Hi,
I think the following can solve your problem, but I don’t know whether it is
the optimal way to achieve what you are looking for: in any case you can play
with the dimensions used here as an example, in order to find the correct
location.
Best regards: OK
%% begin rotated-text.tex
\define\myrotatedtext{%
\rotate[rotation=90]{%
\scale[width=50mm]{\startcolor[darkred] my rotated text\stopcolor}
}
}
\definelayer[myrotatedlayer]
[width=30mm,
height=100mm,
repeat=yes]
\setlayer[myrotatedlayer]
[x=180mm,y=100mm]
{\myrotatedtext}
\setupbackgrounds[page][background=myrotatedlayer]
\starttext
\input knuth
\stoptext
%% end rotated-text.tex
