Hello,
I have often longer equations of the type
\startformula\startalign A = b c B = c d E = g h \intertext{Some intermediate text} F = h j G = k l \stopformula\stopalign
I would like to keep the alignment (per page), however I also would like to have automatic page breaks inbetween. I can split it manually into two \startformula\startalign ... \stopformula\stopalign blocks, but this I would have to adapt any time I change something, which changes the text length, before that block.
Any idea?
Additional question: Does anyone know why in the example the "Gauss' law" starts not at the top of the page but roughly two line further down?

Page break with math is a bit tricky at the moment. Before I come to that, some comments. Hans, right now zapf.tex reads \definetypeface [zapf] [cg] [calligraphy] [chancery] \switchtotypeface [zapf] [12pt,cg] Zapf Chancery \input tufte.tex Shouldn't that be surrounded by a start/stop (or bgroup/egroup) to prevent font changes in the entire document? Tobias, startintertext/stopintertext are already in the core, so you do not need to redefine those in your document. Now coming back to the main problem of equations not breaking across pages. Taco had provided a fix for making this work. There are a few issues with math equations breaking across pages, and this is the reason that the fix is not in the core. I am attaching Taco's fix, keep in mind that this is not final. Aditya
