Some \definelayout troubles
Hi, I want to set a different layout for even and odd pages; so I use something like: \setuppagenumbering[alternative=doublesided] \definelayout[odd][backspace=4.0cm] \definelayout[even][backspace=2.5cm] This works fine, except I get these extra pages again after \stopstandardmakeup, \stopfrontmatter, and \stopappendices [Note: I applied the following patch to cont-new.tex, Context ver: 2002.10.23 \appendtoks \gdef\shipout{\dowithnextbox{\deadcycles\zerocount}}% \to \everylastshipout ] Any suggestions?

Hans, The following document can be used as test document. If you comment out the line \enablemode[doublesided] you get 5 pages, otherwise 10! Rob \setupoutput[pdftex] \enablemode[doublesided] \setuppapersize[A4][A4] \defineoverlay [Header] [{\framed [width=\overlaywidth,height=\overlayheight, offset=overlay,align=right,frame=off] {\midaligned{-{\pagenumber}-}\\ \blackrule[height=0.05cm,width=15cm,depth=0pt] } }] \setupbackgrounds [state=repeat] \startstandardmakeup {A doublesided document with \ConTeXt} \stopstandardmakeup \setuplayout [backspace=4.0cm] \setupbackgrounds [header][text] [background={Header}] \setuppagenumbering[location=] \doifmode{doublesided} {\setuppagenumbering[alternative=doublesided] \definelayout[odd][backspace=4.0cm] \definelayout[even][backspace=2.5cm]} \startfrontmatter \page[yes,blank,empty] \completecontent \stopfrontmatter \starttext \startbodymatter \chapter[]{Chapter} This document ... \stopbodymatter \startappendices \chapter[]{Appendix} This is appendix ... \stopappendices \stoptext Hans Hagen wrote:

Hans, This was very helpful; though I am left with two issues: 1) What is the correct way to get an empty page right after the title page (standardmakeup); thus without headers and both for doublesided and singlesided? 2) I understand now the origin of the empty pages; it is related to starting at a new (left/right) page. However: at the end of the document an extra page is added to get an even number of pages in the doublesided setup. But this page gets a header and it is also counted in the total number of pages. I prefer to have an empty pages without header, not numbered and not counting in the total number of pages. (I personally think this would be the correct way) How to achieve this?

you can play with:
%\setupsectionblock[frontpart] [page=yes] %\setupsectionblock[bodypart] [page=yes] %\setupsectionblock[appendix] [page=yes] %\setuphead [chapter] [page=yes]
Keep in mind that going to a next page is kind of tricky, since it is related to setting/resetting header/footer texts, backgrounds, so you'd best know where/when to issue such a command
