part of first header is missing

Alastair
We are getting a consistent problem with the headers on the first page.

The left and right contents appear in the header, but not the center. The footer is correct (has left center and right contents).

The css we use is below.

@page 
{ 
    size: A4;    
    font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
    font-size: 10pt;
    margin : 22.4mm 25.4mm;
	padding: 3mm 0;
        
    @top-center 
	{
        content: string(document-copyright);
		vertical-align: bottom;
        border-bottom: black solid 0.75pt;
		padding-bottom: 3pt;
    }
	
	@bottom-center 
	{ 
        content: counter(page);
		vertical-align: top;
        border-top: black solid 0.75pt;
		padding-top: 3pt;
    }    
}


@page:left
{
    @top-left 
	{
        content: url("../images/imglogo2.gif");
		image-resolution: 396dpi;
		vertical-align: bottom;
        border-bottom: black solid 0.75pt;
		padding-bottom: 3pt;
    }
        
    @top-right 
	{
        content: string(document-author);
		vertical-align: bottom;
        border-bottom: black solid 0.75pt;
		padding-bottom: 3pt;
    }    
	
	@bottom-left 
	{ 
        content: "Revision " string(document-revision);
		vertical-align: top;
        border-top: black solid 0.75pt;
		padding-top: 3pt;
    }  
      
	@bottom-right 
	{ 
        content: string(document-title);
		vertical-align: top;
        border-top: black solid 0.75pt;
		padding-top: 3pt;
    }
}



@page:right
{
	
	
    @top-left
	{
        content: string(document-author);
		vertical-align: bottom;
        border-bottom: black solid 0.75pt;
		padding-bottom: 3pt;
    }    
	
    @top-right 
	{
        content: url("../images/imglogo2.gif");
		image-resolution: 396dpi;
		vertical-align: bottom;
        border-bottom: black solid 0.75pt;
		padding-bottom: 3pt;
    }
        
	@bottom-left 
	{ 
        content: string(document-category);
		vertical-align: top;
        border-top: black solid 0.75pt;
		padding-top: 3pt;
    }

	@bottom-right 
	{ 
        content: "Revision " string(document-revision);
		vertical-align: top;
        border-top: black solid 0.75pt;
		padding-top: 3pt;
    }
}

So the document-copyright string is not appearing in the top-center margin box, but only on the first page? Is it appearing on subsequent pages? How early is this string set in the document?
Alastair
The string is set just after the document heading and copyright text that appears on the first page.

Yes, it appears on all subsequent pages.

I'll try moving it to just after the <body> tag.
Alastair
I've moved the string declaration to before any actual text, and the problem is fixed.

Thanks for the guiding questions!
