So I took the most "typical" LaTeX class to be the default one used, article. I'd expect the most common LaTeX class to truly represent the pinnacle of typesetting glory ;) Other than font, if Koma changes geometry/borders... I'm thinking that the article class must either 1) not embody "the classic rules" that well or 2) the classic rules aren't very aesthetically pleasing after all. John
