[comp.text] MM - vertical margin

skumar@cbnewsh.ATT.COM (swaminathan.ravikumar) (06/26/89)

I would like to increase the space between the footer and the bottom
of the page and I could not get this working with the ".VM" mm macro.
Is there a problem with ".VM". Any suggestions welcome.

Thanks.

Yes, there most certainly is a problem with the .VM macro as received from
AT&T (Documenters Work Bench 2.0 at least).  The last line of the macro
reads:

		.(E 5 0\\$2 \}

but should be:

		.(E 5 0\\$2v \}

(note the added "v").  Just for reference, the .VM macro is wrong in both
/usr/lib/macros/mmt and /usr/lib/macros/mmn.
