[please ignore other one] Dear gang, Ok this is embarrassing, but I can't seen to figure this one out. To solve the current issue I need either 1. a \part, let's define it as \partsuper, that does one thing and ONLY one thing: \starttext \partsuper{Super Part 1} text \partsuper{Super Part 2} text \stoptext So after each partsuper, the pagenumber is reset to one. But the partsuper is not typeset, does not generate anything in the listings, toc, etc etc. In other words, it's completely invisible in the output, except that the pagenumbering in reset. One possibility: In addition to resetting the page no, \partsuper may create document numbers of the form \starttext \partsuper{Super Part 1} text \partsuper{Super Part 2} text \stoptext 2. The other, less sophisticated option: How do I get \setuppagenumbering to simply just reset the current pagenumber to "1" and start from "1" again? Again I can do <my-prefix> for the first range of pagenumbers and <my-other-prefix> for the second. =================== Let me explain the big picture. I have two (rather large) structured documents. I need to a) compile both at the same time to manage cross-references between each; b) have each start at page 1. \setuppagenumbering[number=1] does not seem to work: =========== \starttext \dorecurse{28}{\input knuth\par } \setuppagenumbering[state=stop] \dorecurse{28}{\input knuth\par } \setuppagenumbering[state=start] \dorecurse{28}{\input knuth\par } \setuppagenumbering[number=1] \dorecurse{28}{\input knuth\par } \stoptext =========== For cross references I have defined a mirror for each document structure element. For \chapter in Book One we use \chaptertwo in Book Two etc., so each book has its own TOC that does not interfere with the other etc. =================== With this in mind, I need your help, gang!
