I added these lines to my macros.tex file which gets read first: \setuppagenumbering[alternative=doublesided] \setupmakeup[standard][page=yes, doublesided=no] Then to preserve the blank page after my half title (where I really want it) I changed my master file to read as follows: \input macros.tex \starttext \startfrontmatter \input variables.tex \input half.tex \startstandardmakeup %new \null %new \stopstandardmakeup %new \input title.tex \input copy.tex %\input ded.tex \stopfrontmatter \startbodymatter %\input body.tex \stopbodymatter \stoptext Lines 6-8 in the above file give me a blank page. This will now be my standard master file. I hope that the next revision of the manual will include this fix. ___________________________________________________________________________________ > If your question is of interest to others as > well, please add an entry to the Wiki! > > maillist : ntg-context@ntg.nl / > http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context > webpage : http://www.pragma-ade.nl / > http://tex.aanhet.net archive : > http://foundry.supelec.fr/projects/contextrev/ > wiki : http://contextgarden.net > ___________________________________________________________________________________ -- John Culleton Wexford Press Free list of books for self-publishers: http://wexfordpress.net/shortlist.html PDF e-book: "Create Book Covers with Scribus" available at http://www.booklocker.com/books/4055.html ___________________________________________________________________________________ If your question is of interest to others as well, please add an entry to the Wiki! maillist : ntg-context@ntg.nl / http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context webpage : http://www.pragma-ade.nl / http://tex.aanhet.net archive : http://foundry.supelec.fr/projects/contextrev/ wiki : http://contextgarden.net ___________________________________________________________________________________
