Hello
Hmm. Would it work if in the \overstrike argument you put in a ghost

concerned but not actually output visibly?
But alas, I have no experience of handling these exotic fonts.

It's just possible that \global \mark would do the trick. Otherwise,
immediate writes and reads look like a good solution to me.

If you have got to a point where everything works except that the right-hand
side has slipped to a measurable extent (viz. the height plus depth of the
left-hand side), then you could measure the left-hand side as an initial
operation, store that measurement, and start the right-hand side with
headers.)
Your footnote macro will have something comparable, and the marks would have
to be invoked after this advancing of the number, so actually part of your
footnote macro - perhaps something like '\mark{\the\ notenumber}' - not
sneaked in just before it gets to work.
Good luck anyway!

true to say
that any exceptions you have loaded with \hyphenation will not be affected.
(But the Miktex references in your report suggest that you may not quite be
using plain XeTeX: I simply go the command prompt and type
xetex myfile
to produce a PDF.)
Best wishes

Ah good - I've found language.def so at least I now know what's on offer.
I'll enjoy experimenting.
Many thanks
