Brian,
I had heard that too but then after hearing they were doing a rewrite
to improve
text and fields I was wondering if they were going the MLTE route. I
think MLTE
is based on ATSUI and if they used ATSUI it would allow kerning &
tracking.

FWIW, I believe the Rev text engine is something written
specifically for Rev to be cross-platform and does not plug in to
platform specific engines such as MLTE. So the upside is that they
can pretty much do whatever they want (and have it work cross
platform). The downside is that Rev doesn't always automatically
inherit OS-specific features.
This may have changed in the past couple of years, but as far as I
know that's the case.
Thank you for the info and code. I wasn't the one who started
this thread and from your
statement about wrecking any text parsing I will hold off on
justification for now. But it is
important to know if the Rev Team decides to use Apples MLTE text
engine you can be
assured Kerning and Tracking will not ever be made available so it
is time to forget it or
write your own text engine using and extension or whatever.
