    @Raphael Thank you for your reply. I got to 14.35 in the video, but it seemed to jump. I’m assuming this is where you introduce us to Peter’s script?! I’m still trying to get my head round Peter’s instructions running the script, but your video was very useful along side it. Do let me know if there’s an uncut version…. and thank you, there is definitely a fix to my problem here.

    @FRidNGE Thank you. I managed to get your idea working. However, it looks like it adds a character into the text. I’m more interested in adding kerning. I use Emsoftware Docsflow, with editors contributing and editing to the text in Google Docs. I’m forbidden to edit the text in anyway in InDesign as it causes conflicts. Still, thank you for your time.

    Thank you! I have however used a cheat. By changing my superscript style to the same font used in the body. I ran the script, which obviously worked, and then changed the super style font back to the sans. Thank you so much for your help.

    Thank you, this really helped! I managed to get Peter’s script to work. However, there is the small issue with the superscript set in a sans serif, and body copy in a serif, two different typefaces. I wonder if there’s a way for a generic kerning data file to exist to catch all typefaces for this purpose?

    @FridNGE
    Thank you, it worked a treat. However, I should have probably mentioned I pull in live text from Google Doc using Emsoftware DocsFlow, which in my workflow forbids me editing the text in InDesign. This GREP unfortunately inserts a character space between the ” and superscript. Raphael’s kerning advice is more of a solution, although, still not quite there… yet!

    Thank you so much!
    There’s one issue, sorry!

    Please see screen shot https://drive.google.com/open?id=18wkLz6-Is9rOF7VFyC1CjRdwvxTrQtJ8

    Rather than the dimensions being attached to the text that goes before it, ie the top caption in the screenshot (top text box) show’s the dims attached to ‘…panel,’, the dims should start on a new line. So both forms of dimensions should start on a new line, if they don’t fit as a group. I hope that makes sense?! You can see when the caption box is made narrow (bottom text box), the text disappears.

    Thank you Obi!
