\showstruts \setuppagenumbering[style=\bfd\setcharstrut{0123456789}\strut,strut=no] - no default strut - calculate one based on to-be-used-characters (tight case) - apply that one

compare it with \setuppagenumbering[style=\bfd\setstrut\strut]

thanks a lot. that indeed fixes it.

And then wikify it

can do. although things are not yet 100% clear to me (not much to be found in the documentation). so is this right:

-- I guess `\setstrut\strut' does set the strut to the maximum height of all the glyphs in the used font? the explanation in 4.6 of the ref. manual is not really telling me how the box height in the example comes about (i.e. what the mentioned `maximal height' actually is).

\setstrut: ht and dp according to settings of lineheight which relates to the x height (font property)

-- `\setcharstrut{0123456789}': the command seems to be completely undocumented (I could not find it in wiki and ref. manual), but it seems clear what it does. except what do you mean by "tight case" here?

set the strut to match the given set of characters

-- why is it necessary to state `strut=no' to switch of the default on top of setting the strut explicitly?

just try it ... i assume you don't want too much depth Hans ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | voip: 087 875 68 74 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl -----------------------------------------------------------------
