Re: [NTG-context] Placing margin notes on the left using Lua

Dear ConTeXt users,

I am typesetting a critical edition with margin notes. To place these, I am using the Lua code below. It is based on the code from the LuaTeX wiki (cf. http://wiki.luatex.org/index.php/Post_linebreak_filter#Margin_notes) and has the restrictions mentioned on this wiki page. For example, placing notes on the left of the text is not possible.

Why don’t you use ConTeXt’s \margindata command to place your margin texts? \setuppagenumbering[alternative=doublesided] \starttext \dorecurse{20} {\margindata[inouter]{Knuth} %\margindata[inleft]{Knuth} \input knuth\par} \stoptext Wolfgang
