Dear list,
how can I prevent a blank page in front of title page in MKIV (apart
from the fact that font switching is not working)? In MKII this is
working perfectly fine.
\starttext
\startstandardmakeup
{\switchtobodyfont[50pt]\bf\centerline{Title}}
\vskip 3cm
{\switchtobodyfont[20pt]\centerline{\sl(manual)}} % \sl doesn't work
either
\stopstandardmakeup
Try to avoid \switchtobodyfont if possible.
\startstandardmakeup[align=middle]
{\definedfont[Bold at 50pt]Title}
\blank[3cm]
{\definedfont[Slanted at 20pt](manual)}
\stopstandardmakeup
I don't know what exactly is going on here, but not even
\definedfont[Bold at 50pt] changes the font size. (Yes, I agree that
it's a much better option to use this in comparison to
\switchtobodyfont, I only slightly forgot about this alternative;
thanks; but it doesn't work any better at the moment.)

(It could be something weird with my installation as well.)
