I'll try digging into that; it sounds interesting. Groff seems to have a % 
operator, which does page numbering when used as L, M, or Right field in a 
title, header, or footer.

Any hints which might expedite hitting that target, even if only partial in 
effect, would be very helpful here. (Offlist, perhaps, as some seem to think 
that Vimmers shouldn't look over the edge of the groove.)

Something like that was revealed by the spacing introduced to justify the "A5 
booklet" line. ;-) I'll have to see whether justification is intrinsic, or I 
have to fiddle with config, especially if I omit macro libraries as ill-defined 
murk interfering with my groffing.
