Hello, When the backgrounded stuff starts from one page up to the following, it doesn't take care about the bottom footnotes, so that they are covered by the background.
Here is a small example: \definecolor[ScreenGray][s=.95] \definetextbackground[grayback] [background=color, backgroundcolor=ScreenGray, frame=on, strut=yes, width=broad, location=paragraph, framecolor=ScreenGray, leftoffset=\topskipgap, before=\blank, after=\blank, align=right] \starttext A footnote\footnote{Covered by the background, right?}. \input tufte \input tufte \input tufte \input tufte \starttextbackground[grayback] \input tufte \stoptextbackground \stoptext Regards, BG _______________________________________________ ntg-context mailing list ntg-context@ntg.nl http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context
