Adjust pagenumbering while skipping first page

The following MWE shows pagenumbering starting at the second page with page number 1. With the totalnumberofpages we end up with one page too many. Is there a way to reduce this with 1? \setupfootertexts [title] [\pagenumber{} of \totalnumberofpages] \setcounter [userpage] [0] \setuppagenumbering [location=] \startdocument \setupfooter[state=stop] \startfrontmatter frontpage \stopfrontmatter \setupfooter[state=start] \startbodymatter \dorecurse{10}{\samplefile{lorem}} \stopbodymatter \stopdocument

Hi Jeroen, this might do the work (LMTX only): [\pagenumber{} of \the\numexpr{\totalnumberofpages - 1}] For MkIV, you would need: [\pagenumber{} of \the\numexpr\totalnumberofpages - 1\relax] Just in case it helps, Pablo

Pablo,
Thanks, even though I use LMTX, only this form works:
[\pagenumber{} of \the\numexpr\totalnumberofpages - 1\relax]
Thanks
Jeroen
