David Blatnerit is possible, but unlikely. If it were me, I would make them prove that your PDF looks like this in their version of Acrobat. I have a hard time believing it. (If they are using something that is not Adobe Acrobat, I would be worried.)
It is definitely possible that the image is corrupted or the PDF is the problem. But this seems very unusual.
David BlatnerWow, that is a bad error! I agree with Jongware that this is a RIP error, not you. But I will ask: Does the PDF look correct in Acrobat? Does it look correct when they open it in Acrobat? If so, and if they are printing from the PDF, then it is definitely their error because “the pdf is the proof.” They should match that, yes?
David BlatnerRivkah: Yeah, it’s strange that way. Non-postscript desktop printers tend to expect RGB data, so they print better that way. See Chris Murphy’s old comments here: https://creativepro.com/printing-to-inkjets-from-mac-can-cause-color-shifts-in-cs3.php
David BlatnerDavid Blatnerdleather: Contact me offlist at david [at] indesignsecrets.com if he gets it working and is willing to share it, and I can post it on the blog so the maximum number of people can learn about it.
David BlatnerThat’s what the Tabs panel is for (type > tabs). More here: https://creativepro.com/tab-leaders-part-1-separating-columns-of-text-with-dots.php and other articles on the site.
David BlatnerInDesign checks the folder the document is in first; then it will check to see if there’s a Links folder inside that folder. If it can’t find a link there, it will look (and this is the important part) in all the folders you have linked to recently!
So if you did a Relink to an image that was sitting on your desktop, it will remember that you might have other images on the desktop.
I believe if you quit InDesign and restart it, it clears its memory of previous folders, though.
David BlatnerHey, that stroke order looks familiar! (My wife used to teach high school Japanese.) :)
There is no way to make different strokes scale at different amounts. It’s just shrinking the whole picture. One option: copy the strokes from Illustrator and paste them into InDesign, where they’d be editable InDesign paths.
David BlatnerSorry, table and cell styles cannot “remember” size information.
David BlatnerMasood, that is brilliant! Well, actually, that blog post recommends using auto-numbering… instead, use bullets!
I wrote it up here:

David BlatnerNot sure if this helps, but one of these?

David BlatnerInDesign cannot do that by itself, but maybe with ActiveTables from dtptools? Not sure.
David BlatnerMy guess is that you’d need to create a character style that applies the “Roman” formatting. Then apply that to the roman text, then clear all the local formatting and apply the paragraph styles.
