Thank you very much for this. After you mentioned \userpagenumber I was
able to discover its (single) mention in
https://wiki.contextgarden.net/Headers_and_Footers. But perhaps in any
reorganisation of the wiki, this could be more clearly indicated as
applying more specifically to the need to get roman numerals in
\setupheadertexts situations, as my own case demonstrates.
Grateful as always,
Julian

But if I change to \setuppagenumbering[location= ], and choose, for
example:
\setupheadertexts
[ ] [{\getmarking[chapter]\hskip1em \pagenumber}]
[{\pagenumber \hskip1em
\documentvariable{metadata:title}}] [ ]
I get my header texts with page numbers in arabic numerals in
frontmatter. I have tried various \setupheadertexts options, but I
still get arabic numerals in frontmatter. The conversion does not work.
What am I missing or doing wrong?
Try \convertnumber{R}{\pagenumber}
Just use \userpagenumber.
