We use an iterative method to treat the non-linear radiation feedback between the transition layer and the hot corona numerically using a Monte-Carlo Comptonization code in combination with the photoionization and line transfer code XSTAR. The subset of the parameter space allowed in self-consistent accretion-disk corona systems on energetic grounds is explored, checking for the emergence of emission lines and/or absorption edges, with special emphasis on the spectral range $E \lesssim 1$ keV where such features might become observable with the advent of the AXAF satellite. Comparing our model calculations to the broadband spectrum of GX~339-4, we find good agreement with the observed spectral features and discuss how the future detection of the predicted features at lower energies can be used to constrain parameters.8 pages; uses epsf.sty, rotate.sty; submitted to A&AAstrophysicstext
