Hello Morgan, > [...] Customize Layout, > I don't see an option for Combined Fonts
Unnecessarily (imo), Adobe restricted the availability of some Asian specific commands to be visible only with an Asian system locale. You can activate the CombinedFonts command by opening your "fminit\configui\cmds.cfg" file with a text editor. Find "Command CombinedFonts", change "<AsianFonts Yes>" to "<AsianFonts No>" and restart FrameMaker. Now you are able to create or change the CombinedFont definitions of your document via "Format > Document > Combined Fonts". This is also possible for some other commands like InsertRubi and RubiProperties. Note that if you import the char or paragraph formats from one document with specified combined fonts into another document (without combined font definitions), the combined font definitions were always automatically inserted. This is also true for just copying some selected text from a document that has a combined font applied. *But* if you already have combined font definitions in your documents and want to change those definitions globally in all documents, there's apparently no way to achieve this. FrameMaker won't change existing (equally named) combined font definitions on format import. Unlike with an Asian system locale, there's no (visible) "Combined Font" checkbox on the Import Formats dialog. Anyway: This checkbox is actually there - it's just not visible. Therefore, you obviously cannot select its property. The funny thing is: If you press the "Select all" button on the import dialog (and manually unselect some or all other visible checkboxes), the changed combined font definitions *will* be imported! (I'm sure you can also change the definitions of your combined fonts globally by global replacements in the MIF files.)
