Re: FrameMaker 8 Automatic Letter Spacing Broken?
Hi Mike, Yes, I can verify this behavior with FrameMaker 8 on Windows XP. Rick Quatro Carmen Publishing 585-659-8267 www.frameexpert.com I posted this topic a couple of days ago with no response. Probably I made it too complicated. :) Can someone please tell me if they see the same problem with FM8? 1. Click in a sample body text paragraph. 2. In the Paragraph Designer, set alignment to justified. Extra space is added between words to make the text line reach the right-hand margin. It works as expected. 3. Now, in the Advanced tab of the Paragraph Designer, check the Allow Automatic Letter Spacing checkbox. Some lines in the paragraph jump back from the right-hand margin, and are no longer justified! (You may have to change your zoom level to see it, and it's more obvious in narrow columns than wide ones.) FM applies letter spacing to words on some lines, and those are the lines that lose justification. Justification and Automatic Letter Spacing used to work together. Now, only one or the other works. Is anyone else seeing this? Mike Wickham FrameMaker 8.0p236 (trial version) Windows XP Pro P.S. I have DisplayUsingPrinterMetrics=On in maker.ini, but the problem exists whether it's on or off. PDFs match what I see on screen. ___ You are currently subscribed to Framers as [EMAIL PROTECTED] Send list messages to [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe send a blank email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] or visit http://lists.frameusers.com/mailman/options/framers/archive%40mail-archive.com Send administrative questions to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Visit http://www.frameusers.com/ for more resources and info.

I hope Adobe fixes this soon. The feature is important enough to me that I'm going to have to hold off on buying the FM8 upgrade until then.

This bug would seem to indicate that there's still lots of spaghettic code remaining in FM8. Given the short time between Beta testing and the release date, it seems likely that, even if this bug had been discovered during Beta testing, it would not have been fixed in the released version. Let us hope this bug is not an omen that FM8 will repeat the FM5.5 fisaco (the first full release produced by Adobe). That version had more bugs than a termite-riddled house.
