In the sample code below, I defined the document to be doublesided and that chapters should open on the right. If the chapter ends on an odd page, I want to leave the even page completely blank (no headers, footers, page numbers, etc.). The code below works except for the last chapter in the frontmatter, bodymatter, and backmatter. For the last chapter in those divisions, the page is not blank, but has the header & footers. How do I get definepagebreak to work at the end of a division?
\setupheadertexts[][chapter][Deluxe Header][]
\definepagebreak [ChapterPageBreak] [yes,header,footer,right] % works! except for last page in a division
\setuphead[chapter][ header=empty, footer=empty, number=yes, page=ChapterPageBreak, ]
\setuplayout[location=doublesided] \setuppagenumbering[ location={footer,middle}, alternative=doublesided, option=doublesided, style=\em\tfx, way=bytext, ]
\starttext \startfrontmatter \completecontent \chapter {Introduction} \dorecurse{10}{\input tufte } \chapter {Second Introduction} \dorecurse{10}{\input tufte } \stopfrontmatter \startbodymatter \chapter {First Chapter} \dorecurse{10}{\input tufte } \chapter {Second Chapter} \dorecurse{9}{\input tufte } \chapter {Third Chapter} \dorecurse{8}{\input tufte } \chapter {Fourth Chapter} \dorecurse{10}{\input tufte } \stopbodymatter \startbackmatter \chapter {First Appendix} \dorecurse{10}{\input tufte } \chapter {Second Appendix} \dorecurse{10}{\input tufte } \stopbackmatter \stoptext
You tried to enable doublesided documents with \setuplayout but the option location control the location of your document on the real paper, this option is usefull if you use different sizes your document and paper e.g. \setupapersize[A4][A3].
Thanks Wolfgang for your response. I'm having a little trouble understanding your response, so let me tell you what I think you said. \setuplayout should not be used to enable doublesided documents. Because that option (\setuplayout[location=doublesided] is used to control the location of your document on real paper. Is that correct? If so, then I don't need to use the \setuplayout[location=doublesided] option for the example. Correct?
Doublesided documents are enable with \setuppagenumbering[alternative=doublesided], ConTeXt has also a special settings "alternative={singlesided,doublesided}", this this a normal single sided document with the same margins on every page but you can use the "left" and "right" keys for \page, \setuplayer etc.
So I did the following with the above code: % \setuplayout[location=doublesided] \setuppagenumbering[ location={footer,middle}, alternative=doublesided, option=doublesided, style=\em\tfx, way=bytext, ] What does the "option=doublesided" do? Do I need it? I'm not sure where I found that one. I still have the same problem with the last chapter in a division, the headers and the footers print out. I also tried with/without the "option=doublesided". Bart
