texexec as follows: $texexec --combination=10*1 --pdfcombine infile.pdf but what I get is 10 pdfs at the top of an A4 sheet. How do I make a custom page size 1480mm x 210 mm? I've also tried using a tex file like the following: \definepapersize [scroll][width=1480mm, height=210mm] \setuppapersize[A5][scroll] \setuppaper [topspace=0mm, backspace=0mm, dx=1mm, dy=0mm, nx=1, ny=10, margin=0, width=148mm, height=210mm] \setuplayout [topspace=0mm, backspace=0mm, margin=0mm, width=1480mm, height=210mm, header=0mm, footer=0mm] \setuparranging[XY] \starttext \insertpages [input.pdf] \stoptext I get the right sized pdf sheet, but all the input.pdf pages are stacked on top of one another in a big mess all on the right hand side. Thanks for any help, Arild ___ 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 ___

Re: [NTG-context] impostion
Hi Jan, Hm, looking at your arrangement, I do not quite understand what purpose it serves. Context does contain a list of arrangements which can be useful for most users. However, it we will have to convince Hans, that your scheme is useful also to others. Could you explain what the idea is behind your imposition scheme?
