Hi Sonja,

Well, one good reason for you to make a definitive choice is that your HP
Design Guide tells you to use Layout 1 :-).

The problem with Layout 1 is that it's not very handy when using
PageMaker. I can be done, but the procedure is akward.

Personally I think Layout 1 is worth the trouble.

Best regards
