For some reason that I cannot work out, the recto page header is not appearing in frontmatter sections like Foreword. It is important to note that for this item I am using: \definehead [foreword] [chapter]... \setuphead [foreword] [frontpartlabel=foreword, conversion=empty] Then starting this section in the main body with \startforeword...\stopforeword. As 'foreword' is based on chapter, I thought it would all work correctly given that I already have: [{\hfill\getmarking[chapter]\hfill}][] [{\hfill\documentvariable{metadata:title}\hfill}][] And I also have: \setupsectionblock[frontpart][page=yes] in case that is important as well. I am getting the verso page header (the book's title, obviously coming from the \documentvariable{metadata:title}), but not the recto header (in this case 'Foreword'). What am I doing wrong? I tried two solutions to solve the problem, neither worked: 1. In \setuphead I thought perhaps I might need to add placehead=yes, but that did nothing. 2. I also tried [{\hfill\getmarking[chapter, foreword]\hfill}][] in case I needed to add in 'foreword', having defined it as a head. That did nothing either. Any clues as to what I am missing? Julian
