I don't recall seeing this behavior in prior versions so a hint on how to clean up the page is appreciated.
Version 1.6.4 on linux, document class is article and the headings are fancy. When I look at the pdf output I see the page number both centered at the bottom of each page and adjacent to the section title in the heading of each page. This is with my default preamble of \date{} and nothing else. Seems to me that fancy headers automagically removed the centered footer page numbers. Has this changed? Rich
