This works, but my problem may be self-inflicted by my code for chapter first pages. I want different a different first page format for the introduction, contents and appendices than I have for regular chapters. I suppose that \chapter can be fed parameters other than the chapter name, but can't find them described in the manual. It isn't clear to me if \setuphead can be used for these non-standard "chapters."
you can use context’s document structure environments and change the layout for the chapter pages in the front- and backmatter \startsectionblockenvironment[frontpart] \setuphead[chapter][...] \stopsectionblockenvironment \startsectionblockenvironment[appendix] \setuphead[chapter][...] \stopsectionblockenvironment \starttext \startfrontmatter \chapterIntroduction} \complecontent \stopfrontmatter \startbodymatter % the content \stopbodymatter \startappendices \chapter{A appendix chapter} \stopappendices \stoptext Wolfgang
