Greetings,
I am working on a document with many annotations of different types,
and have a couple of questions.
(Before the questions, though, I am quite impressed with ConTeXt so
far. It is much nicer to work with than any of the TeX or LaTeX packages
I have worked with before.)
First, what is the preferred way to get marginal text? Is \margintext,
\inmargin, or some other the current best practice?
Second, is there a way to get marginal text for a footnote? Here is a
minimal working example:
\starttext
Text for
the\footnote{A\margintext{Where am I?} footnote.}
main\margintext{I am here.}
body.
\stoptext
Finally, is there a way to have different classes of footnotes? I would like
to have three classes of footnotes to be displayed something like:
——
1. first footnote of class 1
2. second footnote of class 1.
——
a. first footnote of class 2.
b. second footnote of class 2.
——
1. first footnote of class 3.
2. second footnote of class 3.
That is, the footnotes of each class should appear together, with a “normal”
footnote rule
above them. Each class of footnotes should also have its own numbering scheme.
Footnotes of class 1 are “regular” footnotes in the main text body.
Footnotes of class 2 will be longer, and will occasionally be more than one
paragraph.
They, also, will occur in the main text body. To complicate matters, they may
have
marginal notes and footnotes (of class 3).
Footnotes of class 3 are footnotes that occur in footnotes of class 2.
\definenote[NoteA]
\definenote[NoteB]

Text for the \NoteB{B\margintext[scope=local]{Where am I?} footnote B.}
main\inleft{I am here.} body.
Text for the \NoteC{C\margintext[scope=local]{Where am I?} footnote C.}

Re: [NTG-context] replacing images in PDF documents

Re: [NTG-context] Footnotes and Marginal texts
This is definite progress. Thanks. But I don’t see footnotes of type NoteC
when used inside a NoteB. Example:
==
\definenote[NoteA]
\definenote[NoteB]
\definenote[NoteC]
\setupnotation[NoteB][numberconversion=characters]
\setupnotation[NoteC][numberconversion=Romannumerals]
\starttext
Text for the \NoteB{B\margintext[scope=local]{Where am I?} footnote
\NoteC{C footnote C.} B.} main body.
Text for the \NoteA{A first footnote A.} main\inleft{I am here.} body.
Text for the \NoteA{A second footnote A.} body.
\stoptext
==
This seems related to an even simpler example from the Wiki
==
\starttext
This\footnote{Or that\footnote{Or possibly even the other.}, if you
prefer.} is a sentence with a footnote.

Could this be implemented in ConTeXt? I guess that the new document generation could be achieved with something like: \setuppapersize[A4][A4] \setuplayout [backspace=0pt, topspace=0pt, width=middle, height=middle, location=middle, header=0pt, footer=0pt] \starttext \insertpages[document.pdf][width=0pt] \stoptext The command could be something like: \replaceexternalfigure[oldimagefile][newimagefile] BTW, I have just checked that file names include full paths (such as in /PTEX.FileName (/home/ousia/cow.pdf). I guess that it would be safe that searching and replacement mechanism could avoid full paths.
