If two products produce a different page count would you say one was 'wrong' or had failed the test? This is close to a page layout issue, not an ODF issue IMHO.

Are there tests within that which could be classed as ODF general rather than user group specific? regards -- Dave Pawson XSLT XSL-FO FAQ. http://www.dpawson.co.uk
