How do I specify a dimension that is an arithmetic expression? For example, \framed[width=\textwidth-12pt]{} Thanks, Bart

The syntax of \dimexpr and \numexpr is subtle and mysterious. For example, \framed[width=.61\textwidth,height=\dimexpr.61\textwidth*1486/1200\relax]{} works, but I never understood the limitations. How about an entry on the wiki?

\dimexpr and \numexpr are explaines in the e-tex manual. The only important thing for \dimexpr is to write the dimen value as first value after the \dimexpr command and then the numeric values. Wolfgang
