Hi,
I was curious about the possibility of handling general formatting settings (e.g., page layout, headers and footers, page numbering, alignment, default body font assignment, etc.) conditionally for front, body, and back matter using modes. [...]
Hi Joey, the command is just different: \startsectionblockenvironment[frontpart] \setupbodyfont[modern] \stopsectionblockenvironment \startsectionblockenvironment[bodypart] \setupbodyfont[pagella] \stopsectionblockenvironment \startsectionblockenvironment[backpart] \setupbodyfont[termes] \stopsectionblockenvironment \startsectionblockenvironment[appendix] \setupbodyfont[helvetica] \stopsectionblockenvironment \starttext \startfrontmatter \input knuth\par \stopfrontmatter \startbodymatter \input knuth\par \stopbodymatter \startbackmatter \input knuth\par \stopbackmatter \startappendices \input knuth\par \stopappendices \stoptext I hope it helps, Pablo -- http://www.ousia.tk
