The leaflet is typeset in a landscape orientation on an A6 sheet, and it is going to be printed 8 times on an A3 sheet.
The same leaflet? Then you don't need \setuparranging \setuppapersize [A6,landscape] [A3] \setuppagenumbering [location=] \setupbackgrounds [page] [background=color, backgroundcolor=gray] \setupbodyfont [sans, 58pt] \setuplayout [nx=2, ny=4, marking=on] \starttext \dorecurse{4} {\null\vfill\centerline\recurselevel\vfill\null\page} \stoptext
2. I'd like to get crop marks, in this case short (5mm) lines showing where to cut the sheet, located near the borders, but *within* the printable area.
Since eight A6 pages exactly fit on one A3 page the crop marks can only be *inside* the printable area. That means with marking=on you'll see three marks in the middle of the page. When you also want them to show up at the page borders, you have to fire up MetaPost. Marco
