Awful Letter Spacing After Replacing a Font

[Reng, Dr. Winfried]

Hi Nancy,

I had to change all fonts last week. I also noticed that the letters
were too densely packed. However, everything was fine, after
I closed the file and opened it again. I did not re-import formats
or updated formats.

If this would not help in your case, I could imagine that also
a MIF wash might have helped.

Best regards

Winfried

In which MIF attributes are the old font names lingering?

This really sounds like a bug.

Re: Awful Letter Spacing After Replacing a Font

How about importing formats to all files in the book with the remove
overrides option checked?

This seems like a bug in the Font pod.

Awful Letter Spacing After Replacing a Font

[Nancy Allison]

Hi, all.

I've just discovered the nifty Fonts pod in FrameMaker 10 (we jumped from 7.1 
to 10). Just in time, too, since we've been told to change the body text from 
Times New Roman to Arial.

I'm using FM 10 in a Windows 7 environment.

I replaced all instances of Times New Roman in a chapter with Arial. The change 
was instantaneous and the paragraph designer listed Arial as the default font 
for each affected tag. Wowee! I see that I can also do this replacement across 
ALL open book files. So I can change Times to Arial in the blink of an eye, 
across the entire book.

However, the letter spacing in the replaced text is awful. 

To fix it, each paragraph tag that has a changed font has to be reapplied. I've 
used the Global Update within a single file for this, but it still has to be 
done tag by tag, file by file, doesn't it?. This will be a tedious process for 
a 100-page document distributed across 7 files.

Is there a way to do this faster? Within FrameMaker's native capabilities, if 
possible . . . 

Thanks.

--Nancy
