Thanks Wolfgang, it does work now! I didn't now that the counter would be called 'userpage'. It thought I had to set the page-counter (\setconter[page][1]), as I was using
\setuppagenumber[numberconversion=numbers,state=start] and not \setupuserpagenumber[numberconversion=numbers,state=start] It seems as if both commands have the same effect. Are these synonyms? Is there a way for an end-user (like me) to infer from a command as \setuppagenumber that the corresponding counter is called "userpage"? I am just asking so I may get an understanding of how ConTeXt works, and I don't have to bother the list with so many questions. Thanks in advance.
