[NTG-context] Re: conversion from realpage to pagenumber
Thank you Wolfgang,
but my problem is getting back the page of the document starting from a
"realpage" value picked from structures.registers.collected in the .tuc
file.
Anyway, looking at the .tuc file produced by your example, I found that
structures.pages.collected has all the information I need to reconstruct
the printed page number.
Here's an excerpt of the .tuc file:
utilitydata.structures.pages.collected={
{
["block"]="frontpart",
["number"]=1,
["numberdata"]=1,
["prefixdata"]=2,
["state"]="start",
},
{
["block"]="frontpart",
["number"]=2,
["numberdata"]=1,
["prefixdata"]=2,
["state"]="start",
},
...
{
["block"]="bodypart",
["number"]=1,
["numberdata"]=1,
["prefixdata"]=2,
["state"]="start",
},
{
["block"]="bodypart",
["number"]=2,
["numberdata"]=1,
["prefixdata"]=2,
["state"]="start",
},
...
So your answer was not the solution, but it's been the way to the solution.
Thank you again,
Massi

Hello list,
how do I convert the realpage number to a page number?
Suppose you have a document with a frontmatter of 20 pages in roman
numerals, followed by the main text starting from page 1 in arabic
numerals.
So the twelfth page is 'XII', while the twenty-second is '2'.
How do I get 'XII' from 12 and '2' from 22?
\defineconversionset
[frontpart:pagenumber] [] [romannumerals]
\setuppagenumber
[way=byblock]
% Alternative method for "way=byblock" when you have an appendix where
% the pagenumber of the bodypart continues rather than being reset
%
% \startsectionblockenvironment[bodypart]
% \resetuserpagenumber
% \stopsectionblockenvironment
\starttext
\startfrontmatter
\dorecurse{20}{\samplefile{lorem}\page}
\stopfrontmatter
\startbodymatter
\dorecurse{20}{\samplefile{lorem}\page}
\stopbodymatter
\stoptext

How do I get 'XII' from 12 and '2' from 22? try \realpagenumber The right one would be \userpagenumber, but it works only with the current page. The code for registers does that translation -- from an arbitrary realpage of your document to the corresponding user page number, with the right formatting -- but I could not find the code that does that in strc-reg.* source files.
