Interactive documents will move to a dedicated manual. I also picked up an old thread, linked typo areas, which I'm now thinking of combining this with a tables based layout. Some experiments showed me that it's actually rather trivial to implement a mechanism that supports a more 'wild' layout spec, like areas [margin, header, etc] spanning others etc. The main conceptual problem is how to intergrate this smoothly. Of course old wish list stuff is still in progress (styles, documentation etc), Hans ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: +31 (0)38 477 53 69 | fax: +31 (0)38 477 53 74 | www.pragma-ade.com -------------------------------------------------------------------------
