I am typesetting an old Bible. The verse numbers should be in the inner margin. I followed the advice from this thread, and it works. However, it always puts the line number annotations in the left margin, whether or not it is the inner or outer margin. How do I make it always put the verse numbers in the inner margin?

The line number annotation are annotations to the line number. So, setting the line number position will set the line number annotations. You can do it using \linenummargin (§ 5.3.4 of the handbook), you can also set the side note margin usinge \sidenotemargin (§ 12.1).

So

\documentclass[twoside,10pt]{book} \usepackage[paperheight=9in,paperwidth=6in,inner=1.in,outer=1.25in,top=0.6in,bottom=0.6in,heightrounded,marginpar=1.5cm]{geometry} \usepackage[noresetlinenumannotation, series={A}, noend,noeledsec,nofamiliar,noledgroup]{reledmac} \newcommand{\bv}[1]{\linenumannotation{#1}} \makeatletter \Xwraplinenumannotation{\@firstofone} \renewcommand{\linenumrep}[1]{} \makeatother \Xnoidenticallinenumannotation \linenummargin{inner} \sidenotemargin{outer} \begin{document} sss \newpage \begin{center} \textbf{\large Chapter I}\par \textit{\scriptsize The pedegree of Jesus, to shew that he is Christ, promised to * Abraham and * David. 18.
