I guess by the 'same problem', you're referring to Winifried's, not mine.

I'm not using sideheads here, so I'd guess that if it's a bug, it's related to 
the reference page graphic.

Show/hide as in conditional text? Well, I'm not using conditional text anywhere 
near this problem para, but as I said before, I've not yet managed to trap what 
actually does trigger it.

What do you mean by the 'default' setting for font sizes and spacing? The 
settings before overrides, or something else? (I'm not applying overrides.)

Bummer.

As here: the only overrides I permit myself are a few 'keep with nexts' when 
doing final page balancing.
