These are actually synonyms ;-) But it’s true, there is the
difference between counting the real pages (the number of sheets
you need to print the pdf) and the user pages:
·································································
\setuphead[section][page=yes]%% for testing
\setuppagenumber[state=stop]
\starttext
%% synonyms: \lastpage, \lastrealpage, \nofrealpages
last real page: \totalnumberofpages \par
%% synonyms: \nofuserpages, \lastuserpagenumber
last user page: \lastpagenumber\par
%% for sake of completeness
first real page \firstpage \par
\chapter{no counting}
\dorecurse{5}{%
\section{iteration \recurselevel}
\starttable[|l|l|]
\NC counter \NC value \NC\NR
\NC userpageno \NC \realpagenumber \NC\NR
\NC pageno \NC \userpagenumber \NC\NR
\stoptable
}
\setuppagenumber[state=start]
\chapter{counting enabled}
\dorecurse{5}{%
\section{iteration \recurselevel}
\starttable[|l|l|]
\NC counter \NC value \NC\NR
\NC userpageno \NC \realpagenumber \NC\NR
\NC pageno \NC \userpagenumber \NC\NR
\stoptable
}
·································································
There are further counters and synonyms, all defined in
strc-pag.mkiv.
