The bug appears on my printout as well and we use ditroff + Xerox' Interpress Toolkit to produce output on their laser printers. I haven't had an opportunity to try your bugfix yet, so I don't really know if it helps, of course, but I trust you on your words (and it *looks* right) :-). First I thought that it might be ditroff vs. troff problems, but since you use troff I'm not so sure any more. Anybody else who knows? --Lennart -- Dept of Computer and Information Science, University of Linkoping, Sweden UUCP: {seismo, mcvax}!enea!liuida!lel EARN/BITNET: LEL@SELIUI51 ARPA: lel%ida.liu.se@seismo.CSS.GOV EAN/X.400: lel@ida.liu.sunet SUNET-bis: L-LOVSTRAND@LISBET PSI/X.25: PSI%240200100403::LEL
