ok, a fix first (missing \fi)

\def\godown[#1]%
 {\relax
  \ifhmode\endgraf\fi
  \ifvmode\nointerlineskip\vskip#1\relax\fi}

okay. Those missing \fi's were troubling.

what you observe is some interference; the fitting page macros use framed and when you set width and height to fit, it will use the reshaperr to determine the width; this mechanism fails as soon as nodes show up that cannot be \un-whatevered or \last-whatevered; also, some mechanisms have as side effect that they force the box to have a width of \hsize

Okay, I thought it might be something like that.

you may see some of the side effects when you play with:

so, there is no real solution unless you use the foreground color or box things yourself

Hmm. Forgroundcolor is not a solution for me, as I'm trying to mix colors (e.g., black + a spot).

However, if I go ahead and \hbox each line and \vbox the set, it looks like I have something workable!

Thanks,
