Hello Lance, We will need to investigate this issue, as you did not disclose how or what was involved in the creation of the static artwork even though the piece composed correctly with FusionPro as you indicated. Please collect and forward for analysis. regards, Alex -----Original Message----- From: Lance Wente [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, July 07, 2008 4:18 PM To: FusionPro Users Forum Subject: [fusionpro] RE: Problem with Preview
Alex, I am not talking about tweaking text to exactly match. I know that is pretty much trial and error. What I am talking about can be seen in the following two links from my original email. Ignore the text and just look at the backgrounds. In the second link you can see the two diamond graphics are perfectly circular, as they should be. They are on the static pdf. Now, look at the first link. See how the parts of the diamond graphics inside the frame are offset from the parts outside the frame? This is a screengrab with preview turned on: http://www.flickr.com/photos/lancewente/2646199075/ This shows the above file when output: http://www.flickr.com/photos/lancewente/2647028840/ So, if what renders inside the text frame with preview is not accurate to what is actually underneath it, then using preview for lining up elements is useless.

How much leading, kearning was used in the initial template before creating the pdf? As you see, simply overlaying a text box on top of your existing static image of your text does not necessarily guarantee that it will align automatically with the text variable. You will need to go to the "Paragraph" option in the "Variable Text Editor" in the FusionPro text frame and check these settings. -Alex -- Lance Wente Woolverton Printing Cedar Falls, IA 50613 319.277.2616 800.670.7713 www.woolverton.com +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+- FusionPro 5.0 Now Available!
