    before={\blank[extractdistance]       %[extractdistance,force] causes spurious overfull \hbox warnings
   	\setupnarrower[left=1.5pc,right=1.5pc]
   	\startnarrower[left,right]

\noindent},

     after={\stopnarrower
  	\blank[extractdistance]

\indenting[yes]}]

%%%% In footnotes

\defineblank[footenoteextractdistance][2.7pt]

\definestartstop[fnextract][
     before={ \blank[footenoteextractdistance]
   	\setupnarrower[left=1.5pc,right=1.5pc]
