[NTG-context] Graphics in text-line
Dear list, Would it be possible to insert a tiny graphic, not larger than a capital M, into a textline? I am presently making a bilingual version of a sixteenth century French musical treatise, and I would like to copy as much as possible the typographic features of the original in the modern version, both French and a translation. In the original French edition some text lines contain musical symbols, not only the sharp, flat and natural characters but also some others, of which I can make graphics (png or pdf). I can place these praphics in the margin and even in a footnote (although with rather too much space above it) but I would prefer to have them in their text line. Is that doable? Thanks in advance.
