Just to provide more information about what I was thinking: You do your typesetting based on an XML doc. Now it is time for the finishing touches. In a tex document you'd add the usual commands to manipulate the layout: \adaptlayout[lines=+1] \testpage[3] \looseness=-1 / \looseness=+1 \blank \setuptolerance etc. Now, of course you can define an injector for these commands, some are predefined, like page, column, blank. But, if my understanding is correct, you'd have to define one for each of the possible parameters. So, you'll need: \startsetups xml:directive:injector:testpagethree \testpage[3] \stopsetups \startsetups xml:directive:injector:testpagefour \testpage[4] \stopsetups etc., and \startsetups xml:directive:injector:addoneline \adaptlayout[lines=+1] \stopsetups \startsetups xml:directive:injector:addtwolines \adaptlayout[lines=+1] \stopsetups Here, I was thinking if something like this could be easier: <?context-directive raw-tex-injector \testpage[4]?> Wolfgang's solutions seems to provide that with different means. If I understand correctly, you'd just map an arbitrary XML element to this setup, and you can then do this: <rawtex> \testpage[4] </rawtex> Correct? If yes, that would be a nice solution, but those elements are probably not allowed if your document needs to be validated against a schema, yet processor instructions will be ignored during validation. Any ideas for alternative approaches? What do you think about a raw-tex injector? (Another possibility would be to use Wolfgang's suggestion, and then to use an XSLT stylesheet to remove those illegal nodes for validation purposes...) Best, Denis

I'll need a new element for this right? But what if the schema doesn't allow this?

I mean without breaking the xml of course. Something like an ad hoc injector...
\startxmlsetups ... \xmlflushcontext{#1} \stopxmlsetups
