Space used by unexpected footnotes can probably catered for by another try, so I'd use 4 tries total. If you consider max-page-count, then any number can be just one too small. Also, perhaps some checks of page masters occuring a second time in a sequence of pages kept blank by spilling could provide a more robust solution.< I just chose an arbitrarily high number to be on the safe side. You're right about the "in theory", which is why I was just leaning on absurdity for protection- who'd want 100 blank pages, anyway? The page master check is an interesting idea, and I'll look into it, but there's a fair amount of implementation to do just to distribute "non progression checks" in various LMs. >I think a FOPException is preferable.< I agree with that, but I wanted to check before I started modifying interface definitions. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, email: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
