Hello Framers,
Anyone from Adobe monitoring the list? I got the email below from a client of mine and can confirm what he is seeing. Something has changed from FrameMaker 12 to 2015 that is causing the issue below. I have a sample file that I can forward if someone wants to take a look at it. Please let me know if you have any questions or comments. Thank you very much. Rick Rick Quatro Carmen Publishing Inc. 585-366-4017 [email protected] I would dearly love to have your feedback on a problem I'm having with FrameMaker 2015. In Version 11, I successfully developed numbered bullets, and as part of my research for this, I remember contacting you, which you may or may not recall since it's been so long. Numbered bullets are constructed as two paragraphs. The first paragraph contains just one character (a bullet), in a font called BigBullet2.ttf. That first paragraph is a run-in paragraph. The second paragraph starts with a tab, followed by an autonumber, followed by another tab. The autonumber is white. Setting the spread in the first paragraph to -42% enables me to achieve the effect of having the white autonumber center over the black bullet. But with FrameMaker 2015, the spread feature when used in conjunction with a run-in paragraph no longer works properly. At -42%, the autonumber hangs out at the right edge. I tried increasing the spread, and was able to improve the position slightly. But the maximum response is at -53.3%, which is not enough negative spread to center the number. To illustrate: In Frame 11 I have produced a whole array of technical manuals with numbered bullets in them. The prospect of now replacing them with plain bullets is daunting and of course undesirable. Of course the best option is for Adobe to fix the spread command/run-in command so they work together the way they used to. Do you happen to have any influence with Adobe to ask them to fix the problem? I have attached the Frame file, in case you have the time/interest to experiment and find a solution.
