Re: [NTG-context] Background on the 1st page only, page numbering from the 2nd page

2 May 2012

      Thanks for the code -

- actually, I'm not trying to create a "typical book" title page but just a kind of "cover" page.

But I'll keep your suggestion in mind, I may use it in the future.

Thanks anyway.

Best regards,

Lukas

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
