I have discovered that \definepagebreak[header,footer] doesn't right with chapters when changing from frontmatter to bodymatter (and similar divisions).

Here you have a sample:

\definepagebreak[firstpagebreak][yes,header,footer,right] \setuphead[chapter][page=firstpagebreak] \setuppagenumbering[alternative=doublesided,location={botton}] \starttext \startfrontmatter \dorecurse{4}{\chapter{front}} \stopfrontmatter \startbodymatter \dorecurse{4}{\chapter{body}} \stopbodymatter \startappendices \dorecurse{4}{\chapter{body}} \stopappendices \startbackmatter \dorecurse{4}{\chapter{body}} \stopbackmatter \stoptext

Pages previous to chapters with no text should also lack header and footer, but in the example above this doesn't work when text divisions (such as front matter, body matter, appendices and back matter) change.

Section blocks do have a page key which is used ti switch to a right page at the begin/end of the environment and this happens before the chapter page break happens. You have to disable the page breaks for the section block to have the right header/footer on empty pages. \setupsectionblock[frontpart][page=] \setupsectionblock[bodypart] [page=] \setupsectionblock[backpart] [page=] Wolfgang
