I am afraid that isn't possible just now. The problem seems very specific in the placing of the footnote (narrow margin of error) and after editing my current text it has vanished. It looks like one of those erratic problems that tend to occur mostly when one is in a hurry. Seeing the value of the shift: > PlainTextArea:=boundingbox((95.23926pt,72.9016pt)--(95.23926pt, > 72.9016pt); > shifted (609.52148pt,476.59792pt));; and considering I am using pages with a reduced height, I suspect this is just about equivalent to 1 \textheight. But the point is that inside a metapost statement "boundingbox ... shifted ..." a ";" has appeared and that cannot be good. Sorry not having a minimal example at hand at the moment. When less pressed for time I will do some experiments with changing pagefill (I guess best done by placing rules of varying height). Surely I will contact again if I found such an example. > > Taco > _______________________________________________ > ntg-context mailing list > ntg-context@ntg.nl > http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context Hans van der Meer _______________________________________________ ntg-context mailing list ntg-context@ntg.nl http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context
