Well, I don't own a Lamport, and probably not many ConTeXt users own one, so your description could be more verbose. Nevertheless you might want to have a look at http://levana.de/context/ there is somewhere a module that should do something like this. But there is still a bug in there when the margins are too small. Patrick -- ConTeXt wiki: http://contextgarden.net
