I would be very grateful if you could point me in a direction I can work forward from - I can only guess that there are similar mechanisms in the already existing MkIV code ... although the \pagenumber problem seems to indicate that it might be near to impossible :-/
dealing with multipass data in mkiv is completely different from mkii and at some point there will be a proper api for users (makes no sense now as i might as well change internals along with luatex developments) in mkiv we store info in tables and much is available during a document run anyway (in mkii we filter data from the tuo file) so the question is, what info do you need? it's probably easier to provide it as core functionality so i need speccs and a small test file Hans ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | fax: 038 477 53 74 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl -----------------------------------------------------------------
