LOL - I heard that also described the other day as "bus factor" - how replaceable you are if hit by a bus - a high bus factor is bad from the company's perspective ;>)

I got precise spacing in my FrameMaker template by using Above Pgf and
Below Pgf.

The template I was replacing when I first created it had maybe 60
paragraph tags including a full complement of "first" variations. I
reduced that to16 plus five used only in generated files and front
matter to control master page usage. I had a second template for the
~TOC versions of the heading tags so they didn't clutter up the other
files.

Even if your company has only one writer, somebody else might take
over your job someday.
