Thanks, Peter. With some experimentation I got what I wanted. For the record, I'm using:

\definefontfeature[su][body][sups=yes,ordn=yes]%superior \definefontfeature[nu][body][numr=yes]%numerator \definefontfeature[po][body][pnum=yes,onum=yes]%proportional old style

\newcommand{\fnmstyle}{\addff{nu}\switchtobodyfont[12pt]} \newcommand{\fntstyle}{\addff{po}}

i was not even aware that \newcommand was there ... probably more a catch for bibtex issues

\setupnote[footnote][location=columns,numbercommand=\fnmstyle,textcommand=\fntstyle,textstyle=\addff{su},align={normal,hanging},split=verystrict,interaction=yes]

I don't know quite why it works, but it works---except for one little thing---there is a little vertical space between each footnote (apparently because of the \switchtobodyfont[12pt]).

that will indeed define the interlinespace; also, the regular \high command does some snapping while with the supp feature you're dependent on what the fonts delivers as ht/dp of a glyph ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | voip: 087 875 68 74 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl -----------------------------------------------------------------
