I am trying to use a layer to insert a page number in my document, but
the page always displays page number 1. It seems nothing that I have
tried has worked. I also don't know how to exclude the first page
from the total number of pages count. Here is the code I'm trying to
use.
\setupoutput[dvipsone]
\starttext
\definelayer[pagenumber]
\setuplayer
[pagenumber]
[width=\paperwidth,
height=\paperheight,
state=repeat]
\setlayer[pagenumber][preset=lefttop,x=4in,y=5.5in]%
{\framed[width=1.25in,align=middle,offset=none]{\tfx Page
\getnumber[page]~of~\totalnumberofpages}}
\setupbackgrounds
[page]
[background={pagenumber},state=start]
test
\page
test
\page
test
\stoptext
Thanks,
Mike
