MemberI believe you can synchronize the master pages by using InDesign’s book feature.

MemberI always have the type tool active and positioned in a text box (no text selected). Then I export.
If one of the arrow tools is active instead, I don’t believe you will see the option.

MemberThat makes it tough if it’s printing for some folks and not others.
I personally think some computers don’t like some fonts. We had several jobs in our shop a few years back where they refused to print from one certain machine. And it was the same font in question. I gave up troubleshooting it, and just put a note in the job folder not to work on it from that machine.
I know you don’t have that option as it’s the client having issues.
Did you contact the font maker?
I know it may be too late now, but it’s possible you may have to use a different font.

MemberThat makes it tough. I take it everyone is using postscript printers.
Did the font imbed okay in the PDF?
Dwayne Harris
Member^^You’re right. It seems they don’t want us to get rid of them.
I hate it when applications install fonts.
Dwayne Harris
MemberThis is why I never change my operating system immediately after release.
Dwayne Harris
MemberWell, you’ve already cleaned out your library font and user library font folders, so there goes my first suggestion.
The best way to find out where they are is to create a new ID document and type a few lines. Apply the font in question and select “fonts” and click the font and click for more info. It should give you the path to where the font is located. And once you find that folder, you can bet that the rest of those fonts are in there as well.
I too hate it when Adobe installs those fonts all the time. I have spent more time going to all the computers in my shop creating “Disabled Fonts” folders and moving them into there.
Even a simple update will re-install the damn things.

MemberWell, if you and your colleague can print it okay, is it possible it’s the client’s printer that is the problem?
Are you (and they) printing from the ID file or a PDF?
Dwayne Harris
MemberDoes it print okay?
My first guess is that your ID display performance is “typical.” Try changing it to “high quality,” and see if that helps.
It’s under the toolbar “view.”

MemberDavid beat me to it.

MemberHey Loki
The best solution is to have a separate paragraph style sheet with spacing above. For example, if your leading is 14 point, your separate paragraph style sheet would have 14 points space in the “space above” box. Or if you only wanted a half line, your paragraph style sheet would have 7 points above.
Dwayne Harris
MemberWhat exactly are you trying to do? What do you mean by line breaks? Do you mean breaks in the lines of a paragraph, or a line break between paragraphs?
Dwayne Harris
MemberThe only short cut I know is to hit “t” after you have selected the box. But that only selects the type tool and doesn’t position your cursor anywhere.
And wouldn’t a script take longer than simply clicking with your mouse?
I realize some folks prefer keyboard shortcuts instead of using the mouse, but while I do use some keyboard shortcuts, I still use my mouse a lot.

MemberI’m glad you got it to work, Nicole. :)
Dwayne Harris
MemberNicole–
I’m not sure what you’re trying to do.
Do you want “Areas of Expertise” to center over the rule and not be flush left?
Do all the heads center over the rule (which is full column measure)?
I thought you were using tabs for the rules, but I can’t tell because your invisibles are turned off.
If not tabs, set the alignment of the head to center, and use the rule below (which will go full measure).
