Re: FM - tags and text boxes

Karen, Thanks for your reply, but no, I am not asking about how to change the look of the dotted lines, because they don't show up on the final copy (at least I don't think they do). I am asking about how to manipulate, i.e. resize, them. I would rather see them so I know where they are. I

Expressing Fractions with Offset Numbers and Division Symbols

Does anyone have any advice on how to express fractions with offset numbers and division symbols? I'd like them to appear as they do in Microsoft Character Map or Quark (ex. ¾). Your suggestions would be greatly appreciated. James Dyson Associate Technical Writer KVH Industries, Inc. 50

Re: Expressing Fractions with Offset Numbers and Division Symbols

First of all, you should use the fraction slash by typing Control+q Shift+z. Then you can apply character formats to the numerator and denominator. The numerator format will use the Superscript position and the denominator format will use the Subscript position. You set the specifications for

Re: Expressing Fractions with Offset Numbers and Division Symbols

Here are some other solutions: You can buy dedicated fraction fonts from Adobe, Monotype, and others. They will usually match a particular typeface; for example, Helvetica Fractions matches Helvetica. Or, if you use a typeface that has a corresponding Expert set, you can use the Expert font

Re: FM - text boxes

When I switch to Master Pages, the dotted boxes look different from those in Body Pages, so there is no point in even trying to change them. I have no idea how one works with them. As someone pointed out, 5.5 is a pretty old version and doesn't have the same level of support. First, back your

Re: Cross-references to Figure/Table captions work in FM, but not in PDF

Hi John - I have no explanation but I do have a possible solution. When crerating the PDF, turn on Create Named Destinations. You shouldn't have to do this for internal xrefs but it solved the problem for a client of mine. Pat Christenson On Jul 11, 2006, at 2:52 PM, John Posada wrote:

You can change the text frames on the Master pages till they're the way you want them to be, then force the body pages to use them. To do this, in Body page view, select Format menu Page layout Master Page Usage). But definitely save first! Cheers, Rebecca Merry Foxworth [EMAIL PROTECTED]

FM - tags and text boxes

Hi Merry First, back your file up before you play with text frames on Master pages. You can get unexpected results. Also, remember that changing the text frame on a master page changes it for all pages that use that master page. You can change single body pages (in the same way as I describe
