We're having a real problem getting troff to handle footnotes properly on long documents using mm. Whenever it's unable to place a footnote on the page where it belongs, troff carries it over to the succeeding page, but instead of placing the footnote below a page wide rule, it indents about five or six inches before placing the text. As a result, any carried over footnotes almost always end up running off the page. Has anybody else encountered this problem? How can we fix it? -- Russell Lawrence, WP Group, New Orleans (504) 443-5000 russ@wpg.com uunet!wpg!russ
