I see. So is it reliable to simply use lua function tex.getcount(‘realpageno’) in vertical mode to determine that page has changed ? Or do I need some other mechanism please ? If page has changed I agree that there is no need to deal with hangindent.
I use grid typesetting so normally all lines have same height ?
