    Hi Azamat,

    Please try the following using GREP Find/Change:

    Find what:
    (\d)\x{0020}([\u])

    Change to:
    $1$2

    Where “\x{0020” is the unicode value for a normal space. If you want any space than use “” instead of “\x{0020}” without quotes.

    Let me know if it solves your problem.

    Creating a font for Arabic is not as easy as creating for English. In Arabic the characters take shapes as they combine with characters before and after. There are lot more free fonts available on the net for Arabic. In case you need a font of your choice, I suggest you better consult some Arabic Font Developer.

    some urls:

    Hi jstern,

    I’ll suggest you to choose GREP. Let me try to explain:

    As you said, you have a paragraph style associated with the running heads. That’s good, half of our work is done.

    Just follow the steps:

    1. Create another Character Style and name it DISAPPEAR with settings like:
    Font size: 0.1pt, Horizontal and Vertical Scaling: 1%, Character Color: None

    2. Edit your paragraph style for your RH

    3. Go to GREP Style panel, click on ‘New GREP Style’ button

    4. Select the DISAPPEAR character style for “Apply Style:”

    5. Click on the Text field next to “To Text:” and delete the default \d+ and write a simple code: [\[|\]]

    Remember it is Open square bracket,slash,Open square bracket,Pipe sign,slash,Closing square bracket, Closing square bracket

    6. Click OK to exit out the Paragraph Style Options

    That’s it !!!

    I would like to have the feedback.

    Sorry for the mess up. But I’m now pretty confident that the colour profile of the PNG is not matching with the InDesign colour setting. Have you tried exporting it to a PDF. Try it and let us know the results whether it is same as PNG or it differs. Also try saving the PNG as JPG or Tiff, it will add some bytes but the results will be better.

    The only thing that is creating a problem is definitely the colour profile.

    Go to Edit > Keyboard Shortcuts…

    Create a New Set…

    Select Object Menu from the drop down list under Product Area:

    and in the Commands: section, scroll down until you find:
    Pathfinder: Exclude Overlap

    Select it and type your shortcut under the New Shortcut: and then click on Assign button.

    and finally click OK button to exit the Keyboard Shortcuts dialog box.

    B, As David said there seems to be some problem with the color settings. Also try turning OFF the Colour Settings in InDesign:
    Go to Edit > Colour Settings > and select “Emulate Adobe InDesign 2.0 CMS Off” under the Settings: drop down list.

    Also try saving the file as jpg or tiff and see if the problem persists.

    Something to note down:
    PNG images are RGB itself.

    Sorry, Houston, I didn’t get it. Could you please explain in detail, what exactly are you looking for?

    Hi Ramesh and welcome to the forum.

    I’m not getting your view. Why do you want to vertically align when the text is center align.

    Secondly, if all the text needs to be vertically align then why not opt for Justify-Left alignment. And if you want to keep the text in the center of the page or box, then just add some left indent.

    Would it be possible to send some screen shots, pdf to examine it more deeply.

    Lastly, you cannot upload images or files directly on forum. Therefore, you have to upload them to some third party file transfer system such as hightail, flicker, dropbox etc and just paste the link or url of that uploaded file.

    Hi Matt, I think you can raise your query to the Applescript forum on https://macscripter.net/

    Let see what they have in their boxes.

    Page Tool will definitely help here. But how about creating three facing pages, shuffling and keeping them side by side. The first two pages can be presumed to be a single wide page. I think this trick is in much practice before InDesign CS5 or in other application where they do not have the Page Tool.

    It seems to be a limitation. There must be some ways to save Tables as styles with all the information including size,width, height, number of rows and columns.

    @Adobe, please make a note of it.

    Hi Scott, I don’t think that GREP Style will create any problem with your existing paragraph styles. If they do so, you can easily remove the GREP Style. As Dwayne said, there seems to be some problem with the formatting. It would be a good idea to upload the file, so that we can have a look.

    As the forum doesn’t allow uploading of files or snapshots, you have to upload your file using some third party file transfer system i.e. Hightail, flicker, dropbox etc and have to paste the url on the forum.
