Well, you did mention "para," but I wasn't sure which aspects of
paragraph formatting you looked at.

Anyway, I'm glad you got it sorted, with Suzanne's assistance.

Good suggestion, Stefan, although actually I had checked that aspect
(see my
original post).

This is a puzzler...I'm using odd and even pages (no different
first
page)
for a manual. The height of the footers is uneven - when you
print
preview or
print, the even page footer is aligned higher above the bottom
of
the page
than the odd page footer. Trying to position either the odd or
even
footer
(by opening the footer and dragging the ruler marks) results in
its
opposite
also being reduced or enlarged the same amount. Why can't I
position
the odd
and even page footers separately? I haven't had this happen
previously.

I have a page # and text in the footers. I inserted the page #s
from
the
header/footer toolbar. I checked the para. numbering for the
text
and page #s
- there's no additional space above.

The headers seem fine.
Has anyone come across this anomoly?
Thanks in advance.
