Try \setupuserpagenumber[numberconversion=romannumerals]

Instead of “romannumerals” you can also use r, R, or, or RK.

If you meant “Arabic” numerals, try n, N, o, or zero.

The problem is that PDF Outline does not show roman numerals. It shows page numbers in arabic numerals. -- Respect, Shiv Shankar Dayal

Did you try a different PDF viewer? The display of the PDF outline probably depends on the viewer.

I used Evince and Okular(I am on Linux) and both work for LaTeX generated pdfs.

Maybe try \enabledirectives[references.bookmarks.preroll] or \setupheads[expansion=yes]

Tried both but they do not work. -- Respect, Shiv Shankar Dayal

Hi, After looking at it a bit more, one solution can be found in the accepted answer to this question: https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/108676/page-numbers-roman-number-and... The following example is slightly adapted from Marco's answer: ``` \usemodule[ipsum] \definesectionblock[roman][romanpages] \definestructureconversionset [roman:pagenumber] [] [romannumerals] \startsectionblockenvironment [bodypart] \setcounter [userpage] [1] \stopsectionblockenvironment \starttext \startstandardmakeup \placecontent \stopstandardmakeup \startromanpages \section{Roman numeral pages} \dorecurse{6}{\ipsum\par} \stopromanpages \startbodymatter \section{Arabic numeral pages} \dorecurse{6}{\ipsum\par} \stopbodymatter \stoptext ``` The page numbers look correct in Okular.

Hi,

I do not know how to do that properly (if someone has a solution, I'd also be interested), but here is something which seems to give a partial solution:

``` \usemodule[ipsum]

\starttext

\placecontent

\section{Section 1}

\dorecurse {6} \ipsum

\pagebreak

\section{Section 2}

\def\romanpage{\convertnumber{romannumerals}{\userpage}} \setupuserpagenumber[ numberconversion=romannumerals, viewerprefix=\romanpage -, ]

\dorecurse {6} \ipsum

\stoptext ```

In section 2, pages are shown with roman numerals in the document and as (roman numerals)-(arabic numerals) in the outline with Okular and Evince. I don't know how to get only the first part, though.

Best regards, Florent

You are most welcome!

It works really well, perhaps you should add it to wiki.

Good idea! I have added it here: https://wiki.contextgarden.net/Command/definesectionblock I have also tentatively added an alternate version which weems to work too as a second example for the \setupuserpagenumber command ( https://wiki.contextgarden.net/Command/setupuserpagenumber ).
