Franni,
This is very helpful; it is always reassuring to know when one is not alone
in suffering the slings and arrows of outrageous software.
I'll pass it on and thank you from him and from me.

I use Pagemaker - but sorry can't suggest anything useful on this
especially as to why adding a page solves his prob. My experience with it
is that you can never use the expert kerning feature for the damn font you
happen to want to tweak at the time... it goes along with the usual stuff
about the most pain in the butt client picking the most untweakable
font.....

No one has attempted to answer this and it does seem puzzling. The
effect can be seen in a small pdf from http://2lazy4u.us/fonts.pdf (I
think he still has it up)
As you see the top sample is normally kerned; the bottom one looks as
though all the letters ahve had their kerning cut by about half, so the
letters run into one another. Any clear idea why this might be so?
Someone on another list has found a problem in Pagemaker. He writes:
''When I try to kern either, Pagemaker tells me that it is a True Type
font and cannot be kerned. When I checked all of the paragraph and style
settings everything is the same. Oddly enough if I add a page and try the
font it shows up right. ''
I have no experience with Pagemaker, and wonder if anyone has some advice
for him?
TIA
