Thank you. I have all numbers turning grey now. Regarding the setting of the
font size globally, I have not succeeded. I have tried numbers 8pt to 20pt
just to see the difference, but all without any changes.
Thank you,
Brian
Again my document.
\documentclass[a5paper,draft]{book}
\special{papersize=148mm, 210mm}
\usepackage{fontspec} % provides font selecting commands
\usepackage{xunicode} % provides unicode character macros
\usepackage{xltxtra} % provides some fixes/extras
\usepackage{polyglossia} % not sure what this does. My goal is to make a
document in Lao
\setdefaultlanguage[variant=us]{english}
\usepackage[usenames,dvipsnames]{color}
\defaultfontfeatures{Mapping=tex-text}
\setmainfont{Palatino}
\newfontfamily\versenumbers{Myriad Pro}
\definecolor{light-gray}{gray}{0.6}
\newcommand\graytext[1]{\textcolor{light-gray}{#1}}
\newcommand\graynumbers[1]{\textsuperscript{\graytext{#1}}}
\newcommand\vnum[1]{{\versenumbers\graynumbers{#1}}\,}
\begin{document}
This is a test of the \vnum{234} command.
End of test.
\end{document}
