I will be using eomega so I will have etex but not pdftex (in case that makes a difference. The should be enlarged (bigger than \tfd perhaps) and run diagonal across the textblock (say, lower left to upper right corner). (There is actually an example of this in the LaTeX Graphics Companion using some dvips trick but I'd rather not go that route...) More funky: Maybe we can have a series of \tfd 's across and down the textblock, say, 3 x 6 matrix. I've been away 4 a long time, finally getting back into circulation. I'm sure I have a lot of catching up 2 do... Best greetings 2 all Idris -- Professor Idris Samawi Hamid Department of Philosophy Colorado State University Fort Collins, CO 80523
