Hi Pablo !
Now, with the same scheme you generously gave us, I try to print (as a sample) some Ancient Greek text on a column located at left, with its Latin translation located on the right of the page and 'criticus apparatus' in French the footnotes, as previously asked.
Then, we have Greek, Latin and French languages...
Thank you very much for your help !

A sample of Aristotle Greek:
[1a] Ὁμώνυμα λέγεται ὧν ὄνομα μόνον κοινόν, ὁ δὲ κατὰ τοὔνομα λόγος τῆς οὐσίας ἕτερος, οἷον ζῷον ὅ τε ἄνθρωπος καὶ τὸ γεγραμμένον• τούτων γὰρ ὄνομα μόνον κοινόν, ὁ δὲ κατὰ τοὔνομα λόγος τῆς οὐσίας ἕτερος• ἐὰν γὰρ ↵ ἀποδιδῷ τις τί ἐστιν αὐτῶν ἑκατέρῳ τὸ ζῴῳ εἶναι, ἴδιον ἑκατέρου λόγον ἀποδώσει.
Latin translation:
Aequivoca dicuntur quorum nomen solum commune est, secundum nomen vero substantiae ratio diversa, ut animal homo et quod pingitur. Horum enim solum nomen commune est, secundum nomen vero substantiae ratio diversa; si enim quis assignet quid est utrique eorum quo sint animalia, propriam assignabit utriusque rationem.

I am currently writing in French some ConTeXt documentation. That's why I'm looking for some help about coding footnotes within a 'critical apparatus' work, like the sample given here below (which is given by Maieul Rouquette through its release of reledmac's LaTeX macro). Let me know, please, some documentation resources on this topic.
My question is as follow : how can ConTeXt produce the same printing as the one given by LaTeX ? I am not looking for a very translation in ConTeXt of this file given in LaTeX ! A similar sample (where different levels of notes are managed as in this LaTeX file) will be perfect.
Hi Jean-Pierre, here you have a basic sample: \mainlanguage[la] \setuplayout[header=0cm, footer=0cm] \setuplinenumbering[step=5] \setupnotations[alternative=serried] \definelinenote[aNote] \definelinenote[bNote][n=2] \definelinenote[cNote][n=3] \definelinenote[dNote][paragraph=yes] \def\ANote#1#2{#1\aNote{#1] #2}} \def\BNote#1#2{#1\bNote{#1] #2}} \def\CNote#1#2{#1\cNote{#1] #2}} \def\DNote#1#2{#1\dNote{#1] #2}} \setupbodyfont[palatino, 7.8pt] \starttext \start\en \startlinenumbering \dorecurse{9}% only to repeat the following paragraph {Cum defensionum \CNote{laboribus}{first note} senatoriisque muneribus aut omnino aut magna ex parte essem aliquando liberatus, rettuli me, Brute, te hortante maxime ad ea studia, quae retenta animo, remissa temporibus, longo intervallo intermissa revocavi, et cum omnium artium, quae ad rectam vivendi viam pertinerent, \ANote{ratio}{second note} et disciplina studio sapientiae, quae philosophia dicitur, contineretur, hoc mihi Latinis litteris \DNote{inlustrandum}{third note} putavi, non quia \BNote{philosophia}{fourth note} Graecis et litteris et doctoribus percipi non posset, sed meum semper iudicium fuit omnia nostros aut invenisse per se sapientius quam Graecos aut accepta ab illis fecisse meliora, quae quidem digna statuissent, in quibus elaborarent.\par} \stoplinenumbering \stoptext I hope it helps, Pablo -- http://www.ousia.tk ___________________________________________________________________________________ If your question is of interest to others as well, please add an entry to the Wiki! maillist : ntg-context@ntg.nl / http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context webpage : http://www.pragma-ade.nl / http://tex.aanhet.net archive : http://foundry.supelec.fr/projects/contextrev/ wiki : http://contextgarden.net ___________________________________________________________________________________
