The following code numbers the pages as I desired and the TOC lists those
page numbers. However, it is not doing two things as I desire and would
appreciate it if someone could indicate precisely which lines of code need
to be corrected.
In the front matter, page headers should be on the recto of the TOC (page
vi) and pages 2 and 3 of the introduction. Page headers seem to be operating
correctly in the body of the book.
\placeinitial is not creating drop capitals on the first page of each
chapter in the body of the text.
Example code follows:
%figure on left - chapter number and title on right
\def\MyChapterCommandM#1#2% #1 is number, #2 is text
{\startfiguretext[left]{none}
{\externalfigure[flowers][width=.2\textwidth]}
{\framed[frame=off,align=middle,width=broad]
{\switchtobodyfont[15pt] #1\\\blank[small] #2}}
\stopfiguretext}
%no figure on left - chapter number and title on right
\def\MyFrontMatterCommand#1#2% #1 is number, #2 is text
{\framed[frame=off,align=middle,width=broad]
{\switchtobodyfont[15pt] #1\\\blank[small] #2}}
%eliminate headers on blank page at end of chapter
\definepagebreak[mychapterpagebreak][yes,header,right]
%put pagenumber on bottom of first page of chapter
\definetext[chapter][footer][pagenumber]
