Re: "Maybe more of us could ask for [for the abilty to have separate page and type measuring systems in a document] in our respective layout programs". I use Ventura and it already has this feature. Page measurements can be in inches, millimetres, picas, points, ciceros, or didot points and on-screen rulers can be set in inches, picas, millimetres, ciceros, or decimal inches. Both of these settings are independent of the units set in type dialogue boxes (which offer the same choices as for pages). Though, as I indicated, I use points for the pages and picas for the rulers. Cheers, Dominic
