/* Africa Press Network — printed broadsheet on white stock.
   Blackletter for the nameplate only; it is decorative and low-legibility,
   so it never carries a headline or body text.
   The three columns are explicit grid tracks with the vertical rules drawn
   as borders on the tracks themselves — no negative margins, no absolute
   positioning anywhere in this theme.
   No photography: the only <img> are the /about/ portrait and the
   citation card's source logo. */
