Subject: Questions related to margin/dynamic layout
Date: Fri, 26 Aug 2011 23:40:18 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <CA+C1juan0WQHqxLVZk30g8iSCcLiX6kkMGHA-0cyHaruOQBafw@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

Hi,

I have two questions related to margin:

- is it possible to move footnotes to margin?
- similar question: I want to have a list in the margin with all the
indexes in the given page.

How to make these possible?

Third question is related to layout.

I know how to change page layout for a particular page. but how to
change layout for a page whose number is unknown?

for example, I am writing a book that has several large pictures
(imagine a portfolio, or a book introducing photography).

in order to fit the pictures I plan to set each pictures as page
background or layers, that spans 3/2 pages, while leaving the
remaining span (1/2 page) for text.

however, I don't know which page number the picture should be reside,
but I know it should be put near some given text content.

it's not possible to manually give the page number according to the
content because usually document context/formatting change all the
time.

how to do that?



Thanks.
