Hi Joris,

I don't know what I did that was different than this, but your method works and my doesn't. Thanks for the speedy reply, and the great editor. One further question: the book style appears to insert a blank page before the table of contents. Am I expected to put a cover page, then a blank page, then a table of contents? If I want to, can I change this?

Cheers,
Nick Alexander

I am using TeXmacs to typeset a large document, consisting of about
eight chapters. As is recommended, each chapter is a separate file
included by a master, and all front-matter such as table of contents
and bibliography are in the master. I would like my front-matter to be
page numbered with roman italics, like i, ii, iii, iv, etc. The first
page of the first chapter should be 1, then 2, 3, 4, etc. I have
figured out how to assign the page-odd/even-footer to display roman
italics, but I cannot make the table of contents respect my footer
choices. Regardless of how I have the footer set, the table of
contents displays only page-nr. Any suggestions? Hopefully someone
has already packaged this up :)

Hmm, I don't understand your problem exactly. Probably you just made
a silly mistake somewhere. This is what you should do:

1) At the start of your document, do

Insert -> Page numbering -> Page number text

and enter the following

M-e # (for roman numbering)
\ page-nr <return> (the page number)
<right> roman (for roman numbering)
<return> <return> <return> (activate everything)

2) Just before your first chapter title, do

Insert -> Page numbering -> Renumber this page

and give 1 <return> as the current page number.

3) Just behind that, restore the page numbering but by using
"arabic" instead of "roman" (or just omit the M-e # stuff).

On my example file, the table of contents looks like it should.

Best wishes, Joris
