Hi eliz.bell,

If you use an ADVANCE field to move down the page 279 points, insert some text, then use another ADVANCE field coded to move down the page 108 points, you should end up 383 points down the page (it does for me). The new position will, however, be offset to the right of the previous line by however many characters you had inserted on that line. The only way to avoid the offset would be to insert a paragraph break or manual line break after the previous line of text, then use the ADVANCE field to move down the page by, say, 96 points (assuming a 12pt line height).
