> The best I can do. Thanks Wolfgang. At first glance, it appears to cover the essentials. I'll need to hack on it for a few days to test the minor requirements that aren't so obvious in the sample PDF, but this gets me going again.
A particular advantage (if I'm interpreting this layout correctly) is avoiding the use of column spans for header and footer material (other than the actual column headings). This report has a number of different tabular layouts that I didn't show you, each with unique column counts. Much more reliable if it isn't necessary to watch colspan values in the meta-data sections (which should really be includes.) I would think the general requirement here isn't that unusual for certain types of technical reports. This report is for a regulatory compliance application. If printed pages within a single report are ever separated, it is essential that the meta-data for the inspection be available on each page, not just the first or last. The same must be true for many scientific and technical layouts. I particularly need to get my head around what's different from my initial approach. Once again, thanks. I'll report on results in a few days for anyone following this. cheers, david ___________________________________________________________________________________ If your question is of interest to others as well, please add an entry to the Wiki! maillist : ntg-context@ntg.nl / http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context webpage : http://www.pragma-ade.nl / http://tex.aanhet.net archive : http://foundry.supelec.fr/projects/contextrev/ wiki : http://contextgarden.net ___________________________________________________________________________________
