Isn't this what you want:

http://xep.xattic.com/xep/testsuite/usecases/marginalia.pdf

This uses <fo:float float="outside>...</fo:float>

It is on this page:

http://renderx.net/usecasestest.html

Under the heading "Creating marginalia using side floats".

Hi,

Still no solution. But I found out that there is a getColumnNumber()
method in the saxon.jar as well. Can someone point to an example on how
to use this? It seems, I have trouble to understand on how this whole
xmlns/java classes/extention thing works :(

Regards
Gabriel
