    Hi Carinam

    It has been supplied by one of the publishers we work for, I will have to look into whether it is available anywhere.

    Sorry thats not much help but I don't want to be distributing something that is not legal to do so.

    https://forums.adobe.com/message/3561004 this discusses the issue a bit and suggests the standard corner script but I haven't tried it at all, it may be relevent.

    You still need to set the anchor point in a line of text.

    Indesign will not do this for you.

    Cut or copy F2 then place the text tool at the point you want the anchor to be then paste. The object (F2) will now be in the position it's anchor settings dictate.

    It sounds like, from your description, that you haven't pasted the group into your text. It will then be an inline object until you go into the Anchor menu and make it a custom anchored object. Done. Now what you can do is copy and paste the newly anchored group into a different text box and it will keep the same anchor settings. Or why not click on that group and give it an object style, a style that holds those anchor settings.

    Now you have a group made up of a text box and a pic box that you can fill with new text and new pictures.

    I would suggest setting the type in Indesign rather than photoshop, it'll give you alot more control over all aspects of the process.

    Thank you for that David, that is kind of obscure, there is a sort of logic to it but its fuzzy.

    Once again thanks Jongware too.

    We jumped from CS3 to CS5 here so this is kind of new to me, I just figured out how to change polygons with some keyboard finger ballet.

    If I were wearing a hat I would take it off to you.

    I had been looking as I knew it had to be there somewhere.

    Thank you Sir.

    It would be nice to be able to define the space numerically.

    I find that ID is very robust and can handle alot, ie. alot of pages and alot of placed images, I regularly work with long documents and never have any issues. If you are happier then split it up and use the Book feature to keep it all synced as well as easing output.

    My bad, its the morning and my coffee is just kicking in.

    That is a dilemma, are there alot of these eps files? Is it out of the question to edit them in Illustrator?

    Yes there is!!

    Go to ink manager, which is off the Swatch panel, and check the spots to process box at the bottom.

    Done.

    You can check it by opening the seperations preview, it should show just cmyk as the inks used.

    This is an annoying side effect of going from a CS3 document to opening it in CS5, I see it has been noted in various places, and particularly troublesome when you open a legacy file which has rounded corners as a prevelent design feature that has not been saved as an Object style :(.

    I have also come across the corner bug that now (in CS5) won't allow me to have a radius corner of say: 2mm on a 4mm deep frame without any flat and so looking like a capsule shape. It always adds a flat between the two corner radius! Making it impossible to make the capsule shape without the flat in between the corners.( I hope my explanation is clear). My work around for this was to create a new capsule shape (with no corner effect) and replace the now flat ended capsule shape.

    Any advice on this would be very welcome

    I seem to recall seeing a plug in called Links Manager (not what it's called but can't recall it's name, not very helpful I know) – will research that
