I found I had to do this: \defineparagraphs [ingredient] [n=2, before={\blank[small]},after={\blank[small]}] \setupparagraphs [ingredient] [1] [width=.16\textwidth,align=left,style=bold] 2) In order to format format headers for a book so that the book title appears on the left-hand page and the section title on the right, I had to do this: \setupheadertexts [] [section] [title] [] ... which, as I read the documentation, is in the opposite order to what it should be. Is this a bug in ConTeXt, or have I misconfigured something? -- Matt Gushee When a nation follows the Way, Englewood, Colorado, USA Horses bear manure through mgushee@havenrock.com its fields; http://www.havenrock.com/ When a nation ignores the Way, Horses bear soldiers through its streets. --Lao Tzu (Peter Merel, trans.)
