how to specify the page background for the first page only and how to start page numbering from the second page?
\defineoverlay[Bkg][\doif{\pagenumber}{1}{\externalfigure[cow]}]
\setupbackgrounds[paper][background=Bkg]
\starttext \noheaderandfooterlines \dorecurse{5}{\input knuth\par} \stoptext
If you want to create a title page (which may not be your intention), why not simply \definemakeup[titlepage][align=middle] \defineoverlay[COW][\externalfigure[cow]] \starttext \setupbackgrounds[page][background=COW] \starttitlepagemakeup A title \stoptitlepagemakeup \setupbackgrounds[page][background=] \setuppagenumbering[alternative=doublesided,way=bytext] \dorecurse{5}{\input knuth\par} \stoptext Question (for Wolfgang): Why did you use "paper" rather than "page" (what is the difference)?
