Re: Page breaking problem

[Helin Gai <hg9@duke.edu>]

Thanks Hans for the prompt reply.

I tried the following code:

\definetextbackground[A] 
[frame=off,location=paragraph,backgroundcolor=gray]
\setuptyping[before={\starttextbackground[A]},after= 
{\stoptextbackground}]

But this resulted in tons of errors. Could you give some instruction  
as to how to proceed?

Thanks so much!

Colin
