Indeed! And the only context in which I have observed anything similar
is when the last (output) line is right at the bottom of a page, when
a new (and superfluous) blank page can be triggered (in ms macros at
least). But this is a case of springing the "bottom of page" trap, and
does not relate, I think, to what smoore is experiencing.

So yes, please, a simple example!
Ted.
