Hello, the following example is copied from http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Command/setupfootnotes: ---- \defineconversion[starred][\starredconv] \def\starredconv#1{\ifcase#1\or*\or**\or***\fi} \setupfootnotes[conversion=starred,color=blue,frame=on] \starttext Charles IV\footnote{Best Czech king (14th cent.) and the winner of a \quote{best Czech person} poll.} \it Charles IV\footnote{Best Czech king (14th cent.) and the winner of a \quote{best Czech person} poll.} \tt Charles IV\footnote{Best Czech king (14th cent.) and the winner of a \quote{best Czech person} poll.} \stoptext ---- The problem is that - contrary to wiki - no conversion from numbers to stars is performed. Any fix needed? Or a new calling convention? TIA. Best regards, Lukas -- Ing. Lukáš Procházka [mailto:LPr@pontex.cz] Pontex s. r. o.
