121.0. "Messed-up braces & brackets in syntax display" by DSSDEV::EPPES (I'm not making this up, you know) Mon May 01 1989 18:22

    I'm processing an appendix that contains syntax diagrams with braces
    and brackets (you know the type).  The braces and brackets are "off"
    by about a line when the appendix is displayed.  It's hard to diagram
    it here, but I'll give it a try.  Example display:

    				        [          ]
		CENTER SELECTED OBJECTS  HORIZONTAL
					 VERTICAL

    The brackets (which are larger than shown here) are supposed to appear
    around HORIZONTAL and VERTICAL, to show that you can use one of them.

    This is true for every instance of brackets and braces.  This is on
    DOCUMENT T1.2, with the April 19 baselevel of the bookbuilding tools.
    Interestingly, these diagrams came out fine using DOCUMENT V1.1 and March
    20 baselevel of the online bookbuilding tools.

    Got the patch installed on DSSDEV, and now the braces and brackets
    are fine.  Many thanks!
