Thanks, Wolfgang. \resetpageumber is the key. I will use the section blocks
approach in my next project.

I will try again adding more detail in the hope that this will help.
The following is not a minimal example but a bare outline of what I have

This structure works with MKII, so the query is whether something has

I should add, perhaps, that I am using MKII, since adapting this project to

I have been trying to index the passages cited in a book and would be

There are several works by a single author, and it is customary to cite
each text by page and line number, as in 1253.12 (page 1253, line12), for
example.
I have a sort key for each work. But
The latest ConTeXt MKIV (standalone) does not produce footnotes.

This will show “Stuff” with a footnote call but no footnote appears at the
bottom of the page.
All is as it should be with MKII.

The hitch here is that the font size is not context dependent.

Thank you so much for your very helpful response.
1. \unskip works well.
2. What I currently have is admittedly an ad hoc system for encoding my
indices. As you note, the system works for page numbers 99
I have been following this with some interest, since I am having a similar

I dimly recall discussion of linebreaking after “/”, but have not been able
to retrieve it from the archives.
Can any one point to an explanation of how to make “/” a character that
will admit a following linebreak (without hyphenation) in MKII?
The aim is to break
