      I want to make a “SAVE UP TO 100” text line with UP above TO and in a smaller text size so they have the same height as the rest of the text.
      I have made one paragraph style and 3 character styles (UP, TO and SPACE) the SPACE style is moving TO to the left to align UP and TO.

      The problem is that I can’t assign the SPACE style to a space character.

      Anyone with a idea how to solve the problem.

      Managed to achieve it (more or less) with UP and TO at half the point size of the rest of the text, no space between them, baseline shift to get UP up and TO down, then kerning between the P and the T adjusted as far as it will go (-1000).
      That’s not quite enough in the fonts I was using, but adusting the tracking and horizontal scaling of the UP and the TO is just enough to shunt them into the right position.
      Is that what your styles were doing?

      Regards, Chris.
