I have just spent several hours trying to get this right. But still can't. Very probalbly I have overlooked something silly. But being frustrated by now I'd appreciate it very much if you could have a look at this. With the following Code I get a Header on page 1 that is messed up after printing the closing ' " ' for a reason I don't understand. There is no footer on page 1 and inexplicable header and footer-rules on subsequent pages. greetings jan GNU groff version 1.20.1 ######################## snip from cv.mom ################# .PRINTSTYLE TYPESET .PAPER A4 .AUTHOR "Jan-Herbert Damm" .TITLE "Curriculum Vitae" .DOCHEADER OFF \# .L_MARGIN 2c .R_MARGIN 2c .T_MARGIN 6P .B_MARGIN 6P \# \# \################## \################## .HEADERS_AND_FOOTERS \ CENTER "\*[SIZE 9]\l'12P'\h'2P'jan-herbert damm - generalist\h'2P'\l'12P'" \ CENTER "\*[SIZE 8]jan-herbert damm, parchimer allee 96, 12359 berlin, 030 21 96 06 15, jan-h-d...@web.de" \################## \################## \# .START \########### end snip from cv.mom ############
