Thank you for the test, Dave. I only tested this with no package and with -mm, which also causes .sp to be 'ignored' in the beginning of the document. Sorry for not mentioning it. I wonder why the initial position is always -1 (instead of 0) and why -- and how -- the mm, ms and me packages manage to affect .sp in this way. Ted Harding suggested that I use the zero-width character, which I did, and so I was able to get rid of this effect (both the initial offset of -1 and the omission of .sp) and described it in the previ- ous post.
