At the request of Oliver Corff, I've attached two files: "test-macro-document-1.mom": The source file for "mom". (Please excuse the random tests that fill the file.)
"test-macro-document-1.pdf": The PDF output file that shows the problem of overstruck text on the second page, in the second column. The command line that I used was: $ groff -p -mom -Tpdf test-macro-document-1.mom > test-macro-document-1.pdf Thanks,-- Steve Ross On Friday, December 18, 2020, 3:30:46 PM CST, Steve Ross wrote: Groff mailing list, I have a problem as I'm using the "mom" macro package. I have attached the text file named "mom-overstruck.txt" to (I hope) diagram the issue that I see on the second page of my PDF file. I have two columns on both the first and second pages. On the first page, I expect the text at the bottom of the second column to continue on to the top of the first column on the second page. However, the problem is that the text that should be placed on the second page at the top of the *first* column is appearing at the top for the *second* column. So, it is overstriking other text that is "already" at the top of the second column. And the location at which text should be positioned in the first column has only blank space. What am I missing? Other info-------------------------- The "groff" version is 1.22.3.The "mom" version is 2.1-c_1.The command line is: $ groff -mom -Tpdf myText.mom > tmp.pdf Thanks for any insight that you can offer. -- Steve Ross
