I have typed a whole book(text + commentary) with reledmac expecting that it will allow me to get the book which looks something like this.

However, due to some basic problems with LaTeX, it appears to be impossible at this time. It was revealed in this discussion.

So, now my requirement is to convert all critical footnotes to critical endnotes.

I know how to convert normal footnotes to normal endnotes with help of

\usepackage{endnotes}
\let\footnote=endnote

But, it doesn't work for critical footnotes. Does any command exist which can automate this process?

The second solution may be to use pandoc to convert the tex to docx, or something similar and then put manually in InDesign, etc. But, pandoc can't understand custom commands which I created for my project. Is it possible to 'teach' pandoc to convert custom commands?

Any help is appreciated.

    normally, \let\Aendnote=\Afootnote should work. Which message do you get wrong ? – Maïeul Feb 02 '20 at 09:39
  • Thanks, for the hint. To be honest, I didn't have any idea how to do that with critical notes. It works now. It saved whole problem to extract footnotes and compile with non-LaTeX software or with pandoc. BTW, I was getting maxsize exceeded, or something like that. I think at least my book can be published now. Thanks. BTW, if you have time please look at the Sanskrit page sample which I provided in OP. This is how Sanskrit texts with commentaries were printed. If possible, please accommodate some way to create such texts with LaTeX and reledmac. – lalitaalaalitah Feb 02 '20 at 14:02
  • @Maïeul There appears to be a problem. If the lemma was bold then the converted critical endnote is coming all bold. How can we avoid this? This was not the problem when using them as critical footnotes. – lalitaalaalitah Feb 02 '20 at 14:26
  • please open an issue on github. – Maïeul Feb 03 '20 at 10:51
