Thanks Maieul; appreciated.

Another question, again for reledmac; is there a way to refer to a familiar foot note number from within another familiar foot note?

E.g.,

11 foot note number one; just some text.
12 foot note number two; see also note #11.

Hello List,

I'm using Reledmac to footnote a text; mainly using the familiar notes feature.

Is there a convenient way to separate the foot note text from the main text (in the source code)?

I ask because embedding lots of notes within the main text essentially makes the main text unreadable (in ...

Hello List,

I'm new (a couple of weeks into my first LaTeX document).

I have been experimenting with the Letterine package for drop caps. It seems to work fine with the default typefaces.

However, (I'm using XeLaTeX) if I use package fourier, or polyglossia, or fontspec to choose a non-default ...

Thanks Stefan_K that worked great.

I think all my original requirements are either solved, or now obsolete. Many thanks

Thanks Johannes_B, that worked for the Marks. Many thanks--I have spent hours looking for examples and guessing, but I never would have guessed that :)

Yes, there were a couple of other questions, but I solved them already, so I edited them out.

One was removing the horizontal rule above footnotes ...

Here's where I am at so far:

\documentclass[12pt,twoside]{article}
\usepackage{polyglossia,fontspec,xunicode}
\usepackage{libertineotf}
\usepackage{microtype}
\setmainlanguage{english}
\setlength{\parindent}{0pt}

\usepackage[series={A},noend,noeledsec]{reledmac}
\firstlinenum{1 ...

Thanks for the welcome :)

yes, the reledmac package is looking really promising for my scenario.

One thing I can't figure out from the (generally excellent) documentation is how to control the appearance (type size) of a familiar-note's Mark where the notes are typeset below the main text ...

Okay.

So after several days of searching in all the wrong places I have finally stumbled across the existence of the reledmac and ednotes packages for typesetting critical editions, which may be what I need.

No takers?

Perhaps I am way off the mark, and there's simply a "better way" to do a critique-type documents? I would be happy to learn about it!

Meanwhile, this is the closest I've managed so far:


\documentclass[english]{article}

%\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}

\usepackage{babel}

\begin{document ...
