I'm not sure what you're saying. That \H'' functionality is missing from the mom macros? It's there. Raising or lowering font height (Y-axis) has the corresponding effect of condensing or expanding (X-axis). Mom exploits the latter and uses \H'' to create pseudo-condensed and pseudo-expanded font effects, invoked inline with \*[CONDENSE] or \*[EXPAND]. Nothing prevents using \H'' itself if, conceptually, you prefer to think of the type deformation as stretching/squashing vertically rather than horizontally. I may be misunderstanind what you're saying, though. -- Peter Schaffter http://www.schaffter.ca
