I tried your example as sent, and I had no margin intrusions--are you having hyphenation problems? Is cmr still your default font? (Or are you perhaps using UK hyphenation rules?) >2.

It seems a feature interaction with corner rounding-- I suspect they were never intended to go together. You'll probably need to get into MetaPost for proper fancy bordering. >4.

Yeah, I just went with the default margins/layout and turned on the page frames to more clearly/minimally illustrate the example. This *ought* to work with any sane layout... -- =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Adam T.
