the text comes out green all right, but the blue background is smeared all over two pages. I have tried a few modifications to no avail, so I fear I am doing it all wrong.
What version do you use? (take the latest) looks ok here, that is, when you add: before=\blank, after=\blank, to the deifnition of the background [of play with the offsets]
Curiously, when I typeset the above th first time, I only get the green text (no blue), and the mess shows only up when typesetting the second time.
normally texexec should handle that for you (multiple runs are needed to sort out the background) Hans ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE | pragma@wxs.nl Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: +31 (0)38 477 53 69 | fax: +31 (0)38 477 53 74 | www.pragma-ade.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------- information: http://www.pragma-ade.com/roadmap.pdf documentation: http://www.pragma-ade.com/showcase.pdf -------------------------------------------------------------------------
