I'm not sure how many old documents will break if it is fixed, though. The correct definition is: \defineblankmethod [2*big] {\addblankskip+{\bigskipamount}{\openlineheight}% \addblankskip+{\bigskipamount}{\openlineheight}} The current definition is: \defineblankmethod [2*big] {\addblankskip+{2\bigskipamount}{2\openlineheight}}% but that does not copy the stretch and shrink parts. TeX is a bit stupid come to skip assignments, after \skip0=3D5pt plus 10pt minus 10pt \skip1=3D2\skip0 \skip0 will be *exactly* 10pt, without any glue components. Cheers, Taco
