Thanks for the info. I am using \define for something simple, define some keywords with special format that I will be repeating a lot. Something like: \define\mybi{\bf\sl BoldItalic} Works fin except that if I use in a sentence like: This is \mybi word. It wil be typeset without any space between BoldItalic and word, like this: This is my BoldItalicword. Any ideas on how to overcome this? Thanks, Pepe
