However, assuming that DSSSL supports this, through the page-sequence. A page-model would be used with a page region for the envelope window. But, for now, this is only in theory, since Jade/JadeTeX dose not support the page-sequence flow object. So, in practice, Brandon's comments are perfectly legitimate :-) Regards, /Peter Nilsson -- '(#\P . (#\e . (#\t . (#\e .
