As there was no reply at all on this thread I got in fear that the "slipping last line of a split footnote" is a basic TeX bug, well known and maybe inevitable?! So I tried to reproduce the same situation in LaTeX (as I don't know the plain TeX equivalent): \documentclass[11pt]{article} \begin{document} \input tufte \input ward\footnote{\input ward \input tufte \relax} \input tufte \input ward\footnote{\input ward \input tufte \relax} \input tufte \input ward\footnote{\input ward \input tufte \relax} \end{document} Good news: this works! So it seems "only" to be a ConTeXt internal bug, and not part of the TeX core. Hans, it's your turn :o) Steffen
