I just found this old thread as I was searching the archive for this topic: "Page numbering in Adobe Reader" (i.e. roman in the preface and normal/arabic in the mainface) Unfortunately this example (below) only gives no roman numbering... Any more up-to-date info on this topic, somebody?! Steffen Am 16.10.2008 um 19:48 schrieb Zhichu Chen:
Hi Hans and Taco,
Some guy think it's cool to use romannumeral numbers in the preface and so is in the Adobe Reader. I searched the source but apparently it is not provided. I made a very dirty test file so could you make a switch in the \setupinteraction officially?
My test file is like: ============================================== \pdfcompresslevel 0
\setupinteraction [state=start, focus=width, page=yes, openaction=firstpage, click＝no, title=TEST, author=Neals, subtitle=Test, keyword={test}]
\setupcolors [state=start]
\newcount\FrontPageNumbers
\setupsubpagenumber[way=bytext,state=start] \setuppagenumbering[location=]
\startsectionblockenvironment[frontpart] \setupfootertexts[pagenumber] \setuppagenumbering[conversion=romannumerals] \stopsectionblockenvironment
\startsectionblockenvironment[bodypart] \global\FrontPageNumbers=\pagenumber \global\advance\FrontPageNumbers\minusone \setuppagenumber[number=1] \resetsubpagenumber % \setupfootertexts[\the\FrontPageNumbers] \setupfootertexts[pagenumber] \stopsectionblockenvironment
\startsectionblockenvironment[backpart] \resetsubpagenumber \stopsectionblockenvironment
\def\PageLabels{\pdfcatalog{/PageLabels << /Nums [ 0 << /S /r >> \the\FrontPageNumbers << /S /D >> ] >> >>}}
\prependtoks \PageLabels \to \everystoptext
\starttext
\startfrontmatter % \chapter{Table of Contents} \completecontent[interaction=all] \chapter{Preface} \dorecurse{10}{\input zapf\par} % \chapter{Preface} % \dorecurse{10}{\input zapf\par} % \chapter{Preface} % \dorecurse{10}{\input zapf\par} \stopfrontmatter
\startbodymatter \chapter{Test} \dorecurse{15}{\input tufte\par} \chapter{TestAgain} \dorecurse{15}{\input ward\par} \stopbodymatter
\startbackmatter Index maybe. \stopbackmatter
\stoptext ==============================================
A lot of the code to setup the main layout is stolen from Wolfgang :)
