Hi Pablo, for each defined colour there is a command that can be called to switch. \centerbox centres the text vertically. It is not the most elegant solution, but the following does what you asked for. \setuppapersize [S6] [S6] \setuppagenumber [state=stop] \setupbackgrounds [page] [back

Thanks, I see the difference appearing in lucidaot with your example. A pity italic correction isn't available for the n (and some others, I fear). It makes {\it n}x{\it n} for n multiplied by n harder in the text, as I find $n\times n$ within running text to alien looking. That makes {\it n}\,x{

I cannot see the italic correction. Neither in the default not, nor in lucidaot. An explicit \/ (plain TeX material!) makes no difference. Addition of \setupitaliccorrection[always] also did not make a difference. What am I doing wrong? Hans van der Meer % italic correction \setuppapersize[A6]
