Paul, The problem is that standard LaTeX page definitions do not allow the precise layout design which is one of memoir's purposes, so the package does things differently. The default values are ones which are used very frequently, so new users of memoir often don't notice the difference. But when you want to move away from the default you have problems. That's how I found out that memoir does things differently. Les -- Les Denham -- lyx-users mailing list lyx-users@lists.lyx.org http://lists.lyx.org/mailman/listinfo/lyx-users
