boggle. there exist classes that suppress that command, but article doesn't. i don't understand what's happened to \rm, but it doesn't really matter > Moreover, it's the same with \nopagenumbers and \bye all three are plain tex commands, and you asked for latex. (\rm is retained in standard latex, including article, to help people compile their old documents ... but people haven't learned the new commands, even though "new" in this context means "since 1994"...) as Jill-Jênn said: use pdftex rather than pdflatex. robin ------------------------------- [email protected] mailing list If you want to unsubscribe or look at the archives, go to http://tug.org/mailman/listinfo/tex-music
