Tomasz,
OK, it is not a big deal, in one way or another.
Do you plan to increase someday the 20 sheets ?
[It is a long time that I read 2 or 3cm panes...It is a good
excercise, but...]
It could be solved through more layouts, but it is better to have
everything at a glance, especially the decision making time.
Thanks again, 4.40 seems impressive.
