Hi, I would really love to be able to set the vertical alignment for regular paragraphs. I enter this request regularly in the FrameMaker wishlist: https://www.adobe.com/cfusion/mmform/index.cfm?name=wishform
However, the idea with the table is very good. I will test it later today. If you have to take into account that translations have less or more lines than your source text, you cannot use a static solutions. Thanks for this tip.
