Howdy,

I just installed 0.99 and downloaded the ThreeKingdomsCh1 document.  
By making sure \Verticaltrue was un-commented I got vertical layout.  
Didn't have to add the /AAT to the \V definition. This is with  
10.4.3. Of course I have no idea why this works on my system or  
doesn't work in Stephen's case.

Good Luck,
