Hello,
I didn't find a way to put text at specific locations on the page. It must be something obvious! :-)
I try to design a screen document where every notes are, say, typeset on the lower half of the page and appear only when clicking on their number in the text (with layers I think).
Thnaks in advance,
Gilles.
PS for Hans: I didn't forget the note problem we've discussed in Mâcon. I'll build a test file.
