Hi Peter,

Yes, I meant an edge length of 0.16". This is the size that would not change the leading. An other solution would be to increase the font size of the body text. But that would have other disadvantages, for example more pages when printing.


I understand your argument, but I'm stuck for a solution. 15 pixels wouldn't allow a useful image, but then again, I'm not a fan of icons mixed in with text in the first place. Maybe a cross reference to one of a set of icons positioned at the end of a chapter would work? Perhaps a 2 column table with icons and descriptions of their functions, "out of band" so to speak.

If you work with cross references pointing to the end of a chapter, reading the text will be cumbersome because the reader has to jump back and forth. Then I would prefer larger icons that have to be placed in the first line of a paragraph as I already mentioned. Or, the icons are placed to the left of the text which will then be indented.
