Re: [NTG-context] \setnumber

      Thank you! This works.

But tell me: How do you know this? The manual and the website don’t 
explain it this way…

Best regards

Werner

Hi,
In fact you should use
  \setupuserpagenumber[number=1]
as in the following example:
%%%% begin example
\starttext
\startfrontmatter
\setupuserpagenumber[numberconversion=Romannumerals]
\input knuth.tex
\stopfrontmatter
\startbodymatter
\setupuserpagenumber[numberconversion=numbers]
\setupuserpagenumber[number=1]
\input ward.tex
\stopbodymatter
\stoptext
%%%% end example
Best regards: OK

I don’t unterstand \startfrontmatter, \starbodymatter etc.
I thought, the frontmatter has roman numerals, the bodymatter normal 
and so on. This is not automatically so. Now founf how to make this, 
bus the problem is: I can’t reset the page number. I believed, it 
shoul work like this:
\startfrontmatter
 \setupuserpagenumber[numberconversion=Romannumerals]
 % some stuff
\stopfrontmatter
\startbodymatter
 \setupuserpagenumber[numberconversion=numbers]
 \setnumber[page]{1}
 %some stuff
\stopbodymatter
This doesn’t work, may be because \setnumber is not a command in 
ConTeXt?
Where is my error?
