2006-09-22 Thread Bodvar Bjorgvinsson
When comparing new and old double sided documents, I get the option of placing the change bars on the "Side Closer to" or "Farther from Page Edge". but in each case, it works just as the left or right side options: For "Side Closer to Page Edge" the change bars are placed on left side of the column

On the Right and Left master pages, check the position of the text frames. Try shifting the text frame on the Right page slightly to the right, and on the Left page shift to the left. When FM places the change bars, it uses the margin width to determine which side is closer to/farther from the

Thanks, I will try this on Monday. I was wondering whether the bleeding tabs text frames were interrupting the regular behaviour. Have a nice weekend. Bodvar On 9/22/06, Ian Hawkins wrote: > On the Right and Left master pages, check the position of the text > frames. Try shifting the text frame

Hi Steve, It seems that some people have problems if it's OFF, and some people have problems if it's ON. I guess there are so many variables and settings involved that it's hard to know how any given system will behave without trial and error. It would be nice if fonts were not so complicated.
