Re: [NTG-context] no frontmatter head on recto page

Taco, I found a solution. Instead of trying to adjust what I have in the preamble, I simply went to where I begin the Foreword and included [marking={Foreword}]: \startforeword[marking={Foreword}][author={Author's name}]. And of course, to prevent the first page of Foreword from having the header, I have, in the preamble: \setuphead   [foreword]   [frontpartlabel=foreword,   header=empty,    conversion=empty] where the header=empty prevents that. So, while your proposed solution did not work for my situation, it did work as a stimulus to think the matter through and see what other solutions I could come up with! Thank you.

For some reason that I cannot work out, the recto page header is not appearing in frontmatter sections like Foreword. It is important to note that for this item I am using:

\definehead [foreword] [chapter]… ‘chapter' suppresses the header by default on the first page.

at a guess:

\setuphead[foreword][header=start]

Best wishes, Taco
