Hello,
so we have a very specific problem with our CD typeface at work. It behaves differently on Mac and Windows, even though it’s an Open Type typeface, purchased from Linotype.
We work with a baseline grid set to 6,5pt. We usually set our texts in 9/13 pt, which means that we have two baseline grid lines per one line of text (this is sometimes very practical from various reasons).
This is the issue:
When I set the top of my text box to align with the first line of the baseline grid, the first line of text jumps down to the second line of the baseline grid. If I move the text box a bit up, like two clicks, the text jumps back to the first baseline grid line. This doesn’t happen on Mac at all, and we use both systems, so for example if a Indesign document was initially designed on the Mac and then opened on Windows, the text would jump down, staing there when saved and opened again on Mac.
The up and down jumping “boarderline” is with the baseline grid set to 6,749 (not jumping) and 6,750 (jumping).
This might be an issue concerning the type itsself and we are inquiring this as well, but maybe there are some Indesign issues here too?
I would be grateful for all ideas, thank you
Ilija
