The argument of makeup commands are processed after context switch to the right page and your setting “page=no” comes to late. Make the changes at the begin of the document with \setupmakeup and you don’t get the extra page.

Thanks for your reply. With the following example I still have 4 pages, the front [empty] the back [empty] %%% start example \setuppagenumbering[alternative=doublesided] \setupmakeup[page=no,doublesided=no] \starttext \startstandardmakeup ...the front \stopstandardmakeup \startstandardmakeup ...the back \stopstandardmakeup \stoptext %%% stop example. However, defining a custom makeup works. %%% start working example \setuppagenumbering[alternative=doublesided] \definemakeup[mypage][page=no,doublesided=no] \starttext \startmypagemakeup ...the front \stopmypagemakeup \startmypagemakeup ...the back \stopmypagemakeup \stoptext %%% stop Best wishes. -- Marco

\setupmakeup[standard][…]

This indeed works. Thanks! -- Marco
