No simple answers, but a smallish comment: if you're going to use roman-numeral-numbered frontmatter, I believe that the numbering properly includes *all* of the pages of the frontmatter. And so if you have a title page, the ToC will be (ii) or (iii) depending on whether you're doing one- or two-sided. __ / ) Bernie Cosell /--< _ __ __ o _ BBN Sys & Tech, Cambridge, MA 02238 /___/_(<_/ (_/) )_(_(<_ cosell@bbn.com
