Hi, Compare story.log by running tex on attached file and answering 'Q', 'R' and 'S'. In the first case there is an extra space before '[1]'. Does anybody know why? Is this a bug? ? Q OK, entering \batchmode... [1] ) ----- ? R OK, entering \nonstopmode... [1] ) ----- ? S OK, entering \scrollmode... [1] ) Regards, Igor
