Helena, another thought. Try actually printing a sample to Acrobat's print driver if you can. See if it embeds properly then. If it does, it could indicate a preferences or even an installation issue....

Hi, I am working on a file where I have spreads in which I want blocks of text to on both sides of the spread to line up at the top, (and bottom as much as possible), so I've been playing around with...
View ArticleRe: InDesign CS6 10-up for business cards? Where is the template?
Wow. The top one looks like it has an emboss effect, or possibly inner shadow, applied to the type. What do they look like in Acrobat? For Word, yeah, you can't use a PDF (stupid Word), but you can...

Not going to happen if you REALLY want things to stay aligned across the spreads unless you edit the text. I say that because I count a three-line space in a four-column layout. You also want to get...

Personally, I don't see what is wrong with the end of the spread. A couple things, you have a blank paragraph at the end of the 4th frame. Anything you try is going to attempt to act upon it as well....

Hi Mike I have no idea how to print a sample to Acrobat's print driver but I will have a go tomorrow. Also I can try a font OTHER THAN Arial, in small caps, and see if that works. Cheers Helena

Thanks Mike. Where are you seeing a blank paragraph in the 4th column?
View ArticleRe: Difficulty manipulating text box height
At the bottom you can see the end of story or paragraph marker. At least that's what I think the blue thing is in the screen shot. Eyes are failing, though. By the way, I evidently edited out the fact...

Like I mentioned, the export to PDF is correct--they look identical. In general, exporting from a PDf as an EPS is a god-send. I still throw PNGs at the Word users though. Some EPS files look really...

Yes - definitely try another font, but also don't forget that you can use a character style to apply your small caps. Then, instead of actually using the small cap button, just reduce the size of the...
View ArticleIncrease negative tracking beyond -1000 in CS5?
In order to create some special mathematical symbols I need to overprint several characters. I used to be able to accomplish this in QuarkXPress using negative kerning of as much as -2 Em. But...
View ArticleRe: Increase negative tracking beyond -1000 in CS5?
The first question that comes to mind is why you don't reverse the order of the characters and use a positive kern, but I played with with inserting the non-joiner special character between tow glyphs...

Try the IndyFont demo :-) (http://forums.adobe.com/message/5268780). This demo (there is a Full Version on its way!) only allows you to create a single character per font, but you can create as much...

Peter, I thought that the 10-up used five columns? Could you be mistaken? I came up with this, following your steps. I set the Offsets as you explained, used the Step and Repeat feature, and even set...
