[The MWE references one font "Bookman Old Style" - you might need to replace it. I have attached the referenced EPS graphic files]
"Simple" question(s)?
As shown I set the textblock height to be 540pt, but when it's processed it comes out at 550pt and I lose the gap that I thought I had between the bottom of the textblock and the footer. Any idea why - and why I seem to have lost the footskip?
(I guess it is \checkandfixthelayout, but I've done all the calculations in a spreadsheet and don't see why it should be changing anything. If I just use \fixthelayout the result is the same, but I don't get the readout of the layout parameters. If I do neither, the layout is completely wrong... even though the parameters I've set look perfectly sensible to me.)
