Thank you, this is beginning to look good.
Your first method, uncommented, does not work for me. I get an error at
the first occurrence of \inmargin.
Using the method you commented out, I get what I want. I'm a little
perplexed at why I can't include align=flushleft as in
\setupmargindata[inmargin]
[style=InMarginStyle, align=flushleft]. I'm unable to find any reference
to \setupmarginframed via Google.
Using \setuppagenumbering[style=\rmx, location={header, inmargin},
align=right],
I'm able to get close to what I want, though 'align=right' has no effect.
Oddly (?), my system knows no Ward, nor Tufte, nor Zapf, nor any
of the rest of them. :)
Thanks, -Richard

The first line is a comment which says
\definefont[InmarginStyle][Sans at 18pt]
\setupmargindata[inmargin][style=InmarginStyle]
takes less time to change the font than
\setupmargindata[inmargin][style={\switchtobodyfont[ss,18]}]
but you won’t notice the difference unless your document has thousands of pages
and even then you will notice it only will large fonts (e.g. chinese fonts).

The command has no align option but you can use the command key to use a
alignment command.

alternative=doublesided,
command={\alignedline{outer}{right}}] % command=\doalignline{outer}

Thank you again, very much.
I understood what you meant regarding the two methods. What I meant was that
this method:
\setupmargindata[inmargin][style={\switchtobodyfont[ss,18]}]
results in an error, causing Context to stop executing, when it first
encounters
the \inmargin{} statement.

Replace “18” with “18pt”.

[NTG-context] setupinmargin, setupmargindata ; page numbers ; fonts
Hi all,
I am having trouble with the control of fonts in \inmargin{} and in page
numbers. I'm also having trouble with the alignment in \inmargin{}, and with
font sizes generally.
I've used what I know about \setupmargindata and \setupinmargin(and
\setuppagenumbering).
Below is an example that (almost) does what I want.
The two or three problems I've tried and failed to solve are
1. control over the font size of the marginal note (rather than just \small; I
want to choose a point-size)
2. control over the font and size of the page number. At first I used
\setuppagenumbering[location={header, right, inmargin}] (yes, one of 'right' and
'inmargin' seems to be redundant). Getting a sans-serif page number, I assumed
that \setupmargindata was controlling that, so I just switched to 'right', but
my page number is still sans-serif. I've tried such things as [location={header,
right}, style={normal, small}], as well as variants {\small}, {normal},
{\normal}, serif, \serif, etc. with not luck
3. in \setupmargindata and \setupinmargin, none of the 'align=' options seems to
have any effect.
More generally, I have trouble understanding how to specify font sizes in
ConTeXt, how to set up the font and font-size of page elements, how to include
comma-separated lists following 'style=', where even within braces all but the
first option seems to be ignored (at least in my margin setup commands).
I also can't figure out why, though the default (location) for
\setuppagenumbering is {header, center} (and (font style) normal?), my page
numbers default to sans, and when 'location=right' is specified without
'header', the page number is on the right in the ... footer (?!)
Thanks for any help. -Richard

1. The font for the pagenumber can be changed with \setuppagenumbering[style=…].
2. To use a certain font size for the margin text you can either use the
\switchtobodyfont
command or define a font command with \definefont and use this name as
argument
for the style key in \setupmargindata.
3. The alignment in the margin text can be set with \setupmarginframed or the
second
optional argument of \inmargin.
