Hi All,

I want each chapter to start on an odd number page, and  the preceding page to be totally empty (no header, no footer).

Before the \chapter command, I tried:

\page[odd,blank] ... didn't work. I get the header and footer \page[odd,empty] ... didn't work. I get an extra page (empty) \page[odd,makeup] ... didn't work. I get the same as in the first case

what is the combination I need to use?

See http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Titles#Truly_empty_pagebreak_before_chapters

it didn't work. I get the same "blank" page with header and footer.

Please reply to the list so that others might also help... The following example works for me: \definepagebreak [mychapterpagebreak] [yes,header,footer,right] \setuphead [chapter] [page=mychapterpagebreak] \setuppagenumbering[alternative=doublesided,location={header,margin}] \setupheadertexts[{My special headertext}] \setupfootertexts[This is a text in the footer] \starttext \chapter{testA} \dorecurse{10}{\input tufte } \chapter{testB} \dorecurse{10}{\input tufte } \chapter{testC} \dorecurse{10}{\input tufte } \stoptext

I'll insert a blank page with pdftk.

You should never have to resort to that. Aditya
